The Crimson Ballad

In a dark medieval era, Arkane and Stella, two young adults with amnesia, are hunted down by a mysterious creature that sows terror and destruction in its path.

The fugitives are approached by a magician who promises them a way to leave these cursed lands and escape the demon that is hunting them. In return, our two heroes agree to protect her home in her absence during the night of The Harmonic Convergence, ignoring the evil's impact this event will have on them.

What secrets will Arkane and Stella discover about their past? Will they manage to survive this night?
