An Intro to the World of Etere

[p]Ahead of The Lonesome Guild’s release on October 23 (are you excited?!), we thought we’d go a little deeper into the story of the game and the state of the world when you first begin to play. [/p][p]As a quick intro, check out the story trailer! [/p][p]Watch the Trailer[/p][p]Once per century, one Champion from each kin (species) of Etere is chosen to ascend before the Only One, a God-like entity who in turn makes gods of the champions. But this time, the sacred rite has failed, and it is a deafening silence – not divine, but shadow – that has arisen. [/p][p]A subtle evil seeps through every fissure, darkening the hearts of all it touches – loneliness. That loneliness, so cutting and corrupting, has given rise to a world of negativity: despair, desperation, apathy, and vengeance all run rampant throughout the land.  [/p][p]But loneliness is not the only thing to come from the failed Ascension – Ghost awakens, a being who finds it holds no memories but can connect with others and elevate their hidden potential and powers.  [/p][p]Ghost soon meets Davinci – a cheerful Bumblebun who still dreams of flying high despite his broken wings – and together, they recruit a ragtag bunch of adventurers of all kinds. Together, every fear becomes a little less scary, every battle a little less intimidating, every wound a little less painful. [/p][p]Together, The Lonesome Guild begins to fight back against loneliness as one. [/p]
