Overview
Nestled between
towering mountains and a
treacherous coastline,
Shadowcrest Valley is a land of
ancient ruins, shifting allegiances, and secrets buried beneath centuries of blood and bone. It is a place where power is never absolute, and every throne—be it of stone, gold, or shadow—rests upon the fragile foundation of fear and ambition.
The civilized world clings to its fragile order, yet the untamed wilds beyond city walls remain filled with dangers both natural and arcane. The Valley has seen empires rise and fall, leaving behind ruins haunted by the echoes of forgotten gods and curses yet to be unraveled.
The whispers of the past call to those bold enough to seek them. But in Shadowcrest Valley, knowledge comes at a price—and often, that price is paid in blood.
