Selfloss

Alongside the sea life, various humanoid beings populate the land, from giants who once warred with humans to an elven tribe and even the witch Baba Yaga, complete with her walking hut mounted on chicken legs

The title refers to a ritual, enabling individuals to move on after the loss of a loved one. Playing a recently deceased old man, stuck in a more literal limbo, it’s your job to perform it. All you need is your light-giving magic staff, a personal item belonging to the deceased, and the soul of a fish. Why a fish? Well, Selfloss is steeped in Slavic and Icelandic folklore, which manifests here in a reverence for the sea. The plane you traverse is home to all sorts of aquatic creatures – flying whales, jellyfish gods and venerable turtles. Whether you’re familiar with its mythical influences or not, it’s a fascinating backdrop.
