In a world where the sun sets only to awaken the terrors of the night, demons known as corelings emerge to wreak havoc. These malevolent beings, fueled by hatred and wrath, have forced humanity to retreat into fortified shelters as they struggle to survive the relentless onslaught. Amidst this perpetual struggle against darkness, brave souls rise to combat the demons and seek a way to reclaim the night for humankind.
Three protagonists find their paths intertwined in a realm fraught with danger. Each of them grapples with their own demons—both literal and metaphorical—as they discover their unique strengths and destinies. With every passing night, the stakes escalate, and the battle against despair becomes a catalyst for personal transformation. Their journeys reflect the pursuit of hope and courage in a world determined to snuff it out.
As the narrative unfolds, the creation of wards and ancient magic materializes as a pivotal element in humanity's struggle. The tale explores themes of friendship, resilience, and the power of belief while providing a rich tapestry of vibrant characters and gripping encounters. In this atmospheric adventure, darkness is a constant companion, but the light of human spirit continuously fights to shine through.
