THE ROAD TO RELEASE A development update from your humble developer at Phantom Axis Studios

Citizens of the Empire, players of taste, and lovers of stories.

The augurs read the sky, but the omens are all wrong. Birds move in twisting patterns that shouldn’t exist, casting shadows where no light should fall. I long to trace the lines in the dust, find a purer meaning, but these cursed shapes shift every time I blink.

Gods whisper everywhere, but not words. Flickers of sanguine torchlight, immense weights of unseen penetrating eyes, a name I do not remember knowing.. WHO CARVES THIS PATH!?

Sibyls once dined on speeches at the junctions of the Via Appia, but no roads remain here, only the faint and dappled echoes of feet that once did tread.

Reach forward will you? Steady yourself it's going to happen again, the beginning of all the endings the part where the world tilts.

Somewhere, somewhere else, the something reaches back...
