The Outcast: The Shadow of The Wall

"As the Supreme Commander of The Wall, my duty is clear: to hold back the threats from the south—mutant monsters, ogres, cyclops, or... hopefully not... the return of the orcs. The kings and lords of Middle Earth do not care. To them, we are just a bunch of 'Outcasts,' exiled criminals and soldiers pushed to the margins. That’s fine. It's better if they stay out of our way. Corrupt politicians rarely care about real security." He looks down at the Outcast barracks below, where the central headquarters commands the entire Wall, separating the south from the main continent. Wisps of smoke rise from the kitchens, carrying the scent of salty, stale soup. The Outcasts atone for their sins or suppress their grief through dangerous missions in exchange for a few gold coins, following the rigorous standards set long ago. Such is life at The Wall. "I, Oldman, am not a religious man. But I interpret the legacy of past eras as a reminder: The world has never truly been at peace. The evil forces of all ages—fragments, orcs, or dragons—will always lurk. Humans, dwarves, elves, whoever they may be, could end up killing each other, driven by cunning deceit. And now, the only barrier holding back the southern threat is The Wall... and us, the Outcasts. Perhaps history will remember us as nameless heroes, or perhaps it will forget us. But as long as I stand here, I will not allow the monsters from the south and other darknesses to spread across the continent again." "I am Oldman... In a world that has cast us out, we stand amidst the darkness. We have no land, no name, only this path. We are the shadows behind this wall. We are the forgotten guardians of the world. We are the Outcasts, and we will endure, or die on our path."

Seven enigmatic gods stand as guardians against forces far older—and far more terrifying—than any mortal can comprehend. Yet, even these divine protectors are not what they seem; their power is borrowed, their motives inscrutable, and their protection tenuous at best. Beyond them lies something darker, something that defies definition—"Something That Should Not Be Known." Enter Evelyn Veylan, a young woman thrust into a life she doesn’t fully remember aboard a pirate ship navigating treacherous waters between two vast continents.

Her memories are fragmented, her identity torn between who she was and who she has become. Haunted by glimpses of a former life and burdened with powers she barely understands, Evelyn walks a razor’s edge between heroism and monstrosity. With each decision, she inches closer to uncovering truths too dangerous for mortal minds—and risks losing herself entirely. Will Evelyn rise above the chaos to carve out a future for herself and her crew? Or will the weight of forbidden knowledge drag her into the abyss? Dive into a narrative that challenges the limits of courage, trust, and humanity itself—all while unraveling the mysteries of a world born from one of gaming’s most immersive universes. Prepare to set sail across uncharted seas, confront ancient horrors, and discover what it truly means to defy destiny.
