Lux: City of Lies - Book 4 of The Evertree Saga by Thom Baylay

Thank you so much for joining the series and sharing your support :smiley:
I actually get this question quite a lot. My answer right now is that I don’t have immediate plans to bring the family member to Lux, but I am definitely considering options for involving both them and your choice of home city in the story in the future. It’s a lot of different coding though. I don’t make things easy for myself :stuck_out_tongue:

Look, I’ve been replaying this series every year since 2022, and I never get tired of it. It’s a tradition at this point. The worldbuilding is massive and incredible, and the characters are so well-written—they feel alive. Don’t even get me started on the romance. I’ve tried all the routes across the three books, and they were all amazing. It’s definitely some of the best romance writing I’ve seen in Interactive Fiction.

Especially with O. Man, he could string me along endlessly, and I’d willingly follow him. That’s how much I love him. I actually consider him my ultimate CoG/HG/HC husband, lol.

This series is a masterpiece, and I can’t wait for the next book—or my fifth playthrough starting from Evertree Inn (whichever comes first).

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:

Just a quick update to say I’ve reuploaded the demo :slight_smile:
I probably won’t do this for published games (including Kitsune which will be released soon!) but while I’m working on finishing this book, please enjoy the demo!

Are there by any chance the MC could purchase a horse while keeping his pony? Because I ain’t too sure it was that fitting enough for the roles for an MC who follows a path that requires to be quick in many situations.
