As we march toward the December 5 release of Sorcery: Contested Realm’s highly anticipated next set, Gothic, the shadows shift, the wards tremble, and unseen forces gather at the edge of the realm.

Only a few brave allies dare to step forward in these final days, each bearing a sliver of insight into the calamities, wonders, and whispered prophecies that await.

While most of Gothic remains locked behind heavy stone and sealed scripture, next week, trusted voices will help light the path, one step at a time, each revealing a glimpse into the grim beauty of Sorcery's darkest hour yet.

Here’s what awaits next week!
