From my childhood, I was living a mixed life. Was I blessed or was I cursed? I had a contrary view over my life. But I was never alone despite everyone around me abandoning me. Another voice was echoing through me, telling me to not be afraid. At one point, I almost succumbed into a life under the shadow, but someone eventually pulled me out of it and placed me under the spotlight. I thought I was freed forever, but the Echo told me that I was wrong. And it was all proven true on the day I discovered the true face of my beloved, who cheated on me without any shame. That day, I felt my world breaking apart. We were always together, I thought we would be together forever. Like some sort of beautiful fantasy. Silly, yet warm. Somewhere I could escape to. A home. It wasn't too much. But somehow, it all started that day. Or did it start before it? I don't remember. My memories are failing me. He told me I shouldn't stay. He told me I'll only get hurt no matter how I try to please him. He did not lie… Then, why did it hurt so much? Maybe because I truly loved him, seeing him with another had me broken to pieces. It wasn't fun, but… It wasn't the worst. That day, I finally decided. ‘Leave.’ It was as if a trigger had been pulled, and my life moved again in a hectic direction. I've met people I thought I won't be meeting again, and was stranded between so many fights of interests. I could only fight for myself there. This time, not only the Echo was with me. Another person was there, supporting me unconditionally. Giving me the confidence to move. Still, I will forever wonder… What choice is the right one? I guess I'll never know until I reach my destination.

In the decaying city of Kharith, where magic once flourished, an ancient evil stirs beneath centuries of rubble and ruin. As dark forces threaten to consume the realm of Atheron, an unlikely prophecy emerges not of chosen ones, but of five broken individuals whose flaws may be the key to salvation. Each bears their own scars: a warrior haunted by betrayal, a scholar racing against time, a thief seeking redemption, a mage who's lost their power, and a healer who couldn't save what mattered most. Together, they must navigate the treacherous depths of Kharith's ancient catacombs and confront the darkness that mirrors their own inner demons. But as they delve deeper into forgotten magic and hidden truths, they discover that their greatest battle isn't against the ancient evil threatening their world it's against the shadows within themselves. In a race against time, these reluctant heroes must forge bonds stronger than their fears and make sacrifices that will echo through the ages. "The Shadows of Kharith" is a haunting tale of redemption, unity, and the price of salvation, where the true measure of a hero lies not in their perfection, but in their willingness to face the darkness both within and without.
