Answer the call...

Про цю гру

You were a hero once, but could you be again?

The sleepy town of Hwen promised peace, but it was not meant to last. Your fragile peace is shattered when a familiar face arrives with a plea that pulls you back into the life—and the wounds—you left behind. It’s time to step into the boots of a weary, former hero.

Do you rise above the ashes of the past, or will they shape your future?
