What is Dawnwalker?
A rescue story with no clean route.
Rebel Wolves calls the structure a narrative sandbox. You can seek allies, undermine Brencis’s court, chase secrets or force your own path, but major actions spend pieces of a 30-day budget. You will not have time for every quest.
The important mercy: exploration itself does not tick the deadline. Roam, scout and plan for as long as you like. The clock moves when you choose.
