About this listen

The year is 1814, and Elena's life is about to change forever.

When Elena learns from her father that her past has been a lie, her entire life is uprooted all in one night. Along with a trunk of her mother's belongings, she is dropped off the next day at the pier to begin a voyage to her new home and her arranged marriage. While aboard the ship, she befriends Captain Jeremiah and his wife, Lucia, all while avoiding the condescending eyes of the first mate, Silas.

One night, after their ship runs aground in a storm, Silas is left to watch over Lucia and Elena on a tropical island, while the Captain goes to find help. Soon after, Kwesi and Bahia wash ashore, creating a new dynamic among the stranding souls, forcing Elena to determine what she wants for her life, and what she truly considers home.

A regency era story, with layers of humor, adventure, love, and self-discovery. A great episodic-series for fans of historical fiction, Jane Austen, Bridgerton, and other 19th century dramas.

By Way of the Sea is an original, immersive audio drama created by EraLore Studios, in collaboration with Stay Bizze. With voice acting by Brenna Patzer, Seth Rosenke, Karina Hilleard, John R. Smith Jnr, Enzo Leone, and Gervais Weekes.

    Kwesi offers a bit of advice to Elena, sharing in his village’s traditions of celebrating life, instead of mourning death. After breaking down in tears and opening his hardened heart to Elena, Silas agrees to join in a fireside ritual to dance Lucia into the afterlife. Once she is buried, they raise many-a-glass of whiskey in her honor, toasting all the wonderful memories they made and shared together. Then, lying and laughing in the sand in a drunken haze, they reflect on life and Lucia.
