Just to make you aware, Dashingdon hosting will be closing soon so I would recommend moving this to cogdemos or uploading a compiled html file:

I’m here with the first-ever installment of Dangerous Games — A Throne Beneath the Grave, kicking things off with an 8k-word prologue 
!!!
What to Expect from Dangerous Games — A Throne Beneath the Grave, First Installment:
-
Experience two forms of death
-
Choose your past life’s profession: were you an Imperial Physician, Grand Diplomat, or Warlord?
-
See the world through the eyes of the body you’ll inhabit after death
-
Partially customize your MC (more options unlock in Chapter 1)
-
And most importantly… die twice
If you spot any gender inconsistencies or bugs, feel free to send them my way—I’ll try to push an update sometime next week. I hope you all enjoyed this update as much as I enjoyed writing it, and that your Sunday is treating you exceptionally well

For free players of Tainted Souls, the “What to Expect” details can be found in these two links—covering Chapter 3 PT2 and Chapter 4 PT1. Please note that Chapter 4 Part 2 will be available exclusively to paid subscribers. If you’d like to dive straight into Chapter 4 Part 2, you can unlock it for just three dollars.
Just a heads-up: the next sidestory poll will only be available to paid Patreon users. As for tomorrow’s update—I hope you all have fun with the three demos (well… technically four 
).
I won’t pretend this month was my best, because it honestly wasn’t. My life has been feeling a bit like one of those Chinese short dramas you see pop up on your screen—except without the wealth. I had a lot planned, but… meh. Some of it will be pushed into the next Patreon update, so don’t worry.
They always say “slow and steady wins the race,” and I’m holding onto that. Next month will be ten times better. Even though my stress levels have been through the roof (thanks to family stuff), I’ve got to say—the test matches turned out perfectly.
You’ll notice I didn’t include a word count this time. That’s because I plan to run a little random test with Tainted Souls to see if I can squeeze in a few more words before the launch date tomorrow. So please bear with me.

All four updates are now live. I tried adding a few more words, but honestly, I wasn’t satisfied with what I wrote—so I’ll save it for the next update instead. As always, if you notice any inconsistencies, please let me know.
This new update of Tainted Souls sits at 30k words (with codes intact). It might feel a little short, but it has high replayability, so I hope you’ll enjoy exploring the different paths I’ve written. Tomorrow I’ll try to answer some asks, and on Thursday I’ll dive right back into writing.
