Beyond the Borders (DEMO)

Beyond the Borders

Step into the halls of the grand library, where you are nothing but a newborn tool carved from stone — until you decide otherwise.

📖 Synopsis

You awaken in the cold, echoing halls of the mysterious library, pulled from the infinite void by your new master's voice.

You are the latest creation of Scarlett — an eccentric, brilliant, and dangerously possessive... alchemist? Who views you as a mere masterpiece of stone and magic.  

But he is not the only presence in the shadows. His brother, Runar, stalks the halls with burning yellow eyes and a volatile temper, seeing you as nothing more than scrap metal meant to serve.  

Bound to their wills and trapped in a world of dark magic and ancient secrets, you must navigate their hostile relationship. 

Will you remain a silent, obedient tool, or will the artificial spark in your chest ignite a rebellion?

Every choice you make, every brewed cup of tea, and every hidden secret you uncover could be the difference between finding your soul or returning to the abyss.
