A rainy afternoon drips slowly down the glass,

Time curls up in corners, refusing to move. The clouds press low, heavy with unspoken sighs,And boredom hums softly like an old, tired tune. Yet in the hush, a secret calm begins to bloom, Even dull hours whisper stories, if you listen

Fortress of Helvargard

The Fortress of Helvargard is a prison carved into the heart of a frozen mountain, lost among the peaks of the northern Kingdom of Vardheim. For centuries it was considered the final destination of traitors, forbidden mages, and enemies of the throne. No prisoner has ever escaped... or at least, that's what the legend says.

Helvargard was built over three hundred years ago by order of King Eldric II, following the War of the Summoners. At that time, dark wizards and heretics were a constant threat to the kingdom. The monarch feared that ordinary prisons could not contain them, so he ordered the construction of a fortress where the cold itself would serve as jailer.Hundreds of workers died during its construction: avalanches, hunger, and a cold that burned the skin. It is said that the souls of the builders became trapped within the walls, feeding the icy whisper that can still be heard in the corridors.
