Nyandor, a land of epic tales, was once home to cats of every stripe, their lives interwoven with the fabric of the Mewniverse.
From their ranks emerged the Felix Magistrae, a rare breed of Mewgician who mastered space and time.
Over an epoch, these magical cats would become masters of space and time.
A select few even experimented with forbidden Voyd magic in an effort to reroute our timeline away from an impending apocalypse.
Which, paradoxically, created it.
Now, the Mewniverse teeters on the brink, its tale left unfinished. To save it, you must step through the Voyd gates and help us forge a new destiny. The fate of all rests in your paws.
Tales aren’t just stories well-told, they're how we communicate, how we transact, how we transmit wisdom, how we express love and how we dream. Good tales can alter lifepaths. Great ones can make empires rise or fall. Exceptional tales move the ears of Leoran, the Endless One.

The Gate of Nyandor
Book One: The Furbidden Voyd
You are Seliy'e of Tol, born to the oldest line of feline magicians in all of Nyandor. As the daughter of Archmage Orachys, your path seemed clear: to graduate your Assessment as a fully-fledged Elemental psychomagician, and one day claim the title of Archmage.But the threads of fate weave in unexpected ways, and your journey would take a turn far beyond anything foretold. Mastery of your powers would not come as expected—you would be drawn into a tale that stretched beyond the bounds of spacetime, and would reshape the very fabric of the Mewniverse.
“Did you listen to what I said? Don’t make fire. Ever. It leaves marks, and if you screw up, you could burn down the house.”
-Seliy’e
An Infinite Game...
On the other side of the Gate of Nyandor lies a community of players in this Networked Narrative Worldbuilding Experience wherein players are presented with a story, and either write a small “beat” sized continuation, or vote on other prospective story beats.
Players earn $STORY tokens by co-creating the canon of our world.
Earn NFTs, in-game Voyd Gems, and $STORY for every vote and story submission.
I chose Arcane Catstory for my apprenticeship, so I got an access carte from my cohort leader. The only reason I was able to get one this early is because of who my father is.

tailTALES
You step through the Furbidden Voyd Gate and into the unknown. Behind you, the world as you knew it unravels. Ahead lies a Voyd where reality can only be rebuilt through the telling of Nyandor’s collective story.
Piece by piece, you must weave the strands of this fractured world together. Every choice, every tale told, carries weight. The tail of the tale is yours to complete—and reality itself depends on it.
The fate of the Mewniverse lies in your paws.
But be warned: the stories you craft in the Voyd ripple outward, shaping your physical world as much as it shapes them.
This communal storybuilding journey is designed for 3-8 cats.
Will you rise to the challenge?
"In the examination of the diary pages, a similar causation emerged, stretched out over an epochal time scale, one that began with cats learning to articulate beyond vocalizations, combat, or urine-marking by scratching messages into trees or stones. Over many generations those scratches became organized enough to comprise a system that could be construed as ‘writing,’ and out of that emerged a representational system, still rooted in cat-scratch. As thoughts became larger and more complex, the marks that represented them shrunk in kind, until finally...the Upheaval."
