Description

On the sun‑scorched world of Lyallar, Tyr stands atop a ruby throne, his massive form bathed in relentless golden light. Worshipped as a god yet bound by human grief, he draws his life‑force directly from the star above, feeling its power surge through every muscle and thought. The desert peoples chant his name, hoping his presence will bring them prosperity.

When a lone stone tower appears on the horizon, its alien architecture beckons the curious titan. Inside, shelves of strange glass and metal objects pulse with knowledge that floods Tyr’s mind, granting him insights far beyond his own experience. The sudden flood of information both awes and unsettles him, as he begins to understand the deeper history of his planet and its forgotten peoples.

Yet the ancient threat of the ardth—an enigmatic force beyond the stars—stirs once more, and whispers of their return spread through the silver forests. As the first warning sounds, Tyr must decide whether to rely on his newfound wisdom or the raw power of the sun to protect his realm. The stage is set for a clash between reverence and survival.
