Fen, My God, no amount of words can describe how much I want to just implode. the story-line is so thrilling , captivating, anchoring even. every character literally has my heart  (Farah more than anything) and I cant stand being with out more of this wonderful creation. though I wanted to imagine the protagonist sparring or engaged in at least a battle. This was fantastic the work you put into making this was worth it.

Thank you so much, that’s very kind of you!! I’m very glad you enjoyed it! ❤️🙏 I definitely have plans for future sparring/fighting scenes for mc~ You’ll get to make good use of your weapon/magic choices 👀

your welcome and I can't wait until your update. keep up the good work.

I cried multiple times playing this and only the first chapter is available 😭, wonderfully written characters and playing the MC is so so fun. I will be following this story for sure, thank you so much for sharing it!

Thank you so much for playing and for your kind words!! 😭❤️❤️

Ridiculously charismatic characters, gorgeous art and lovely writing featuring delightfully tragic sibling angst. Every single character has charmed me and the plot synopsis only intrigues me more. I look forward to future updates! <3

Thank you so much for playing and for sharing your thoughts!! <3 😭 ❤️❤️

so how do you feel about making me shed an uncontrollable amount of tears with the loss and grief of our siblings???,,.,,,fjskdjsk. on a separate note. having lost my older sister to an accident, the grief written in this story is so beautifully portrayed and dear fucking god it was so uncanny how accurate the process of grieving was to mine. very well done, and beautifully written!! i can't wait to see more from you 💖💖

Mobile version?

(+1)

i believe it should still work on mobile, but right now it hasnt been designed with that in mind so some things potentially might not work (I was able to play a bit on my phone but I haven’t fully tested the whole game). I’ll look into optimizing it for mobile eventually but it’s going to take some deeper delving into coding so it’s lower on my list of priorities for now. If you run into any game-breaking issues on mobile let me know and I’ll try to see if I can figure out how to fix them so it’s still playable. :)

hey i have a question the game. i played this before but then i had to stop bc the chapter ended so after a little bit i found out the game had updated (aka today, bc i when back to a old save to finish where i left off) but i go and try to find out where my charter info is so i go on stats bc i didn't find a charter info thingy. But it said something like 'Currently Unviable' but idk if this is wrong and that i'm looking at a wrong place to look or that i need to restart the game, can someone please help ty ^^

(+1)

Many of the links in the side menu are currently unavailable until I implement them in the game later on. If you haven’t played since the update though, I would advise you restart from a new save—a few new variables/choices were added to the character creator and to Farah’s scene in MCs bedroom. :)

tysm for answering my question ty!! :D

(+1)

fantastic update!!

Thank you!! ❤️❤️

I don't know what to say, this IF truly accompanied my lonely night. 10/10 putting it in my collection. Also, don't forget to rest author! >_<

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it!! :D ❤️❤️🐛

WHY AM I CRYING OVER FICTIONAL SIBLINGS?

(+1)

mission accomplished 👍 (sorry 😔🙏)

(+1)

i just realized luca and lilith/lucien. Why did it take me a day?

🤔🤔🤔

(1 edit)

the fact that i cant tell if your trying to hide what i think is going on or if im thinking way too into things is probably the worst part of this response. nonetheless this is a very fun experience

hope it keeps you up at night 🙏👍 (jk) much love ❤️❤️

(+1)

WAIT HOLD ON... are you on to smth?? I was sus Luca or L were the wolf because they both have yellow eyes (and the way Luca acts about it is strange) but... they were both in a fire, have the same burn marks, MC doesn't know Luca died died.... L could be projecting into their dreams, a part of their childhood subconscious or something... But the fact that L is also familiar to mc??? And they're both mages... umm 😳 THEIR TATTERED CLOTHES ARE SIMILAR TOO..... Omg I was already going to romance L, but aaaaaa 😳😳😳

(+2)

I  read your comment and went to look at the character art again. Similar burn scar shape and placement, eye color, and although not exact similar hair shape. You might be onto something good eye.

