Here begins the first telling of the "Lords of Light and Shadow", wherein is recounted the "Echoes of the Blight"...
It starts, as such things often do, not with a roar, but with a creeping silence, an unravelling of the familiar world. In the shadow-haunted land of Ardinia, a sickness festers, born of the fetid heart of the dark entity Morwen. They call it the Blight - a creeping dread that steals the light from eyes, twists flesh into mockeries, and leaves villages like Oakhaven hollowed-out husks haunted by the shuffling remnants of those they once held dear. This is no common plague, but a deeper, ancient corruption gnawing at the roots of the world.
Young Elara, orphaned by this nightmare, flees the grotesque transformation of her own kin, thrust from the simple warmth of home into a world teetering on the precipice of an age of darkness. Her flight is a desperate scrabble for survival, her only comforts cold indeed: a shard of obsidian, black and smooth as a raven's eye, humming with a disquieting resonance, found near the ill-omened Whispering Mines; a sly, four-legged companion whose twilight fur seems to drink the shadows; and burgeoning abilities - a startling swiftness, senses that pierce the gloom, a worrying kinship with the very darkness she runs from - that feel less like gifts and more like grim necessities on a perilous road.
Driven north by whispers of sanctuary, her path winds through lands scarred by monstrous things warped by the Blight's touch and shadowed by figures of ill-intent. For the Blight is not the only darkness stirring. Ambition casts its own long shadow, and men like the calculating Lord Nox of Netheril Empire, a man cloaked in rumour and cold steel, ride the currents of chaos, guided by whispers of power that echo from forgotten depths. Kingdoms stir, ancient powers are invoked, and the fate of Ardinia hangs upon a threadbare hope.
Pursued by horrors both twisted and terribly cunning, hunted by shadows in human guise, Elara must delve into the mystery of her own strange heritage and the shard she carries. Is it a weapon? A key? Or a seed of the very corruption she battles? For in this darkening world, where ancient evils resurface and the very wilds seem to hold their breath, survival is a brutal trade, and the line between light and shadow is thin as a blade's edge, easily blurred, easily crossed. Can even the most resilient soul withstand the echoes of the Blight, or is she destined to become another whisper in the encroaching darkness?
Lords of Light and Shadow: Echoes of the Blight is the daunting commencement of an epic fantasy saga, a journey into a world scarred by dark magic, where the path is fraught with peril, choices carry the weight of destiny, and the struggle for survival is etched in grim realism.
