The Opening

“The High Priestess hands you a cold iron bell and points to a shivering girl. Her command is simple: Deliver Elara to the Monolith of Dawn before the first light of tomorrow. If the bell stops ringing, run.”

— Hook · escort

Set the Scene

The party stands in a dim, incense-choked chapel where High Priestess Valerius is ritualistically binding a heavy, cold iron bell to the waist of a pale girl named Elara.

High Priestess Valerius

Valerius is clinical and desperate, treating the girl more like a ticking bomb than a human being.

Rumours

Stakes

If Elara dies before reaching the monolith, or if the ritual fails, the Shadow Demon will be unleashed upon the valley, possessing every living soul it finds.

Ticking Clock·The ritual must begin exactly at dawn; if the sun rises and Elara is not at the Monolith, the demon's container will shatter.

Background Lore

For centuries, the Order of the Silver Veil has contained a Shadow Demon by binding it to the bloodline of a local family. Every generation, the oldest child must undergo a transfer ritual at the Monolith of Dawn.

What the World Knows

Elara is a chosen acolyte who must travel to a holy site to receive a blessing that will cure her of a wasting spiritual disease and protect the valley from darkness.
