WARNING: the game contains murder (not described or shown) and mentions of blood.
Armed with the sword of the Dream King, you arrive in the Realm of Dreams to slay the beast responsible for a sudden wave of nightmares that befell your town of Ivehorn. You promised you'll do it, after all, and you will keep your promise.
But are you really the hero you think you are?

["Ill-gotten Light" is the seventh game in Oneiron series. All Oneiron games can be played as standalone titles, however, if you want more from the same universe, you might enjoy previous entries in mainline series, "Convergence" and "Let's Get Bitter Together".]
BEFORE YOU PLAY [REALLY IMPORTANT] [PLEASE READ.]
Due to some coding shenanigans, the game will break if you play it twice. If you intend to know both endings, save your game RIGHT BEFORE MAKING the branching choice ["Cry"/"Laugh"] and load your save after finishing the game. I'll fix it, but not now. I'm so tired.
