Hi everyone! I'm making this announcement to let you know that my dark boys love / boys hate visual novel, All Scars and Starlight, has been released!
Scars is a grim story about a deposed king, Yuel, who is taken prisoner by the leader of a rebellion and his older cousin, Tavi. Though Yuel initially despises Tavi for overthrowing him, complicated feelings begin to develop between the pair as Tavi refuses to have Yuel executed, despite the warnings of his advisors.
Wanting to keep Yuel safe, Tavi hides Yuel away in the palace where his political enemies cant hurt him - but the biggest threat to Yuels life soon proves to be Yuel himself.
The story has choices and multiple endings, so theres a few different ways it can pan out. Its quite a grim story which deals with topics like self-harm, suicide, and sexual assault, and the main pairing are cousins. The story also contains explicit sexual content, so you need to be 18+ to check it out.
You can check Scars out here, if you're interested:

Scars takes place in the same universe as a couple of my other VNs, All Ashes and Illusions and All Idleness and Ephemera. If you want to read more about the world setting in Scars you can check those out here!

And I've written some cute alternate universe stories about Yuel and Tavi that're completely divorced from the world present in Ashes, Idleness, and Scars, which can be found here!

Phew. That's a lot of words about Yuel and Tavi haha ;;;
I really have written a lot of stories about them over the last couple of years, haven't I?
I feel like I've talked a lot so I'll end here. If you want some quality BL Suffering then I hope you'll give Scars a try at least. I poured a lot of love into it, and it was very much a project of passion!

Yuel’s life is stagnating. He’s twenty-one years old, in his third and final year of university, but his interest in his subject is waning and he doesn’t have any friends to confide in. His days are dull and uninteresting, and he longs for something to break up the monotony of his unremarkable routine – at least, until his father dies.
Unsure of how to cope with this news, Yuel’s mental health collapses. Not knowing who to turn to during such a tumultuous time, he eventually decides to ask his cool and competent older cousin, Tavi, for help.
Tavi is effortlessly cheerful where Yuel is awkwardly withdrawn; outgoing and confident where Yuel is shy and self-conscious; flippant and irreverent where Yuel is stern and serious.
Tavi takes it upon himself, after seeing the state of his younger cousin, to cheer Yuel up to the best of his abilities. Yuel, however, is unaccustomed to kindness, and his feelings for Tavi soon become startlingly sensuous.
Yuel’s life is hard enough as it is, what with his turbulent childhood, his non-existent social life, and now his father’s sudden death, but this pushes things to a tipping point. What in the world is he going to do now, after falling in love with his own older cousin?
- 90k of text (approx 4-6 hours of reading)
- A kinetic story with no choices or branches
- Detailed character and background artwork
- A custom OST
- A sweet, emotional BL story with some drama
- Yuel being extra adorable
Please note: The characters in this story originally appear in my other visual novel, All Ashes and Illusions, but no knowledge of Ashes is required to understand this story: it takes place in a separate universe and is stand-alone.
This story also depicts a consensual romantic relationship between a pair of first cousins. You might want to steer clear of this story if this subject matter would perturb you.
