Three weeks have passed since the battle for the castle, and the Rootless Banner is still paying the price of victory.
Emerson’s curse continues to devour everything his army builds. Weapons crumble, fortifications fade, and siege engines burn away after only four days. Each loss fuels their Momentum, sure, but constant rebuilding is grinding his people down. No matter how hard they fight, nothing they create ever lasts.
Trapped within a sprawling Battle City, four rival Banners wait behind their walls, each growing stronger while the deadly Kill Zone keeps them locked in an uneasy stalemate.
But Emerson has finally uncovered the one loophole the curse cannot touch: consumables. Potions, scrolls, and most importantly, Sparrow Medallions.
This strange currency opens the path to the legendary Birdsong Market, a hidden war bazaar where Emerson can buy powerful weapons, unlock new classes, acquire blueprints for advanced siege engines, and transform his fragile force into a true war host.
But every Banner is racing toward the same goal.
To survive the Chalice Trials, Emerson must do what no commander has ever attempted: turn constant loss into unstoppable growth.
Recruit factions.
Expand his Banner.
Forge an army that thrives on destruction itself.
Because the Chalice Wars have begun, and only one Banner will claim the wish in the end.
Genre: GameLit
