She and her twin sister Willia were born with the extraordinary power to protect their village from the encroaching darkness and monsters, Tacenda with her Warding Song and Willia with her skills as a warrior. With this power, however, comes an accompanying curse--Tacenda becomes blind during the daytime and Willia becomes blind during the night, meaning neither can see at the same time. One day, strange geists attack the villagers. Ignoring Tacenda's Warding Song, They flow through the village, taking each and every one of Tacenda's family, friends and neighbors. Having lost all she has known and loved, she sets out to confront the Man of the Manor. == Characters == == Setting == The novella is set in the ''Magic: The Gathering'' multiverse. In this multiverse, reality is separated into innumerable planes, each of which is a world or universe separated from all others by a void called the Blind Eternities. Though the planes are generally separate, there are certain individuals who are born with a "spark" and can become Planeswalkers, capable of shifting themselves instantaneously from plane to plane. Each plane is generally a unique setting influenced by real-world historical or literary settings. The plane of Innistrad, where ''Children of the Nameless'' is set, is primarily influenced by 18th and 19th century gothic horror. The entirety of the story takes place in the Approaches, a remote area of the central Innistrad province of Kessig.
