My only confusion is why the king calls the knights and servants "dear" or "darling" I've made all my romance options he/him I am not sure if this is on purpose or there is a confusion due to the change in pronouns
It is very much on purpose. King Arthur uses terms of endearment very often in his speech, regardless of the person he is talking to. It is just part of his character.
I don't hate it, myself. I do hope that eventually he'll have a more personal endearment for our MC if we're romancing him...such as love or my love. <3
ohh i hadn't realized it before but goddd this 2nd character pov really does gets me right in the heart unghhhhh there's smth really immersive about seing others talking about the choices we make for our characters <3 I really appreciate the effort put into it <3333
I'm lucky to have stumbled upon this today!! This has absolutely exceptional writing so far and I've very much looking forward to getting onto the routes proper and having The Swag King Wingman for my Lesbian Knight Adventures
Slight problem I have is how both bath options on the wedding day in chapter 2 slashed my unassuming stat to 1 for whatever reason when it was previously three (which I can only assume is the current maximum points for said stat at the moment.) But other than that small and over-lookable pet peeve of a bug, I'm gratefully looking forward to further updates for this project! Followed and Bookmarked!!!
Wow, Saraah is literally such a great sib. It's nice that MC has someone to open up to at least. Also, I realized while playing that if MC is supposed to get married to Arthur, then wouldn't MC be having an affair if MC decides to romance someone else lol. I thought it would be a interesting if that's how things are going to turn out. The 2nd chapter isn't even completely out yet but I'm hooked already. I'm very curious as to how things will turn out. Looking forward to the next part already lol
I'm crying, this is so cool and I love how you write MC's trauma and the ways it affects them. I'm going with the haunted puppet trauma for my MC (basically them being cold and keeps their distance from people and could only follow orders because of horrible parents and environment) and the ways that the angst follows MC every time they think they could get a sense of normalcy?? OOF THAT HURT SO WELL. Not only that, but I gotta say I didn't expect how warm and affectionate the cast are not only to themselves but to other people including MC, while poor MC over here is agonizing over their situation, the cast is like "Look at this traumatized baby, look at them, nobody is stoping me from taking them right here right now--"
And the subtle (but quite obvious) political drama? AND THE WAY MC'S PAST COMES TO HAUNT THEM?? *chef's kiss* IT'S WONDERFUL ANGST POTENTIAL. Also like, it's pretty valid for both sides the fear they have for one another because of war and the lives that have been taken, it just hurts and sucks so much. But the moments were MC could be tender, although they themselves seem unaware how to be, is just so precious and just really drives home that MC needs a stable environment to heal because holy hell the amount of chest pains I got reading the choices and knowing this is what MC feels like is criminal (even though I was the one who chose this kind of MC; CHILD I WILL SMOTHER AND LOVE YOU). Also MC's family, I wonder if we'll see more of it, like not only just Saraah but also the other siblings. Wonder how they would treat this change of MC and the absolute whump potential of having the parents forcefully revert MC to who they "should" be.
I'm stupidly excited for when MC just breaks down for the people they've grown to care for. And because it's a common theme in most of the choices that MC never had a choice in their life, I wonder if they'll just dedicate their life in protecting and making Arthur's vision come true if it means they can not only atone for the actions they did, but also to be a part of that kind world he seems to be part of. I mean, for a battle mage like MC whose only seen war from when they were young, they must think Arthur's vision is like utopia and they'd do anything to help them.
Ohhh, I'm so heartbroken yet excited to see how the characters handle and help a confused lost MC whose told that they don't need to follow orders but doesn't know what to do, as they are paralyzed by their new autonomy. That would just be pain and it's glorious.
LOOKING FORWARD TO THE UPDATE! Keep up the good work and take care of yourself!!
Also reading through this IF with 10 hours of celtic music Adrian von Ziegler is really immersive, highly recommend to play with that as your background music!
Similar. I'm going for broken and abused puppy that wants love but is scared to trust. He comes off cold and intimidating, but that's just the mask he's developed to protect himself after how his family treated him and his forced conscription into military life.
The siblings dynamic is amazing, tear jerking. Its so beautiful seeing the MC fully trust someone its gonna make my heart burst. If something happens to Saraah I'll riot. I can't wait to see where you take this, but also no pressure take all the time you need.
Sincerely, This entered on "my favorite interactive games list"
I love Arthur dearly! He is so sweet and thoughtful and RESPECTABLE! Guess i will be his most loyal Shadow or else, Would gladly die for this man, lol.
My MC is slowly trusting on every person there cause everyone is winning their and mine heart, They're so full of life, and they interact with each other adorably, they're different and i love it.
Even if i don't romance anyone else in the game (perhaps l, because this is tempting) i will love be friends with everyone in this kingdom, they're trying they best with a foreign newcomer and is amazing, Your work here is simply wonderful and i adore you.
Anxiously expecting for new chapters, But no pressure okay? Do in your time, Rest well and have fun days to yourself too
This game is amazing! It is by far one of the best text-based games I've ever played. Both the customization and the writing in general are great. Can't wait for chapter two!
oh my god this is amazing! reading the description, i thought i was yniol was going to be my favorite, but i honestly love them all. i really appreciate the fact that they interact and have relationships to each other, and that their lives don't revolve around the MC. thank you so much for this, and i wait with baited breath for your next update!
gosh the "chapter one end" button hit me hard man :'') this is so good like, wow. Its real easy to get immersed in it and your character and I can't bloody WAIT to make my OC the king's HOUND, I mean how cool is that?!
thank you so much for sharing this with us and I hope you update soon!
Absolutely obsessed with this!! The characterization of everyone is so clear and personal, and I truly feel like I'm in this world. Genuinely cannot wait to see what the future holds- The main character in particular has so much depth already. Hoping you have a good year, thank you for your work so far!
Will you release a downloadable windows version? This VN/game looks very promissing! Loving all that I've read and can't wait to see more of Yniol, he sounds like a sweet gentle giant of a bear!

I agree. It's nice at times to get a view into the mind of the other characters. Makes them more fleshed out and less flat.
i fukin love 2nd charachter pov and i fukin love this
Very good I love it so much , What I really live is the POV of the character about your character

Is there any way Arthur can be gender selectable, all the other ROs are and it feels weird the one who you're forced to be with isn't.
