welcome, shadow-born

I’m a 2D digital game artist who has been captivated by Enderal for nearly a decade. Its atmospheric world, dark tone and unforgettable characters have stayed with me ever since. Inspired by that lasting connection, I hope to create a meaningful piece for our 10-year anniversary fanzine; one that does justice to the game and truly honors the spirit of its unique world.

I’m Ray, or Ralex Sol! I’m a writer and artist with an eclectic sum of interests, mostly in the fantasy and scifi genres. I fell in love with Enderal when I first played it in 2021 and have since dived deeper into the world of Vyn through Nehrim in 2024 and now Myar Aranath in 2026. In joining this zine, I want to share with other fans my perspective on the gut-wrenching peace found both in Enderal’s most tranquil moments and its most tragic ones.

I played Enderal pretty soon after it was released. It was good timing; I was going through a lot of changes in my life and needed to work through it by proxy. Wren, my Prophet, went through a whole lot for that mess. Fortunately, we both came out of it with some much needed catharsis.
