An interactive immersive opera-ritual by the creators of We Sing/I Sang and The Perfect Opera.
They exist in the forgotten spaces.
They are beautiful.
They are terrible.
They never lie.
They hoard the truth.
We can bind them.
They are the Uncanny Things.
You have been requested and invited to come bargain with Uncanny Things.
This is a world much like ours, with one exception.
Those creatures in old stories and legends: the fey in the shadow of ancient trees, the hellkin lingering in bloody cellars, the bastions chanting at the edge of hearing: they are real.
That flicker of movement in the corner of your eye, the faint laugh heard in an empty house - those were Uncanny Things. So too the unexpected gift, or inexplicable sickness. Not always, but often.
Doors to their labyrinths - strange pocket-worlds formed around the Things - bloom and vanish in stone henges, fog-filled streets, and oil-slicked puddles. Sometimes, they extrude into this world, causing phenomena known as the Wyrd.
However, if a community comes together and performs a ritual of bargaining, the Things’ power can be bound, controlled, used, or abused.
You have been asked to attend such a ritual in these difficult times. You will decide who to help and how as you master rituals, make offerings, craft powerful invocations, and above all, negotiate with the strange and powerful Uncanny Thing.
As the wyrd rises, what will you do?
