On the wind-scoured isle of Greymoor, where the sea is both a lifeline and a threat, the old ways have been forgotten. The folk once honored the tides, whispering prayers to the unseen forces that kept darker things at bay—but time breeds arrogance, and tradition fades into memory.

Then the blight begins.

The waters turn foul, the fields wither, and a sickness creeps through the village. Cattle are found stripped to the bone, the air thickens with the stench of rot, and whispers rise of something moving in the mist—something that should not walk the land.

As fear tightens its grip, the people of Greymoor must confront the truth they have long ignored: the sea does not forget, and debts left unpaid will always come due.
