The bells of Emberfall have tolled for nine days. The dead rise wearing their last unfinished vow — and only a Binder of the Last Candle can leash them. Build your covenant of revenant brides, descend through the Weeping Catacombs, and end the song in the Cathedral of Cinders.
No account needed to play. An account keeps your covenant in the cloud and unlocks the Reliquary.
Turn-based duels across eight elements — Ember, Rime, Iron, Umbral, Sanguine, Storm, Venom, Radiant. Weaken a wild soul, press a Vow Sigil to her, and watch the binding circle take hold.
From common candle-ghosts to the ten UR queens of the plague. Every soul has a face, a title and the death that made her. Ascensions transform your starters at level 18.
Offer soul-embers at a candle-shrine and something answers. Seasonal events bring Specials that never roam the wild — the Blood Moon, All Souls, the Long Candle.
Dynamic torchlight, drifting ash, haunted catacombs and a cathedral that is keeping something asleep. Ride the Sexton's Mare, a skeleton horse earned from a grave-digger's debt.
Quests from the people of Emberfall, unlockable titles shown beneath your name, and sixty items including lockets that heal when hope runs low.
Accounts, cloud saves and a launcher that patches itself. Skins for your brides, a Crypt for your overflow, and a road toward shared servers.
Cindra, the Hearth-Daughter. Isvelle, the Drowned Bride. Nyxenne, the Midnight Bride. Morrigane, the Phantom Queen. Every one of them died keeping a vow — and will keep yours.
