Orbis Tenebrarum

In the twilight of his storied career, Byrt Tenebrae, once a steadfast Captain of the Royal Guard, has traded sword and shield for a new calling: leading his family, 136 loyal households, and the ambitious Viscount they serve into an untamed frontier. Far from the kingdom’s gilded halls, this hardy band seeks to claim the vast, resource-rich expanse that could secure their realm’s future prosperity—rich veins of ore, fertile wilds, and treasures long whispered about in ancient maps. But the land is no empty prize. Beneath its breathtaking beauty lurks peril: ancient shadows stir in forgotten ruins, hostile forces watch from the horizons, and the very earth itself seems to guard its secrets with deadly intent. As Byrt ventures deeper into the unknown, he must draw on every ounce of his battle-hardened wisdom to protect those he holds dearest—his kin, his comrades, and the fragile hope of a new beginning. In a world where every harvest could be their last, join Byrt Tenebrae on a gripping journey of exploration, survival, and unyielding duty. The frontier promises fortune… but only the strong will claim it—and live to tell the tale.
