Project Overview

A Kingdom: Reborn in Shadow

The vibrant heart of Zion Prima was celebrating, but the festivities quickly turned to a nightmare of screaming and devastation. The brutal Umbras Knight exploded from the shadows, leaving unimaginable carnage in his wake. King Motris lay dead, the castle a ruin, and young Prince Oliver’s world was shattered, his closest friend a casualty of the bloody assault.

Orphaned and reeling, ten-year-old Oliver is thrust onto a broken throne. But he refuses to lead alone. His chosen co-ruler is Sage, a shrewd, street-hardened boy who knows the kingdom’s true struggles. Together, with Sage’s younger brother Aquarius, they form an unlikely trio, vowing to rebuild Zion Prima from its ashes.

Their unconventional rule faces immediate, furious backlash from a prejudiced populace. Yet, with a defiant courage that belies their youth, Oliver and Sage promise a new era: a kingdom where no one starves, where every citizen is heard, and where their leaders will fight for them.

But the Umbras Knight's chilling threat looms large, a harbinger of deeper darkness. To protect their fragile new world, Oliver and Sage must embark on a perilous quest, seeking a legendary warrior whose ancient power might be their only hope.

In a kingdom fractured by terror and prejudice, can two child kings, bound by shared trauma and an unwavering promise, forge a future brighter than the darkness that consumes them? Or will Zion Prima's fragile light be snuffed out forever?

Our project features a compelling narrative with rich character arcs, escalating tension, and impactful emotional beats. The happiest times can become the darkest moments in a blink of an eye.

Hey! I am almost 27. I use any pronouns, but mainly He/They. I have been married to my wonderful husband for just over 3 years now. I am looking for someone that would like to co-write/ bounce ideas with. You will be credited upon release, as long as you would like.

I would like to preface this request with a statement that I believe is very important.

This project is restricted to LGBTQIA+ people, people of color, and english-fluent speakers. 

Unfortunately, unless there is a translator, I can only understand english and feel it could lead to hurdles, though I am willing to be proven wrong. This project will be for queer people, poc, and the outcasts. Representation does matter. My skin glows in the dark, but I refuse to work with anyone who feels differently about people of color. No, these criteria are not up for discussion.

I am currently working on a project that I think will be an Indie Game of the Year contender once it is finished. However, I realized with the struggles of life itself, and other things that are interpersonal, it would be unreasonable to attempt to learn everything, then make everything, then polish and perfect.

Essentially, I am writing a dark fantasy story. Drawing inspiration from sources like Final Fantasy, Stephen King, Modern Metal, socio-political and economic factors. I do have the introduction written already, and am consistently writing more. Much love. Happy pride. Remember to tell someone you love them! <3


I would also like to add that I intend to write something that is not family-friendly. There is dismemberment. There is traumatic content. There are things that will be uneasy.

THIS is the point. The point of my writing and media is to push boundaries, make people uncomfortable, and try my best to make it all enjoyable.
