The Obsidian Gate

Synopsis

In the realm of Aetherra, where ancient magic stirs and forgotten evils lurk, a fragile peace is shattered by the Increase of the The Veilmist (Cursed Fog), A sentient, memory-thieving fog that drifts from the Mirrorwood during Eternal Twilight. Induces hallucinations, disorientation, and temporal confusion—some vanish for years, returning unchanged. Navigated only with mirrored talismans and spirit-wards.. The fate of not just Elarion but the rest of Aetherra as well (Aurekhaal, Velmryn, Islareth, and Sulkaran too) rests on the shoulders of an unlikely band of heroes: a disgraced Verdantarii Centurion seeking redemption, a cunning SandBinder with a mysterious past, a young Soulweaver struggling to control her burgeoning power, and a wise, albeit eccentric, Velmyrn Marshland scholar. Their perilous journey will take them across treacherous landscapes, through haunted ruins, and into the heart of political intrigue and betrayal. As they race against time to find a way to close the gate, they must confront their own demons, forge unbreakable bonds, and make impossible choices. The path is fraught with danger, the enemy is relentless, and the line between hero and villain is blurred. Will they succeed in sealing the gate and saving Aetherra, or will the Veilmist consume all?
