Can Marian find a way forward or is salvation already out of reach?

The past and present collide as Marian’s struggles with her place in the Church come to a head.

Through Ravenna’s questionable guidance, she begins to glimpse a path forward—one paved in blood. But with the Redeemer revealing a godly side, Marian must confront a dark realization: Is there truly no one in the Church worth saving?
