Kickstart live!

“It’s warm scent on the breeze was its traitor. These delicious crunchy crawlies rarely climb from their underground burrows, let alone impale themselves on hooks; suspended by a small balloons - maybe it’s just my lucky day.”

Hiraeth : Dawn’s Hunt is our first comic project here at Hearthship Studios and we’re loving every minute of it. It is a 23 page (subject to expand upon this depending on Stretch Goals) short story of a Wanderer traversing this harsh, nightmarish world - is she hunting, or being hunted is unknown for now.

You guys! My sister and Matt, from Hearthship Studios, just launched their first Kickstarter! They’ve done the official cover art for The Golden Rose - check it here, if you haven’t already seen it! I love it so much ( ཀ ʖ̯ ཀ)  - and this comic seems to be amazing!

If you’re interested and are willing to, please consider supporting their project! By pledging 4£, you get the digital copy and all possible stretch goals.

And if this just isn’t for you, a reblog to help spread their work to others who might enjoy it would mean a lot. ♡ This is a passion project, driven by nothing but the love to tell stories. I know this blog is mostly focused on the written word, but who can deny the beauty when word is paired with imagery?

When passion creates art?

“As the artist mourns his fortune So the Dynasty falls to crumble, And the two branches snatch asunder”

On the night Emperor Nero draws his last breath, a wave of destruction sweeps the Roman Empire to dust. The shining jewel of the West vanishes without a trace and so does change the course of History.

A millennia later, and the dark Inquisition roams the lands but it hunts far more than public heresies. The sovereigns of Europe hide behind their empty thrones while their people are left to govern themselves. Pirates control the seas and outlaws battle for land. Tensions rise and somewhere far below the earth, an Ancient Madness stirs in its sleep.

You are a recent member of The White Company, a mercenary guild on the far side of the law. Your job consists mostly of hunting artifacts and roaming ruins that the Church has forbidden to mention. One of your expeditions, however, leads you down a path that is much deeper than you ever anticipated.

Do you believe in destiny?

Play the Demo!

Current Wordcount: 504k (code excluded)

Average playthrough length: 83k

This is the final update of the public demo! For those of you who played before, there is no new narrative content. This update consists mostly of background work - code polishing, typo and bug cleaning. As well as some slight expanding of some choices. All dull, sluggish work but work that must be done all the same.  

It’s the Rose as polished as I can make it! 🌹 I hope it suffices while I finish the game ♡♡

i’ve just been thinking about how english and americans online expect everyone to know their literature and poetry, their ~classics~ when literally every other country in the world also has an incredible and interesting literary history that is probably more relevant to it’s own citizens, like i’m not saying you shouldn’t branch out to intl lit because i think everyone should but that includes english first language speakers who have never picked up a translated book in their lives

Shirley Jackson’s The Haunting of Hill House was published sixty years ago today. The novel begins with one of the best openings I have ever read:

“No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute reality; even larks and katydids are supposed, by some, to dream. Hill House, not sane, stood by itself against its hills, holding darkness within; it had stood for eighty years and might stand for eighty more. Within, walls continued upright, bricks met neatly, floors were firm, and doors were sensibly shut; silence lay steadily against the wood and stone of Hill House, and whatever walked there, walked alone.”
