An ancient, sentient book known as The Codex Umbralis drifts through time, seeking those with curiosity and a thirst for forbidden knowledge. When a reader speaks the right (or wrong) words aloud, the book awakens and pulls them into a realm where legends walk in flesh and claw.

Here dwell five ancient beings, each tied to the myths of their lands: Kitsune, Long, Kelpie, Basilisco, and Nahual.

They are not your enemies unless you choose them to be. Some seek wisdom, some seek freedom, and some seek to test the worth of the mortal who has entered their world.

You are an ordinary person with an extraordinary curiosity for myths, legends, and forgotten stories. While researching ancient folklore in a hidden library, you discovered a mysterious book bound in strange leather and marked with symbols no scholar could identify.

After reading an unknown passage aloud, the book awakened and pulled you into a magical world where legendary creatures exist in both beast and humanoid forms.

Though you have no supernatural powers of your own, you possess intelligence, adaptability, and a strong desire to understand the unknown. Your choices, courage, and ability to build trust with the creatures of this realm may determine whether you can return home or become part of the legend forever.

Your goal is to find a way back home, uncover the secrets of the legends, and decide whether you will leave this magical realm... or become part of its story.
