My new dystopian dark fantasy short series with strong Soulsborne-inspired theme and vibes and a different artwork.

SISTERS OF CALAMITY

Thousands of years ago, the Old Empire was ruled by the Pentad, five powerful sorceresses who were the supreme leaders of the nation.

After centuries of domination, they were betrayed by a trusted ally, defeated, and sealed in the Gaol of Eternals, trapped in the Abyss for eternity.

But millennia later, a group of adventurers unwittingly broke the seal, awakening the Sisters. Now free, they have ravaged Ardoran, reducing much of the realm to a desolate wasteland as they continue their reign of terror.

After the Voidbound Ritual and her ascension, Bergdis pledged her loyalty to the Ice Lord, inheriting his devastating power of ice magic and the Fimbulwinter.

Verglas does not share her older sister Umbra's ambition of conquering the mortal realms and restoring the Old Empire and their rule. Instead, she wishes to exact vengeance for her b
