From BoardGameGeek
Fires of Thokaia expands the world of Light in the Dark with a gripping new chapter. A mysterious faction known as the Cult of Ember has emerged in the region of Thokaia, preaching salvation through flame and sacrifice. Their influence is spreading rapidly - corrupting townsfolk, manipulating the desperate, and waging a silent war against the healers who stand in their way. As the plague doctor, you must navigate this new treacherous land filled with dark rituals, indoctrinated followers, and corrupted beasts. Unravel the cult's secrets through new narrative-driven quests, face off against unique enemies, and acquire powerful new abilities that test your resolve and strategy in fresh, challenging ways. With more content, deeper choices, and heightened danger, Fires of Thokaia adds a darker edge to your journey. The Cult of Ember burns from within - will you extinguish the flame or be consumed by it? -description from the publisher
