Darkness. The ultimate ruler, the true One-Above-All. Everything starts from it, and everything returns to it eventually. People say that in your final moments, darkness seeps in your very existence, engulfs your whole being. They say it’s an incredibly relaxing feeling that takes you on your journey to your afterlife. They say that in the very darkness, the ‘nothingness’ your weary soul will finally be able to rest and relax. This brings up some very philosophical and existential questions. Do you even exist?

Follow the epic journey of Aiden, the last primal, a unique and ancient race as he finds his place in a strange, new world, filled with threats and violence.

This story (and the world itself) is something I started writing and creating 15 years ago, while I was telling stories with my friends in our regular D&D sessions. The world is a hand-crafted fantasy world, filled with history and lore that we created over the course of years. While I may be new to the writing scene, I will do my very best to bring you an enjoyable experience. 

Hope you enjoy the journey just as much as I enjoyed creating it.

The Last Primal

"[Orc] We named this village Gupta, which is a combination of the orcish Gurth (AN: meaning New Day) and the goblin Nopta (AN: roughly translates to: Hope). Combined I guess it roughly translates to 'A New Day, New Hope?'" Roas explained as they passed through the village borders.

Unlike outside there were no walls erected, at least not yet, nor were any gates marking the borders of the village's territory.

The reason? There was no need to. They were the first arrivals, the first settlers in this new plane of existence. Apart from the fishes in the nearby river and the emerging animals in the forest, there were no real threats.

The threats of raiding parties of the other, greedy races, bandits, robbers, or violent aggressors of any kind were completely non-existent. They did find traces of predators in the forest, but their habitats were not threatened, and with the sumptuous food source of the smaller mammals, they did not attack the village during nights.
