Hello Patrons!
I hope you're having a splendid Friday 💖 This is just a quick update on the chapter so far, I'll give you a more detailed rundown on Sunday with the weekly devlog.
I've already completed 2 of the 4 carriage RO/companion scenes. It's taken me much longer than I would have liked to write them, but there's so much to write and it becomes quite repetitive very fast whe...
2023-02-10 07:39:05 +0000 UTC View PostI've started writing the carriage/travel scenes - or at least the scenes outside the temple. So far, your chosen RO will finally get to be introduced to Salyra and let's just say that not everyone is going to receive a warm reception 👀
It's time to cast your vote! Which side story would you like to read for this month? Each side story features the point of view of a non-romanceable character.
The theme for this month is family! Considering the angst of Chapter 5, I thought it would be good to get insight into the thoughts of the MC's family.
Hello Patrons!
Here's another sneak peek regarding Salyra's scenes. This is a variation choice regarding choosing how you will address Salyra going forward. Don't mind the code and how it looks 😅
It's nearly the end of the first week of February and it feels like time is slipping by! In other news, my birthday is also coming up on Friday (the 10th), so I've decided that once Chapter 6 is completed, I'll take a two-week break from the main game to write the desperately needed extra game - Crowning Glory. It'll feature the MC and Crown tackling challenges and overcoming threats. Of course...
2023-02-05 10:57:43 +0000 UTC View PostI finished Lena's scene and now, I'm moving onto the scene I've been looking forward to the most 👀
Depending on what you want going forward with Salyra, you will get to meet Danzor and Rana afterwards 😅
2023-02-04 11:41:46 +0000 UTC View PostHello lovely Patrons! 😊
This isn't so much as a sneak peek but more of a quick progress update. I've completed the non-RO early scene of chapter 6 and I finished more lore dump questions regarding the Nomad prisoners and what to expect regarding the alliance.
Next on the agenda is dealing with whether Lena is free or not and offering the player a chance to speak to her a bit more...
2023-02-03 16:02:18 +0000 UTC View PostWith the public demo being updated with Chapter 5, what better way to celebrate than with a sneak peek of Chapter 6? 😂
Because of the way Chapter 5 is structured and ends - if you choose to retire to bed with Irus versus you are romancing someone else - I have to write two variations of the start of Chapter 6. The one variation is for Irus romancers and looks a little like this...

For those of you who keep up with my weekly devlogs, you'll know that I'm working on bonus games for Ishari tier Patrons.
Originally, I was using a twine template downloaded from itch.io. Unfortunately, when I looked at how the game was, for some reason the settings, restart buttons etc didn't show up at all despite being there. I thought that the colour was off, so I...

Hello Patrons!
This week has been spent completing and posting the bonus side stories as well as dealing with the bonus side games for the Ishari tier.
I will be posting the demo for the public on Wednesday, which means that this week will be spent mostly on dealing with asks on Tumblr and any coding issues/bugs that might pop up during playthroughs.
February is a short month,...

Hello Patrons!
Chapter 5 is now available to play here.
The chapter includes:
In this side story, read all about the early life that the MC led with Salyra in Ishari. The story is written in Salyra's perspective and details the challenges she faced in raising the MC alone.
There are no spoilers in this side story but it might give a little insight into the revelations in Chapter 5.

Hello Patrons!
This week, I managed to complete Chapter 5. It's mostly complete with only a few outstanding scenes that I'll come back to add once I start edits.
Chapter 5 is around 78 368 words long and the total word count for the game is around 324 810 words.
Testing will continue this week and I should be able to post an update for Cyre tier Patrons and up by the end ...

