Pentari: Second Dawn - Interactive Science Fiction

"You will come here and get books that will open your eyes and your ears, and your curiosity, and turn you inside out." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Interactive Science Fiction Fantasy Adventure

The Magical Sequel to Pentari: First Light

After saving the Kingdom of Pentari from ruin and total destruction in First Light, you have ascended from the ranks and installed as Governor of the new sixth city of the empire across the Quondem Ocean. This bold move to expand the kingdom to the distant shores of Umbra comes with great rewards and much uncertainty.

Lest you forget - the rogue wizards who nearly destroyed the Empire hailed from Umbra.

The growing young city of Lindon is making quite a mark on the natives; some embrace your settlement while others shun it and seek to snuff it out. An ancient threat known only in legends grows in strength outside Lindon's walls. As the leader of the thriving young City of Lindon, you must protect your people and the interests of the Empire. Taking matters into your own hands, many dangerous tasks lie in front of you as well as a line in the sand you are dared to cross.

The Magic of Fantasy Adventure is Alight in the City of Lindon

More than most people, you understand the power and glory of true accomplishment. Nothing embodies this sense of achievement more than winning the day in a fantasy adventure.

Now imagine the sensations of power and glory intensified by interactive fiction - amplified because you are the main character in the story.

From the very start, world-moving magics are at your fingertips as is the finest weapon available in the Kingdom as you go forth to the heart of dark territory to the very source of evil as you seek to snuff it out.

Enchanted creatures, a plethora of magic spells, powerful artifacts and curious characters are to be found at every turn urging you on or edging you out.

When all is said and done your wits and your will will determine the outcome of this adventure.

Writing As Powerful As Any You've Ever Read.

"I just had to tell you that when the governor met the apprentice in the coal mine, it was priceless." - June F.

Evoking emotion through the prose coupled with the ground-breaking crossover with The Apprentice makes for a science fiction experience unlike any you've had before.

That's because The Apprentice and Second Dawn were written simultaneously giving you two different perspectives of the exact same story. In Second Dawn you are a seasoned adventurer of high rank while in The Apprentice you are a student mage who didn't make the grade yet.

This intriguing double-shot of fantasy adventure lends new perspective to the tale as you make your way across Lindon, through coal mines and mountain ranges, along a dusty road and aside sandy beaches to end up on the borders of Umbra, the City of the Dark Mages.

When you decide to engage in both adventures you can take them on simultaneously or one at a time. Either way, you can count on a series of adventures and good fun as you rescue Lindon from total destruction.

A Fantasy Come True!

We've all come to expect moments of mirth and merriment in fantasy adventure and Second Dawn continues that tradition with lots of practical jokes, zany outcomes to dozens of different actions you can take balanced nicely with dramatic moments, for better and for worse, that can take your adventure to an unexpected ending or a privileged outcome.

Every element of good science fiction is present which is sure to give every fan of fantasy adventure hours upon hours of entertainment.

Philosophy and Fantasy Converge

Many of the greatest writers of all time have intertwined philosophy with fiction leading to a thought-provoking story that leaves the reader contemplating life and existence through an entirely new prism of perspective.

One of the underlying premises behind Second Dawn is a centuries-old concept illustrated in modern times. As entertaining as it is enlightening, you may very well end up a wiser adventurer at the end of your sojourn.

All of this and so much more is waiting for you in your copy of Pentari: Second Dawn.

A Cherished Reunion with New Acquaintances & Old Friends

Calling upon old friends from First Light such as Gibson and the notorious Imp, much history and humor is delivered to enhance your adventure. More than that, you may well meet up with The Apprentice a couple of times depending upon where you (and The Apprentice!) are within the story.
