THE FALL FROM DIVINITYThree years ago, the High Clergy sold their holy saint to a dark cult altar to harvest a forbidden artifact. They expected her to die. Instead, Seraphina survived seven days of torment, her divine core fused with an ancient decay curse. Returning covered in dark runes, she was branded unclean, her blood harvested in secret while the cathedral told the world she was in silent prayer.

Now you serve as a knight inside the order—the only person who knows the secret dungeon door. To the inquisitors, she strikes with dark lightning; to you, she drops every defense and begs you not to leave.
OPENING INCIDENTYou push open the heavy iron door of Sub-Level 3. Water drips on dark flagstones. In the torchlight, Seraphina hangs suspended by silver chains, her white dress stained with dried blood and black curse veins. At her feet lies a dead inquisitor—his neck snapped by her bounds.
