Synopsis

In a world where knowledge is hoarded like gold and Candlekeep stands as its fortress, six unlikely souls are thrust into a conspiracy older than kingdoms and darker than the Nine Hells combined.

The Keeper of Tomes is found dead under impossible circumstances. Magic defied. Wards unraveled. Silence shattered. Now, a disgraced dragonborn prince, a grief-stricken wererat ranger, a sharp-tongued halfling professor, a monk haunted by ghosts, a brooding elven warlock, and a silent feline touched by the arcane are tasked with uncovering the truth.

But truth in Candlekeep is a dangerous thing. Especially when it sings.

A cursed rhyme echoes through ancient halls. A forgotten demon-spirit stirs beneath the stacks. And in the shadows, a mysterious actor tightens his grip on reality itself, trading secrets, knowledge, and kings in the process.

As devils tear through the veil between worlds and empires turn inward, the six are sent on a suicidal mission into the ruins of Mithral Hall, a dwarven city swallowed by rot and betrayal.

They were never meant to return. They were sent to their deaths.
But death may be the only way out.
