For two long months you have battled the endless sea, chasing whispers of a forgotten shore. You left behind the safety of known lands for promises of fortune, glory, and the freedom to carve your own fate beneath an unfamiliar sun.
The ocean has shown you every face it owns. Cruel storms. Dead winds. Endless horizons. Yet now, at last, the cry rises from the deck.
Land.
Beyond the crashing waves, low mountains rise from the sea like the bones of some ancient giant. Upon the highest cliffs stands a lonely tower of stone, a lighthouse reaching skyward from the remains of a greater ruin whose purpose has been swallowed by time.
A mile west, the cliffs surrender to a narrow passage and the calm waters of a sheltered bay beyond.
Home.
To the bold, the desperate, and those hungry enough to risk everything, the word feels true. Here waits a land untouched by your people. A place where names can be made, treasures uncovered, and legends born.
Yet among the gathered faces aboard your ships, not all look with wonder.
Some stare silently toward the broken stones ahead.
Because the ruins are not empty.
They are waiting.
