Infos

A kingdom veiled in perpetual twilight. A princess haunted by the sins of her ancestors. A curse that whispers of betrayal and promises doom.
Lyria exists under a suffocating mist, a sentient shroud born from the wrath of forgotten gods.  For Princess Isolde, the last heir to the shadowed throne, the curse is more than a legend; it's a living nightmare. She relives the poisoned kisses, the clandestine meetings, the cold calculations of her forebears, each a seductive temptation to repeat their fatal flaws.  Worse still, the curse heralds Lyria's chilling demise: a creeping frost that will crystallize the kingdom into a macabre mausoleum.
Her only guide is the spectral echo of her mother, Queen Elara, trapped between worlds, urging Isolde to defy the whispers and forge a new path.  Her sole confidante is Sir Kaelan, a disgraced knight seeking redemption, his loyalty unwavering amidst the court's venomous intrigues.  Together, they embark on a perilous quest to find three keys, scattered across a land poisoned by ancient treachery.  Their journey begins in the Whispering Woods, where gnarled trees murmur forgotten secrets and a monstrous stag guards the first key, a chilling reflection of Lyria's corrupted nature.
But the whispers are not Isolde's only adversaries. Lord Morian, a nobleman whose charm masks a viperous heart, has forged a pact with a malevolent entity imprisoned within the Obsidian Lake, whispering secrets and manipulating the court. Lady Genevieve, an exiled sorceress wielding forbidden blood magic, offers Isolde a shortcut to power - a dark bargain that echoes the very sins she seeks to eradicate.
As Isolde confronts monstrous guardians, navigates the treacherous currents of the court, and wrestles with the seductive whispers of her ancestors, she uncovers a conspiracy far deeper than she imagined. The curse wasn't simply a divine punishment, but a carefully orchestrated plan, woven over generations by the entity in the Obsidian Lake.  Kaelan's past intertwines with this conspiracy, fueling his desperate race to uncover the truth before it's too late.
Isolde must choose: embrace the whispers' seductive power or forge her own destiny.  Her choice will determine not only Lyria's fate, but the fate of her very soul. Will she break the cycle of betrayal, or become another victim of the shadowed throne?
