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 constantly cross, You possesses a sight that no one else has. You don't just see battles. You see what rises above them… a purple void burning the fabric of the world, a corrupted mana that no one understands. At twenty-one, you have become one of the most feared knights of the 43rd Battalion. Yet, it is not combat that drives you, but the truth behind these dark flows. When a human bastion is attacked in the dead of night, you are captured and dragged to the icy court of the Queen of the Dark Elves. 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 oracles of the kingdom have ceased to see—as if something were stifling their visions. Instead of the blade, you are given a challenge: pay for your truth with an expedition to the source of the corrupted mana. By your side: Vylia Noctis, the Queen's sister—cold, suspicious, ready to cut you down if you lie. If you lie: you die. If you tell the truth: the war devouring 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 pungent smell of ash, iron, and damp earth seeps into your nose. Your muscles are sore. Your armor is dented. Voices echo outside—Dark Elves, discussing in low voices as they prepare. In a dark corner of the room, the glint of forgotten metal reflects. A memory returns to you: the purple mist rising above the bastion, like toxic smoke, powerful and sentient. Something has changed. Something is watching you. A clatter of boots approaches. Heavy, precise steps. And just before the door opens… you feel that void again. Vylia then says: "I do not agree with the Queen, but show us what you have seen, human. One wrong move, one lie, and I'll slit your throat. We will start with the bastion where we captured you."
