The Eldrim Cards

The planet Neire is cursed, and a malevolent corruption is spread throughout the lands. Dark horrors reside around every corner, and safety is a concept of tales and legends. Trapped in a world where they are at the bottom of the natural food chain, humans have followed the trends of the lands, and done something unnatural. Banding together, they hunted their hunters. Weapons in hand, they faced living nightmares. Unable to wield aether, they used Eldrim cards to spread their dominion. In a world where death was their only birthright, they carved out an empire that was legend incarnate. But while they fought cursed monsters outside, a more insidious monstrosity struck from within. Greed, deception, and war marked the end of the Valeriya Empire. Hundreds of years later, Nero is born into a nation of warriors, in an age cracking beneath an unseen weight. Whispers of a new order, undercurrents to seize power, and a desire to form a new empire have spread throughout the lands. The world is ready for a change, but it might not be ready for Nero who was betrayed. They messed with his brother, and now, they must face the consequences.
