Song of Larithea

From the Devs

Larithea is a cute anime RPG about friendship, trust, revenge, and finding your way back from the darkness. A team of young mages is sent out into the world — each of them with their own road ahead. Others have walked it before. Few found their way back.

Meet the team

• Maya — silver-haired heiress to a healing dynasty and the largest private hospital in Ormron, Maya has never known want or hardship. Her future was settled the day she was born — and a schoolgirl crush on the school's most sought-after Magister was never going to change that, unless it did.
  
• Tara — a girl with no past and no certain future, Tara has fought for everything she owns. All she wants is a place of her own in the world — even if earning it means joining a pack of privileged brats on a fool's errand.
  
• Nell — quick to laugh and quicker to burn, Nell collects friends in minutes and grudges quicker still — it only takes someone cruel picking on someone smaller. Ask him about home and the smile stays; the answers stop.
  
• Grey — born in a free city of the north, the idle son of a prosperous baker who paid his tuition in full, coin counted out on the table. So where does his knowledge of the old magic come from?
  
• Dart — the most talented student in the school and the coldest, Dart earned a Magister's badge before most of his year earned a passing mark, then took every field assignment that led away from Ormron. About his life before the school he has never said a word.

The world

One person makes this

Larithea is a solo passion project, made in Sydney, released a chapter at a time. The heroes and their magic schools came from Серце гріє (The Heart Warms), a fantasy novel I wrote, published in 2008. The book told one version of that world. This is the one you play.
