| 1 | The Last Black Eye of Antigo Vale (Unabr | Christopher D Schmitz |
| Residing in a secluded village christened after his mighty namesake, Antigo is the last of his family line in a town that has long forgotten ancient pledges and rites which bind the mythic and monstrous Skekstatsiis within the forest. Tradition maintains Antigo must become a man by the end of harvest or those eldritch fetters will shatter. Unceremoniously passed over again by all suitors, Antigo finds the corpse of a friend. Convinced of the Skekstatsiis's return, the elders write it off as fairytale and delusion, or worse: a plot by the Trade League to disrupt the harvest! Only Bersham, the old crone who raised Antigo after a long-past tragedy orphaned him, believes in the Skekstatsiis who released a living weapon into the village so they could once again feed upon the souls of the Vale. Bersham knows that her young ward is a child of destiny and embodies one of the three attributes needed to destroy the beasts once and for all - though wielding this power to overturn the machinations of the Skekstatsiis will come at a high cost. |
