A crown buried, not destroyed

The old monarchy fell after attempting to bind the forest’s root-network into a permanent source of power. The kingdom survived; its history did not.

The Hollow Crown

Official records describe the Crown as a ceremonial relic. Spirit testimony, root carvings, and forbidden archive fragments suggest it was actually a living interface between the royal bloodline and the deep forest.

The Night of Closed Bells

On the night the capital fell, every boundary bell stopped at once. Roads disappeared, entire districts were overgrown within hours, and witnesses remembered incompatible versions of the same event.

The erased dynasty

Several rulers were deliberately removed from surviving genealogies. Recovering their names changes certain spirit encounters and reveals why the present crisis has begun.

The player’s oath

You begin as an unaffiliated oath-carrier able to formalize promises recognized by old magic. Breaking those vows is possible, but the world remembers.
