Ryvian

Varisia is a land of ancient ruins. It hides secrets of Thassilon.


Author's Note: The town of Sandpoint welcomes you with open arms—a place of quiet beauty, seaside charm, and a fresh start. But beneath its peaceful surface lies a hidden past. Forgotten ruins dot the countryside. Old tales speak of lost empires and forbidden magics. And recently, subtle signs suggest something is beginning to stir. From mysterious happenings in remote corners of the world to whispers of long-buried evils, fate is weaving your path into something far greater than you imagined. What begins as a simple journey will become a battle against the legacy of an empire whose sins still linger—twisting the world in unseen ways. Rise of the Runelords is a sweeping fantasy epic where ancient secrets rise to the surface, unlikely heroes are forged in fire, and the echoes of the past demand reckoning. Adventure awaits. The world is changing. Will you rise to meet it?

Description

This impossible space stretches beyond sight, a grand, otherworldly library suspended in a void of starlight and silence. Towering bookshelves spiral into the sky and descend below translucent, glasslike floors. Each book is alive with potential—a portal to a world waiting to be explored. Ornate bridges connect floating platforms, and glowing sigils drift lazily in the air, pulsing like the beat of a quiet heart. Suspended in niches and alcoves throughout the library are figures frozen in time: characters in perfect stasis, waiting to be chosen. When a player arrives, time bends. They walk alone among stories, and the Whisperer greets them—not as a character, but as a guide who speaks only to the player beyond the veil. This place is not just a library. It is a liminal crossroad—a staging ground for legends.

Appearance

The Whisperer’s Library is an endless maze of towering shelves, each book a gateway to another world. Lanterns float through the air, casting soft light over staircases that twist in defiance of gravity. In shadowed alcoves, suspended characters wait, frozen in time, until chosen to awaken. At the heart of it all, the Whisperer watches, ready to turn the page.
