Emerald Blood: Songs of the Ancients

Emerald Blood: Songs of the Ancients
The old world was never gone. It was waiting beneath the soil.
Emerald Blood: Songs of the Ancients is a cinematic third-person RPG inspired by Irish mythology, history, archaeology, folklore and language.
You play as Ailbhe O’Sullivan, a modern archaeologist whose work near the Hill of Tara draws her into an older Ireland, where myth and memory are no longer things confined to stories.
As Ailbhe begins to uncover why she has been called into the past, she must learn to read a world shaped by ancient places, forgotten stories and forces that do not always reveal what they want.
See Beyond the Visible with Léargas
Ailbhe possesses Léargas, an insight into what lies hidden beneath the surface of the world.
Use Léargas to reveal:
Hidden paths through ancient landscapes

Echoes and memories bound to place

Symbols, warnings and traces of old magic

Presences that may not be ally or enemy

Clues connecting myth, history and memory

Léargas is more than an objective marker. It is part of how you investigate the world, uncover its secrets and understand the stories buried within it.
Explore an Ireland Shaped by Myth
Journey through a world inspired by early medieval Ireland, where real landscapes, history and mythology exist side by side.
From Tara and the lands beyond it to rivers, ancient routes and sacred places, the world of Emerald Blood draws on Ireland’s landscape and cultural memory while creating its own mythic spaces and stories.
Choices and Consequences
Not every story has only one path.
Build trust, question what you are told, decide who to believe and make choices that influence how people and stories respond to Ailbhe.
Your decisions can affect relationships, quests and how parts of Ailbhe’s journey unfold.
Archaeology Meets the Otherworld
Ailbhe approaches the past as an archaeologist.
Examine places, artefacts and traces of earlier lives through her knowledge of history, language and folklore, then confront a world in which the stories she studied may be far more real than she ever believed.
Gaeilge and English
Irish language is woven naturally through dialogue, names, songs, places and lore.
Emerald Blood is being designed with English and Irish interface and subtitles, while spoken dialogue blends both languages as part of the identity of its world.
