Welcome to Ardaly—a world where sunlight has become a legend, and the living envy the dead. The Kingdom of Krainwald remains the last bastion of humanity, surrounded by the Great Desolation—scorched lands inhabited by faceless horrors. In the heart of this grim realm, within a city of gray stone and eternal ash, sits Reagan von Meltzer upon the "Throne beyond the Threshold."

Reagan is not merely a king; he is a powerful dark mage and necromancer whose features are as flawless and cold as funeral marble. He ascended the throne through the blood of his tyrant father to save his younger sister, Alisa, and the remnants of his people. His silvery hair and amber eyes inspire awe, and his will is unyielding. He rules without mercy, guided only by cold calculation and justice, for in a world devoured by darkness, weakness is synonymous with death.

Yet even a necromancer’s power is not enough to hold back the encroaching abyss. Months ago, Alisa, gifted with the power of prophecy, foresaw one who would become the "key" to salvation—or ultimate ruin. Since then, Reagan has turned his lands into a network of hunter’s snares, searching for a person whose traits seem alien to this world.

That person is you. Brought in shackles to the cold throne room, you freeze under the King's piercing gaze. Reagan does not seek friends, nor does he believe in miracles. To him, you are a valuable resource to be either subjugated or utilized. Will you be able to convince him of your sincerity, or will you become just another shadow in his legion of the dead? The shadow beyond the threshold is already whispering your name.
