"How deep into the mirror do your darkest fears lie? Are they there upon your face, or just behind the eyes? Do they rest in boxes long forgotten, covered in dust and elm wood rotten? Some day, the running will end and you will see that the mirror is nothing but glass. Perhaps by then, you will know yourself. Perhaps by then, I will know myself. I hope. I hope. I hope. One day I will tell thi...

Part 1 of a Grand Season Finale. Once upon a time, there was a woman called Ilse, and she - much to her despair - had fallen terribly in love with a man. Once upon a time, there will be a bard called Lorenzo, and he - much to his delight - is falling terribly in love with a woman. But those are just are just fairytales from long ago and far away, Tomorrow and Yesterday. For now, it is the age of a...

Brace yourself. Glass has won, he's taken a Mortimer's magic, left her sundered in the astral realm and fled to The Undercroft. It's up to Sibly, Gwerxos, Brian, Eka and Clemency to realign Mabel with her body. As for the arcane heart in her chest that Glass so desires? That's up to the Tinker of Tanamai herself. And it won't be easy to defend. Memories repressed and horrors profound await her. It...

A soul for a soul The tempest revolves In black bile shadow The hunger evolves Peer through the putrid glass Where desolation rolls Old sands sing older songs: Salas Uthero Salas Uthero.

In the walls, many things hide away. But the light shines and illuminates all dark corners, even one's that should have stayed hidden away. The Mortimers are pulling together strands of a terrible truth. One that will change everything. Featuring Kit Oliver as Possibly Mortimer, Elias Weaver as Mabel Mortimer, Billy Nicholls as Gwerxos and Ted Collins as Brian. Scoring and sound design provide...

Nothing lies deeper than the truth. Men of Gahara tell themselves it is not a fate worse than death. To be kept in the dark. To know nothing of how the world turns. They are wrong. The Mortimers have been blind for too long. Now their eyes are opening to the doors that shift in shadow and the songs that sing in silence. Some people must fall before they rise. Be careful where you tread. The steps...

Memories are a hazy thing. Fingerprints on glass. Breath in a hurricane. But it's happening again - that much is terribly certain - and history rhymes in couplets. If you cannot remember her, the one you have lost, let her shadow fall in your footsteps. She walks with you now. No matter the waning moment. Featuring Kit Oliver as Possibly Mortimer, Elias Weaver as Mabel Mortimer, Billy Nicholls...

Following terrible news Sibly, Mabel and Gwerxos rush to gather intel on someone close to them. As they sum together the knowledge they have gathered so far, a concern sets in: Are they really the heroes this story needs? The shenanigans will speak for themselves as man and machine try blundering their way into an agency of high esteem. Featuring Kit Oliver as Possibly Mortimer, Elias Weaver as Ma...

Chaos on the dancefloor. Mabel stages a threadbare revolution, Sibly improvises too close to the sun and Gwerxos tries to keep at least one of his bosses pacified at all times. The Udan Intermediary Gala reaches it's hilarious and fiery conclusion as all three Mortimers cross paths for the first time since The Prologue. But the story does not end there. Shadows orbit the city and Fin isn't...

Pompous psychos & salacious circumstance. The Mortimers navigate a decadent ball far out of their depth whilst hiding their true nature. Sibly masquerades as a run-of-the-mill bard, Gwerxos as an adequately functional automaton and Mabel... Mabel lies in wait for something a little more explosive. Will the cousins find each other before everything implodes drastically, or is today just Tomorro...

Tensions boil, and some pots implode too quickly. Even apart, the Mortimers unite. A gala is on the horizon, how will fates collide? Gwerxos tries to have his cake and eat it too, Sibly chases down crucial leads in the university and Mabel rethinks her life choices. New discoveries and old faces bring the Mortimers one step closer to reuniting. Tales of Tanamai has RETURNED with Kit Oliver as Poss...
