About the adventure
The river flows ever onward—but the Reik carries more than boats. It carries secrets. It carries blood. It carries you. In this second chapter of the legendary Enemy Within campaign, you find yourself cast adrift—pursued by shadows, hunted by cults, and pulled into a mystery that winds from riverbanks to ruined towers, from alchemical horrors to things best left unnamed. A floating sandbox of Gothic horror, political scheming, and twisted fairy tales, Death on the Reik invites players into a dark mirror of the Empire, where nothing is as it seems, and every shore whispers your name. From the depths of the river to the echoes of forgotten bloodlines—your story is carved in current and flame.
Adventurers Wanted: Sail the Reik, Where Shadows Breathe The Reik is no ordinary river. It winds through the Empire like a vein through flesh—carrying life, death, memory... and horror. In this second chapter of the legendary Enemy Within campaign, the comforts of town and hearth are gone. Now, the river is your road, your home, and your peril. Bandits, beasts, and worse lurk beyond every bend. The water whispers secrets from sunken ruins, cursed cargo, and forgotten bloodlines. We seek intrepid souls—clever, bold, and just reckless enough—to brave this drifting nightmare. Whether you're fleeing your past or chasing something darker, the Reik will test your mettle and mark your soul. Experience storytelling shaped by immersive visuals, haunting soundscapes, and rich narrative tension. This is a gothic odyssey afloat—equal parts survival, mystery, and myth. Join Mythveil Chronicles. Claim your place in the tale. Your legend is written in current and blood. Do you dare to read it?
