The Nine Oaths

The Nine Oaths

Eight strangers. Nine ancient pillars. One oath that will cost them everything.

A 2.5D turn-based RPG. Coming to Steam in 2027.

Eight travelers. One oath.

Long before the Light fell.

Eight strangers are drawn to a hilltop circle of nine standing stones: a guard captain, a priestess, a hunter, an astronomer, a thief, a sell-sword, a weaver and a lighthouse keeper. Each had their own reason to be on the road. Together they swear an oath to protect the world.

This is their story, told from the inside, by people who believe they are saving her.

A prequel to Echoes of Creation. You don't need to have played it.

Then go anywhere

Find the other four travelers in any order, each in their own corner of the world.

✦

Three chapters each

Every traveler has three chapters, Fireside Talks with their companions, and an ending they all walk into with their eyes open.

A battle against a rot colossus
Battles with real depth

Find the weakness. Break the guard.

Wear down a foe's Bulwark, then chain Bind, Expose and Sunder for crushing damage. Store Valor and Surge to strike several times in one turn.

Swear the Oath: link all four travelers into a single finishing chain, and later unleash each Warden's own Oath.

Every idea arrives one at a time, taught by a fight built for it. No walls of tutorial text.
