About this listen

In a world called Dennere, in the cursed land of the Nightshawl, where eternal darkness reigns, hope is a rare commodity. For Kai, a young Rune Runner who defies the witches’ curse, survival means braving the shadows to uncover ancient secrets.

When Kai unlocks the chest to a rare crystal dagger—rumored to hold the power to undo the witches’ dark legacy—he becomes a central figure in a perilous game of pursuit and power. Hunted by void-born creatures and by Velthera, the most ruthless of the coven, Kai must journey with and learn to trust an enigmatic young woman seeking to awaken the crystal’s power.

As the darkness closes in, Kai’s mission becomes more than survival—it’s a battle to restore a fractured world and reignite a light strong enough to lift the eternal night.

Will Kai unlock the secrets of the past before the darkness claims him? Or will he succumb to the shadows’ grasp?
