Im loving this story and from the update Morgana just like listen the council and king sure they had you tortured for years and broke your mind but they expect the best behavior from you immediately after releasing you and not giving you anytime to get reacquainted with living

You’re on a roll with these updates, very nice.
Also would it be possible to add an option for white hair?
It would look nice with the glowing red eyes I think.

I do like bad ends when knowing full well its a bad end. “There is no choice, but if you like, take this choice.” Ill do it just cause I want to see the bad end, expecting it to end as I suspect. It gives the world more realism for the person delving in to story.

Personally Her trying to convince me to come back even after this is over if I don’t get Death sentence or We’re back to being Extracted from my blood. Doesn’t make me want to come back. Looking at how former colleagues treated us and How they treat their former colleagues even if they get exposed by this and maybe More of them be being period like this makes me not want to come back. Makes me want to hate them. Corruption Or no corruption No one deserves to be tortured like that… So if I get the chance Leave I’m gonna leave. Because I feel like there’s something more in life. Then being a bloodbag and a tool.

Have 0 hope MC being let go. Blood being precious resource and how far everyone is willing to go to get it. Being let go or just out is a false promise.

@big_pickle when talking with maverick at his cell i encountered at least two times where we are refered to as unknown im pretty sure its because the code is messed up for some reason not tracking are gender/title of lady or lord.

And that picks the third option we fight death

You know I wanted to get into your head. Because you feel like your updates are so fast. Did you write this down In a notebook. Before you learn coding. Because it feels like you’re going so fast on how you want the story to be written. And I can’t wait to see how this plays out. Personally, I have 0 complaints, and I just like adding intrigue. On how the story will Made by you. So keep on working and improving and don’t let me or any other individual stop. You just don’t burn yourself out Take breaks We don’t want to cook pickle.

I can’t believe H sat there with a straight face and claimed to be able to sympathize about being used for the “greater good” with a literal victim of unspeakable torture, who has been entirely stripped of their freedom/humanity by their own adopted mother who kept them chained up in a cellar for years and then branded them with a slavery mark lmao. Nobles are wild.

Regardless of the circumstances they are both being used though, dad just sent them on a damn suicide mission while their Sis gets to chill at home, that’s what they sympathize with not the other things. Who knows if they even know about the other stuff, and even if they did it doesn’t change anything.

Ahh, took me a minute but I figured out why that is. Shouldn’t happen anymore!

Are they not just the best? :laughing:

It’s interesting you mention this. My issue comes with getting hit with the “game over” then having to restart. I have thought of maybe giving a bit of a description of what occurs during the “bad ending” then just sending you back to the choice. I decided against that for now because it feels a little gamey, but if that is something people would want to see. I could try adding it in.

The Desire and Avarice stats are both representations of the MC’s want for things. “A better life” is something that your character can want. But they’ll have to wait through all the cliffhangers until the end with you to see if they can get that or not :smiling_imp:.

My writing process is a mixture of having almost the entire story thought out in my head and put in an outline plus having plenty of time to write when I am not doing uni work. Said uni work is also majority writing so I am fairly practiced at writing quickly and effectively. As for coding, I’m trying my best to keep the game on the more simple side when it comes to stats tracked, so that helps. Choicescript is also fairly easy to get used to, and I feel like I’ve gotten used to writing in the code when I write my drafts. So there is less time coding and more time just writing.

I love your work.

I also have a love/hate relationship on your cliffhangers.

Curious to something. I have to go back to top, but relationships just mono, or poly also going to slip in? The CP flirts openly to the leash holder and the leashed one.

Glad you enjoy standing at the edge of the cliff too! :smiling_imp:

As I’ve written it, yes a poly would be possible between the two of them. I make no promises about any other characters because we haven’t really seen them interacting and I’m not 100% certain on how the relationships will play out. But I would say that yes I’ll find a way to include it between the two of them and the MC.

Writing Cliffhanger is like a masterful stroke! A kill that only happen once a millennia! It’s Delicious, like eating poison and surviving it!

But reading and facing it as a reader…is a slow death. :rofl:

Pickle does so, repeatedly well.

I dont mind repeatedly dying off cliffhangers over and over considering this story.

yeah he does, and rightfully earned himself the Achievement Unlocked Achievement: Evil Author Muahahaha Lol

While I enjoy his cliffhanger, I also feel the slow death in the worst way…because it feel like karma to me. (I wrote a lot of cliffhanger in my stories and killed my fans with ‘To be Continued…’. from the grave, their retribution come at last).
