In the shadowy annals of history, there exists a chronicle that recounts the expedition of Draven Markham, a man whose name was destined to bee synonymous with the forsaken realm known as Nytharctica. It was in the year of our Lord 1925 when this intrepid explorer set forth on a journey into the very heart of the unknown.
The adventurer, Mr. Markham, bore no significant lineage or wealth to his name, but he possessed an indomitable spirit of curiosity that propelled him into the obscurities of the world. Driven by tales whispered in the corners of academia and delving deep into the most obscure tomes of forgotten lore, he heard tell of Nytharctica—a realm that lay outside the purview of reality.
Draven's journey to Nytharctica began not in exultation but with measured trepidation.

He embarked on his expedition alone, for such was the peculiar nature of his quest, that it garnered few followers or panions.
Nytharctica, the mysterious realm which he sought to explore, had been described by many as a land forgotten by time, untouched by the laws of reality. It was a sprawling expanse of ever-shifting terrain, dominated by obsidian spires that reached skyward in eternal challenge to the heavens.

These entities, grotesque and ever-mutating in form, whispered cryptic hints to Draven, offering glimpses of the Abyssal Codex that was his ultimate goal. But in their cryptic guidance, they concealed the true price of their knowledge.
