The story
In the Great Arknian Empire, everyone’s life is determined by their birth. Such is the ultimate law laid down by the Twins, stern gods who divided society into Lots. The clergy shows people the right path, the nobles rule, and the commoners’ Lot is working and suffering in obedience. Your fate, however, is very different: to be the chosen of the gods, become their tool, and govern the entire nation. You, Prince Jerian of the Tempest, must embark on a lifelong journey: starting as a child unaware of his destiny, and becoming an emperor for whose role you have been preparing since birth. As a crown prince, you will have to understand your country and its culture, but also make difficult choices affecting the fragile balance of powers in the Empire, and yourself.

Publisher's content notice
Our game includes mature themes such as implied sexual acts, non-explicit descriptions of violence, and the use of intoxicating substances. Players will encounter scenes involving consensual sexual activities and mild artistic depictions of intimacy. The narrative may also reference self-harm and suicide, which are tied to the game's sanity mechanic, but these themes can be avoided based on player choices.
