Avestara: Tales of Shadow and Flame
The Smoke Beneath the Tamarisks
In the drought-stricken village of Zeyvan, the poppies bloom too red and the earth whispers in forgotten tongues. When the sacred spring runs dry, young shepherd Mehrdad must journey to a ruined fire shrine where something ancient waits beneath the stone—hungry, patient, and listening. But what it wants cannot be fed with blood alone.
A tale of quiet defiance, buried memory, and the roots that remember, set in the folk-horror world of Avestara.
