You are the new Emberwarden. Every day a face from the caldera climbs the steps to your throne and brings you a choice. Swipe left or right — and decide their fate and your own.
Please one and you starve another. Let any single balance tip too far in either direction and your reign ends — in four very different ways.
The temper of the volcano that rules your kingdom. Anger it and the caldera erupts; appease it too much and the people lose their fire.
Too high → EruptionThe love of the caldera's citizens. Neglect them and the mob rises to the gates. Pamper them and they take your mercy for weakness.
Too low → UprisingThe sacred treasury of your vault. Spend it all and greed hollows the kingdom. Hoard it and your court turns on a ruler who will not rule.
Too low → RuinThe sacred belief that holds everything together. Too little and despair swallows the realm. Too much and your own zeal burns everything you swore to protect.
Too high → PyreA scheming lord, a blind prophet who reads the smoke, a stubborn forge-master, a little fox with cinders for fur — each brings a dilemma with no easy answer.
A noble with old debts and older grudges, who arrives with flattery and leaves with whatever you let slip.
She reads the caldera's fumes and speaks in riddles that become more literal than you expect.
Stubborn as cooled lava, loyal as iron — but his furnace always needs more than the vault can spare.
A small fox with ember-fur and enormous eyes, who appears when something important is about to change.
Every decision shifts the four meters. The effects of your choice are hinted before you commit — but the full consequences ripple through the reign long after. Survive four turning seasons and the Phoenix may name you keeper of a flame that will outlast you.
"The smoke shows two paths, Emberwarden. One leads through fire. The other leads around it — but arrives at the same place, only colder."
Accept the harder path. Burn away what must be burned.
Choose the safer route. Let the smoke lie unread.
From utter ruin to quiet rebirth. Unlock them one reign at a time and fill your Codex — each ending a different version of how the flame goes out or rises again.
Rare artifacts that quietly bend the rules of your reign — each one shifting a meter, altering what choices appear, or reshaping the consequences you face.
Your vault loses Embers 20% slower. The stones remember a time before poverty.
Shows the hidden meter effects of your next choice before you commit.
Once per reign, Little Soot visits twice — and the second visit carries no consequences.
Optional ruler actions that steady a failing reign — at a cost. Sacrifice Embers to calm the Mountain, or spend Faith to mend the People. Use them wisely; every Rite has a price.
Spend 20 Embers to reduce Mountain by 15 and restore Faith by 8.
Spend 18 Embers to restore People by 20. Costs Faith −5.
Spend 10 Faith to steady both Mountain and People by 8 each.
