Tell me what you think?

Arficrus is a massive continent spilt from its cousins of the east and west, D'shavros and Odessina, it is at the centre of all trade, due to it's rich deposits of resources. Yet unlike it's sister-cousins Arficrus is also the landmark of many political factions, kingdoms, villages, tribes and so forth but the superiors of this continent are as follows, from the weakest to the most powerful...
Gafh'a, Conagos, Ng'witee, Eurag'a and finally the birthplace of the ancestors, South D'evitus. (Yeah, need to work on the names there, anyway).
Arficrus is strewn with the utmost grim marshes, black and dense with death, the harshest of deserts, where no rain falls yet the Men of Sand dwell, and the most lush of jungles and forestry, birthed with mystery, magick and monsters. It is upon this land that monsters such as the dead ones, the Howling Dargnauh, the twin-headed black steeds, the Hashie, the Miovinna, the w*** of the darkened plains are found amongst many others, much more deadly, much more ancient...
Not without it's near infinite landmarks, Arficrus is full of places of power so ancient, so malevolent that none dare thread onto, the 13 Decaying Towers of the Great Primal, V'ihcon, the Pillars of Nevio, the Ancestor Seer, the Desert of Black Sand, birthplace of the earth maggots of Q'ilna, the rotting goddess. And like it's cousins, it is the place of powerful factions, such as the Observors, inquiring old man that use magick and science to learn and conquer with those who ally with them, the W*** of Ba', who manipulate even the greatest of kings to do their bidding and hold power,
the Sisters of Gialina, a powerful covenant of feminist witch-priestesses, sorceresses and diplomats that have each one of their members at the every side of the great kings, the Brothers of the Stones, sorceror-knights, templars, warriors, sorcerors of the utmost discipline and teaching, all these factions known by the lands are under the 12 Magi, from which are the greatest warriors and magick users known, these 'hold' or once held balance until they all fell to their own greed, power and lust for flesh...
It is in this land that we find our protagonist, Asad Nassor, a warrior once under the teachings of the ancient and mysterious faction of the Forgotten, yet that is what they're called, none know their name, if they even have one... Asad in now just another well known sellsword, kings, politicians and peasants, all have had him under their employ for the right price and like any of his work he knows many secrets, many teachings, many deaths yet he still remains neutral.
Arficrus has it's secrets and struggles, poverty, famine, death and wars continuously waged it's comical, yet there's a war that far bends and alters the minds of man, beast and all of creation for the gods and ancestors have waged war onto each other and Arficrus is just another pawn in their game. Man now needs to stand with who he believes is their higher entity, be it a god or an primal ancestor and now man seeks the knowledge of their kings, yet their pleas fall on deaf ears as these men fall to lust, to w*** and greed, their kingdoms turning dry and bloodied wrenched.
An amongst the species of man, semi-human and otherwise another race it seems that xenophobia corrupts them, they all believe the others are to blame. Amongst the factions, power is what they all seem to want, the corrupt and pure all now seem to be the same and want all power, yet this power is none like any other for it's said that 9 months from the Day of Rapture, a woman would fall pregnant, an in her womb would born a primal ancestor whose power would bring about the eternal worlds end, with that of the cosmic plain and netherword. It is than that now our story truly takes place for 7 months have passed, pregnant women from all corners of the world have been taken, slaughtered and sacrificed in hopes that the child would not be born.
Asad is than paid by a mysterious employer who wishes to see a simple barmaid/prostitute taken from her simple village and be protected from all those who wish to dare try and harm her, and also to bring her to a designated location. Upon saving the women from being r*** by a knight-warden of her village Asad discovers she's pregnant by a unknown father and that she wishes to keep her child (coincidence?), an unwilling Asad must now defy a declaration set by the kings, gods, ancestors and factions and protect her from all dangers that come their way.
Strangely enough, Asad finds himself taping into an ancient unknown magick (unknown tribal markings appear on his skin) whenever he's with this woman, he finds himself being sought after by the most powerful factions, kingdoms and so forth, each with their agendas, their motives and lust for power. Can this woman truly hold the primal child that is to destroy all and if so, what must Asad do?...

Sounds more like an outline or summary than a story to be honest. Also, I would add some spaces between the paragraphs (sorry, it's a common formatting issue across the Internet).
