Story

“A thousand years have passed, and a thousand more shall follow. The darkness will spread, and with it calamity follows, looking for the perfect vessel to wreak havoc upon the world.”

Welcome to Shel-a’fhifhe, or more commonly known as The Eye of the Six, the world you live in, the world that never turns. You are but a measly human, naught but a baby in the eyes of the universe who grew up with their best friend, Clodiagh (though most call her Cloe) and her parents in your home country, the country of Man, or, as many call it: Lapi’di Terrae, the land of stone. You have never seen the night, only knowing the light as the sun never sets.

Even in hundreds of thousands of years, you will not be remembered as anything but a tiny dot in the world’s history, yet even then someday the gods will have to intervene before the world they created is destroyed. They were not the the cause of your curse, but their eyes see all, and they set their sights on you, whether to aid you or not.

This is the prophecy that was foretold a thousand years ago, lost to the world and known by very few: a vessel of calamity it calls for, and who would have ever guessed that vessel be you? But is that entity truly the calamity to bring darkness upon the world, or another entity who decided to make you its home? And what will you choose? Will you step into the darkness and embrace the shadows, or stay in the light and cast away the darkness?

Romance Options

Clodiagh Ó Urthaile OR Сloe Hurley (she/her)

Harsh but caring, her rough exterior can be intimidating to most but as her childhood friend, you know that she has a softer side to her. Through your toughest times, she has never left you and has comforted you to her fullest extent, even if it means slapping you on the back of your head and telling you to snap out of it or holding you through the tears.

The two of you will be encountering truly horrific times in the adventures ahead, and your relationship could either grow stronger, much more than you could have imagined, or fizzle out into bitterness. How will the two of you handle the darkness ahead?

Orion Saiphorus (he/they)

Both of you went to school together, becoming friends due to the two of you being friends with Cloe, and have had a rocky relationship since then because of his lack of seriousness. Even after being friends with them for so long, you barely know anything about them, Orion brushing off every attempt you tried to make with flirty and witty remarks.

Could this perilous journey give you a chance to make amends and perhaps get even closer with them, or will things end just as bad as they started? Will you be able to ward off the darkness surrounding him?

Alohim-Alavel OR Himallah-Chol'sod (xe/xer)

The whole reason you went to the Elfhe’chol, xe are known as a renowned scholar, magi, and a member of the Chol’sod-Misrah (Council of the Sands). Xe is obviously hiding something from you, but the question is what? Perhaps xe doesn’t even truly know xemself and don’t realize that xy're not the only one hiding things.

Will you be able to crack xyr sharp exterior and help them uncover the truths that have been hidden and unlock a new side of xem, or will xe deny you and your help, turning a blind eye to the harsh truth? Can you help xem overcome the darkness within?

Saorlaith "Shiloh" Ó Tighearnaigh (she/they)

A person who seemingly came out of nowhere, the both of you became friends almost immediately due to her gentle and carefree nature. They have a beautiful face that only true Fae could have, but eyes that have seen thousands of years' worth of turmoil and destruction.

Will their guidance be the only thing to help you survive the upcoming disasters, or will they lead you further into destruction? Will they be able to purify your darkness?

Shadow (customizable)

The shadow that has bound itself to you, they are both pretentious and humble; sarcastic and genuine; playful and stout. The two-facedness of them makes the people around you be wary of them, warning you not to trust them. But that is not their decision to make now, is it?

It is not easy to gain their trust, and even harder to gain their love. Will you be able to confide in them, even as you discover more about them and their species? Will you be able to embrace the darkness?
