Step through, into the world of

ACOTAR

A wall divides the mortal world from Prythian, the land of the fae — seven immortal courts of impossible beauty and casual cruelty, each ruled by a High Lord of terrible power. When a human huntress kills the wrong wolf in the woods, an ancient bargain drags her across the wall and into a war between the courts, an old curse, and a love that will remake what she is. Bargains are binding, masks hide more than faces, and every court hungers for something it should not want.

The Gates

Same world, a different night. Each gate is its own branching story — step through and write the first scene in.

All worlds & gates
The Night CourtThe Original Line

The Night Court

Behind the nightmare its ruler lets the world believe in lies the most beautiful court in Prythian — the city of Velaris under a sky of stars, and the found family who would burn the world for each other. The Original Line: come to the Court of Dreams, and find out what you are.

The Spring CourtOfficial

The Spring Court

Eternal spring over a manor of roses, and a golden High Lord who loves like a cage. The most beautiful prison in Prythian — where a mask hides a curse, and gentleness and control wear the same golden face.

Under the MountainOfficial

Under the Mountain

The hollow court where a tyrant chained seven High Lords for fifty years and made a game of their suffering. Riddles, trials, and bargains with something crueller than death — win her games or become one of her toys.

The Summer CourtOfficial

The Summer Court

Turquoise seas and white cities of pearl, and a young High Lord trying to build something fairer than the courts that raised him. Sun, water-magic, and the fragile hope of trust between courts that have every reason not to.

The Court of NightmaresOfficial

The Court of Nightmares

Hewn City, carved into a mountain, where the Night Court's other face rules by fear and the old cruelties are entertainment. A court of masks and predators — where you play the monster you're pretending to be, or you don't leave.

The Human LandsOfficial

The Human Lands

South of the wall, where mortals live short lives in the long shadow of the courts that once enslaved them. A cottage, a war coming, and a bargain that will drag someone across the wall and change everything — the way it always begins.