(1 edit) (+1)

Luca was only 13 when they "died" so that might explain the headshape which is what i assume you meant rather than hair

(1 edit) (+1)

Nope I meant hair lol. Maybe I just watch to much anime since hair is usually unique to main characters in most of the anime I've watched. Not in all but quit a few important characters have distinct hair styles or colors. 

fair enough. Tho something definitely happened to their hair if I'm right.

Went from giggling at silly aurynn to crying uncontrollably over farah, that's my baby 😭😭

gotta slip in some comic relief before twisting the knife 👍 (sorry bb farah)

Really loved it. I'm actually wiping a few tears away at the moment, myself. My MC is such a contradiction. Gentle and charming with those he cares about, but also rather feisty and confrontational. Poor Keiran...they are about to get a fierce but loving fiance. Like...adopting a cat. Only its a human prince.

So when do we get to storm Dad's office and threaten for answers?

The Lunar King thinks I'm a little Lamb for the slaughter, but this Lamb might be his worst nightmare. =P

(+2)

I'm really glad to hear that--thank you so much for playing!! ❤️❤️ Contradictory mcs are always real fun to play! It's fun to hear about everyone's mcs and their fave personality stats. :D

Kieran will be a tough one to crack--but I'm sure your mc will be able to get through that ice! A fiercely loving companion/fiance is just what they need. :)

MC will be on their quest for answers in the next update!

The Lunar King better watch out (but so should you 😰😰)

Thanks so much for playing and for sharing your thoughts! I really appreciate it and enjoy hearing them!! ❤️❤️

This was unexpected - but a Lovely surprise! You continue to Wow me with your writing; you have such a talent for description. The way you portrayed the blood stone and pact and how that process felt was Breathtaking. Just downright- - Gorgeous.
Love how my MC is shaping out and the dialogue/pacing remains delicious. I’m naturally interested in (Princess for me)Kieran since you gave us a cheeky lil teaser on who they are - - and I Love complicated attractions —but I really like Samira too. When she wasn’t just - Charmed by a flirty MC, I was impressed/intrigued! I like that your character isn’t an exception~ Also wondered if Farah was on the spectrum (which would be amazing); I could see it.

Can’t wait to see more of the characters (feels like more family’s coming up) and hopefully more ROs! So interested in their depth and how they fall into this wicked plot you weave. ;) 

(+1)

Thank you so much!! I enjoy trying to do lyrical descriptions (thesaurus is my best friend) so I'm glad to hear you liked them! ❤️ 

Complicated attractions are fun and that's what I had in mind for Kieran's romance/friendship arc. :D And Samira isn't often too impressed with a very flirtatious mc lol--she deals with Aurynn on a daily basis and doesn't need two of him.

I hadn't written Farah specifically with that in mind, but I don't mind if you'd like to view her as on the spectrum! I could see it fitting her. I do intend to write some of my other characters with autism in mind, though. :)

More family will be coming up in the next update for sure--like mc's mother for one. And the rest of the ROs will be introduced in chapter 2! :D

I hope you continue to enjoy it as it's updated! Thanks so much for playing and for sharing your thoughts--it really makes my day!! ❤️❤️

We love a cheeky thesaurus use~ ;) I have my thesaurus out Constantly, so that hit me on a spiritual level lol

Agreed! In fact, they’re my favorite type of romance barring ‘they're Perfect for each other, yet still can’t get their ish together’ kind. I already have a feeling I’m gonna like Kieran because Aurynn called them ‘soft’ and ‘puppy’ . Love me an ice queen with a sweet, creamy center~ But it also depends on if K doesn’t care about the effects of this war (and particularly MC with all their incredible loss); if they’re just an ass, I won’t be attracted at all. It’s actually why I’m looking forward to Kieran/Samira poly — that’ll be REALLY Friggin Interesting. (And give some lovely balance.) Because - why is SAMIRA attracted to K?? 🤔👀 I did think that was Exactly why Samira wasn’t about that flirt life haha

I love that you write with something like autism in mind! I have autistic and ADHD friends and they really opened me to seeing those (potential) traits in people. Personally feel like we’re all on a spectrum in some way; can’t wait to see the characters you intended it for (if we haven’t already)!