I come bearing good news 🎊
Chapter 5 is officially complete. I finished Anu's final scene this afternoon and that means the game will be sent to my testers later tonight.
Once again, I left out a few scenes that I will add once I do edits - they're not major scenes but just extra options for players and some continuity stuff regarding the Nomad Tribe prisoner...
2023-01-21 12:12:01 +0000 UTC View PostIt's done! 🥳️ I finally completed Irus' sex scene and can I just say that this afternoon felt like I was a porn writer instead of a romance writer - not to say that the scene reads like porn, but gods, there were four different variations of the sex scene plus a virgin variable to keep track of 😵
It's not nearly as detailed as I would have wanted it to be - in other words, it lack...
2023-01-18 13:52:49 +0000 UTC View PostIrus' scene is taking longer than I anticipated - I forgot to account for the non-sexual interactions that had to be written 👀
For those who are not going to be doing anything sexual, rest assured that there will be some interactivity to Irus' scene. It is all quite sweet and romantic and makes me swoon a little if I'm being honest 😂

It's happening 👀 By the end of today, I'm hoping to be close to done, if not done with Irus' sex scene.
Choosing to spend time alone with him does not mean that you are agreeing to sex, it will just expand the romance scene with him. Going to bed does not deduct any romance points with him, it will just preclude you from accessing his sex/romance scenes.
A friendship with him w...
The confrontation scene is done which means that all I have left are the final RO/friendship scenes 🥳️
This was meant to be the second scene for the friendship/romance scenes, but I cut out the first scene so for this part, you will only get the chance to speak to one person before the chapter ends.

Hello Patrons!
I hope you've been having a lovely year so far - we're already halfway through January which feels unbelievable.
This past week has seen chapter 5 reach around 54K + words in total. It is far from over, but because I really want to keep the update slated for this month for Patrons, I'm cutting out a few scenes (when am I not?). I've completed the big revelation scenes...
2023-01-15 16:01:18 +0000 UTC View PostAs Cyre tier Patrons, you will receive one side RO story for January 2023. The story will detail one of the RO's perspectives on events that occur during Chapter 5.
As always, the option with the most votes will be shared with you.
2023-01-14 08:06:04 +0000 UTC View PostI'm a little over 40K words into chapter 5 and once again, I am enjoying myself a little too much writing kissing scenes. This scene belongs to Sir Oren - with a shy MC. Things to note is that you will only be able to kiss Oren or Elora (Anu later on) if you are not locked-in with Irus into his romance. There is also a non-kiss goodbye option for those not fans of smooches.

I'm kind of already in love with Anu's romance route. Flirt with her in the temple, and your MC will get a very lovely nickname from the brash priestess. This is from a scene with a shy MC.

Please choose an option from below. As always, the story that gets the most votes will be posted for you to enjoy 😊
The theme for this round of stories is the past - specifically the past of the MC's parents and Erlan.
Look at that, two sneak peeks in one day 👀 I'm on the last scene for Elora's romance/friendship time together (I completed Irus' earlier today) and thought I'd give you a sneak peek on what to expect.
Curious about your old Mumsy? Well, prepare yourselves because you'll discover the truth later in this chapter 😉

I honestly love the dynamic between a shy MC and Irus 😅 Sometimes, I have to actively remind myself that I am writing a fantasy game as well, otherwise you would all be getting some very NSFW/romantic scenes way too early in the chapter.
This scene could have easily become a lot more intense if I didn't stop myself, so enjoy this sneak peek 😋

Hello Patrons!
I hope the first week of January has been going well for you all 💖
This week, I've been busy writing Chapter 5 and dealing with the public release of Chapter 4. I've also added in an Open Dyslexic font option and a font-size option.
So far, Chapter 5 is around 20 000 words long. I completed the arrival at Ishari scenes, and Lena's scenes and introduced both S...
2023-01-08 08:01:00 +0000 UTC View PostAs most would tell you, don't go poking at bears 👀
After completing the interlude RO scenes, I realised that players might want to talk to Lena alone - it also gives players a chance to learn more about Lena and the Nomad Tribes. So instead of writing the scene of arriving in Ishari, I ended up writing Lena's scenes (again). I finally finished it off and things are finally going to start moving towards the main climax of the chapter.
For ...
2023-01-06 08:45:35 +0000 UTC View PostI'm nearly done with the interlude scenes - it's just Elora's scene that needs to be finished off and then the next scene will be dealing with arriving in Ishari.
I told myself that I need to slow down the romance because adding in a kiss scene every time there's a romance interaction is the same as writing a cheap romance novel. Then I laughed and continued to write more smooches. You ca...
