The year is 1478...

..., but is known to most as the Year of the Dark Circle, as the people of the Forgotten Realms care little for numbering the passing of time.

The flow of years has brought many changes, the Spellplague has come and never really left. The tide of darkness that poured over the realms now ebbs, leaving behind a scarred world.

Home to traders, thieves, monsters and heroes, the Sword Coast has seen many disaster and challenges. From the splendor of Waterdeep to the dark alleys of Calimport, danger lurks at every corner, and an ancient evil plots to regain his lost powers and spread once again his influence over the mortals of the Realms.

Amongs the many heroes to face the coming tide of dangers...

Fylikiel, an eladrin noble from Cormanthor with a dark secret and darker knowledges.

Aishar, a water genasi swordmage, a deadman walking, unwitting ennemy of Netheril.

Auburn, son of a Pirate and pirate warlord himself, unsure of his fate and his place in the world.

Acane, a mysterious ranger, with outrageous manners but many secrets buried deep.

They are not prepared for what they are about to unearth.
