The Cross Stitch
Sönderfall was never much to look at¸ but as one of the only outposts on the trek between Tveland and the Western Kingdom¸ travelers came to rely on it for a brief respite from the road. Until a week ago¸ when rumor reached Schleswig that Sönderfall had vanished overnight.
According to prophecy¸ Sönderfall's disappearance predicts the arrival of a being from Outside of existence. A creature who seeks to puncture this already-fragile reality. An enemy of HE¸ an enemy of all life in the dying world. Trapped in a dungeon beneath King Fathmu IX's fortress¸ you are given one way out: find the missing town¸ stop this being¸ and freedom will be yours.
