Effugio: An Intimate Portrait of the Celestial Age

by Joshua Venz

Effugio is a rich world full of thousands of years of lore and stories, however this small look into the world gives a description of the Celestial Age. The Celestials are god like beings that control the five fundamental powers in the universe, and reside as overlords in the world of Effugio. But when the powers given to man corrupt the mortals, wars and conflicts push the societies of Effugio apart. A world spanning empire harnessing the power of pure energy, a bloodline of people who use body mass as their strength, men from Earth trapped long from home, a being who can summon the power of the atmospheric storms all face off against an embodiment of pure evil that arises during the Celestial Age. The villainous Nightman longs to rid the world of magic and the influence of the Celestials, but at what cost? This book dives into the history of empires, deities, beasts and men, and their race to prove the Nightman wrong and stop his evil crusade. But can they argue against the fact, that man is inherently evil, or will they succumb to their own demons and finally realize how little choice they have in their lives. Effugio is a dark world with a wide variety of locations and characters, and hidden within this work is a larger set of secrets that reveal intimate facets of the nature of humanity.
