'Visions and reading the omens had always been Kameko's curse. Something dark was on its way to the village, try as she may to save them, they would not listen. Had she waited too long or was it her that heralded the arrival of the ravens?'

    'Throughout the centuries, humanity has taken meaning from objects and natural events as warnings foretelling the future. The fate of kingdoms and empires have long been entrusted to skilled soothsayers and oracles, and their ability to interpret these Omens. Can you fight against the prophecy of your death, even when your kingdom is divided? While some seek wisdom and guidance from the Omens, others instead tempt fate, using the omen against another for their own personal gain. Then there are those who cling tightly to superstitions, becoming puppets to their foreshadowing. Do they really speak of the future? or has humanity become too blind to see the truth?

    'Join us as we delve into the world of the Omens and discover their true meaning.

    'Will you know signs when they appear?'
