Urgle

Abandoned at birth, the Brothers of the Ikkuma Pit know no mothers. They fend for themselves, each training their Little Brother to survive – until they grow into men and it’s time for their Leaving Day.

No boy knows what’s beyond the forest.
No Brother who left has ever come back.
Until now . . .
