Frostgrave: Tales of the Frozen City
Eleven Authors Present Eleven Stories.
Long ago; the great city of Felstad sat at the centre of a magical empire. Its towering spires; labyrinthine catacombs and immense libraries were the wonder of the age; and potions; scrolls and mystical items of all descriptions poured from its workshops. Then; one cataclysmic night; a mistake was made. In some lofty tower or dark chamber; a foolish wizard unleashed a magic too powerful to control. A storm rose up; an epic blizzard that swallowed the city whole; burying it deep and leaving the empire as nothing more than a vast; frozen wasteland. The empire shattered; and the magic of the world faded. As the centuries came and went; Felstad passed from history to legend and on into myth. Only a few wizards; clinging to the last remnants of magical knowledge; still believed that the lost city had ever actually existed. But their faith was rewarded. After a thousand years; the fell winter has passed. The snows have receded; and Felstad has been uncovered. Its buildings lie in ruins; overrun by undead creatures and magical constructs; the legacy of the empire's experiments. It is an evil; dangerous place. To the few hardy souls who inhabit the nearby villages; the city has acquired a new name; ‘Frostgrave'; and it is shunned by all right-thinking people. For those who seek power and riches; however; it is an unparalleled opportunity; a deadly maze concealing secrets of knowledge
