LYRA: The World is Creation and Transformation

Sure, the world is a tumultuous place, but that's just what it needs to be. Nothing more, and above all, nothing less. By accep- ting it as it is, we can perceive its beauty, its sublime nature. The world has always been ephemeral and changeable, an infinite cycle of creation and re-creation. In this sense, it has become even more assertive. It's time to celebrate this, to experience it day by day, not to reject it. It's up to humanity to adapt, to let itself be transformed, to pay homage. And what better way to do so than through art in all its forms?

DIVE INTO THE WORLD OF ALTERED

Centuries ago, our reality collided with the world of stories and dreams in a cataclysm known as the Confluence, an event that profoundly reshaped the Earth as we know it. Beings from this world suddenly roamed amongst us, and changed the way we lived. Since then, we’ve formed alliances with them, and together we patiently rebuilt a new civilization.

With peace and prosperity now secured, it’s finally time for us to rediscover the altered world around us. Six leading Factions have chosen their heroes to lead courageous expeditions beyond the gates, where the Tumult, a remnant of the Confluence of old, still mutates everything in its wake.

Aspiring to address the pitfalls that the trading card game market has faced over the last 30 years, we have crafted this ambitious project to rekindle the magic within the genre. What defines us? A core of optimism, kindness, sharing, and a profound longing for modernity. Crafted by a team of thirty enthusiasts based in Paris and led by the visionary Régis Bonnessée (known for Dixit, Mysterium, Diceforge, and Seasons), we are thrilled to finally unveil the culmination of the positive energy that has fueled our efforts for the past three years. Welcome to the adventure!
