"Death is the end of every worldly pain", Geoffrey Chaucer

Or is it?

Assume the role of the alchemist Dr. Charon in this otherworldly cozy adventure.
Learn the story of the troubled souls who can't leave this world.
Help them pass to the other side using your potion-making skills.
And slowly uncover the story of Charon and her gift.

But remember.
The price of a soul's peace is a heavy one.
If they wish it... they must pay it in full...

Hello! I'm so intrigued by this--cozy games are very much my thing, but I seem to be unable to get anything with a screen reader upon launch. Is there something I need to do to enable reading? Using NVDA. Looks like a lovely project if I can get it running!
