Eight paths, one day, mysteries abound.

Set in the quiet and isolated town of Aldmirham, the last settlement before solid land gives way to a vast, dangerous marshland known as the Mire. You follow one of eight characters over the span of one day, and begin to glimpse the mysteries ensnaring them all.

  • Eight different routes, told from the perspectives of eight different characters, taking place over the span of a single day.
  • Chose how you interact with the language of the story, with three options controlling how Old English terms and phrases are displayed.
  • Explore the town of Aldmirham and the folk who live there at a relaxed pace.
  • Word, Character, and Places Logs allowing you to glimpse the wider world and its happenings.
  • Begin to build a custom character for future games:
    • Currently, this character's gender and profession are selectable
    • The child of this character's gender can be chosen, and they can be named
    • More options to follow in future demo updates

If the characters or locations in this story seem familiar to you, welcome back, you probably read the demo Myrk Mire on Dashingdon written in ChoiceScript.

That demo is a much earlier version of the story universe, a lot of the events and chararcters have changed, and none of it should be considered strictly canon any more, but I know some folks really like the demo, so I've left it up for now.
