Kael awakens in a dark cavern with no memory of who he is or how he got there. With only a mysterious sword at his side, he is drawn toward an ancient archway inscribed with glowing runes. As he steps forward, eerie whispers hint at a cycle that has played out before. Beyond the archway, Kael faces a shadowed figure—a warrior clad in black armor wielding a blade of pure darkness. The entity claims to know him, but Kael cannot recall their past. Forced into battle, he struggles against an enemy that seems untouchable, its form shifting like smoke. Only when he follows an instinctive pull toward the runes does he uncover the truth—his opponent is bound to the shadows, and striking at them weakens it. With this revelation, Kael triumphs, but victory comes with more questions. The trial was only the beginning. As he steps through the next archway, he knows he must uncover the truth of who he is, why he was brought here, and what fate awaits him beyond the darkness. A tale of lost memories, ancient cycles, and an impending destiny begins…
