Dear Community,
in recent weeks we have mainly shared updates about new features and the future of Varthos. Today, we would like to show you something that dives deeper into the world of the game.
With “The Last Oath”, a short novel set in the universe of Varthos is being released, offering a glimpse into events that took place long before the happenings of the game. In this story, you follow the knight Theomar and experience part of this world’s past—shaped by conflict, choices, and the oath that will determine his fate.
The novella expands the lore of Varthos and provides additional insights into the history behind many locations, legends, and threats within the game world. While you embark on your own journey in the game, “The Last Oath” reveals the events and characters that have shaped the world of Varthos.
If you are interested in learning more about the background of this world or simply want to enjoy a story set in the universe of Varthos, this first tale is worth exploring.
We hope you enjoy this journey into the history of Varthos and look forward to continuing to expand the universe together with you.
Thank you for being part of this journey.
Enjoy reading and playing,
The Nightshift Game Development Team
