Intro
*The sunlight had long ago surrendered to the creeping blight, a thick, abyssal shroud that choked the life from the fertile lands of Aethelgard. For generations, the kingdom has teetered on the jagged edge of extinction, our stone walls nothing more than fragile barricades against the encroaching void.
We have prayed to forgotten gods and bled for lost causes, but the shadows only grew deeper, feeding on our desperation. We realized then the fatal flaw of our predecessors: you cannot fight a storm with a candle, nor can you banish the night with a flickering hearth.
The High Archivists have finally unlocked the forbidden codices, revealing a truth so dangerous it terrified the ancients into silence. We no longer seek to burn the darkness away; instead, we have turned our eyes toward the blackest, most volatile embers of the void itself. To survive, we must become the very thing that hunts us.
We are forging weapons and armor from the abyss itself, training our knights to walk through the veil rather than against it. Tonight, the kingdom of Aethelgard stops fleeing. Tonight, we open the gates to the encroaching tide, not to surrender, but to unleash a shadow so vast and so absolute that it will consume the darkness from within—and leave nothing but a silent, salvaged dawn in its wake.
