Concept art showing the citizens of Verra escaping a besieged city through a divine gateway.

Long ago, the world of Verra[1] was besieged by a great calamity. A corruption befell the land, twisting and perverting every facet of nature, spawning hideous beings of every description; from troll-like creatures to towering behemoths. Nothing escaped its touch.[2]

Granted by divine intervention, your ancestors fled Verra through towering gateways, seeking refuge in a place void of magic.[3]

Soon after the exodus, the gateways dimmed and became dormant. Centuries turned to millennia, burying them beneath myriad calamities. Over eons, history became legend, then even the great legends were at last forgotten.[4]

Ancient evils lie in wait for hapless adventurers.

The world in Ashes lay devoid of civilization for centuries. Until now.[2]

What was once buried had risen again. The gateways had opened, reigniting the link to the ancient world.[3]

You arrive on Verra through great divine gateways.

Vast expeditions were sent through the gateways to discover the beautiful and perilous magical realm of your ancestors.[3]

The world in Ashes has been void of civilization for centuries.

You arrive in the world of Ashes to explore, rebuild and repopulate your place of origin. Ancient treasures[5] and wondrous adventures await those who dare to disturb the dark remnants of evil that inhabit this land.[3]

From now on, your choices and the choices of your fellow adventurers will influence how the story will unfold.[4]