Yasssss, MOM. Bring on the complex familial relationships. It’s a shame so many siblings died as it seems the Mothers(TM) were very much conspiring against each other/ensuring their child was number one. Couldn’t have been easy establishing sibling bonds.

I’m so glad to see that! I’m sure I will with what you’ve given us thus far~ Thank you for commenting back as well! ❤️🤘🏾

(+1)

I wouldn't worry about any of the ROs being irredeemable assholes lol--Kieran may come off as cold and standoffish, but they aren't a complete dick. ❤️

I gotta think about all the poly dynamics and how those will flesh out throughout the story, but I think Kieran/Samira will be an interesting one to write 🤔

The mothers definitely made things hard between the siblings, always trying to pit each other against each other, but the sibs managed to stay really close regardless.  😌❤️ MC will be able to choose whether their own relationship with their mother is close or strained. 

I loved this! The options for MC's personality were so good - I do kinda wish we could see more reactions from other characters, but I was overall very satisfied with being able to play as a grief-stricken royal desperately trying to maintain an air of dignity. 


Also there's no way I can leave poor Farah 😭! She just wants her big siblings to spend time with her 😢

(+1)

Thank you! I do want characters to be able to react to MCs personality, but since it’s early I need to give players some time to build up their main stats first and then I will go about figuring out how to code in reactions to MCs personality. :)


(I know I’m so sorry Farah 🙏🙏😭 )

im already smitten with aurynn holy crap......... i was giggling and kicking my feet during the favor exchange kjfghjdgb 

(+1)

he is indeed a loveable pest 💕

I don’t know if it’s coz I’m dumb and have misunderstood but in the RO section it says Kieran is your betrothed but in my last play through it said my sister was betrothed to him 🤔 

(1 edit) (+1)

It’s ok! That’s right! :) In the game’s description, you’ll find it says mc will have a premonition that Nour will not come back alive if they go to Celestyl, so mc resolves to take their place. :)

Absolutely loved the update!  So excited to see more of this story!

Thank you and thanks so much for playing!!! ❤️❤️❤️

amazing update ^_^

♡(ミ ᵕ̣̣̣̣̣̣ ﻌ ᵕ̣̣̣̣̣̣ ミ)ノ 💖💕 (=^・ω・^=) thank you!

Fen omg the update was just... amazing 😭💗

Thank you!! 💖 I’m glad you enjoyed it 

The writing of this is amazing! I'm in love with the story just from this small bit. Can't wait for more!

Thank you!! 💖 The next update is coming soon; I hope you like it :)

(+3)(-2)

This is excellent! i truly look forward to more!



Also Farah is such a brat, its incredible how much you make me hate her.

(+6)

for real! i actually teared up a bit when i realized she destroyed Parim's tea set. 

Likewise!

Thank you, I’m glad you liked it! :)

Farah is young and lashed out but you’ll have a chance to talk to her in the next update and hopefully reconcile her first impression 🙏 :)

I have also edited her scene slightly for the upcoming update to try to better insinuate she is acting hysterical for another underlying reason rather than just to be bratty

(+1)

It's short and still made me tear up multiple times! The way you write quickly makes the reader fall in love with your characters

(+1)

Thank you!! 💖💖💖 yay💖 :-)

oh no chat it's another demo i've fallen head over heels in love with LMAO

no seriously i think i replayed this something like 7 times, just testing out all the different choices... so so so delicious, keep it up fen!!! sending you love <3

(+1)

🥹😭 Thank you!! I'm glad you enjoyed it! ❤️

(+1)

…Wow. Truly. WOW

I am Blown away by what I just read. For just the start of this IF (- and your First one!), this was so Heavy and Powerful and Compelling. I *MUST* say: ‘Bravo’. A lot of people write on war and loss (or both), but don’t actually sell that terrible space and how it affects relationships. Yet you managed in the first few pages to really drive in the Very clear tragic and desolate themes in this story. The loss is Palpable to the MC; as is their Grief, Blame and Regret. I really feel like I’ve lost so much of my family and yet I still have to hold it all together for those who are left. (Or not! The option variety is so Good!!) The Farah scene was Delicious. Just Achingly visceral and Lovely. Respect for not holding back/making that interaction easy/neat. Phew….

