Urskar has long carried the quiet burden of leadership over his humble village, a scattered collection of homes nestled in the wilderness just beyond Northvale’s borders. To his people, he is more than a leader—he is the hunter who keeps them fed, the shield who guards their children, the voice they trust when fear creeps too close.

 

But now, the land itself has turned against him. A creeping plague seeps through the soil, warping plants into twisted mockeries and driving beasts into fits of violent madness. Crops wither overnight. Once-familiar forests whisper with unnatural hunger.

 

When the corruption reached the very edge of his home, Urskar made a vow: he would not wait for doom to come. Leaving behind the people who depend on him most, he steps into the wider world for the first time—not as a hero, but as a desperate man with everything to lose.

 

Yet fate is rarely kind. The truth behind this corruption may stretch far beyond his quiet village. To save his people, Urskar must stand alongside new-found allies and confront forces that could consume not just his home, but the world itself.
