Welcome to the world of Alona--a fantasy earthen world in a post-war era that is amidst a cultural revolution. This website is dedicated to archiving the lore, characters, and artwork of this world-building project, as well as development notes and other related content. The world of Alona is a work in progress, and this website will be updated as the project evolves. This story is the framework for a work-in-progress browser-based HARPG (Horse Art Role-Playing Game) that is currently in development. The web-based game can be found on the Sharmeely website.

The world of Alona is inspired by action/mystery/romance “isekai” worlds. In Alona, when the country of Tempel attempted to adopt communism, Emperor Hana’s father launched a military campaign to prevent its spread to other nations and save countless lives. After his father’s death in battle, Hana ascended to the throne and continued his father's mission. Following five long and grueling years of conflict, Tempel finally surrendered to the Empire of Uzhua. The story revolves around the young emporer's reign as he moves the country from a dark past into a bright and blossoming future--and the grief, love, and purpose he finds along the way.
