The Shattered Sky

The Shattered Sky

After creating Grand Fireworks for the Peace Day Festival, Vivisari notices that the night sky has fractured in a way ordinary people cannot perceive. The celebration continues beneath an invisible wound in reality.
Confirmation at Prismarche
She brings Guard Captain Soren and Marcus to the city wall. Marcus initially rejects the idea of dimensional magic, but his senses eventually confirm the impossible pattern.

The Meridian Opening

The Meridian Opening
A Ritual Made Real
Damon Caldimore and the Fell Apostate activate a ritual intended to breach the dimensional boundary. The Wardens’ resources and identity serve as the ritual’s primary sacrifice, while Isabella is used as the conceptual projectile.
A World Beneath the World
The Warden's Guildhall collapses into an abyss leading toward the Other Side. Voidling and Voidbeast creatures pour into Meridian, carrying the same anti-magical material that empowered the Red Tithe.
