Before chapter 4 released I saved in somewhere in chapter 3 and when I went to play it THERE WAS AN OPTION TO BREAK THEIR RELATIONSHIP 😭 I was lost so I restarted it. (yes they are secretly dating ig)
Thats the only way to prevent them to already be in a relationship, but from my understanding the romantic tension will still be there howewer since Lancelot cares about MC opinion, if you openly show your disapproval then he wont pursue a relationship.
And even if they do get together if MC didn't burn Farah room, you can break them up.
I can't continue whenever I choose the ❤️ options, I had to choose one of the two top options without the ❤️, but idk if it's because I'm on mobile though
Could you tell me in which part though haha, there are many options with 💗 If you mean after the river part, I did fix it yesterday so do check if it works now!
As someone with a twin, I couldn’t help but choke on some parts. I feel that in the absence of her, I would look in the mirror and pretend I was her.
This MC is quite adaptable and resilient to not just stab the emperor’s son before his eyes.
You vehemently shake your head, rejecting his explanation. “I will never understand. I will never move forward.” Luceris laughs, but the sound grates on your nerves. “I suppose we do have something in common…”
The moment they see you, the crowd falls silent and begins to murmur in confusion. Someone shouts out that you have red eyes, and all hell breaks loose. “Red eyes,” one person says, “He is a demon.”
“You need to confront the harsh reality of your situation and embrace it,” he asserts, each word landing like a cold truth. His figure looms closer, a shadow in the moonlit night. “You can’t reverse the sands of time; there’s no going back, and solitude is your only companion now. This is your fate,” he declares.
Luceris’ chuckle resonates, his amused eyes crinkling as anger simmers within you. “Do you really believe you’ll be able to escape?” he taunts, advancing toward you. “But even if you could, where would you go? Do you have a home left, Aza?” A pause, his head tilting. “Do you think you can go back to the way things were before? To the happy family you had? To the warm, safe palace that was once your home?” Closer now, his voice drops. “This isn’t one of your little bedtime stories, child.”
This makes me feel like he he thinks that the MC and Him are the same, kind of pathetic. He seems to be a little crazy, like a madman whose god fell and he lost his sole purpose.
It’s like he’s trying to convince himself though he’s addressing the little child.
Was not expecting him to let being slapped slide just like that! His knight is really affectionate, which feels like the knight harbours something forbidden, was he secretly celebrating the emperor’s wife’s death, and then being disgusted with himself afterwards?
The mage is very obediant. She follows the foreigner like a little cub, trailing behind like a trail of colerful lights surrounding a fairy. No matter how cold the fairy is, the lights aren’t afraid to radiate with eager warmth. Her nature is really adorable, but a little saddening.
It makes one wonder why. So far, it seems it’s because of the MC’s miserable existence, and her tendency to babble on even when no one reply’s.
The little prince is really cute, he wants to impress his pseudo stepmother? does he feel like he has to make up for his father’s mistakes? what a sunshine. I feel that he will get hurt badly in the endgame.
Such a person, he likes to be unburdened but gets involved into everything. Like a flower raised carefully by his father. It’s easy for him to get dyed in the colours of the world.
The guard, makes one feel that a big and radiant lion is hiding it’s claws in order to accompany the young cubs. Hunter’s demeaner seems respectful and composed, but in reality this one likes nothing more than complete omnipotence and watching the colourful lights of the mundane world unfurl.
How nice. It gives off a really handsome feeling. Like cheering for a really cool athlete .
The big princess is also like a big lion. Parading regally through the crowd, not yet mature but also not too silly.
She wants to grasp everything and obtain the most radiant of radiance. A little too hasty, but very Firey. It feels like she calculates everything. Very sly, I kind of feel that she is a little untrustworthy. She doesn’t care about much accept to satisfy her curiosity.
The knight reminds me of a certain relative of mine, so I have a prejudiced dislike for him. He is cold and composed, but very reliable and stable, warm to his close ones and a little biased towards outsiders, especially when the biasedness stems from someone who he admires dearly.
His sense of moral is quite strong, I find such characters to be charming, albeit enviable. Such resolve is truly admirable.
This is very nicely written, articles mostly aim to invoke emotions. This article has done that very well.
Despite disagreeing with most characters, the reader can’t help but feel empathic, feeling a little attached to each person.
It’s not easy to understand their motives, but as the story progresses it can be like a thinly veiled truth. Understanding but not quite, extremely delicate and well-woven.
And the two brothers were killed because of their close relation to the eldest daughter, right? the emperor’s meticulousness is quite chilling.
I noticed that some traits tend to change according to our choices, and don’t seem to be set in stone. I don’t know if the hobbies matter very much, but the mechanisms are definitely exciting. Will the level of mastery matter very much? Very eager!!
I am a little confused on how to unlock the third achievement. I am aware that the writer distastes spoilers, so I have been trying for the past hour, but just can’t seem to unlock that one.
