Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Tetrine Reish is a librarian -all right, librarian’s assistant- who lives in the city-state of Asher. In spite of her leading a seemingly normal life, things start to take an ominous turn when she begins to dream of strange hallways and receives the visit of a mysterious woman asking for a book. A book that doesn’t belong to Tetrine’s library, and is written in Nell marks, the language of demons. Tetrine is one of the few people who can actually read them, but her secret is threatened when two suspicious individuals figure it out. A kidnapping and an attempted murder (or two) ensue, and Tetrine’s life will never quite be the same again.Asher is a free dark fantasy visual novel first released by Sun Labyrinth in 2014, and newly reissued with brand new art and double the word count on itch.io in 2018. It features 9 different endings and an (almost) entirely black-and-white retro aesthetic, and takes place in a world reminiscent of the 1920s, only populated by mythical creatures. The player can influence Tetrine’s personality to a degree but the main decisions have life or death consequences for her.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Asher is the first opus in a trilogy of visual novels following the same group of characters, which include Tell a Demon (2017), available on Steam as well as on itch.io, and The Empress of Aeser, which is still in development as of late 2018.Tell a Demon tells three intertwining stories set in the city-state of Asher. Your choices affect the outcome, with several endings for each character. Take on the role of a human girl in a supernatural city, an immortal demoness with a mission (and possibly a vendetta), and an undead fellow who wouldn't mind having his life back, thank you very much. | |

Earn Your Bad Ending | |
Asher Series (Visual Novel) / int_132e865c | comment |
Earn Your Bad Ending: The game isn’t exactly subtle about Demons’ Bargains not being a very wise choice to make for mortals, and if the player still chooses to have Tell make a bargain with either Julius or Sakraia, it more often than not leads to a variety of bad endings. | |

Heroic BSoD: Julius shows this after Senna’s death, which he just can’t process. The day after her death, he takes a train to Asher without even a change of clothes, leaving his childhood friend, distant family and farm behind without even as much as a goodbye. He then represses his memories of her until he meets Tell as a shadow demon under Markaius’ careful planning. | |

Love Epiphany | |
Asher Series (Visual Novel) / int_38b33e8d | comment |
Love Epiphany: To which point it’s an epiphany is left a bit ambiguous, but if the player chose this option earlier, Tell’s memories of Julius kissing her on the cheek in the catacombs lead to her having difficulties to leave him at the end of the game, thus inviting her into her house, where she and him share a (real) kiss. An alternate playthrough can lead to Tell referring to this behaviour as something a "silly, lovestruck girl" would do. | |

The Stinger: When the player unlocks all the canon endings for each character, it becomes possible to read an epilogue, from Tell’s perspective. It’s an additional scene featuring a character whose name has been dropped since Asher, Antonine Harus, who is hinted to be a major player among court demons. The sequel to Tell a Demon, The Empress of Aeser, is also directly announced in this epilogue. | |

Gory Discretion Shot | |
Asher Series (Visual Novel) / int_49f20c6a | comment |
Gory Discretion Shot: In what is arguably the worst ending, "Haunted", the walls of Tetrine’s Auros house are shown splattered with blood as a result of her killing her tenants after the Hunger takes control. Interestingly enough, there originally was an additional CG showing her curling up in a corner with blood all over her, but it got deleted in the remake. Another example of the remake toning down a bit the graphic violence of the original is Julius’ death, which is now off-screen, with only a blood-splattered background instead of this terrifying image of Kialee piercing his neck with her awfully long fingers/nails. | |

Maybe Ever After | |
Asher Series (Visual Novel) / int_b97c2cfb | comment |
Maybe Ever After: Tetrine and Markaius’ relationship is at the core of the story of Asher, but what it truly consists of is voluntarily written as ambiguous. What we do know for sure is that they were in a happy romantic relationship about two years before the events of Asher started, but in the present, the situation is much more complicated. The canon ending, "Markaius", shows Tetrine giving him a chance and the two sharing an embrace/kiss, but the writing always makes a point in showing that she has yet to truly forgive him for stealing her memories and transforming her into a demon. On the other hand, Markaius admits he has very often told her partial truths, but doesn’t really show any signs of wanting to improve on that front. The ambiguity of their relationship continues on in Tell a Demon, where Tetrine has the option to turn against him and romance Kalevel instead. It should also be noted that Markaius can be downright awful to Tetrine in some of the endings, such as "Betrayal", where he kills her in cold blood. Not exactly ideal for a loving, healthy, long-term relationship. | |

The Chessmaster | |
Asher Series (Visual Novel) / int_d62dd556 | comment |
The Chessmaster: Markaius, who is directly responsible for the Immortal Empress’s death, and also Kalevel’s and Tetrine’s deaths and subsequent demonification. He’s also the one who put in motion the events leading to Julius and Tell’s meeting, knowing full well that getting near her would awaken Julius’ dormant memories and allow him to break free from the Mind-Chain. Sakraia and Kialee both refer to this habit of his as "playing games", indicating he’s been at it for centuries, if not millennia. He directly admits to wanting to shape the future, but so far we do no not know what he actually hopes to achieve. | |

Afterlife Antechamber | |
Asher Series (Visual Novel) / int_d72929ed | comment |
Afterlife Antechamber: The Nell. Technically, it’s a river containing the names of the demons who bargained to obtain its power. But it is also the first step to entering the afterlife, symbolised by a floating city that people still bound to the real world cannot touch or approach. | |

Art Evolution | |
Asher Series (Visual Novel) / int_e43c66bd | comment |
Art Evolution: The evolution in art style is incredible when one compares the original Asher to its remake, which was done with the same beautiful Renaissance-inspired realistic style as Tell a Demon. And only four years separate the two! | |

Press X to Not Die: The earlier version of Asher had this. May be back if the developer codes the remake in Unity or Ren’Py later on. | |

Society of Immortals | |
Asher Series (Visual Novel) / int_e6d4b4e6 | comment |
Society of Immortals: It was hinted at in Asher, but Tell a Demon makes it way more obvious by introducing more court demons and giving them backstories through flashbacks and recollections of life under the Immortal Empress’ reign. | |

Who Wants to Live Forever? | |
Asher Series (Visual Novel) / int_ea39d156 | comment |
Who Wants to Live Forever?: While Kalevel doesn’t complain too much about her status as an immortal, she does say to Tetrine that it’s an unnatural state of being : "There is something wrong about what we are, dove. I wouldn’t expect roses if I were you". Markaius also tells Kalevel something around the lines of "I know you had envisioned a way happier life for yourself". Considering the misery the Immortal Empress brought to her life, it’s understandable she would have preferred to live as a normal human. | |

Asher Series (Visual Novel) / int_f019a913 | comment |
Playing God: Markaius was literally known and referred to as the god Markos in Mevayrea, Kalevel’s and Kialee’s homeland. He can actually give a new life through his elixirs, which Tetrine discovers he deliberately manipulates with Nell marks so he can create demons with specific attributes. | |

I Will Find You: Even hundred of years of separation couldn’t persuade Kalevel to drop her efforts to rescue her sister, Kialee, from the terrible situation Mara Seita put her in. How and whether this will pan out is still a mystery. | |

Asher Series (Visual Novel) / int_f9439c84 | comment |
Haunted House: In one of the endings, Tetrine mentions having grown up in a house haunted by the ghost of her grandmother, later on joined by her mother’s. Ghosts are a pretty common occurrence is Aeser, though. There is a short story expanding on this story on the developer’s site: The Ghosts of Reish House. | |
