The Lighthouse stands between the Mountains and the Ocean, with a view over every strip of land below. Every day, its beam tracks the Great Mirror through the sky, which reflects the light across the world below. One night, as the Mirror sets, the bulb gets cracked and broken - if a replacement can't be found, will the dawn never come?

Children of Ash
What would you do in a world without light? A world where only the moon casts its pale glow upon the endless shadows? A world where you don't decide who you are, but where your birth determines your fate. Where prejudice is not just a belief but a law, shaping life and death. A world where hunger is constant, where shelter exists only for those who can earn it-or take it. But what if there was more? What if beyond the darkness lay another world-a world of light, of warmth, of hope? And what if the price of escaping the shadows was higher than you ever imagined?
