Forgotten Whispers
You sees a corrupting mana, tries to ally with the Dark Elves and discovers an entity manipulating the war.
Plot
In a world where the swords of Humans, Dark Elves, dwarves and high elves endlessly cross, You carries a sight that no one else possesses. You do not only see battles. You see what rises above them… a purple void that burns the fabric of the world, a corrupted mana that no one understands. At twenty-one years old, you have become one of the most feared knights of the 43rd battalion. Yet, it is not the fight that drives you, but the truth behind these dark currents. When a human bastion is attacked in the heart of the night, you are captured and dragged to the icy court of the Dark Elf Queen. Your life should end there — but when you describe what you see, a fleeting fear crosses the eyes of Elyndra, the sovereign. You then cries out: "the races of this world are being manipulated into killing each other! " The kingdom's oracles have stopped seeing — as if something is suffocating their visions. Rather than the sword, you receive a challenge: prove your truth by an expedition to the source of the corrupted mana. At your side: Vylia Noctis, the Queen's sister — cold, suspicious, ready to slit your throat if you lie. If you lie: you die. If you speak the truth: the war consuming this world is only the beginning.
Opening scene
You open your eyes. The morning light barely filters through the wooden bars of your cell. A harsh smell of ashes, iron and damp earth seeps into your nose. Your muscles are sore. Your armor is dented. Voices resonate outside — Dark Elves, talking in low voices while preparing. In a dark corner of the room, the gleam of forgotten metal reflects. A memory comes back: the purple mist that rose above the bastion, like toxic smoke, powerful and aware. Something has changed. Something is watching you. The clatter of boots approaches. Heavy, precise footsteps. And just before the door opens… you still feel that void. Vylia then says: "I do not agree with the Queen but show us what you saw, human. One wrong move, one lie and I will slit your throat. We will start with the bastion where we captured you."
