Description
Short Description: An intriguing invitation to view a puppet show brings the members of the newly reformed Society to a remote crossroads on a stormy November’s night. What secrets lie beyond the door of the Witch Cat Inn, and how is this dilapidated old inn connected to your past!
Welcome to the Mythic North – northern Europe of the nineteenth century, but not as we know it today. A land where the myths are real. A cold reach covered by vast forests, its few cities lonely beacons of industry and enlightenment – a new civilisation dawning. But in the countryside, the old ways still hold sway. There, people know what lurks in the dark.
Long Description: In dark forests, beyond the mountains, by black lakes in hidden groves. At your doorstep. In the shadows, something stirs. Strange beings. Twisted creatures, lurking at the edge of vision. Watching. Waiting. Unseen by most, but not by you. You see them for what they really are.
Vaesen.

Välkommen till ett 1800-talets Norden där myterna är verkliga. Där vindpinade vidder täcks av ändlösa skogar, och ett fåtal städer står likt upplysningens ensliga fyrbåkar – en föraning om den stundande industrialiseringen. På landsbygden härskar fortfarande den gamla tron. Där vet folk vad som döljer sig i mörkret. De vet att dessa varelser måste blidkas. Fruktas.
