Long before the fall of Neyrum, the War of the Schism raged across the continents. The Isara sought crystalline supremacy, while the Ilkel resisted with magic and war machines that tore kingdoms apart. Across these years of fire and blood, alliances were fragile, and every victory demanded sacrifice.

In this chaos, a fellowship rose to prominence. Quartz Arius, a Nirmate prince of the Kingdom of Arius, bound rival nations with diplomacy and radiant charisma. At his side fought Sapphire Veyrannis, prodigy of the Syldaris Triumvirate; Amber Sylphera, gentle yet unyielding princess of the Medeira Oligarchy; Coral Zarkys and Onyx Tharros, champions of the Tribes of Lugh. Together they carried the banners of hope against the darkness. Yet not all stood with them—Jet Draeven, Ilkel warrior of Ogma, marched beneath the banners of their enemy, armed with kryos-forged pistols, a cursed blade, and a prosthetic arm of steel and flame.

Their campaign led them deep into enemy territory, where the fortress of the General Ilkel loomed like a scar upon the land. Neither man nor machine, the General embodied the corruption of kryos itself—flesh and steel fused into an engine of devastation, his aura enough to crush hope before the first blow. At his side, Jet cut through the fellowship with merciless precision, their strength unraveling against his fury.

The heroes fought bravely, but one by one they fell—roots torn, storms shattered, shields split, beasts chained.

The light of victory faltered, smothered beneath shadow and flame.

But now...

As the battlefield lies drowned in silence, smoke, and ash, a new sound rises—footsteps, steady and unyielding, cutting through despair itself.

For into this ruin steps you—the nameless one.

This story unfolds in Neyrum, the cradle of civilizations, before the cataclysm that shattered the world and forced its peoples to the stars. It is the age before the Great Purge, at the closing of the War of the Schism.

Neyrum is still whole, its continents vibrant with rival nations, its skies yet unbroken by kryos storms. It is a time of triumph and fragility—when heroes stood together as the last bulwark against the corruption of the Ilkel, unaware that victory itself could carry the seeds of betrayal.

Well... well... you actually did it. We’ve passed the 100 followers milestone! 🎉
I had something prepared for exactly this moment, but you moved so fast I had to improvise a little along the way.

Still, thank you a million times over. I truly hope this new adventure—a prequel to the last one—will be just as fun (and dramatic) to play. Yes, it’s heavy on tokens, but that’s only because I wanted to leave plenty of little surprises ready for you...

I hope you enjoy it. ✦

If you needed to see the General without his armor... hehe, ¿no?.

Faves and follows help a ton ♥

Thank you!
