Story

Abandoned centuries ago and later settled by mortals, this ancient century has been devastated by a mysterious catastrophe. As a member of an elven expedition sent to investigate, you awaken alone among the wreckage with fragmented memories and no clear understanding of what transpired.

Explore the remains of a fallen civilization where undead wander the streets, forgotten secrets lie buried. Recover lost memories, uncover hidden truths, and piece together the events that led to the city's destruction.

Through environmental storytelling, cryptic encounters, and optional discoveries, learn the history of a world shaped by conflict, ambition, and the struggle to find meaning in the face of ruin.
