Sigh of the Abyss

Beschreibung

Step into the splendor of a Renaissance port city in
Sigh of the Abyss
, a dark fantasy visual novel with a customizable protagonist, a choice-heavy narrative and optional, inclusive romances.

As the
Envoy
, you are the product of a bloody ritual—mortal in appearance, yet imbued with the monstrous powers of the Abyss.

The men and women that sacrificed their life for yours guide you with their whispers, showing you how squalor and excess coexist side to side, how
most
toil while
a few
feast.



Did the Abyss bestow upon you supernatural
strength
and agility? Do you have the power to
manipulate the shadows
and see what they see? Perhaps your dark gift is
prying open the minds of others
only to break them and have them do your bidding.



The four humors color the tone of your responses and your personality, from the carefree
sanguine
to the thoughtful
phlegmatic
, from the anxious
melancholic
to the fiery
choleric
.

Will you stay friends, turn into bitter rivals, or seek something more with your companions?

Alpheon
seeks refuge in a dissolute life without responsibilities. Without a roof over her head,
Sylas
resorts to crime to survive.
Malec
has been entrusted with a blood-stained legacy. As mages,
Marané
and
Ascanio
are shackled by their power to a life of isolation.



Pick the romantic preferences of the protagonist to determine
who
will flirt with you and reciprocate your affection: see
only
the kind of romantic content
you
want.

Ever-expanding and always craving for more, the city of Carolise spills out of its walls. Lavish trading posts are established while beggars and vagrants watch, and the divide between nobles and peasants grows into a rift. Who will you
save
and who will you
condemn
?
