The Oracle Stone: Four Winds: 3

The storm has begun.The Sal Empire tightens its grip on the Heartlands. Kingdoms fall in a single afternoon. Cities rot from a corruption no sword can touch. And at the center of it all stands Empress Telgress, wielding a power older than memory and darker than death.William Carelock never asked to carry the Oracle Stone. Yet the ancient relic pulses against his heart, guiding him toward forgotten Vales, buried truths, and a prison that was never meant to be opened. The Elves whisper of a prophecy. The Four Winds stir. And a name long sealed in legend begins to echo once more.Aesthalis. As allies fracture and enemies close in, William and Altanie must cross hostile seas and return to a homeland now flying the banner of their conquerors.But the greatest danger may not lie in the Empire's armies.It may lie within the Stone itself.Because the Oracle was not only forged to guide.It was forged to lock away Chaos.And if the lock breaks, the Second Reckoning will not spare anyone.The winds are rising. The world is watching. The Four Winds have chosen.
