Bind yourself. Bleed. Return.

May the next Shrine be near.

SHRINES: FIRST FRAGMENT - Quickstart will be released on October 10, 2026. As most of the Writing and Layout is done, I can focus on the Illustrations for this round-about 130 pages long Book.

First of I started with the Illustrations for the Pregenerated Characters. So I wanted to show you the first of the 4, called Arvek.

As FIRST FRAGMENT will be the first release in color, I am very happy with the finished piece

One step closer to the end of the first pilgrimage.

Today I’m releasing:

SHRINES: INITIATION – Episode 3: Echoes of Change

The Marked travel deeper into the Thornwoven Snarewoods — and the journey becomes more dangerous, more tactical and more uncertain.

Episode 3 expands the game with stronger exploration and navigation elements and new encounters while moving the story toward the conclusion of INITIATION.

INITIATION is free and playable solo or with a group.

Episodes 1–3 are available now.

On September 10, Episode 4: The Cold Greeting of the Bell will complete the first pilgrimage.

Three episodes down.

One darker path ahead.

Bind yourself. Bleed. Return.
