Description

In the shadow-drenched city of Arcanea, where magic pulses through cobblestones and secrets fester in every alley, Elridar Moonwhisper—half-elf detective and arcane trickster—navigates a world teetering between wonder and ruin. When Lila, a desperate shopkeeper, hires him to recover a stolen family amulet, El expects a quick job. But the theft unravels a deeper conspiracy—an artifact cloaking a ciphered scroll that could unlock forbidden power or unleash chaos. With his sharp-tongued ally Ella, El dances through Arcanea's underbelly, dodging shadow mages, corrupt watchmen, and the elusive Magpie, a collector with a predator's grin. In a city where light hides lies and darkness whispers truth, every step drags them closer to a labyrinth of danger—and a truth that might break them. Noir meets magic in this gritty urban fantasy tale.
