Cathargo

In the capitals across the Continent, arguments rage over use of the magicka---the strange language that can summon the elementa to do one’s bidding. Anyone with the knowledge can control fire, water, rock or air—but not without dangerous consequences.

As the Imperium and Magickan States stumble towards war, the free city of Cathargo becomes a flashpoint between the two ancient kingdoms. Treaties and alliances are strained to their limits as new mechanical inventions threaten the old magic that has held sway for centuries.

History hinges as much on coincidence as plans, and the truth is often lost behind mistakes and lies. While their leaders plot mysterious strategies, the people of the city struggle to live their lives—and change everything when they unwittingly cross paths.

- A woman strives for respect
- And an orphan just wants to survive

On Winternight, their worlds collide and set the future on a course that none of the great powers could anticipate. When everything is falling apart, anyone can become the hero of their own story.
