Adoriel’s Tears.

Adoriel’s Tears are a gift.

A light offered to the inhabitants of Terrybiël to end the conflicts that oppress the Four Peoples and eradicate the evil that was crawling on the continent.

But every light has its shadow and sometimes gifts are poisonous. For if magic comes from the heart, it takes a soul to master it, and fortunate are those who manage to find it. Without a counterpart, without a familiar, a Tear is nothing.

Just a curse. A child of madness. The darkness on Terrybiël. What must be destroyed before they destroy you.

Adoriel’s Tears are a gift. At least for the others.

You’re long past the point where your heart and soul should be singing together, and yet you’re gifted. That’s what made you lose everything you had as a child. Now, an opportunity presents itself. Should you take it, is it the right thing to do?

Without a soul and with a magic you can’t control, the journey will be a risky one.

Especially since the smell of madness and blood is getting heavier and heavier on Terrybiël. Will you be able to fix everything, to find what you’re looking for? Nothing is less sure.

And yet, this voice is calling you, whispering : Come ! Come to me ! Come to me and don’t be afraid.

So…Shall we begin ?

Writing update

Hi guys, so…Not only did I underestimate how long it would take me to write the latest conversation between Mc and Sirius, but I also completely failed to anticipate the heat wave that hit France last week.

As a result, I’m a full week behind schedule. With temperatures reaching 40 degrees Celsius (107.6°F) outside and over 34 degrees Celsius (93.2°F) inside—without air conditioning, because, well, in Europe, that’s not really a thing—I didn’t turn on my computer at all.

I survived by eating watermelon and sleeping on the floor.

And now I’m back to writing. I have 7 choices to write, taking into account 3 hidden variables, so it’s as if I had 21 different scenarios to write.

It’s a lot of work, but I’m thinking of those who love to replay the game and try different combinations…

I’m going to keep at it, especially since this next update will be the public release.

Of course, paying members will get to read it early, but then… then the demo will be out there for everyone to see!

I’ll have finished the childhood arc, !!!

After all this time and all these words, it’s like I’ve written an entire novel in a single arc. 😂 (Never again!)

Anyway. You can read an excerpt from one of the choices I’m working on right now, featuring a main character who misses Ashlyen and loves their father. (So cute it brought me to tears.) On Kofi or Patreon

Arielle ramble + Writing progress.

Hi guys,

Sorry for being so quiet these past few days. I didn’t have anything to say because I couldn’t write. I’ve been having car trouble, which has really put a dent in my financial situation, and I just wasn’t in the right frame of mind to write or even draw. Plus, I had to take a training course for work… which, by the way, I still haven’t finished.

But! I have a few days ahead of me, until Friday. So, between appointments with my pulmonologist, I’ll be able to get back to writing properly and drawing a little! In fact, I’ve already done it! I spent my Friday evening and a good part of my Saturday afternoon doing both, so here’s a little sneak peek.

Like a curse, you’ve spent years taming the shape of his absence. You couldn’t know it would show later in the form of a lynx.
