Our take on Shadow of Asha
The village-centered premise keeps the story focused on Narkian's corruption and Asha's threat, but that focus also limits the setting's breadth. Players looking for a wider journey across many locations or a larger cast of opposing forces may find the structure restrained.

Shadow of Asha follows Narkin, grandson of the warrior Narkian, as he confronts Asha's darkness and attempts to imprison her.
Asha's shadows are corrupting the village of Narkian, while its residents leave after earlier warriors failed to stop her.
