Meet an eclectic cast of characters, friend and foe alike, each with their own stories and quests. Combat a vast array of enemies and challenging bosses. Explore detailed levels and dungeons full of secrets and collectables to entice you off the beaten path. Discover your own legend, and see the world through lucid eyes.
