THE SHADOW REGENT

A STANDALONE STORY

A god has fallen. A throne sits empty. And ambitious schemers plot in the shadows.

The battle has ended, but the pantheon has survived at a terrible cost. Bereft of both Gurthghol and Vkar’s throne, they’re now weaker and more defenseless than ever. Yet even as the pantheon seek their footing three new gods will be added to the family, further disrupting the former order.

And then there are the others—both inside the pantheon and out—eager for more power and place who will make their moves for greater glory and dominion in this time of divine recovery and realignment.

Plots and plotters, schemers and plans—all will have their day and way. And the cosmos shall never be the same. To the victor shall go the spoils. To the pantheon comes a new order. And to Tralodren a new age shall arise.

Welcome to Tralodren, a world rich in history, faith, and tales of adventure—of which this story is but one of many.
