Home of Undead dead

As Nyx wandered through the shadowy alleys of Nethercrest, a faint whisper pierced his senses, leaving a shiver in its wake. Strange symbols etched into the cobblestones seemed to glow with an unearthly light, leading Nyx down a path he couldn't quite comprehend.

In the depths of the night, Nyx's dreams were haunted by visions of a cloaked figure, its features obscured by the darkness. A voice as cold as the grave echoed through Nyx's mind, whispering cryptic messages of fate and servitude.

Who was Death?

Why did he rule their world?

Nethercrest, home of the undead dead, a land where the line between the living and the dead is thin and ancient ruins hold the secrets of forgotten gods.

Nethercrest is ruled by Death.

Death's presence in Nethercrest is deep and complex. Death is the central figure, intimately connected to the realm and its inhabitants. Death's purpose revolves around maintaining the delicate balance between life and death, overseeing the transition of souls, and maintaining order in the afterlife.

Death is unseen and unheard.

The world is divided into two regions, Shadowfall and Luminara.

Shadowfall is the realm shrouded in eternal darkness, where shadows hold ancient secrets and the whispers of the dead echo through the land. It is a place where dark magic thrives, and enigmatic beings harness the power of the shadows to wield formidable abilities.

Luminara is the realm bathed in eternal light, where radiant energies flow through the land, nourishing life and growth. Luminara is the realm of purity and enlightenment, ruled by beings of light who embody the virtues of wisdom and compassion.

In Nethercrest, magic users come in many forms, each with unique abilities tied to different aspects of the realm. As well as Necromancers, who tap into the powers of death and shadow, there are also Lightweavers, who harness the energies of light and purity. Lightweavers are skilled at manipulating light to heal, protect and bring clarity to the world. Their magic is associated with hope, renewal and guidance. Necromancers are practitioners of dark magic who specialise in communicating with the spirits of the dead and manipulating the forces of death. They are deeply connected to the afterlife and can harness the energy of departed souls for various purposes. In this world, necromancers often serve as intermediaries between the living and the dead, using their powers to communicate with spirits, raise the fallen, or delve into the mysteries of the underworld.
