More Tower of Scherbenmark Details "Do not trust the echo of a spell."
Mornhollow lies in shards—fractured by countless bottomless chasms and cold-glowing arcane rifts. Through this shattered realm crawl floating islands, broken cities, mana rifts, and roads that no longer agree on where they lead. At the heart of this devastation stands an old research spire, silent for three winters.
Your sister Mara entered the spire with rift scholars and debt-sworn sellswords. Only her satchel returned, carried by a courier aged a year in a single evening. Inside was a single note: "Do not trust the echo of a spell."
You descend. Equipped with a worn blade, a little medicine, and the kind of hope that survives because it is too stubborn to understand fear. Somewhere below wait the Archon's discarded experiments, the Arcane Rift, and the thing that learned Mara's name.
