The portal is no longer whispering. It’s speaking.

As night falls over the outpost, Annabel, Quinn, Miller, and Thelandor keep watch over the mysterious gateway that has dominated every conversation since their return from Norvale. Rumors swirl throughout camp. Bram Deepwood remains as suspicious as ever. And the portal itself seems determined to draw attention. 🌌👁️

While Miller and Thelandor patrol the area, Annabel and Quinn sit together beneath the strange glow of the portal, staring into its shifting depths and hoping for answers. Instead, they receive something far more unsettling. A name, a voice, a command.

The portal speaks directly to them, repeating a word neither of them has ever heard before: Neithera. Then, as the strange vision deepens, the message becomes even more personal.

“Annabel, thy Neithera, come.” 🔮🕯️

Neither Annabel nor Quinn recognize the name. No story. No legend. No memory connects to it. Yet the voice feels deliberate, intelligent, and impossible to ignore. Before they can make sense of what happened, another problem arrives. Bram.

Wrapped in a dark cloak and moving through the camp with suspicious confidence, Bram approaches the portal under cover of night. What follows is a tense confrontation with the guards as he insists that the outpost leadership has granted him permission to enter the gateway. 🌑⚔️

Whether he is telling the truth—or manipulating everyone around him—remains unclear. But one thing is certain, Bram wants inside the portal. And the portal may already want something from Annabel.

👑 Crownfall takes another step into the unknown. Because some doors do more than open. Sometimes they call your name.
