Heralds of the Avirentes - Ch. 1 Wings of Change

About this game

Heralds of the Avirentes is a unique visual novel experience, which brings you into the “Crystal punk” fantasy setting, where the world of Nanraas exists in the parallel universe, unseen to mere humans. It is inhabited by the race of sentient dragon-like beings – the om’veri. They have their own culture, language and long history filled with exciting yet dramatic events that led to long-lasting, violent, and exhausting world-wide military clash known as the “Reunification Wars”. After the decades of darkness and slaughter, the long-awaited fragile peace has finally descended upon the lands of Nanraas. The nature and the om’veri race have been slowly recovering after the age of ruin and devastation brought by the reckless warlords and blind ambition, however, another great mysterious disaster is yet to be unfold… Young cheerful and ever-curious om’verai Azaries is preparing for her pilgrimage to the new mysterious adult life. Together with her loyal friends, they are going to visit the scientific and cultural capital of the om’veri to make their dreams come true. Everything was going according to the plan, until the vortex of mysterious events has forged another destiny for Azaries and her companions – now the fate of the entire worlds depends on them!



Azaries Amnera – cute and kind main character! Or, perhaps, she is not what she seems… Each and every decision made throughout the game impacts Azaries both physically and mentally, as well as her friends and the characters she meets during her travels. Heralds of the Avirentes is a choice-based novel, thus it’s up to player to decide the fate of the world. Moreover, unique player’s style can unlock new benefits and handicaps by sticking to whether “dark” or “light” side of character’s moral doctrine. Nevertheless, being too kind or applying excessive force might not always be the best option.

Try all the available roles! Main story is a breathtaking refined adventure experience filled with carefully crafted dialogs and unique gameplay features. Dive into the grim atmosphere of upcoming disaster that can wipe out the entire life on the planet! However, the majority of ignorant fools believes it only being a fairy tale that scares young hatchlings, Avirentes is closer and closer with each step our heroine makes! Mysterious stranger Akhellis inspires Azaries to investigate the deep changes of the surrounding world in order to find answers. Moreover, she keeps countless secrets, including the mystery of Azaries’ violet eyes. Why can she control the ancient powerful mechanisms? Will she be able to stop the future catastrophe? Why does every single animal become aggressive and extremely dangerous? Only you, as a player, can find answers!



Game features unique setting of the om’veri world! Explore Nanraas and uncover the hidden mysteries of this ancient race! Roam the trails of the wilderness, fly in the skies, enter ancient temples and forgotten shrines! Fight for your own future!

Experience the breathtaking highly detailed and totally unique art style of the in-game content! Fabulous backgrounds and high-quality top-notch sprites will make you spend hours in Nanraas exploring breathtaking views and realistic character models!



Solid and well-adjusted turn-based jRPG-like combat system brings the exquisite new dimension and strategic flavor to the canvas of visual novel.

Explore the vast arsenal of your characters’ skills and abilities, as well as their unique combat styles and arts of battle. Knowledge is the key to victory! Also, greed is not always a bad thing – local monetary system features several major currencies, and it may help Azaries get prepared for future encounters. You can buy items and upgrades for the main character, as well as purchase presents for her friends! Azaries can spend money just to entertain herself or invite her buds to a cafe for chitchat!

Charming Gherstie Mevela, reliable Alveces, mysterious Akhellis… Once their affection is high enough, you’ll get the most powerful allies who will always be by you side in the most dangerous battles to come! Good VN is never limited by the main story – dozens of exciting substories are scattered all over Nanraas and are waiting for Azaries and her lot to explore them! Even the most average of the requests can turn out to be a grand adventure for a couple of hours with exciting encounters, intrigues, mysteries, and investigations!

Social component, which includes reputation and characters’ affection, makes the interaction with the other characters even more vivid and exciting! Azaries can gain the reputation by completing local requests and substories. The level of affection depends on many things, as well as on Azaries’ karma – some NPCs prefer kind softies to deal with while the others will only open their dark secrets to the coldblooded murderers. Each city, town, and village houses tons of fun and breathtaking events! Find them all!

  Multiple tweaks, choices tracker, and a brand-new city map/world map UI

  Greetings, brave explorers of Nanraas! To commemorate the Ukrainian Games Festival and Anthro Festival, we are releasing a new HotA update featuring brand-new city map/world map UI, as well as tons of other tweaks! We’ve been focusing our efforts mostly on QoL improvements, polishing existing content, and making the gameplay even smoother than before.What’s new:1) Brand-new High Circles map/Global world map UI!Developers’ commentaries: we are aware that some players like vibes of the old map UI since it also has its charm and advantages. Nevertheless, this element of the game feels and looks outdated, since it was designed when the core gameplay loop included only a couple of locations and quests featured in the very first versions of the game. However, the game world is growing, multiple characters, quests and substories were added, so did many new locations. Therefore, we decided to design a new, more comprehensible and easier-to-use UI to unify the game logic and make the exploration of the world more consistent. The new UI looks, feels and plays like a real breath of fresh air aimed at helping new and returning players to better understand the world of the game.Also, be advised that neither locations nor the logic of menu have been changed, replaced or altered, just the way you interact with them. We hope you’ll like the new UI!Worry not: UI update is compactible with older saves, so you should transition to the new UI seamlessly.2) Events/choices tracker UI. Since the game is expanding and the system of karma/choices is getting increasingly complicated to follow, especially for returning players and those trying multiple routes simultaneously, we’ve added the Events/choices tracker UI. It can be access via “Choices Record” section located in the “Character” submenu. This tab lets you keep track of the most impactful and meaningful choices made by Azaries during her travels, as well as serves as a reminder of the results of some in-game events and battles.

  Charming Sillitreya and her homeland of Chime-Kalantre! New update spotlight!

  Greetings, brave explorers of Nanraas! In the hottest season of the year, we’re releasing next content update solemnly focused on probably the hottest character of the game – Sillitreya! Now you can get to know her better, as well as find out more about her homeland, personality and past!Patch notes:1) Speak with Sillitreya to start her personal substory and find out more about this charming yet enigmatic character! The red-scaled om’verai seems friendly and open to Azaries, but it doesn’t mean you can be careless, especially when asking about her family and past. If you’re polite and tactful enough, you can find a key to her heart to find out more about her homeland of Chime-Kalantre, family and background! Strengthen the bond with the young promising journalist to become her loyal friend!2) Total revamp of the Boutymus city map! In this update we’re aiming to integrate a new, more jRPG-like concept of roaming the city to improve the traveling experience! This newly developed information menu should make the overall city design more consistent and easy-to-navigate.Important notice: old saves made at the Boutymus city map should work without an issue. In order to commence a transition from old map interface to the new one, try entering and then leaving the hotel. For new save files the transition will be automatic and seamless.3) All typos and missing translation segments from the previous update have been fixed.We are planning to revamp all the existing maps in the game, including the local layout of High Circles and Global Map. We’ve been striving to make the old design more authentic and functional but concluded that it stands out in a particularly obscure way, therefore a new design should eliminate the discrepancies and add more consistency and functionality. We hope you’ll like the new design! If you have any suggestions or comments regarding this new feature, please feel free to join our Discord!The next update will be mostly focused on refining the existing ...

However, I had no idea my diploma project with a couple of demo scenes featuring some of my original characters would transform into something absolutely magnificent in future. I was just an artist making a couple of artworks when I had some free time, and I thought I’ve climbed my personal Everest. I’ve not been thinking that globally until I started asking myself some complex questions like “What would I do ...
