Thanks although i wanted to ask about their character descriptions but that might be pushing it if it’s a spoiler.
Progress Update
So I’m still working on ‘The Prophecy’ (for anyone wondering) and I’m aiming for two updates before the end of this month or before my ‘Final Exams’ start. So far…
Chapter 2 is totaling 7500+ words
Route 2 for Chapter 1 is totaling 2300+ words
I’m planning on fixing up the stats screens one more time (especially pertaining to the relationship systems) and I may do an overhaul to Chapter 1. But if all else fails I’ll just change some inconsistencies in the chapter.
Edit: Oh yeah, and I’m considering opening up a Tumblr for anyone who’s interested. (For asks or what-not)
In preparation for the release of chapter three (tomorrow) I opened up a tumblr blog for ask’s or what-not.
• I did some heavy editing (coding) to the stats screen and fixed up and changed some inconsistencies in the prologue and chapter one which you be able to see in the tomorrow’s update, though it’s not very noticeable.
Have a great day!
Sneak Peak
“I wonder what Mavinol does all day cooped up in that room of his.” Halalah looks up at a room that sits high up in the not-so-distant castle, or that’s what I think he’s doing. I can’t see anything with my head stuck inside a hole.
“Who cares what he’s doing right now!” I exclaim, though my words come out rather muffled. “We have a problem in our hands!”
“A problem?” Mira groans. “Don’t tell me you still can’t find it.”
I pluck my head out of the hole and dust the dirt out of my hair. “Unfortunately, no. But on the bright side—Actually, there’s no bright side. We’re doomed.”
“Welp! I didn’t want to be the one that says it but—”
“Don’t you dare.” I growl.
“I told you so.”
I roll my eyes and huff. “Don’t act like you don’t have some blame in this too, Hal.”
He shrugs, folding his arms, looking at me with indifference. “Yes, true, but it doesn’t change the fact that I told you so.”
UPDATE

Have a great day!
pronoun changed. im playing a male mc.
also, while im still not done with the whole chapter. it does go on for quite a while without choices and sometimes it tends to be a little tedious for me to read all that text. i am aware its important to establish how the previous prophecy’s life and how we’re just along for the ride but the wall of text just leaves me, a little bit bored and more inclined to skip over the text. some parts manage to bring back my attention with the whole using a whole city for a portal but most just goes past my head.
the part where the prophecy is, stuck in a hole? is confusing and jarring. the switch from the last scene threw me off hard and i have not enough information to understand why they are in a hole?? what they need to replace and such. it helps build some of the world and how anything relating to humans is a no no but other than that, im not thoroughly engaged. the introduction of the choices quickly brought back my attention though. maybe if its possible, add tiny choices between the scene switches. maybe it could be a time to use it as a personality raising scene too. cause not much seems to be happening on the personality stats.
Thank you for the feedback!
For the part where mc gets a little of the their past life’s backstory, I was thinking about how long it was too, but I couldn’t think of what sort of choices to include into it. I’ll definitely do something about that to make it engaging.
A hole? You mean the scene where you and Javais were flying? I’ll see what I can do about that. Can you screenshot which scene you’re talking about?
On my way to fix the pronoun problem.
Ok, I see what you’re talking about here now; A scene from the backstory. I’ll definitely add something there.
Oi @frifli
Oi there @frifli
The thing is that my MC did NOT told them 'bout the dream 'bout Javais cause I did not chose the choice who’s Javais? at all. I chose how to get home and the following choices…
Can you direct me to which choice led to that error. I can’t seem to find it.
On my way to fix it.
No worries. I think I found it. An error in the second route, right?
Going with Ari [Jester Girl?] and asking who’s Javais
The routing error should be fixed now, and I added some choices is some scenes for chapter two to hopefully making it more engaging.
Ok, so I was debating on whether to introduce the RO’s now to give you a general idea of them but I wasn’t sure what would be best, so I want you to choose for me.
- Wait until MC meets the RO’s first to introduce them
- Just introduce them now

Hello everyone.
The Prophecy is still alive (if any one had any concerns.)
I have been rewriting the chapters that are currently out. The only thing left to do is code chapter’s one and two as I have already finished with the Prologue, which I will be releasing later today.
Quite a lot has changed but the core plot still remains.
Thank you for waiting.
The New Demo has been released. It is just the prologue at the moment. I have double-checked to ensure that there are no bugs, but if there are any, please report them to me. I hope you enjoy!
That usually happens when the line of code in the startup file has a typo, or just doesn’t exist in a way the saves manager recognizes.
Some feedback as I go along; edits inbound slowly.
Mood on seeing this: NO! No thank you. Ever.
More detailed thoughts: Not as important to move on this, but all choices here are unappealing to me. The recommended edit is having a couple non-coffee alternatives, or at the very least a way to outright refuse if there won’t be a reason for this drink choice to get referenced again. Be very strange to ask for the apple one in the next/main world this story takes place in, I suspect.
A bit of a non sequitur here. The part I highlighted doesn’t seem to have any prior context for the MC to be thinking this, but that could be down to the choice path I made to get here. It is an entirely new term, with that being the first time I’ve seen it.
There might be a bit of missing text here. He didn’t say anything, but the MC was always going to end up following him, so that much is a step forward.
I just realized my first screenshot was broken. Sorry about that!
For my final edit, I have this to say. You have an excellent sense for balancing tension in each scene of your story so far. I remember reading the older version, and the extra details you’ve put in have been great additions that have really fleshed the opening act out a fair bit. Truly, well done! This is setting itself up to be one of the good ones.
That’s because I forgot to add the sm init. I’ll do so now.
