Chapter One: Beyond the Forest

This chapter serves as a dark bridge between chronicles, chronicling the fulfillment of the ominous signs of Kupala. As the late 19th century bleeds into the modern era, coteries will witness the brutal evolution of clans and the shifting dynamics of ancient factions across Transylvania and Eastern Europe.

From the desolate peaks of the Borgo Pass to the nightmarish depths of the Cathedral of Flesh, ancient horrors stir. The journey leads into the heart of Vienna, where the Tremere guard their torpid elders within the grandiose Fortschritt Foundation, ultimately culminating in apocalyptic confrontations that span from the Sabbat strongholds of Mexico City back to the cursed, storm-torn ruins of Romania where the demon Kupala threatens to awaken.
