You are the Aeon, an omniscient entity as old as time. Your duty to preserve the balance of the cosmos has been clear to you from the moment you were born.
When your powers begin to malfunction and the source of an incoming threat is unbeknownst to you, how will you protect the fabric of the universe?
Abandon your omnipresent form for the first time in millennia and craft an identity as a demon to infiltrate the Ethereal Plane. Things might grow complicated as you become acquainted with your emotions and build relationships with others…
- Play as male, female, or nonbinary; straight, gay, bisexual, or asexual.
- Choose the gender of 2 out of 4 romantic prospects.
- Explore the realm where both angels and demons reside as you try to decipher the cause behind the collapse of the timeline.
- Piece together a series of mysteries as a cascade of unsettling events puts everything you’ve known into question.
- Discover that you might not be as invincible as you thought…
Will you still be an impartial enforcer of balance by the end of your journey?

What will be the main focus of this WIP?
Romance. Branches will be elected at the end of Ch3 and the plot develops differently based on your choice. No-romance path is not planned because my outline is already too big.
The story also has an overarching theme of self-discovery. And emotional damage, maybe. Angst is subjective!
Romance Options
Jude, Alistair, and Onyx are bisexual. Helia is gay.
(The Archangel) Jude — Gender Selectable
The charismatic ruler of Celestia. They are carefree, flirty, and hedonistic.
“If you’d like to know more about me we should meet again in a more… personal setting. I’m as good at sleepovers as I am at parties.”
Angels and demons alike would describe them as someone kind and benevolent, but it’s up to you to confirm that.
(The Archangel’s Aide) Alistair — Male (he/him)
The Archangel’s sociable right-hand man. He is too honest, too clumsy, and too trusting for his own good. His face is flushed more often than not.
“You think I like them? No! I mean, maybe— No! Never ask me a question ever again!”
This chatterbox makes friends wherever he goes, so how come he’s so thin-skinned?
(The Archdemon) Onyx — Gender Selectable
The unapproachable ruler of Pandemonium. They are reserved, disciplined, and perceptive. The professional boundaries they set at work often lead others to mistake them for someone cold and uncaring.
We don’t have to do anything you don’t want to. I’m quite fond of long walks with pleasant company.
What emotions hide behind their stoic exterior?
(The Elusive Stranger) Helia — Gender Dependant (Based on MC’s Sex)
A mysterious stranger whose path keeps crossing yours. You don’t know much about them, but their upturned green eyes and straight eyebrows give them a permanently judgmental expression.
“You’re an eyesore—stop crying already. Here.”
The nausea you feel in their vicinity might be your intuition telling you they’re up to no good.
Future Plans
- Chapter 2 will be at least two times the size of Chapter 1 so I estimate a January/February 2025 release.
- I will not create a Tumblr until Ch2 is posted since Ch1 is mainly exposition.
- This is planned as a standalone game.