Does the manipulative characteristic affect aanything in the story? Like negative or positive? I feel like it has effected the game somehow.
I anticipated some scenes to be extremely cliche from their initial introductions, but they turned out to be not. I was face slapped a lot during the playthrough. Thinking that ‘Oh, this character is so cannon fodder’ and then feeling someone slap me invisibly and being like ‘Haha what a cool guy!’
The most crazy character so far is the emperor. He’s really sick and pitiful. Some of his scenes had me like this
Your article is very entertaining, and I look forward to witness it’s end. Not much a little reader can do, but I send you virtual appreciation.
This is indeed one of the very dedicated works I have read here, not comparing, but it’s on par with ‘When Twilight Strikes’. The changes and butterfly effects are very subtle.
Cheering for your success! Sending virtual flowers 🌸🌸
The reason for the second quote is very interesting. The MC was worshipped as a revered prince for the ‘beautiful red eyes’ taken as a blessing. But in this foreign place, what once prompted countless praise and showers of affection, now becomes a source for disgust and jeers.
Personally, it also happened to me that the writing gave me several surprises and that the characters felt like a life of their own very apart from the MC life, I've also played "When Twilight Strikes" (A very good one too) and I can say that making decisions and how it affects the plot also made me remember the game, recommended.
Answering discreetly your question of how to get the third achievement that I think you mean is "No fire for this place" as it says in the picture, I can only tell you that to get it you must not get the second achievement= "Ashes to ashes" (You can not get both achievements because they are related to the New Year event and it is like a different option's to follow).
Pdsta: I believe that the manipulative characteristic is influencing in some way, more in the view of the other character's and their perspective about MC actions (It is in perspective whether in a good or bad way).
idk if this will mean something later but the toy we picked at the beginning also makes me think that the twin is still alive somehow cus remember when they split he took the toy w him IT HAS TO MEAN SOMETHING
yeah!! i feel the same way abt it!! i am hoping that the twin is still alive and we find them or something, when we get to go back to our home century! ( cuz i may or may not got alittle sentimental when it got to our birthday and the mc saw their twin wishing them happy birthday. not. joking. someone was cutting onions right in my face at that moment :'3 )
Just imagine Helios but older! The whole reason MC has a panic attack in ch3 after seeing Helios covered in blood is because Helios looks too much like his father. 🥲 Although now Luceris has shorter hair! Thank you for your kind words. 💗
If im not mistaken the romance barely start so far in the demo so if you see only a few romantic interactions with him then it's not you doing something wrong, its supposed to be that way! His route is kinda slow burn (not the slowest tho) so it may get a while to get there.
Ohh okay! Tysm cause I was really upset that this might've been another RO that I would be too dumb to romance since Helios was the first that caught my eye :D
i am a sucker for vincent i can't wait for when he stops hating me so i can kiss him already ;-; also i've been replaying the game and thinking about whether our sister did it or not and it would be pretty cool (and heartbreaking for mc) if that depended on what mc thought about it (like if mc thinks sister did it then she didn't, but if mc thinks she's innocent then she's not) all my best wishes to the author i love this game sm!!!
I want vincent to be kind of like a very teasey kind of a personality once we get close with him also i absolutley lovee the way vincent said "You have pretty eyes"
yesss like he was fun in the festival thing where he kinda drops his hating-mc attitude, i so need more of that 🙏🙏 ALSO i always chose the other option so i only found the pretty eyes comment few playthroughs ago and i was screaming. alsothe way he's with his sibling??
anyways i cannot wait for more vincent content lol
This is my only problem with this project. It is objectively very good, but I can't help but play it as a supremely bitter MC who hates everyone around him
Same. So, I make 2 MC lol. I just can't go happy dandy meanwhile our entire family had been masacred. Damn, Alistor was a child. I wouldn't let that slip.
i've never cried more in my life oh my god. the prologue and ch.1 actually had me violently + silently sobbing into my hands at 1 am. your writing is genuinely insane and i cannot wait for more chapters!! also call me delusional but alistair is 100% alive and well somewhere vesphire in my head. nobody can convice me otherwise or i will just have to die.
I genuinely believe he is still alive. Or maybe just maybe want to lol. I'm hoping maybe they come back as a scarred /masked presence that you will run into eventually. Like they haven't contact you because they're afraid it might harm you to reach out considering your position. Or perhaps they are planning our rescue.
Hey, real quick - I had an idea. Instead of saying “codexes”, you could say “codices”. They’re both correct, but I think the latter rolls off the tongue better. But it’s just a little thing, and it’s just my personal preference, so, no biggie if the idea is ignored. Just thought I’d bring it up.
Hey! I know about that, I just used codexes because it would be more easily understood by people like "oh plural of codex so this is where they are" while codices could've gotten a more "?" type of response lol. Thank you for the suggestion, I appreciate it.
