Penumbra: Silverark's Folly (Patreon)

Now the name of a rotten and twisted wasteland region of the continent, Silverark's Folly also describes the downfall of a nation. In their unerring faith that they could force another sorcerer-saint into the world by power of their belief alone, the knights of the Silver Ark wrought their own terrible end.

They succeeded in their task: summoning a concentration of magic so potent that for brief moments, a willing vessel was transformed. But the unnatural force could not be contained. The magic was returned to the cosmos with such sudden violence that the nation was obliterated from the face of the earth.

Only a handful of survivors weathered that terrible storm, caught in the eye of calm at its centre.

Happy December, everyone! I've turned the photobashing techniques I've been practicing this week to some art for one of my projects, Penumbra. A narrative moment central to several of the knightly characters.
