In the face of such, keep your wits close, but do not trust them. Trust not yourself, nor your senses. Your time, nor your wit.
For where time has stopped, but its flow has no end. For when passion calls, but hate runs deep.
Heed this warning, and do not wait. For laws of nature and laws of man. Have no logic, and have no weight."
In a game inspired by the lore of Dragon and Fae, Alaris is a fantasy-romance visual novel that lets you customize your character for a dynamic and immersive experience steeped in magic. With choices that can shape your story, relationships, and even personality, will you choose to be brave, kind, wise, or charismatic? Only you know the answer to your fate.
