Haltling
1 tap · stops the hand
Haltlings teach the truce in miniature. One tap ends them — but they exist to remind you: some things must pass untouched.
World 7 · Wildlight
Aurel
Warden of Wildlight
“I am Aurel. In Wildlight, Void must not be touched — hollow face, hollow heart. Leave it for the portal; do not break the truce.”

DO NOT TAP
Aurel looses Void — the hollow-faced unit you must never tap. Let it reach the portal or you fall. Clear the rest of Wildlight without breaking the truce.
The Chronicle
Wildlight was never a battlefield. It was a treaty written in pale fire.
Borders that are suggestions. Paths that ask permission. People who learned that not every threat wants your hand — and called that wisdom.
Aurel was a border-warden before he was a Warden. Not a hunter of monsters: a keeper of what must pass. He watched armies ruin themselves by striking what should have been left alone. He decided survival is knowing when to halt.
A Prismheart shard slept in a hollow of cold light. One night the wildfire rang without heat. Aurel answered. The first seal cooled on his brow like a vow that never blinks.
Aurel, Warden of Wildlight, does not flood or deceive. He sets a truce. His law is Void: do not tap; let them reach the portal.
His army is the proof of the other half — Haltlings — small reminders to stop the hand. Vigilants — watchers of the silence between strikes. Nullrach — void-touched bulk you may strike. Void — hollow face, hollow heart. Never tap it. Let it reach the portal.
Veyra freezes. Orrik slides. Kael counts. Morn plates. Nyssa floods. Lyra deceives. Aurel forbids.
In the game you feel him as Void among units you must still clear. Break the truce and you fall.
When his master seal cracks, the pale fire bows — and the key is yours.
The army
Aurel's army
Tap each unit as many times as its number. Some must never be touched.
1x 2x Vigilant
2 taps · watches the void
Vigilants keep the peace between touch and silence. Two taps to dismiss their watch — break the truce and Wildlight turns.
3x Nullrach
3 taps · void-touched bulk
Nullrach carries Wildlight’s weight without being Void. Three taps to drop it — leave true Void alone for the portal.
DO NOT TAP Void
do not tap · let it pass
Void is Aurel’s truce made flesh — hollow face, hollow heart. Never tap it. Let it reach the portal or you fall.
Aurel says: “Truce held. Good.”
Aurel says: “The pale fire noticed you.”
Aurel says: “Haltling dismissed. Keep your hand wise.”
The law
Aurel wrote this rule
Void — Do Not Tap
Never tap Void — let it reach the portal, or you fall.
Previous law still applies: Lyra — Mask.
The key
Aurel's Key
“The vow… loosened. Pale fire bowed. You honored the truce — the key is yours.”
Aurel yields. Wildlight bows.
