Imagine a world ravaged by catastrophe, known as the “Long Winter.” Plague, famine, and cold have wiped out entire nations, leaving behind only the ruins of civilization. Only a few survivors gathered in groups to endure the wasteland and rebuild life anew. It is into this grim and dangerous world that you must step.

Here, there are no familiar “classes” or levels. Instead, your fate is determined solely by skills: whether you become a blacksmith, a healer, or a skald depends on your choices, not on a system. Practice—and your abilities will grow with you. Four unique races await you—from resilient and hardy humans to mysterious beings with their own traits and weaknesses.

The world of Lament is open and alive, and its vast lands await explorers. You can fish and build boats, weave and forge, create your own shelter, or hide your identity behind a mask. Even when you log off, your character may continue working, earning, and developing.

Here, the atmosphere of survival reigns: nameless faces become close to you once you give them names. Emotions come alive through an advanced system of actions and descriptions. Every decision is a step toward salvation—or ruin.

This is not just a game; it is a trial in a bleak world where your strength, cunning, and perseverance will decide whether you endure the Age of Wind and Wolves.
