Edict of Ash

In the war-torn Republic of Veridia, a mild-mannered clerical officer, Emil Voss, processed deportation orders for the Sanctum Inquisition. Decades later, in a peacetime tribunal, he insists he was merely "following protocol." As the court peels back layers of bureaucratic routine, it uncovers how the Inquisition’s holy crusade masked systematic extermination—and how Voss’s quiet compliance became the engine of atrocity. This is a story of the banality of evil, where religious fervor gilds the grim machinery of murder.
