The Opening

“The rolling hills of De Gylleneasarna are silent for the first time in centuries. Farmers stand like statues in their fields, eyes fixed on the horizon as a strange metallic humming vibrates through the earth. A village elder pleads for you to break the trance before the reaping moon rises.”
