Astralith Forgeworks · Mythic fantasy
A cleric saved one city. A Watcher must decide when an entire universe truly needs his hand.
Story foundation
Before the Astralith, Yoldus believed in coming when others needed help. Becoming Watcher does not replace that belief; it tests whether he can preserve it when every choice may affect worlds beyond counting.
Yoldus joined companions, confronted the evil threatening a city, and remained when victory left ruins that still needed hands.
The companions helped rebuild the ruined city into something greater, and Yoldus’s influence grew through service rather than conquest.
Jealous divine power sought his ruin. Yoldus refused because loyalty to the people mattered more than obedience to a threatened god.
At the Astralith, Yoldus observes universes, intervenes only when needed, and accepts that guardianship is not ownership.
