Overview

Misericorde: Volume One plunges players into the turbulent England of 1482, a land on the cusp of change yet still steeped in the shadows of the past. While the Renaissance blossoms elsewhere in Europe and the War of the Roses nears its end, a quiet convent in the north remains a world apart, until a shocking murder shatters its peace. Sister Catherine, a beloved and forward-thinking nun, has been found dead. In this isolated monastery, where secrets are as common as prayers, any of the resident sisters could be the culprit. The Mother Superior is baffled, and the task of uncovering the truth falls to you.
