Plot:
The forgotten Kingdom of Mortemire reappeared centuries later, seemingly out of nowhere, it was at this point that a young woman named Aryn awoke alongside the Kingdom, and surprisingly, she seemed unaffected by the unknown call.
With only an iron whip as a weapon, Aryn must make her way through the decaying streets and unravel the mystery that is the Kingdom and its calls.
