27 days before his vows, legendary hero Hendigo faces a choice: dismantle a shadowy elven-abduction ring—or become its weapon. Will you preserve honor, or let power corrupt the man you once were?
A CRUSADE TICKING TOWARD DOOM
Every hour tightens the noose:
1. The Wedding’s Shadow: Hendigo’s impending marriage looms as a deadline. Fail, and the abduction network may sabotage it—or weaponize it to trap him.
2. Elves in Chains: Uncover a labyrinth of kidnappings tied to a clandestine cult. Each rescued elf reveals darker truths about the organization’s influence in power circles.
3. Anekin’s Burden: His mythic reputation draws allies… and enemies. Use his status to negotiate—or become a marked target for assassination.
CHOICE IS THE CORRUPTION
Your path defines who falls with you:
1. The Savior’s Path: Hunt the kidnappers openly, rallying rebel elves—but risk alienating political allies essential to his wedding plans.
2. The Traitor’s Bargain: Surrender to the cult’s promises of power. Learn their secrets, but your every action erodes your honor and strains relationships.
3. Unseen Consequences: Allies and foes alike react to your choices. A saved elf might betray you; a killed foe could spark a war.
FALL OR RISE?
Your actions reshape both world and legacy:
1. Skills of Duality: Choose combat mastery (for the light path) or manipulative magic (for the dark)—or hybridize them to unpredictable effect.
2. Moral Decay Visuals: Characters’ perceptions of you shift visually. Trust erodes, faces harden, or glow with reverence—or horror—as corruption creeps in.
3. Endings of Fire or Frost: Will you stop the cult but lose your bride? Ascend as its leader, wedding ring a symbol of treachery? Or carve a third path through blood and sacrifice?
