The Sunken Meridian

Sunfall was once a world of gilded certainties — philosophers mapped the heavens, kingdoms raised towers toward a sun that answered. The sun no longer answers. Beneath the architecture of the known world, something ancient and indifferent stirs, and the age of human meaning is ending not with violence but with the slow, patient erasure of everything humanity once believed itself to be.

The Sunken Meridian is built on the conviction that the most devastating horror is not what destroys you but what makes your destruction feel cosmically irrelevant. Players are not heroes resisting the dark. They are inheritors of a civilization already past its highest point, moving through the long tail of a decline that began before any of them were born, investigating truths that were never meant for minds of their scale. Victory, in this world, is not the defeat of the ancient and the unknowable. It is the preservation of something small and human in the face of the proof that small and human never mattered at all.
