Story
You are Lord Rothar Aercrest, once the ruler of Imberthale, now bound by a terrible curse after crossing paths with the malevolent wizard Gabrius. Unlike typical "chosen one" narratives, this tale is driven by human flaws—revenge, greed, and desperation. To reclaim your life, you must navigate a deadly feud between powerful sorcerers and find a way to break the curse. But Gabrius, master of the Black Grimoire, is no ordinary foe—death may only be a minor inconvenience to him.
