This is but your final warning, avert your eyes. Beyond these words is naught but shadow and the maddening glare of unraveling realities.
…
No? Still here? Very well, if you insist!
When we first spoke of the mighty Kurn, we briefly mentioned that you will be contending with the consequences of their bloody history. The lore buffs among you may recall the devastating conflict that took place in the western reaches of the Erulan empire and culminated in the summoning of the Voice of Ch’thon, the Loghorrean! As you have learned, such evil can never truly be contained. Its tendrils seep into the land like a disease, warping it beyond recognition.
While what remains of the Erulans is embroiled in the grim dawn, or glorious dawn depending on your point of view, the Kurn are still reeling from that ancient war. Their land, and their people, are still paying the price for…recklessness? Or desperation? The myriad Kurn tribes are scattered, their people no longer united under a single chieftain. Some have even turned completely away from the old gods, finding their prayers answered by a darker power.
This power now whispers of a dark reckoning. A choir of malevolent voices ravages mortal minds and leaves them begging for the release of death. But among the maddening cries there is one underlying truth: the void will not be denied.
These are the heralds of the beginning of the end times, a promise of boiling seas and crimson tides when he who dwells below creation reclaims his place among the stars. But before they can usher in the dying god, blood must flow. And who better to let the rivers of the Asterkarn valleys run red than a sin from the past…
