The Last Glow of Lamplight

(Soulslike world, Cthulhu Mythos, and a tiny bit of rule-based horror) From the moment humanity first looked up at the sky, people yearned for the stars. But after the stars fell and the Outer Gods tore the world to pieces, no one dared gaze up at the night sky again. The gods ripped the world apart, and the disordered flow of time split it into different fragments. All that remained was a single ruin, its lights flickering, hidden within lands ruled by the gods. Under the shelter of those lights, the surviving humans sat together in the ruins, exploring ways to assassinate the gods, caught between using ancient spells and praying to the Outer Gods.

O Morning Star who bears the lantern, even if its light has gone out, please light a beacon for the world.

Zhang Niuzhuang: "It's just up ahead. We'll go over there and deal with that, uh, Crimson Moon thing, whatever it's called. Noita, stop praying! And you! This mission is important. Don't go to such extremes when something happens!"

Ji Duan: "I just want to see rivers of blood. How is that extreme? You should take a look at the weirdo next to me... Hey, what are you doing now?"

Zheng Chang: "I'm telling you, this secret-recipe dry-fried octopus tentacle is absolutely the best thing I've ever eaten... How am I not Zheng Chang? I'm super Zheng Chang, okay?"

Forget it. Just do your best.
