The Soul Stone War (WIP)— Full Demo Uploaded, Guide to Secret RO on #1124

Marvel does not own the words soul or stone … they are not even the first to use those words together in stories or other creative works … idk … I like the title the way it is personally.

I honestly like the title; it grabbed my attention pretty easily. Don’t really think it needs to be changed at the moment.

Though I will admit, when I first read the words ‘soul stones’, my dork of a mind reminded me of Power Stones. :laughing:

I honestly don’t know how I’ve brushed over this WIP for so long. The writing is superb, the action scenes are great, and the relationships omg :heart_eyes: The poly route with Morkai and Straasa is so so good already and it’s only just beginning to play out, can’t imagine how good it’ll be in the full game. Well done :hugs:

Nice game. You wouldn’t happen to be a Fire Emblem fan? The atmosphere and some of the plot reminds me of it.

Thank you, everyone, for the title suggestions, but I’m not looking to change the title. I really like it as it is and am attached to it, lol. Plus, I agree with @Eiwynn that Marvel doesn’t own the words soul or stone, and as @Okami-Nora has shown us, then using the variations of the same title has been going on long before Marvel. The Power Stones, omg, I had no idea this existed!

@forestnymph I’m happy you like it! And this poly is close to my heart, haha! I’ve already written scenes with it that I personally think are :heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes: Can’t wait to show everyone!

@InfiniteDreamer I’m sorry, but I’ve never played these games :sweat_smile: But if you’re saying that the atmosphere is similar, then maybe I should check them out! I love these sorts of fantasy games!

@Takashi_Shin Thank you! I accept the love of this blessing :heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes:

Also, I have updated the demo with a tiny fix and typo stuff. In the Manerkol dream, there are some intuition checks that weren’t firing, so I fixed that! With intuition over 60, you learn a tiny little detail about Manerkol that you wouldn’t otherwise!

I have to say that this was a truly enjoyable experience. Morkai, Strassa and and Daelynn are all very lovable, funny and endearing. As someone that really appreciates the character connections that are interwoven into the story, I was immensely pleased with how easy it was to care, and how genuine the characters felt. Love the choice of go-to curse word as well. Looking forward to knowing more about Eledwen… that was quite an entrance… timing SUCKED… but quite an entrance. Hope she’s got come Exedrin for poor Strassa. :blush::upside_down_face:

Btw, is Manerkol the secret romance option?

On one hand, it would be absolutely dope if we could romance him, being the sucker for asshole characters that I am.
On the other hand, it is very unlikely. He is supposed to be like a final boss, right? We are supposed to fight him, so it’s unlikely we could romance him.
Would love to kiss his red lips though, the author seems to mention that a lot. :eyes:

@NightieMe I’m so happy you liked it! Writing characters and building on their personalities and relationships is my personal drug! So hearing that they have the impact I meant them to have is an amazing stroke to my ego! :heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes: And yeah, I loved writing Eleden’s entrance! Also, Straasa needs a vacation :joy: That was just the wits option, though! He doesn’t get a migraine in the other options!

As for the secret RO… I CAN NEITHER CONFIRM NOR DENY! They shall remain a secret! No matter how much I’m just dying to tell everyone!

@Arian Stop calling me out, will you?! Let me perv over his red lips in peace :joy::joy::joy::joy::eyes::eyes::eyes:

An IF game inspired by Dragon Age?

@Arian… LOL- attraction to such characters is sadly relatable. LOL I call them “rough-around-the-edges”, but a friend of mine says that I have the savior-complex, and think that I can turn them around. Depending on the author, it may happen. LOL :smile_cat:

@Morgan _V … between that statement and Arian’s observation about the red lips, I will remain optimistic… and confident that Arian will probably represent the Manerkol fan-group. No pressure. :upside_down_face:Still… you should not be dying because of this… in fact, you should unburden yourself.

Wow I really enjoyed this wip! It’s been awhile since I came to this forum but I’m glad I did and found some good ones like this. Thank you! Hope to see it in the android store soon!

@joe_g7 THANK YOU! I love Dragon Age so much, I hope I can capture a similar feel with my game! I’m feeling hopeful!

@NightieMe I won’t need to unburden myself, actually, because the book will be out probably sooner than everyone thinks… And trust me, if there’s a Manerkol fan-group I’ll be happy to give them my blessing, LOL!

@Vanessa_Pang Thank YOU! I’m so glad you liked it! And, hehe, yes, it will probably be in the stores SOON-ISH!

Hey guys! I have some big news today! I’m happy to announce that I finished writing Chapter 9 yesterday! That’s right, in less than one week, chapter 9 has been finished! BUT! Although this is happy news, there’s something even better!

I can finally give you the number of chapters the book is going to have! The number is ~ ba dum tiss ~
10 C H A P T E R S. Yes, you heard me right! 10 chapters!

“But, wait a minute, Morgan,” you might say. “If the book has 10 chapters and you finished writing chapter 9, does that mean you only have one chapter left and then you’re done?!”

And the answer to this is… YES! ONE MORE CHAPTER AND THE WRITING IS DONE! After that, I’ll take about a month to beta test and edit everything thoroughly, and then it’s off to CoG!

BY SEPTEMBER, I’LL HAVE THE BOOK SUBMITTED! The Soul Stone War will be a reality! I can finally show everyone my work! you’ll find out who the secret RO is! You’ll get your Stone! ALL OF IT!

You can’t imagine how excited I am, omg! I have to tell myself that I still have LOTS AND LOTS of things to do otherwise, I get too freaked out to function :joy::joy::joy::joy::joy:!

But yeah, I’m ALMOST DONE! WISH ME LUCK!
