Earth is no longer the world of the living.
Thirty years ago, the mages burned it in their fury.
Now, the vampires reign supreme in blood and ash.
As for humanity?
What little remains is hunted through the ruins of a shattered world.
There is no hope for those who endure.
There is only the endless fight to survive.
To live is to suffer.
To resist is to die.
And to die is to feed the hunger of the tyrants.
To see Tyrdal breathe life into the world of Crux Umbra with this prose is something that will stay with me forever. His words always carry weight, and the way they capture the spirit of the Survivors means more to me than I can say. This is one of the moments I’m proudest of since joining World Anvil.
Thank you for this, my friend!
