The MirroredRealms
The Obsidian vault calls itself an archive. Follow its links long enough and it becomes a world: Kagameru, still bearing the wounds of an ancient divine war, where roads arrive in the wrong century, ruins remember histories that never happened, and mirrors open toward places no map can contain.

01 Planned journeys
Eighteen doors.
No safe order.
Every planned adventure belongs to the same setting. A single night beside the wrong mirror may end at dawn, or return much later as the first thread of a history the players have already changed.
Multishots / 3 announced
5Short adventures
Five deeper trails where local conflicts expose recurring faces, dangerous relics, and consequences that refuse to remain where they began.
- The Pact in the Twilight In development
- Confronting Yourself
- The Mysteries of the Phantomhives
- 2 doors still sealed
Long term / 1 announced
3Campaign frameworks
Three long shadows over Kagameru, where crowns, divine wounds, and the Mirrorgate can reshape an entire table’s version of the world. The first is Shattered Hope, the setting’s main campaign.

Current production
Two doors stand ajar.
Of the eighteen, only two are being written today. The other announced journeys have a public title and premise, but work on them has not begun; the remaining slots are reserved and still unnamed.
Shattered Hope
~1%Estimated progress
Current workDefining the campaign spine and its major arcs.
The Pact in the Twilight
~25%Estimated progress
Current workPrelude and chapters 1–3 are drafted; now outlining the rest of the adventure.
Roadmap: The eighteen journeys describe the intended complete collection, not work already underway. Progress figures are editorial development estimates, not release dates, and lore, names, and the order of releases may still change as the setting is written and playtested.
02 Open the archive
Enter through
Obsidian.
The Mirrored Realms does not expect to be read from beginning to end. It expects curiosity. Open the repository as an Obsidian vault, find the welcome record, and follow whichever name first feels familiar.
Open source / Explore freely
The door was never locked.
Take what your table needs, change what the records got wrong, and follow the wiki-links until the vault begins answering questions you never asked.
git clone https://github.com/ShadowOkami4/Mirrorgate.git- 01Clone or download
Get the complete repository from GitHub.
- 02Open as a vault
Open the folder in Obsidian 1.8.7 or newer and trust its community plugins when asked.
- 03Find the entrance
Open
00 Library of Kagami/Welcome.mdand meet the library’s custodian. - 04Library or books
Follow the links in any order, or read the same records as books from the bookshelf in
04 Books.
03 Tools & workflow
The Scriptorium
behind the archive.
Every archive needs a scriptorium. The Mirrored Realms is written and connected in Obsidian today; other tools wait for the stage of development when maps and play sessions will need them.
Current workflow
Primary environment
Obsidian
The vault is the work itself. Every record is written, linked, and organised in Obsidian: the primary editor, the knowledge base, and the place where Kagameru is built.
Visit Obsidian ↗Supporting plugin
Atlas VTT
A free, open-source Obsidian plugin by Fabian Urbanek (ByteMirror) that turns the vault into a virtual tabletop: battle maps, tokens, fog of war, dice, and initiative. Optional; every note works without it.
Atlas VTT on GitHub ↗Own tooling
Cartography scripts
The world map comes from the project’s own scripts: one seed, simulated terrain, erosion, and climate, then rivers, realms, settlements, and roads.
Planned workflow

Canvas of Kings
Planned for later map work. It belongs to a later stage of development and is not yet part of production.
Canvas of Kings on Steam ↗Planned
TaleSpire
A planned 3D environment for building places of Kagameru as maps and bringing them to a virtual table. It is reserved for later-stage visualisation and play.

The realm notices
when you enter.
That may be the first thing inside it that tells the truth. Read the records, borrow what your table needs, and leave behind a version of the Mirrored Realms that did not exist before you entered.
