Moonbeam Road · First route

Start with what you know.

Choose the world already in your hands. We will open one defensible path through the Multiverse, not impose a single reading order.

The blade becomes the wound
You know

Elric

A doomed emperor sustained and consumed by a soul-drinking blade.

Why Corum comes next

Both bear the Eternal Champion’s burden. Elric’s power arrives through a blade that feeds; Corum’s arrives through wounds remade as instruments across planes. The same struggle changes body, material and consequence.

Next

Corum

A wounded Vadhagh prince whose silver hand and altered eye open other planes.

Your first Moonbeam Road

Elric → Corum

Three stops, not a fixed chronology. Each one explains what changes and why it earns its place.

  1. Elric of MelnibonéBegin with the doomed emperor you know: fragile, dependent on Stormbringer and trapped between agency and appetite.
  2. The Eternal ChampionHold the shared pattern: one burden expressed through different bodies, worlds and alignments of Law, Chaos and Balance.
  3. Corum · The Knight of the SwordsCross to another wounded prince. Replace the consuming blade with a silver hand and an eye that expose several planes at once.
