Rites of Wintermoon

Beneath a Sky with Obsidian Wings

Blessed Be The Blackened Throne
A macabre silence engulfs the chamber as the eyes of the dead peer from the shadows. The throne, once proud, now stands tarnished, a monument to a fallen empire. On it perches a figure shrouded in darkness, their presence hidden. Whispers murmur through the air, legends of power and annihilation, forever linked to this profane place. The air is thick with the scent of decay, a reminder that even in darkness, life perishes.
