Magnus’s RPG empire on the portal.

I knelt before the altar and put on the Lich's crown... I felt the unprecedented power of this artifact... now the forces of the dead served me... I stood up, put on my hood, and went out into the street... The world looked different somehow... I stepped into the portal to the Empire and found myself in the Griffin province... Looking around, I decided to take a walk around the city and visit the tavern.
