In the shadow of Elgilithgorg, where ancient kings forged empires from forbidden fire, exile is the only mercy for the cursed. Malmorthael, a leper haunted by the screams of the dead, bears scars deeper than his festering flesh—a vow unbroken, a love slain, a power he dares not unleash.

When a hidden prophecy stirs the mountain’s heart, summoning him to reclaim a throne lost to slithering horrors and a slumbering Alphir, he must lead a fractured band of warriors into the abyss. But the engensis chamber holds more than secrets: a living abomination, birthed from stolen blood and science, that hungers for the very souls who awaken it.

As ulir stalk the fog-choked wilds and Narag hordes swarm from cracked earth, alliances shatter, and betrayal coils like venom in the veins. To seize the chamber’s power is to embrace the urmat—the forbidden becoming that twists man into monster—and risk unraveling the fragile threads of fate itself.
