In a world shrouded in mystery and fear, the existence of the Abominable Gods remains a secret known only to a few. Their return to the realm was referred to as Nightfall, a prerequisite to apocalypse, and Chroniclers were the ones tasked with finding ways to delay the inevitable for as long as possible.
Little is known about these enigmatic deities. Their title alone serves as a warning, and only fools dare to advance their research, lest they accidentally summon these malevolent entities.
One such fool brought the Nightfall, and after thousands of years in which the realm was gradually healing, the threat of another Nightfall starts showing its fangs. So, as the last of his kind who had already witnessed the power of destruction this event could bring, the Chronicler tried his best to stop it.
As his plan backfires horrifically, the Chronicler is forced to find more subtle ways to deal with the problem. Thus begins his last attempt to correct his mistakes and hopefully he won't doom humanity this time.
In a different corner of the world, a poor artist wakes up one morning with magical powers and memories that don't belong to him, urging him to find the golden statue of an ancient smiling goddess.

The Forsaken Spire
A single, towering city rises from a vast, lifeless wasteland-a remnant of an ancient war that shattered the world. The Spire is surrounded by a powerful storm barrier, keeping the horrors outside at bay. It is said that beyond the storm, the land is overrun by Wraithborn-once-humans mutated into relentless, armored behemoths that feed on the energy of the living. The city's elite defenders, known as the Stormguard, wear specialized gauntlets that allow them to channel the energy of the storm itself, generating electrical blades and explosive force to combat the Wraithborn. Their training is brutal, as only those who can withstand the gauntlet's power without being consumed by it survive. When a young Stormguard recruit uncovers an ancient map hinting at a second, hidden city beyond the storm, everything they thought they knew about their world is thrown into question. Are they truly the last survivors? Or has the Spire's ruling council been keeping a terrible secret for generations?Complete
