What is the story behind the Silent Hope game, as per Steam?
In a peaceful kingdom, tragedy befell its inhabitants as a catastrophic event unfolded. The once-harmonious community was thrown into chaos, leading to a climate of deceit and betrayal.
Amidst the turmoil, the king, wielding formidable magic, stripped the people of their ability to speak and vanished into the depths of the abyss.
The Princess, his daughter, was consumed by grief, shedding an endless stream of tears that eventually encased her within a colossal teardrop-shaped crystal, trapping her in an eternal state of sorrow.
After many, many years passed, when the event became distant memories, an event took place. Seven rainbow-colored lights emerged from the depths of the abyss. These rays of hope appeared before the crystallized Princess, presenting themselves as seven heroes who were prepared to answer the Princess’ call for help.
Why did the king abandon his daughter? And why did he strip away his people’s ability to speak?
