S. C. Frey

Hello everyone!

After finally discovering a tagline, I thought I'd go ahead and make an intro post!

Welcome to Freys Fiction, the home to the world of Tirras Savehys. A fantasy world bursting at the seams! This is something of an ambitious worldbuilding project that will, as time moves forward, encompass many different projects and media forms all taking place in the same world. Books, Interactive Fiction, and more.

S.C. Frey is a strange character and figure unknown to most in Tirras outside of their creations. Their stories are popular, but any information about the author's identity or whereabouts remain unknown.

Current Projects in the Works™️ are:

Main Series of Fantasy Novels - this series will follow one of the main duos of Tirras Savehys

Interactive World Map and Wiki - a place for interested parties to explore the world and read up on posted lore bits

Lore Items - posted here and to Instagram, pieces of a larger puzzle of Tirras (tagged collection here)

Newsletter - includes news stories happening currently in Tirras, as well as notes and discoveries of SC Frey themselves

Threads (I'm most active here)

It's not just a boulder.... it's a rock!

One of the oldest allies to the mortal races, packdrags deserve the spotlight this week! The coming newsletter will tell of a festival in their name, as well as an update on the tragedy of Krshk.

Lore Items are BACK with stories to boot!

O sacred Sands. That which washes and weathers even the most jagged of stone. Smooths its face till only slate remains. Through haze that stings your eyes, the flats of the desert stretch on endless. It remains the same as before.

As you march forth, determined, you take a step only to find it wanting, your heel snagged on a crack. You stumble, trying to regain your footing and manage with little trouble. Both feet are planted on firm ground and yet the stammer in your journey dislodges something in your chest.

Adrenaline rushes your already frayed nerves. Your skin itches and your fingers flinch. This is an ill portent. There is naught but ruin further in. You will fail-

No. The fear that wishes to claw deep inside your marrow hasn’t split your bone yet.

The harmony you seek is out there. You won’t be swayed from its path. Not again.

You find yourself alone again.

Such is the nature of your work. You are the messenger. The deliverer of hope and heart. The courier of promises fulfilled and scales balanced. There is belief to be shared and serenity to be given and you are that in-between.

However, here in the Burnt Lands, where your feet sink deep into scorching sand and your brow drips heavy beads of sweat, you find yourself shaken. Unnerved as beyond you looms an endless sea of unforgiving umber.

There is a path you are meant to follow but you cannot see it clear. This stretch of desert that rages, that demands blood, asks you to recall.

You adjust your pack and tighten your scarf, you’d rather not draw those memories forth but harmony is found at the centre.

And you will find yours.

The Thread begins...

To celebrate 100 followers on Threads, an interactive fiction story set in the world of Tirras Savehys has begun both here and there!

You're more than welcome to hop in and vote, or simply sit back and watch the chaos unfold! Which Thread will you follow?

Resulting storylines will be posted here as they come!

The lore about Versihillin Staff is probably my favorite! I LOVE mage stuff, and negation magic is always a cool concept to explore! Are you able to share more about how the Verdishil mages preform their feared magic?

Ahh, thank you so much!! It's quite fun building a world!

The Verdihsil Warriors are a unique one. All of those who successfully pact with Verdihsil are tattooed - typically on the arms. It's those tattoos, along with a 'conduit' of sorts, that allow his Anti-Magic to be utilized. For his swordsman, that conduit is their sword. For his mages, it's their staff. The overall design of the tattoos are unique, but the flow is usually similar - the "contracting" symbol somewhere and the rest of the design flowing from there. One example:

The mages have it a bit harder than their swordsman counterparts, however, as spellcasting is a "force of will", as scholars put it. And, because Verdy's magic is a 'negative' energy, trying to force-will such spells takes a lot of practice!

The Verdihsil Warriors are often employed as mage hunters for these abilities, keeping other spellcasters in check.

Some Exciting Things™️ are on their way! Including but not limited to:

A Newsletter! - ever wondered what's going on around in the world of Tirras Savehys? Look no further! Our resident journalist Birinder Bane - a wordsmith and seasoned traveller of Tirras - has decided to take up the mantel and put together a newsletter of the most exciting stories happening from the desert city of Zyztsk to the lush and vibrant Bloombud Isle. Sign ups will hopefully be out by early/mid June!

A Well Seasoned Appetizer - even the richest of 5 course meals need a smaller piece to start. Currently in the works alongside the Main Series is a smaller, lower stakes lover's tale. So if you're a fan of orange cats, magical professors, Fame Devils, and shenanigans, keep your eyes and ears peeled...
