About Misericorde: Volume One
Misericorde: Volume One places you in 1482 England, amid the waning War of the Roses and a burgeoning Renaissance. A beloved nun, Sister Catherine, has been murdered in a secluded convent, and you, an Anchoress bound to a cell, are the only sister who could not have committed the crime. Your task is to investigate the murder, discern truth from deception among the remaining sisters, and uncover whether the convent hides a supernatural secret before the bishop shuts it down.
