Favors within Ashes

Favors within Ashes submerges you under the pain of squinting eyes and clenching teeth. Blood and obedience rules over the holy lands of Canoria, where the kiss of whips unleash orders and sharpened steel cuts the flesh of those who pretend not to have heard the snap!

The bastard child of Dark Souls and Game of Thrones.

Man created sin.

The completion of the largest temple ever to be raised in the continent of Dautrinias approaches. King Kristoff Lodort promises songs of celebration, gathering the purest of maidens, the mightiest kings, and the most beloved queens in Radiant Star for a festivity deemed to please the gods.

While the final brick is laid, Marco Doran is confined in between the Crown's merciless rebirth knights and his struggle to prove his worth.

Unrest and tragedy surround the capital while the cold talons of heretics spread their poison over all that is holy.

Highborn and lowborn, none are truly safe, as the seed of deception and doubt sprouts from within the Lodort kingship.

There is only one way, through the pain.
