Νυχτερινή Πένα

In the twenty-first book of the Lone Wolf series, a new era begins. The reader, who as always is the hero, is no longer Lone Wolf but one of the Kai. Lone Wolf has reestablished the Kai Lords that the Darklords once destroyed, and the hero is one of the first Grand Masters of the New Order. The reader can choose their name and even their gender; a female reader can create a female character if she wishes.

The rules remain the same, with some differences, the most significant being the limitation on the damage that the hero can heal, making them more dependent on potions and healing items and perhaps more cautious about the risks they take. More disciplines are available, and the hero starts with four of them. One could say they are in the same position as Lone Wolf in the thirteenth book.

The hero’s mission? At the end of the twentieth book, Lone Wolf returns to Sommerlund with the mythical Moonstone of the Shianti. He wishes to keep it safe in the Monastery, but this quickly proves impossible; its power is so great that it even distorts the natural order. It must be returned to its creators, who live in isolation on the distant island of Lorn. The hero takes on the task of transporting it there via Elzian, the capital of Dessi. In this book, the goal is to reach that city.

The journey will take him through Vassagonia, whose capital Lone Wolf saw in the fifth book, and we will explore the land of sand much further. We will also encounter the land of the Dessi magicians, which, although friendly to the Kai, is still filled with dangerous enemies.
