I started a new campaign in Venosta called "Descent into Darkness," where I will play as a young mage-necromancer named Malyn Keshara. Our hero was born in a small town by the river, located on the northern border (although on the map, the town is on the east =\, I don't know where their lands and borders are). The town seemed to be doing well, except for the orc attacks that occurred every summer. Malyn's father led a retaliatory squad that drove the orcs back north after successfully defending the town. When the boy was ten years old, a mage who stopped in the town sensed in him the makings of a powerful sorcerer. His parents agreed to send Malyn with the mage to the island of Alduin, where mages are trained. This way, the boy would at least be safe, his parents thought. He studied with the mages for eight years, and then he was expelled (the story does not yet reveal why). During this time, the orc raids on his town became more frequent and fiercer. When Malyn returned home, another orc attack began almost immediately. Malyn's father died in these battles. After the commander's death, the human troops began to retreat, and the orcs, sensing victory, rushed forward. However, armed skeletons suddenly began to appear from the forest and attacked the orcs. The enemy was defeated, and the skeletons retreated back into the forest. Then, a necromancer emerged from the forest. He introduced himself as Dark Volkov and asked to rest for a couple of days in the town, although he knew that the people in the town and throughout Venosta did not like his kind and punished dark mages with the death penalty. But, in gratitude, the captain of the guard allowed the necromancer to stay for a few days... Annual raid. Distressed by his father's death, Malyn tried to convince the townspeople to allow the necromancer to stay in the town to protect them, but the town was against it, and the necromancer left. A few weeks later, another raid occurred. The captain of the guard, Drogan, ordered Malyn and three soldiers to defend the river crossing so that the orcs would not reach the town. But the orcs were stronger, so Malyn raised several zombies. Drogan thought that the necromancer had returned, but Malyn explained that it was him. The necromancer had taught him this while he was in the town. Drogan was against it, but Malyn insisted, and with the help of the zombies, he defended the town, and reinforcements destroyed the orc camp. After the victory, Drogan told Malyn to leave. The young man could not understand why he was being driven away, as he was only trying to protect his town and its inhabitants. But he still had to leave, and with mixed feelings, Malyn left the town... screenshot #1 Malyn and the orcs screenshot #2 Drogan's reinforcements
