In 2022 Scientists found an opening to a gate that leads to another dimension in the northernmost of Ohio.  They decided to use the gate to travel to the other dimension, and explore it. However, when they arrived in the other dimension, they found that it was full of monsters. These monsters were called the "Shadowfell", and they were very powerful. The scientists were able to defeat some of the monsters, but many more escaped back into the other dimension.

One of the scientists, a man named Quandale, was able to capture a monster and study it. He found something extremely important, a key to close the gate, however, the monster then awoke and brutally killed Quandale.

Most of the Monsters from Ohio, which we call the ''Shadowfell'' have not even tried to leave the north of Ohio. Rumour has it the other dimension that Quandale has opened is the most beautiful place on earth, during the day, however, during the night the ''Shadowfell'' awakes and causes chaos.

Humanity has created blades of light to fight off the monsters of Ohio, my father created them, but sadly, he died. My father gave me a different blade, it's a dark blade. For the past 200 years, humanity has fought against the ''Shadowfell'' who have cursed blades. Nobody knew of the dark blade, but my father told me that he found this blade down in the deep dimension of Ohio. Unfortunately, he went too deep into Ohio, and died by a high-ranking member of the ''Shadowfell''.

Now I've made it my goal to seal the breach in the northernmost of Ohio.

The Shadowfell are creatures that live within our world, yet do not belong here. Their existence is unknown to us, as they only come out at night. It seems like these monsters can be defeated if you know how to fight them, or have a weapon strong enough to kill one. If you don't have either of those things, then your best bet would be to run away.

Rumour has it that there used to be a group of people who lived near the Shadowfell, and they had no idea what was going on around them. One day, all of their children disappeared without warning, and nobody could find any trace of where they might have gone. Then, after about two weeks, the parents began to disappear also. Finally, the last remaining parent vanished. That was over 150 years ago, and now the Shadowfell still roam free.

I have planned to cross northern Ohio by sunrise and then camp at night. I have to pass the valleys of the dead, which were created by the skulls of people who dared venture into Ohio at nightfall.

"What did you say?" asked the old woman. She looked up from her knitting and stared intently at him. Her eyes narrowed slightly, and she cocked her head to the side ever so slightly before continuing: "You're lying."

He shook his head slowly. "No," he said quietly. "It's true. You must believe me!"

She sighed heavily, shaking her head again. "If you want to die, go ahead. But I will not help you. Go home, boy, and forget this foolishness.

My name Is Law Marshall, and I will train as hard as I can, to become a legendary dark swordsman, and defeat the ''Shadowfell''.
