Synopsis

The Bone Cage is Phil Kelly’s End Times short story. Black Library calls it a bridge between Sigmar’s Blood and The Return of Nagash. It is not a numbered volume of The End Times. The Return of Nagash is book 1 of that series.

Holy men and women of many faiths are carried through Sylvania in a cage of living bone. The jacket names the Grand Theogonist of the Sigmarite church and the Fay Enchantress of Bretonnia among them. Mannfred von Carstein leads the procession. The prisoners try to learn where they are being taken. The jacket says the prisoners attempt an escape, and that treachery from within may undo them. The Grand Theogonist is not given Volkmar’s name on the page.
