Result for "The Split" in Action & Adventure

Fleeing from a vengeful king has sent the former NPCs across Solium's borders, into the kingdom of Alcatham. As wanted fugitives, they head to the small farming village of Briarwillow, hoping to blend in, lay low, and avoid trouble at all costs. Unfortunately, Briarwillow has problems all its own, and its troubles quickly become theirs. If they hope to survive long enough to escape, they'll have to tackle an all-but-forgotten mystery buried at the town's border as well as seek the wisdom of a mysterious group of mages.

There are nine known realms, a world for each race, including dwarves, gnomes, and elves. In the middle rests Middang3ard. Each world knows the others. Each, except Earth. Humans long ago turned their backs on magic, throwing their stock into science and technology, their governments shielding the people from the reality of what was going on elsewhere. So be it. Humans were never very good at getting along with other races anyway. Then the Dark One appeared, threatening to overrun the nine worlds, starting with Middang3ard and ending with the humans' planet.   

Nearly a thousand years after the legendary wizard Aldulan’s death, his greatest mistakes have come back to haunt the world of Arioc. From the lightless depths, demons claw their way to the surface—led by Suggradath, King of Demons, who hungers for nothing less than the annihilation of humankind. As the armies of hell march, only a ragtag fellowship of wizards, warriors, thieves, and plainsmen stands between hope and oblivion.

The Starbreakers were heroes, until a tragedy broke them apart. Only now, years later, have they begun to make peace with each other. The rest of the world is a different story. There has been a breakout in the prison known as Oblivion, and now the worst of the worst have been turned loose on an unsuspecting world. Desperate to contain the crisis, the right hand of the king has called the disgraced Starbreakers back into service. After all, they were the ones who put most of these villains away in the first place.

A thousand years after Aldulan's mistake, the dead are marching and the world has run out of time. In Arioc, the great wizard Aldulan is remembered as legend. But the catastrophe he left behind is waking in the dark. Suggradath, King of Demons, has gathered an army of hellspawn to break into Termeydiun and drown mortal lands in blood. Against him stands an unlikely band: Gadras, a ranger with more courage than certainty; Ang Saroth, a deadly warrior carrying secrets of her own; wizards, thieves, plainsmen, and broken souls forced into a fellowship none of them asked for.

The war for Arioc ends in Malifess. Suggradath, King of Demons, has survived the impossible. Broken, wounded, and trapped in mortal flesh, he gathers the armies of Malifess for one final invasion of Termeydiun. The Holders have paid for every step of their quest in blood. Gadras Woundwing carries the worldstones beneath his skin and the terrible power of the Wish in his soul. Rayn fights to save a city already cracking beneath the weight of old sins. Ang Saroth and Wrait Setis face the monsters that have haunted them across the sea.

Gadras Woundwing, Ang Saroth, Wrait Setis, and the battered company of Holders sail for the Isle of Dusk in search of the pieces needed to rebuild the Clock of Aldulan. Without it, the coming war may swallow kingdoms, cities, and every fragile hope they carried out of the capital. But the Isle is no ordinary destination. Its shores shift. Its history rewrites itself. Beneath its haunted ruins lie worldstones tied to earth, wind, and fire, relics powerful enough to open the way to the abyss-or return a fallen god to power.
