“I stumbled through the endless reeds, more and more unsure of the ghosts, myself, and my location, desperate for the sound of a familiar voice. If someone had called my name, I would have answered without thinking, whether it be friend or foe.” – The Record of Eihi
In the upcoming Shadowveil: Legend of the Five Rings video game, you play as a Crab Clan samurai undertaking expeditions into the Shadowlands, a blighted realm full of demons, monsters, and undead. The rest of the clans of the Emerald Empire have only heard stories about the Shadowlands thanks to the Wall, a massive structure defended by the Crab that keeps the horrors of the Shadowlands from invading the empire.
In this fourth part out of five by David Annandale, glimpse the terrors of the Shadowlands as recorded by a samurai known only as Eihi.
Read the fourth part of the story on the Legend of the Five Rings website or listen to the audiobook version, narrated by Heather Jinmaku, in the link below.
The fourth part is also available in PDF format here.