Definitely adding this to my collection. Keep doing what you’re doing. I am Cheering and Screaming and Crying lol ❤️

🥹🥹🥹 Thank you so much!! I’m glad you enjoyed it that much 💖 Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts and first impressions!!! It really makes my day. :3 I hope you continue to enjoy it as it’s updated!  💖

I don't  know if anyone else thinks this. I hope we can say our childhood friend was our first love. If not it is true in my head cannon.

(1 edit) (+4)

While mc’s relationship with Luca will remain platonic, you’ll be able to tell another character that Luca was your first love when you were a child

(1 edit)

I'm so excited to read more of this!!! The demo was great and the character bios have me really excited for what's to come

Thanks so much for reading!!! 💖💖💖

God very rarely am I this captivated by a demo. The prose and the setting are soo good, really excited to see more of this story and your writing.

Thank you for playing!! I'm glad you liked it :D

😭😭 this is so sad

alexa play despacito 😭

Ah man, Farah will not recover from this. I am not very patient around kids nor do I like them any so that probably influences this opinion, but boy oh boy I'd be so pissed. I definitely understand why she did it; she's young, spoiled in a way MC and Nour weren't, confused, and going through her own troubles but Christ I would just force the girl out instead of listening to her whine.

(+1)

The beginning has me hooked. Special mention to the coding and music. It really add to the atmosphere.


Spoiler for first Farah appearance Wish MC could cry out that it was Parim tea set as soon as Farah broke the tea cup. Because one of mine would instinctively said it and then go to gather all of the pieces. While I could see another flatly/angrily declare it as they put away the rest to make sure Farah can't touch it. Or more stern/Dignified MC trying (and maybe falling) very hard to stay calm and tell Farah that this tea cup belonged to Parim and how it was made.

But of course I understand if Farah breaking it is necessary for plot reasons.

I think another option when trying to calm yourself down that be neat. MC asking themselves what would Parim do. Could end up working and increase dignified, gentle, straightforward stat maybe ? Or backfire as MC cry or get angry alternatively. Just an idea that seem appropriate.

I hope that if the tea set must be broken. That later we can repair it with gold with Farah helping. And then maybe put it on Parim tomb as a gift. Or better. MC take Farah with her to Parim tomb as well as the repaired tea set. So Farah can apologize and present it. And after both drink tea and talk with each other as well as Parim and the rest of their siblings.

Thanks so much for reading and thanks for your suggestions! I’ll keep them in mind. :) 💖

No problem ! I can’t wait to see where this goes. I checked the tumblr. And as someone on the aroace spectrum. Can I say how refreshing it is to have a world so accepting of us. Many IF creator do include us. (Some better then other unfortunately) But this time. Your world really give me the feeling that we don’t just exist. We are integrated into the world. And an inherent part of it. Seriously the worldbuilding is so queer that it made me think about why more writers didn’t think about veering away from the more typical idea we have of marriage in fantasy/historical WIP.

So I’m following this very closely !

I'm glad to hear that! ❤️💕I'm also aspec so time to whip out the split attraction model babeyyyy

(+5)

Oh my stars. That was absolutely amazing. I am blown away by this demo. The prose, the characters, the setting and the customization options... top tier stuff. Sorry for gushing but wow I can't wait for more of this.

Thank you so much!!! I'm glad you enjoyed it!! 💕❤️ :D

I like what you have so far, can't wait  to see more!

(+1)

Thank you and thanks so much for playing!! ❤️

(+6)

It's so nice. I feel sad because of what happened to the mc's siblings, already feeling a lot of emotions while talking to Parim 💔...

(+5)

the poor things...(i say like it's not me putting them through this)

(+5)

Good job! just finished the demo, the story is getting more and more interesting, the mc is also highly customizable (which you have my thanks for), in any case I'm super excited to see further updates!
