BL: Advent 2017 – Day 24 “The Autumn Prince”

3 Minute Read
Dec 24 2017


Slip into Shadespire with an elegiac, mournful tale told to you, dear listeners.

If you’ve been waiting to get caught-up on your fill of Black Library back-stories and lore then now is the time of year to jump in. Running from December 1st until December 24th, Black Library will have something to read, listen to, or just check out for all things Games Workshop. You can grab them individually or pick up the whole thing as part of the Advent Calendar Subscription.

Today’s tale is a story of Shadespire. Of immortal elves trapped for eternity in an undying city from which there is no escape. It all sounds very mythical, so, take my advice and never look behind you or eat pomegranates.

Lured into the cursed city of Shadespire by the promise of the secret of cheating death, the aelf wanderer Prince Maesa seeks the Katophrane Thanaton. Surrounded by the spirits of the dead who cannot die, trapped in the last moments before the city’s destruction, Maesa nears his goal… but just why does a nigh-immortal aelf seek this power over death?
