Story
The Anchor of the World, an ancient structure, that holds the world from drifting into the void, is no longer shrouded by the Citadel of Atysia, in the Land of Eclipses. The gaze of Erlik, God of Death, has inevitability shifted towards its mark after centuries of war. In his last advance he sends his forces to sever the binds of the world so it may plunge into chaos. The Ronin, Thief, Strider and Wu jen are the heroes that stand in this final climax against a God.
