The Raven Thief

Born of the wastelands, Spheris Arnadel, a young skilled thief, finds himself subject to a twist of fate when he steals a powerful relic and becomes a Bearer — humans gifted with powers from the Gods. As a punishment for his theft, he is cast into an otherworldly realm alongside other Bearers, where he faces off against monstrous beasts and powerful enemies. Yet, in his determination to return to the Continent and save his dying mother, Spheris is hell-bent on surviving the abyssal world. Even if it means giving his body to the Dark God whose powers he had stolen... even if it means losing all of his humanity.

• Main Assembly Hall

The main assembly hall buzzed with anticipation, murmurs and numerous conversations filled the air. Every Student Bearer in the Academy was present, wearing their crisp uniforms and involved in separate conversations, others silent.

But there was a thick tension in the air that even the most distracted Students couldn't ignore.

Not only where the Student Bearers present, but staff, teachers and Mystagogues. Even the Dean, Gladdeus Smallbutter in his stout, dwarf form, contrasting the taller staff and teachers with his noble scholar robes.

The learned man fidgeted slightly, his face mostly unreadable, but his presence alone signaled the seriousness of the gathering.
