Antumbra
Antumbra
The antumbra is the region from which the occluding body appears entirely contained within the disc of the light source. If an observer in the antumbra moves closer to the light source, the apparent size of the occluding body increases until it causes a full umbra. An observer in this region experiences an annular eclipse.

A handful of unintentional heroes find themselves the inheritors of a dark legacy, forced to take up arms to save a world they themselves may have put in peril by their own ignorance…
