The Quiet After

About the Game

You play Ava, a would-be adventurer whose guild registration becomes the first step into something far more dangerous. The threat exists on the road ahead and deep beneath her own skin.

Every choice is emotionally charged. Some open new paths. Others open wounds. All of them shape who Ava becomes and what she learns to carry forward.
