The Eye That Never Sleeps - Dhormorth by Daniel Arrhakis (2021)
With the music :Vyapada by Secession Studios
A figure moves slowly in the shadows, like a black cloak that spreads wherever it goes, in a space of time between the past and the future, which few can distinguish amidst the mists of an uncertain destiny.
Dhormorth ... a former guardian and master of the last Dark Sorcerers of Krudhyn, with the power to pass invisible they are only detectable by their shadow ... a dark legend that many prefer to remain lost in the labyrinth of times.
Without a body and much less a face, it seems to move with the breezes of the winter evenings before the storms, insinuating itself into men's thoughts and feeding their most hidden and secret dark desires ... and fears.
Legend has it that the Sorcerers are blind and always walked with a black crow with feathers with highlights of metallic blue, which are their eyes.
Truth or lie... what is certain is that black crows have been seen more frequently in recent times in the kingdom, as bad omens that foreshadow dark times...

- She's strong, I do not know how long the ice will hold her! - Says Lady of Elche as she uses her elemental powers to freeze that monster from the shadows.
- I'm trying to distance ourselves elsewhere in the labyrinth, it's not easy because I do not know it in detail. Give me your hand together we will! - Says Ahryadhe while concentrating telepathically, his powers of materialization and teleportation are strong but she needs to know the place.
