(from the front cover) The ancient Nexid watchtowers are reappearing in the land. One has been found. Concealing relics of unknown purpose and power, it cloaks itself within a shroud of dark energy. Malignant brooding hunters reside within. As the evil seeps out over the land, the rustic town of Whisper continues to suffer. A hermit's cottage has burned to the ground. A farmhand is missing. Come explore the darkness at the edge of the light. Discover the First Sentinel.
