The Nature of Magic [Ch.1] [Slate Interactive]

December 25, 2024F95

Magic is dying.
  With every passing generation, fewer and fewer are born with the Affinity. Where once every human, elf, and orran could wield magic, now only half of those born to Eorþe’s six Great Families develop the ability. Outside the Families the percentage drops significantly.
  And worse, a spate of suspicious deaths have left only two men with the Affinity alive, both among the Families: Cymhen Grym and Cyril Cenric.
  Unknown to all but Cymhen, however, a third lives in secret, shunning the intrigue and exploitation of the Families.
  You.

  The Families are never denied for long, and a threat soon forces Cymhen’s hand. Your old mentor seeks you out and offers you a place with the Gryms. In exchange for their protection, he asks that you aid him in his latest endeavor: to determine the cause of the dwindling number of those born with the Affinity.
  Will you mend the wounds rent by your sudden disappearance five years ago? Will you stay true to yourself under the weight of the Great Families?
  Will you discover The Nature of Magic?

Developer Notes:

Now that the overly dramatic description is done, what is TNoM really about? The titular quest, obviously, but also ‘found family’, support, and acceptance. Expect some laughs and some tears (hopefully, more of the happy kind) and no small of amount of romance and intimacy. And, yes, there will be unprotected hand-holding.
