The Silt Verses

Latest Episodes:

Our Wars Have Ended is out now Apr 17, 2026

Show notes

Twenty years ago, the Kindly Ancestors rose from their graves to reconquer the lands of Old Cyshane. Today, an endless multitude of ancient kings and queens squabble and bicker for cultural supremacy. Labouring corpse-technology has swallowed up agriculture and industry. Dead-divers descend into the netherworld, searching for answers. Even as progress rolls relentlessly onwards, all of us remain helplessly bound to the past. What will it take to stop looking back?

An epic, rotten-hearted weird-fantasy series from the creators of The Silt Verses and I Am In Eskew.
