That part was fixed, however…
It might be the end of the demo

@FutbolDude21586 That’s helpful, thanks! That’s fixed as well now.
I’ve run RandomTest on the game files, and it passed, so that’s hopefully the last of the errors. But please do keep me posted if you find any more.

Really great murlocs 
good job
That’s another update up, with another 950 words of battle and night raid.
I was weighing up whether to include the Pictish prophetess, and ultimately decided she’s a bit like Chekhov’s gun… having mentioned her, it would be remiss not to give Mordred the opportunity to meet her.
Community feedback is welcome as always, so please give me a shout with any comments or if you spot any errors.

Evening, all. I’ve added another update with most of the scene with the Pictish prophetess. To give fair warning, it may well end on a cliffhanger, depending on the choices you make.
Scholarly and Wastrel Mordreds will have the opportunity to hone their powers of persuasion, whereas Warrior Mordred (as always) will be very good at stabbing things to death.
Edit: Oh, and we’re now at 29,341 words. At some point there may be a chapter 2. Maybe.

may i ask how many romances did you plan and wich gender each? for example, there will be 2 female Ro 2 Male Ro etc…
it will be nice to atleast have a bit info about it, i like the game (have to say i was kinda expecting a female gawain or atleast choose the gender of the ros maybe, i loved the female versión of Arthur in Fate Stay night 
)

@Kyle Not an inconvenience at all - I appreciate the nudge.
Most of my time and energy over the last couple of months has been taken up with work and family commitments, which hasn’t really left much room for creative writing. Guess I’ve also been reluctant to resurrect the thread after so long without a major update, although in retrospect that’s probably been counterproductive.
I’ll post an update this weekend with a little new content, and aim to get back into the habit of writing more frequently.

There’ll probably be five or six romantic options in total. Although, depending on the character involved and the choices Mordred makes, we could be talking about anything from life partners, to a one night stand, to a loveless political marriage.
Lancelot’s almost certain to be a romantic option. Pellinore’s son Lamorak could be an interesting romantic option as well, given the tangled relationship between his and Mordred’s families. Other posters here have suggested Arthur or Merlin as potential romantic options, and I can see the potential in either idea, although I’d need to look at it more closely once their personalities have been more fully fleshed out in subsequent chapters.
On the female side, Guinevere’s a canonical romantic option for Mordred. Morganna’s another strong contender, and the Pictish prophetess might well become one as well.

Mordred should be a RO option for himself - that would be both classical and pushing modern boundaries and I’m sure you have the writing capabilities to pull it off

Okay, so I’ve uploaded some new material to finish the night raid and the scene with the prophetess. New total: 30,885 words!
@Eiwynn If I’ve understood your suggestion correctly (and please do give me a shout if I’ve misconstrued it), then that probably isn’t really the sort of thing I’d give any screen-time. Pushing boundaries isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but I’ll leave it to individual readers to decide how their Mordred spends his free time when he’s off camera if they want that level of detail about his life.

I was thinking more of the vain self-love … not the area you went with it.

hmm will you consider in doing something like what @Lucid do or Cataphrak did in Mecha Ace allowing us players choose the gender of the Ros? (have to ask since lancelots,arthur and merlin romances are too good to pass out haha) 
(by the way i tagged lucid since he can tell us his opinión about that)

It’s an option, although if you’re writing more traditional characters, changing their genders would be something major that you’d have to decide.
Changing gender pronouns isn’t difficult. It just comes down to what you want.

Most of the times villains are made sympathetic by having the audience relate to a few kernels of good in them or by making people pity them for some tragic thing in their life. This is one of the few times where I can feel sympathy and admiration for a villain based on their darker side, and I personally love it.

@anon4518890 That sort of approach isn’t really going to work for this story, as Arthuriana isn’t exactly a gender-blind setting. There are certainly female characters who wield considerable power, but they do it in different ways to Arthur or Lancelot.
Queen Anna’s probably a decent example here - her conversation with Mordred after the banquet gives a fairly good steer of how I imagine this sort of setting would look from the perspective of an ambitious and capable noblewoman.
@ShinyFirefly Glad you enjoyed it! There’s nothing forcing your Mordred to do anything villainous, but there certainly isn’t any shortage of opportunities if you choose to go that route.

what i did mean is that for example i wont be reading any male romance, unless the game have what lucid did in his games, allowing the player to choose the gender… however i understand if that wont work in a setting like this or you dont actually feel like doing that.
