Tales of Alyiria | Heiress

Welcome to the dark and beautiful world of Alyiria.

The following words were written in collaboration with the members of the band Alyiria—the brave explorers who dared dream up the deep and sprawling history of a land with a sentience all its own. From the music and the artwork to the lore contained within these pages, we invite you immerse yourself in this brutal and breathtaking world. If you’re ready to begin your journey, you need only open the pages of this cursed book. . . . 

If you dare.

What people are saying:

“The Heiress is a compilation of short stories. Based on an album by Alyiria, these stories will drown you in a world where chaos reigns. Do you dare to get dragged into the darkest moments, the deepest despairs, always looking for a light that never shines? These stories will hook you and not let you go! You’ll get lost in the depths of the characters’ plights and find out you don’t know whom to cheer on. Don’t pass this book up; immerse yourself and get lost… if you dare.” -T.L. Humphrey (author of the Katie’s Journey Series)
