"It was the hubris of each generation to think this anew, to think that their time was special, that all things would come to an end with them."
_{-Hugh Howey}

INFO

Whispers of Ruin is a post-apocalyptic fantasy story that takes place years after a brutal sickness wiped out most of the world’s population. Nature is reclaiming the land and the remaining humans have to rely on their faith and each other to survive this new world. Humans stay tucked in the safe walls of their villages hoping to avoid the beasts that roam the lands. But what happens when a group of humans gets exiled from their village and are forced to live alongside the beasts they’ve been taught to avoid? Can these humans survive the dangers of the wilds or will they fall prey to the beasts beyond the village walls?

No remaining human could tell anyone where the sickness came from or why it only infected some rather than others. To the last of the humans the sickness was divine punishment. By the time the sickness had waned nearly three fourths of the human population was gone. The families left behind were meant to roam an unforgiving earth, to plead with a God that was no longer listening.World governments had collapsed, wars and famine only helped to accelerate the near extinction of the human race. This strife allowed religious sects to take root and humans learned to rely on small groups to survive the changing planet. But something had changed and as more humans perished, more monsters appeared.Humans were uneducated when it came to monsters and the beasts beyond their village walls, they knew very little and often claimed that monsters are merely demons trying to wipe the rest of the humans from the planet. Many human groups were extinguished by monsters and so began a long cycle of hate and misunderstanding from both sides.Monsters on the other hand believed that the world had been left to them, they were responsible for ensuring that the plague called the human race was eradicated. Humans had forced monsters to live in hiding and the human sickness had been a blessing. Monsters would no longer be forced to hide away in the shadows of forests and mountains, their habitats would no longer be destroyed by greedy humans. Monsters believed that the world, their home, was better for it.

Wevenins

Deep in the remnants of old mine shafts the wevenins make their home. These creatures are closely related to humans and are thought to come from the same common ancestor. Wevenins have a rich culture based upon the moon and sun and many of their traditions revolve around celestial bodies. Humans tend to call these creatures, ‘Tunnelers’, but this is considered offensive. Their groups are called Whispers due to how silently they can move through the undergrowth in the dark.

Cavgim

High above the forest floor, sprawled out in the huge trees cavgim make their homes. These creatures are the top of the food chain and they don’t let anyone forget it. Legends say that cavgim are a result of a curse cast long ago by a witch as she burned on a pyre. Modern cavgim tribes evolved from the original group that was cursed. Not much is known about their culture as they shun and often kill outsiders.

"Didn't ask to be right or to be lonely, or to be hatched into an ugly story."

DOLLY

powerful - lovable - trusting

In the dead of a long winter, the longest winter the pride had seen in centuries, they rejoiced for the Guardian had returned. A blue egg from the legends, real as the river running through the mountains. But this gift that had been given to the pride was wasted, never to hatch in the comfort of her pride, never to see her mother gazing at her with love, never to fulfill her true purpose. Not even her pride could protect her from the evil that lurked through their sanctuary. After brutally executing every living cat left in the pride in a bout of revenge, an evil witch stole the Guardian’s egg, planning to use the child’s power to her own advantage.The guardian hatched months later and the witch was quick to put her new ‘daughter’ on the path of dark magic. The Guardian was given a name, Dolly. A cruel way for the witch to remind her child that she was nothing more than a tool to be used, a magical conduit to play with. Despite the witch’s awful attitude and mistreatment of Dolly, she loved her mother with all her heart. Dolly was eager to please her mother and worked hard to learn all the magic she could and throughout the years it proved to be working. Dolly’s power surpassed her mother’s and the young Guardian was thrilled, overjoyed even. She could finally help her mother do what she’d always vowed to do.Dolly soon learned that her mother’s ultimate plan was harsh and brutal, violence and terror that Dolly had to quickly learn how to block out. The young Guardian learned to dissociate when her mother made them march into human villages, recruiting those who were willing and killing those who opposed. Dolly was forced to perform dark rituals on these willing humans, twisting their shapes into monstrous forms. A violent new pride for her mother to control.Dolly remains unaware of her true gifts and the witch who claims ownership of her plans to keep it that way for as long as they both live.
