As @Outrageous has said, the two confirmed ROs are Alessa and Hadrian. I do have more planned! But I’ve decided that I will not be announcing them prematurely. It would delve into spoiler territory and if there’s one thing I do not like is spoilers.
Oh, I must have misunderstood. When I read “turned away” I thought it would be something a bit more strong than those scenes suggest. Hadrian only turns you away if you kill Garrett and show no remorse.
And yes, you can’t really expect to have anything happen in the cathedral, can you? 
Not with Hadrian and, honestly, not with most people. Not even the less devout would risk angering any servant of God.

And on the third day of Hadrian, Alessa, and the MC’s journey from the city into the dangerous spoiler territory, were they had learned Rafael was hiding, they were accosted from all sides by the vile spoilers. However, they were able to use the ancient artifact W.I.P. to drive the spoilers back allowing them to escape with their lives. (Spoiler alert: Billy was the only cassualty.) Oh, no. One made it through.

The Ministry Building is done! 
“Who the fuck are you?”
And with 88k words total, we close a mountain range of a chapter. Made of many individual mountains, of many different sharpened peaks. But to say you step into the flatlands beyond would be a lie. For never has the ground been shakier beneath your feet.
The Third Interlude is next, and after that, chapter 10. Where all roads come to meet.
Between half-a-month hiatus and an accident I had with my glasses, this milestone definitely took longer than I planned. But it seems I say so every time, doesn’t it? It’s almost as if life doesn’t care about your plans. 
I am, however, very pleased with how it turned out. I suppose as long as I feel so, then it is alright.
As is costumery, I want to share a piece of fanart of the Rose! This time by the wonderful Missy (Tumblr). This is her interpretation of our cold mercenary, Alessa.
May the rest of October treat you kindly.

Final Update of the Public Demo!
And after so long, here it is. For those of you who played before, there is no new narrative content. This update consists mostly of background work - code polishing, typo and bug cleaning. Grammar fixes, error clearing, and some slight expanding of some choices.
All dull, sluggish work but work that must be done all the same.
- Current Wordcount: 504k (code excluded)
- Average playthrough length: 83k
It’s the Rose as polished as I can make it! I hope it suffices while I finish the game

I’m very excited for this one. But slightly confused as the word count is more than 6 times of the Average playthrough, does this mean that there are various paths/branches for majority of the choices?

How many books will there most likely be?

Glad you like it! I’ll reveal the whole cover art at some point - this is just an improvised header 
I’m honestly surprised by that number too. I think I might have calculated wrong, to be honest. CSIDE was lagging a lot since it is quite a considerable word-count, so the average playthrough length might not be correct. 
There are choices/paths that diverge a lot, however. Conversations and scenes that you can’t access in one playthrough. Now that I think about it… yeah, maybe the number isn’t that off. I mean, you have 3 completely different scenes depending on how you manage to enter Tarragona. Who you choose to talk to during your travels, etc.
So maybe not that far-off I’ll calculate it again, anyway.
It was initially planned to be a trilogy! But I already had to move back the cut off point between book one and two since the word count grew astronomically. The story stays exactly the same, it’s just that the first book ends at an earlier part.
I’ll still try to make it a trilogy, but who knows? I want to tell a story, so I’ll write as many books as I have to until I do.
