Latest Release
The Sorcerer's Torch out now!
Darkness looms over the Nirum empire like a pall since the king’s death. Creatures of legend stir in forgotten corners, rumblings of civil war ripple throughout the countryside, and the moons draw ever closer.A young thief arrives in the capital, thrust into the intricate web of poisoned politics, his presence serving as the catalyst for an empire on the brink of collapse. As the ominous Moonweld approaches, his path crosses with a curious princess searching for meaning behind her father's death, a weathered wizard questioning his imperial oath, and a mysterious feline with an eldritch rebirth.Their journey will ignite a spark, one that could awaken the empire from its grim venality—or reduce it to cataclysm and ash.
