Nightingale story

In Nightingale's alternate reality, humans have been living together with the magical 'Fae' for centuries. During that time, the humans learned how to use magic and created a magical city called Nightingale. This city hosts portals that serve as gateways to other realms.

Unfortunately, the realms have been struck by a calamity known as The Pale. The survivors, scattered across different realms, are now trying to make their way back to Nightingale, believing the city to be the only place that may withstand The Pale.
