The Pernicious Panacea

Lol, maybe if we go apeshit and murder every world leader and anyone that doesn’t bow to us? But that’s pretty far-fetched and also kinda not the point of the story.

Thanks. You’ll have to wait and see, though that question will be answered at the end of MMM. :slight_smile:

Personally, I enjoy the grounded “you’re just a serial killer, not another OP magic demigod.” If I wanted to take over the world again, I’d just go replay LH3. Just saying, because obviously we don’t know your plans. If it does become a trilogy, I simply hope we stay just a murderer. You have a scary and effective set-up here that you should ride the whole way, imo.

Yeah, I definitely prefer writing smaller scale stories. Don’t worry, there will be no taking over the world, I just meant that you all will see the direction the series will be taking at the end of this installment.

When you choose the option to fake a smile to your mother it says it raises deception and charisma by 1 but it actually raises them by 2
From the code:

#“Of course, mother,” you say lightly, faking a smile. The more her guard is down around you, the easier this will be in the long run.
*set mother %+3
*set charisma +2
*set deception +2
(+1 Deception, +1 Charisma, Mother Increases)

I get it and after playing through what’s been written so far, I guess it wouldn’t make much sense anyway. Still can’t wait though, but take your time. As they say, “Fools rush in”.

Your focus is on Devero, who your consider to be one of your biggest threats, along with the three other members of this investigation. how convenient.
After a while longer searching around the outside of the building, you and the other gaurds agree that nothing appears to be amiss

Bug with the mana amount.

Unlike most magicians, however, you’re able to harvest a measly three mana per day

The text says I have 3 mana, but the stats screen shows 2 mana.

Maybe the MC only thinks they have three mana. They are crazy after all.

I had reported the second problem, too…

No, you didn’t.

Also, who’s excited for Chapter 2? I’ve been making lots of progress, like today, where I wrote 2.5k words, so I should be posting it within the next few days. :slight_smile:

So if we’re getting a trilogy is there a chance that the mc might have children in one of the later games?

Possibly, but that’s not really something I’d be particularly interested in doing in any of my stories.

Will we get to see the events of the younger sister’s death in a flashback?

Yep! I plan on her being in three flashbacks, one per chapter spread throughout the story.
