To fight, or not to fight

Uncover the tale

Find yourself in the middle of the creation myth in which, by the order of Teller of Tales, Rin comes to life and tries to find her half-god siblings, each carrying a fragment of the Teller’s power of magic Aspects. Discover Rin’s tale, and help her discover her true purpose.
