Griefshire

Griefshire is the third album by the gothic metal band Elis. It's their first concept album, and the last before Sabine Dünser's death. Because Sabine Dünser was the creator of the concept of Griefshire and the main songwriter of the songs on it, the other members decided, after her death, to release Griefshire in her memory.

==Concept== The story of the album features the following characters: '''The Narrator's Mother (a wise and benevolent witch-style woman that dedicated her entire life to guide people in their ways to redemption), The Narrator (the younger brother, permanently handicapped since birth, a very intelligent man that constantly deals with his inner doubts), The Narrator's Brother (the older brother, with an impressive skill to be a leader, but he corrupts all the villagers to make them follow him as a sect leader), The Narrator's Daughter (a young girl that inherited the wisdom and skills from her grandmother and was raised by her father to use her powers for good), The Brother's Wife (the wife of the older brother and the secret love for the younger, she discovers the truth about her husband but refuses to leave his side) and The Sect''' (the villagers, corrupted by the older brother who wanted to lead them to redemption although he could not do that).
