Overview
The Corrosion, a catastrophic plague, has decimated the Astryan continent. Meanwhile, the continent of Avaris, with its resilient nomadic tribes, is on the verge of annihilation, having so far escaped the horrors wrought by this malignancy. Eline, a wandering Soul Whisperer, valiantly fights against the menacing forces converting the once vibrant flora, fauna, and humans into grotesque entities. A chance encounter triggers a dormant power within her that could be key to reversing this devastation: the ability to harness the Corrosion present within herself.
However, salvaging a doomed world is no simple endeavor. With guidance from Ysoris, her unexpected mentor, and Kanta, the shaman prince of a lost tribe, Eline must confront fierce foes that block her path.
