The story trailer: one commuter, one missed stop, and the world on the other side.
It is 11:58 PM. Rain on the windows, another deadline tomorrow. You close your eyes for one stop.
A chime wakes you. You tap your transit card on the reader by the doors, and the reader flares violet. Stars pour out of the slot. The floor gives way.
You land in a meadow of giant mushrooms and pudding-shaped hills, face to face with a witch in an enormous hat. Her name is Seraphine. It took her nine tries to summon you. The first eight were a goat.
She hands you the Star Codex, a book of starlight that only an Otherworlder can open. Every hero in Aetheria is bound to a star. With the Codex you can call them to your side, and fight beside them. And somewhere beyond the clouds, a king made of shadow already knows your name.
Thirty chapters, five acts, one question: if you save this world, can you still go home?
Free the corrupted guardians of Aetheria, from the Royal Jelly Court of Puddingwood to the dragon at the gates of the Abyss Castle. Gather Kuroha, Aurelia, Ragna and Lumi. Learn why your hands glow when you touch the Codex.
Cross into the space between worlds, where the sea reflects your own city at night. Torn journal pages tell you who the Hollow King used to be, and what the Codex really costs.
The stars start to break. One by one, your heroes' own stars flicker, and each of them has to face the thing they never told you.
A railway of starlight runs through the Veil. Ride it through a station of lost things, a city that remembers you, and the street where you grew up, all the way to the last train home.
Every Otherworlder before you saved Aetheria the same way, and none of them went home. You are going to find another way, or you are going to find out why there isn't one.
A continent of sugar-frosted peaks, mushroom forests and floating ruins, held together by a sky full of bound stars. Tap a land to visit it.
Every hero in Aetheria is bound to a star. The Codex is the book that reads those stars and calls their heroes across any distance. Only someone born outside Aetheria can open it. That is why the Starfall Circle summons Otherworlders, and why there have only ever been nine of them.
An order of star witches who once ruled from the floating ruins in the northern sky. Seraphine is its last apprentice. Her family has kept a secret about the Codex for a thousand years, and she is very bad at keeping secrets.
A violet corruption creeping out of the Abyss Castle. It turns gentle guardians into monsters and sweet dreams into bad ones. Wherever it spreads, the stars above go dim.
The ruler of the Abyss Castle. He was once the brightest star in the Circle, the eighth Otherworlder, a thousand years ago. He watches you from the start. He knows your name. And he left something for you on his throne.
The space between your world and Aetheria, built out of memories. Time runs differently there. A thousand years on one side can be a single night on the other.
Knights sworn to protect the innocent, led in the field by Aurelia. Their squires are very brave and very short. Their cooks are excellent. Their opinion of Otherworlders is mixed.

Starfall Witch
The witch who summoned you across the Veil.
Aetheria keeps growing after launch. Every month a new hero arrives with their own story chapter, banner and skill set. Here's who's on the way.
Planned roster. Names, art and details may change before release.
You are not one of the heroes. You are the one who calls them. Choose your look, from hair and eye colour to six full outfits, and change it any time in the Dressing Room.
In battle, your Star Codex charges as your heroes fight. When it's full, you fly in on your mount, unleash a Special across the whole screen, and fly back out. Pick the class that matches how you like to play.
Your Special starts simple and gets louder as the story goes on. Each tier adds power and a bigger screen-wide effect.
Strikes and raises the whole team's defence. Draws enemy attacks.
A single devastating hit on one foe.
Arrow storms that hit every enemy, twice.
Meteor showers across the whole battlefield.
Heals everyone at once. Normal attacks patch up the wounded.
Lifts the team's attack, then joins the fight.
Six elements run through the heroes of Aetheria. The seventh belongs only to you.
Oaths, shields and healing prayers. The magic of the Dawn Order and the Moonfox Shrine.
Aurelia, Lumi, Toto, BiscuitShadow steps and silent blades. Not evil, just quiet. Mostly.
Kuroha, RookRaw starlight shaped into spells. Studied in the Starfall Circle, occasionally set on fire.
Seraphine, NibBurning lances and exploding libraries. Fast, loud and hard to take back.
Ragna, CloveFrost arrows and tidal wards from the snowbound north.
ShioriForest bows, thorn armor and the fighting style of the Mochi Temple.
Pip, Momo, Bramble, FernThe Codex's own magic. It binds stars, calls heroes and powers your Specials. Nobody in Aetheria can use it but you.
The OtherworlderSlot up to three disks to add an extra effect every time you use a Special: a meteor, a phoenix revival, a frost nova and more. Star them up as you play.
Small, loyal and surprisingly dangerous. One familiar fights beside your party, two more lend their strength from the back line.
Your mount carries you into every Special. Some are earned, some are found in the hardest raids.
Every chapter, every hero and every mode can be earned without paying. The game plays itself while you're away, so a few minutes a day goes a long way.
Optional purchases include cosmetics, passes and summons. Summons give random heroes, familiars or gear. Every drop rate is listed in the game, and pity guarantees a top-rarity pull within a set number of summons, so you always know the odds before you spend.
