Welcome to Morvahen. It’s hot, it’s deadly, and unfortunately, it knows you’re here.

You didn’t ask to come. You don’t know why you’re here. But the sands are whispering, the sun won’t shut up about ancient prophecies, and something called a “reaper” is probably lurking just out of frame.

Choose your origin — desert nomad, exiled rebel, suspiciously polished noble — and start shaping your tragic little hero journey before the world decides to bury you in it. This isn’t the full story. It’s the beginning of the beginning. The part right before things get weird. Or violent. Or both.

Features:

  • A sunburned hellscape

  • Six distinct origin paths (play as someone who’s seen some things, or someone who pretends they haven’t)

  • Buildable relationships with characters

Try not to die before the story gets good.

Interesting start! Best of luck with the story.
Might I suggest adding a theme with more muted colors in the future, though? This bright orange and yellow really strains the eyes.

This is really interesting, and I can't wait to read more.

I think there might be a bug, when I chose to be from the Verdant Plains (Farmers and healers), it said I came from the Crimson Citadel. All the others work fine though (even the Crimson Citadel)
