nEnderal accomplishes total immersion in a story in a way I have not seen in a long, long time. There were moments where the emotional weight of what happened hit me so hard that all I could do was sit and stare blankly. - Joe Pishgar, Toms Hardware#1 In German Literature (07/2020)The hardcover edition comes with an illustrated appendix that includes: A short geographical overview of the Kilayan ArchipelagoAn essay on the history of the Archipelago and the Illumined WorldA bestiary of the Archipelagos native creaturesPencil sketches of the characters, as envisioned by another in-universe characterAn overview of the seven Light-Born, the pantheon of the Illumined WorldA Nehrimese tailors impressions of Kilayan fashion A guide to Makehu, the language spoken by the Makehu people, designed by a professional linguistThe Great Umbra and the Resurrection of the World, the creation myth of the MakehuTo the Moon I Say Farewell, a poem by Jespars sisterFantasy, mystery, and psychological horror converge in this gripping story that ventures deep into the dark corners of our minds. Jaaros Oonai, magnate, visionary, and master of coin, doesnt muse about whether the glass is half empty or half full-only about ways to fill it. Jespar DalVarek, drifter, veteran, and master of avoidance, doesnt muse at all. Hed rather just drink the damn wine. Two lives that could not be more different intertwine when a strange contract leads Jespar to the tropical island empire of Kilay, the wealthiest nation of the Illumined World. The mission turns out to be as bizarre as it is lucrative: Jaaros Oonai, the countrys merchant king, knows something that could stop a catastrophe, but he has fallen into an inexplicable coma. Together with an ex-priestess and a psychic, Jespar must enter Oonais dreams and find this secret. What should have been a fresh start quickly turns into a nightmare, as Jespar slides into a spiral of disturbing dreams, political intrigue, and clashing ideals, where not only the fate of Kilay but his own sanity are at stake. Its not long before he learns that sometimes only a spiders thread divides the sleeping and the awoken. And that theres no greater enemy than ones own mind. Dreams of the Dying is set in the universe of the award-winning, indie RPG Enderal, but stands on its own. It doesnt require knowledge of the game in order to be read.
