Attractions in Development

Unholy Requiem remains in review, and will hopefully emerge soon enough. It tells the tale of the rise of one of the most prolific and terrible empires ever to grace the cardinal world. Yet, it is not the worst. The Sovereign loom in the background, awaiting the opportunity to subsume the Ascended and spread their own vile filth over the face of the planet. Unholy Requiem sees the rise of the Ascended; Irreverent Eulogy will see the rise of the Sovereign.

But wait, there’s more! The Architect, as mentioned in a past edition, will operate in the universe of the Children. The Architect is herself Sovereign, though she has cast the mantle of their oaths in favor of working against them. Her stories—when they premiere in Backstage Pass, Vol III—will shed light on much of the background of the active resistance in the Outer Lands.

Furthermore, the Dark Father and CYB3RPVNKCVNT will premiere at or around the same time, providing a deeper look into the experience of the Sovereign and human resistance groups, respectively. Think of these as literary vignettes developing a world in which the events of Shrine of Radiance will play out.

More on these streams of content will be raised as their publishing comes closer. And now, without further ado …
