The Ventureweaver

I’ve been traveling for what feels like an eternity—wandering along hidden paths, forgotten trails, and roads less traveled. All in an attempt to uncover what secrets lie within the wilderness. The stories that fill my mind and the adventures that inspire me have been my constant companions on this journey.

But today is Sunday, and as the pot roast cooks in the oven and the holiday spirit of Christmas draws near, I find myself savoring a quiet moment of reflection. Allowing my mind to wander freely has brought me so much joy—creating worlds, imagining wonders, and shaping a tale that I hope will captivate you as much as it does me.

So, with that in mind, I hope you enjoy this story as much as I’ve enjoyed bringing it to life.

///What will be on the Introduction Screen\\\

You have traveled day and night through the wilderness and the uncharted lands of this fantastical world. Strange creatures roam these lands, beings never before witnessed by those who speak of the world of the Unclean. You’ve passed through villages forged in the first light of creation, their ancient stones whispering tales of the birth of the world. In these places dwell peoples whose very existence is said to bring forth treasures of wisdom, answers to life’s greatest mysteries.

But that is an adventure for another time. Perhaps their secrets will remain forgotten, left as great mysteries buried by the passage of ages.

For now, your path is clear. You are Drakhan, a chosen adventurer, promised the great treasures of Oathmoor, a village carved into the Earth and shrouded in legend. It is said that in Oathmoor, the dead find no rest, and the air itself hums with whispers of the past. The King himself has summoned you, his land in turmoil, seeking a champion to rid it of an ancient evil.

The threat comes in the form of Malthera, a witch whose dark ambitions are matched only by her cunning. Malthera seeks to awaken the fabled dragon, Vaelthoryn, the Giver of Life and the Bringer of Destruction. Long ago, it was Vaelthoryn who brought the sun from the gods and ignited life in this world.

But Vaelthoryn’s power is not without consequence. If Malthera succeeds in awakening the dragon, she could command its might to unmake the world. To stop her, you must recover the Five Treasures, ancient relics sought by the King and vital to keeping Vaelthoryn sealed in eternal slumber. Time is running out, for when the next full moon rises, Malthera will enact her ritual to awaken the dragon.

Do you have what it takes to bring peace back to the land, or will Malthera’s dark vision consume all? Only time will tell.
