Dimfalt

Dimfalt is a fogbound town built around an obsidian obelisk that once cleared the mist when charged by unicorn magic, and its people live by the pact made with the forest herd; now the unicorns are gone, the obelisk cracks, and messengers to the capital have vanished, leaving the town brittle with fear and desperate for answers.
