Hello VN developers! My name is Nave and I’m very excited to be participating in the Toxic Yuri VN Jam and am currently looking for 1 artist to help bring the project to life. The visual novel I have planned is called Forever Us, a gothic fantasy romance centered around themes of death, remembrance, obsession, cosmic horror, and eternity. The story follows two women whose relationship gradually spirals into something intimate, tragic, and deeply unnatural within the walls of an ancient seaside sanctum devoted to the goddess of death. Aesthetically, the project leans heavily into gothic architecture, candlelit interiors, oceanic cliffside scenery, ritual imagery, and cozy mourning spaces that slowly become more unsettling as the story progresses. The overall tone is melancholic, romantic, atmospheric, and psychologically haunting.
Here is the official synopsis:
Forever Us is a gothic fantasy visual novel set within the world of Prismara, following the emotionally distant Kiran Rinaldi after the sudden death of her parents leaves her the sole caretaker of an ancient seaside sanctum devoted to the goddess of death, Yukhel. Struggling to adapt to her new life within the isolated church overlooking the ocean cliffs of Tabora, Kiran finds unexpected comfort in the arrival of Aizia Callow, an eccentric woman from her past whose fascination with death, ritual, and tactile necromancy quickly begins to consume both the sanctum and Kiran herself. As the two grow closer through increasingly intimate and dangerous practices, Kiran becomes entangled in a philosophy that refuses to accept separation, mortality, or the natural cycle of the Final Circuit Field. Beneath the warmth of candlelit halls and tender devotion lies something deeply unnatural, and Kiran must ultimately decide whether love is meant to be cherished… or preserved forever.
