01 THE APOLOGUE
A STORY WRITTEN AFTER DEATH

I remember the time before the Last Reclamation.

An aeon before the Harbingers betrayed their god to herald the rise of a forgotten King. An age when we fought against the flames of desolation and contended with Fate. Before courage was abandoned to an ashen grave.

Before I died—and awoke with an Undying curse.

Before the Awakening of Inathis.

“From the beginning,
our judgment is death.”

— From the Apologue of Inathis, written in the Cypher of Palinaris

INATHIS

Every empire
has a shadow.

The Empress presses her conquest onward while something ancient watches from within the Twilightmists. Beneath schemes, corruption, deception, horror, and humor lies a buried truth.

EREBAN

A citadel of stone—and perhaps a mausoleum to an Undying god.

THE PALLID KING

A forgotten ruler whose shadow reaches farther than history admits.

03

TWILIGHTMISTS

Where schemes, corruption, and ancient things lie concealed.

03 THE DESCENT
THE COMIC & THE BETRAYER

A tragedy
murmured
through the ages.

Caught between a sea of unrelenting isles and a citadel of stone, their fate becomes a song of kings and empresses, legionnaires and alchemists—murderer and Undying—bound to an inescapable fate.

Caught amidst schemes and conspiracies, corruption and deception, horror and humor, the story descends toward the Void.

From the beginning, their judgment is death.
