Ahriman languishes on the threshold of space and time, adrift in a sub-realm of unknowable dimension and aspect. He has found it at long last: the ancient device known to the necrons as the Key of Infinity. This should be his moment of triumph – but he is not the Ahriman he used to be. Betrayed and lost, he is a solitary sorcerer, bereft of allies, standing amongst the smashed and ruined ephemera of his grand designs.

Ahriman vegetiert auf der Schwelle von Zeit und Raum und treibt hilflos durch ein Zwischenreich unbekannter Größe und Gestalt. Zu guter Letzt hat er gefunden, wonach er gesucht hat: jene uralte Apparatur der Necrons, die als der Schlüssel zur Unendlichkeit bekannt ist. Es sollte ein Moment des Triumphes sein, aber er ist nicht mehr der Ahriman, der er einst gewesen ist. Er ist verraten und verloren, ein einsamer Hexer ohne Verbündete, umgeben von den Trümmern seiner großen Pläne.

Das Unheil ist den Thousand Sons auf den Fersen. Der Rubrica-Zauber hat einen Fluch aus Feuer und Staub heraufbeschworen, der sie über die Grenzen von Raum und Zeit hinweg verfolgt. Die Geister der Rubricae verschwinden aus den Kerkern ihrer Rüstungen, während die lebenden Hexer nach und nach ihren Platz einnehmen. Getrieben von der Not, seine Legion zu retten, und im Streben nach Wiedergutmachung sucht Ahzek Ahriman nach der zeitverändernden Technologie des vergessenen Necron-Volkes, um die Vergangenheit umzuschreiben.

Es hat viele Jahre und unzählige Opfer gefordert, doch letztendlich ist Ahriman, ehemals oberster Librarian der Thousand Sons, doch nun Exilant und Hexer, bereit, die bedeutendste und wagemutigste Tat seines ganzen Lebens zu vollbringen.

Nichts Geringeres als die Wiedergutmachung seines größten Scheiterns, die Umkehrung des Rubrica-Zaubers, der seine Legion verdammte.

Ahriman, der größte Hexer der Thousand Sons und Erschaffer des Rubrica-Zaubers, der einst seine Legion zu Fall brachte, wandert weiter dem Pfad zur Erlösung oder zur Verdammnis. Auf der Suche nach einer Heilung für seine Legion wird er gezwungen, sich einer schwerwiegenden Frage zu stellen – war das große Ritual von Anfang an zum Scheitern verurteilt? Die Antwort auf diese Frage könnte ein mysteriöses Artefakt bieten: das Athenäum von Kalimakus, ein Grimoire vergessenen Wissens.
