Undermarch

The Arasynian Empire and kingdom of the Aerie Coast share a strained peace on the northern continent of Alasia, each protecting colonial claims to a wealthy frontier. The Empire holds sway on the mainland, but with Aerie's expansionist Pirate King harrying Imperial ships on the open seas, the stalemate appears headed for confrontation. Against this backdrop of looming war, a scribe has absconded with an ancient text pointing to the resting place of an artifact of immense power: a tablet inscribed with the true names of Creation that legend claims can bend nature to man's will. A sect within the order that protects the oral tradition of the Words of Creation seeks the tablet. The quest to attain it will delve to the roots of the world, where power intersects prophecy, with epic consequences for an orphaned boy and his sister. Welcome to Undermarch, where Creation seeks a second chance!
