Narrative Design: "Monsters"

Blurb

A mountain range stretches across the northernmost fringe of the world, where the Sun never shines beyond. Icing black storms gather behind to descend upon the unwary, and grotesque terrors creep over, hungrier and bolder with each passing wake. A moonless winter draws near, and while those of faith call upon men to place their trust in the Heavens, those of power do to their arms and armies, to guard what little remains to them. Some still wander between it all —Day and Night, heat and cold, peace and war, man and beast.

A nun is summoned to investigate a mysterious disease, testing her faith against the fields of science. A soldier from an occupying empire is forced to decide between treason, and the lives of her comrades. A hunter from faraway wilds traverses a conflict that is not his own, searching to heal an ever-deepening scar. The World unfolds for those who breathe its Fire, and its underlying truths are revealed inescapable: When cold strikes, food lacks, and ambitions arise, few things separate men from monsters.
