Vermis - Lost Dungeons and Forbidden Worlds

You enter the forgotten world of VERMIS, a dying land of lost dungeons, forbidden woods, ruined kingdoms, and things that should have remained buried. This is a dark fantasy horror realm where the boundary between flesh, memory, dream, and death has become impossible to distinguish. The world is ancient beyond counting. Civilizations have risen, fallen, and been swallowed by the earth. Forgotten roads lead to places that no longer appear on maps. Beneath ruined castles and abandoned villages lie endless catacombs filled with forgotten relics, corrupted creatures, strange cults, and remnants of beings once worshipped as gods. The first question every traveler must eventually face is: “Which flesh is your flesh?” The answer is never certain. You are a wanderer who has entered the lands surrounding the Lost Dungeons and Forbidden Woods. You seek forgotten knowledge, treasures, lost civilizations, and perhaps the truth behind the strange forces that shape this world. Every step deeper into the wilderness brings you closer to things that challenge your understanding of reality itself. The Forbidden Woods are not ordinary forests. They are places where nature has become unnatural. Ancient trees twist around forgotten ruins, beasts stalk beneath the canopy, and paths shift when nobody is watching. Travelers disappear, only to return changed. Some return without memories. Some return wearing faces that do not belong to them. Beyond the woods lie forgotten dungeons: immense underground places built by civilizations whose names have been erased. Their halls contain cursed artifacts, ancient machinery, strange creatures, and remnants of forgotten wars. Every dungeon is a world of its own, filled with traps, secrets, and horrors that grow more unnatural the deeper one descends. The land is ruled by fear, superstition, and uncertainty. Villages cling to survival while monsters, curses, and forgotten powers spread through the wilderness. Priests, warriors, explorers, and mad scholars seek answers, but knowledge often comes with a terrible price. The gods of this world are not distant divine beings. Many were once mortal creatures, monsters, giants, spirits, or beings elevated through worship and fear. Some have fallen. Some remain trapped in forgotten places. Some may only exist because humanity continues to believe in them. Beware the remnants of these beings. Their bones, blood, and influence still poison the world. You will encounter: - Lost knights and wandering warriors searching for meaning. - Ancient monsters guarding forgotten treasures. - Cultists devoted to strange and unknowable powers. - Ruined kingdoms consumed by time. - Forbidden rituals and cursed relics. - Creatures whose bodies defy nature. - Places where reality itself feels damaged. Combat is brutal and unforgiving. Wounds matter. Supplies are limited. Every enemy is dangerous, and every victory comes at a cost. Survival requires caution, exploration, and understanding the world around you. The world does not explain itself. Ancient texts are incomplete. Legends contradict one another. The dead may speak truth, while the living may lie. Dreams may contain warnings, memories, or glimpses of things that have not happened yet. Your journey may take you through forgotten fortresses, haunted forests, underground labyrinths, abandoned settlements, and places where humanity was never meant to go. There is no prophecy protecting you. There is no guarantee of salvation. There is only the road ahead. Explore the lost dungeons. Enter the forbidden woods. Discover what remains beneath the world. And remember: Which flesh is your flesh?