Man, I was looking through the comments, and 2/3s of them are so wholesome. The remaining 1/3 are obsessed with razing the kingdom to the ground in revenge. Exactly what I expected, before even playing the game.
well I've been up wayyy to late at night playing this and now will think about this forever so thank you so much for making this, its so wonderful already I can't wait for more!
Wonderful story, painful perhaps, maybe enraging. My hope is that the mc is somehow the reincarnation of the old god of fire or at least has that kind of power. Since each revenge/retaliation seems to only escalate in terms of damage. Hopefully, we will be able to burn the kingdom to the ground. You lose one, then take everything from mc. Your kingdom turned to ashes is only fair. Maybe not the most productive choice of actions and there were also a few nice folks. But it would be so satisfying. Fingers crossed for a path like that.
Oh I think this will be the first game where I won't have an RO, I want everyone to die 😈 so if we have an ending to get revenge muahahaha 😈,that's going to be my choice 😈😈
Love this IF ❤️. Despite everything, I still like Luceris, I feel like he genuinely cares at least in my playthrough as a MC's that are kind and doesn't hold any resentment at. I like how you can make him uncomfortable by calling him your husband. Helios is also really sweet for putting effort.
I may have. I feel like Luceris is just a victim, though what he did is still wrong. I just want to know the whole truth, to be honest. I also have a feeling that the twin is alive, or at least with the MC, which is more than enough for me.

RHAHAHQNSJZSONSKZL Z THIS IS AMAZING IM SO EXCIFED FLR CHAMTER FIVEEEEEEEE
IM SCREAMING THIS IS SO GOODDDD
Thank you! 🥹🫶
Luceris and Lancelot- in a relationship? Wha- I need to reset again 😭😭
Also IT'S SO DAMN GOOD!
WHATT HOWW (asking for a friend)
Before chapter 4 released I saved in somewhere in chapter 3 and when I went to play it THERE WAS AN OPTION TO BREAK THEIR RELATIONSHIP 😭 I was lost so I restarted it. (yes they are secretly dating ig)
If im not mistaken, Luceris and Lancelot will get into a relationship if the MC doesn't burn Farah room. If you chose that, then they wont.
Oh...wow I didn't knew that thanks!
Seriously? Thats it? Thats the only way to prevent it!?! Wtf
Thats the only way to prevent them to already be in a relationship, but from my understanding the romantic tension will still be there howewer since Lancelot cares about MC opinion, if you openly show your disapproval then he wont pursue a relationship.
And even if they do get together if MC didn't burn Farah room, you can break them up.
No way chapter update the day I randomly decide to check over the game :D
Ahhhhhh js finished the chapter!! soo good and what a cliff hanger! Cant wait for more!!! >:33
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it. 💗
I think there's a bug whenever I choose any options with a ❤️ at Hunter's story
Would you be able to tell me where you think the bugs are? Thank you.
I can't continue whenever I choose the ❤️ options, I had to choose one of the two top options without the ❤️, but idk if it's because I'm on mobile though
Could you tell me in which part though haha, there are many options with 💗 If you mean after the river part, I did fix it yesterday so do check if it works now!
Yeah that's the part I was talking about! Thanks for fixing it 😊
Im literally in love with Eadred and I have no idea why. He is my favorite honestly.
Where is the update?! I need it!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
This was actually so good I’m so excited for the next chapter.
I kept seeing this and thinking it was throne of ashes lol, I just finished the prologue and I legit cried, so far it’s so cool!
I LOVE THE OPTIONS FOR CALM LUCERIS SLANDER LMAO

yeah!! i feel the same way abt it!! i am hoping that the twin is still alive and we find them or something, when we get to go back to our home century! ( cuz i may or may not got alittle sentimental when it got to our birthday and the mc saw their twin wishing them happy birthday. not. joking. someone was cutting onions right in my face at that moment :'3 )

If im not mistaken the romance barely start so far in the demo so if you see only a few romantic interactions with him then it's not you doing something wrong, its supposed to be that way! His route is kinda slow burn (not the slowest tho) so it may get a while to get there.
Ohh okay! Tysm cause I was really upset that this might've been another RO that I would be too dumb to romance since Helios was the first that caught my eye :D
I'm still waiting for the game to be updated, I want my revenge PLEASE
I can't wait for this game to be finished so I can romance Helios for the sole reason of revenge.
i am a sucker for vincent i can't wait for when he stops hating me so i can kiss him already ;-; also i've been replaying the game and thinking about whether our sister did it or not and it would be pretty cool (and heartbreaking for mc) if that depended on what mc thought about it (like if mc thinks sister did it then she didn't, but if mc thinks she's innocent then she's not) all my best wishes to the author i love this game sm!!!

I dont want romance, I want revenge😭
This is my only problem with this project. It is objectively very good, but I can't help but play it as a supremely bitter MC who hates everyone around him
You know what, same lol.
real. like this mc is too nice. i think I would rather die than living one roof with murder of my family
Same. So, I make 2 MC lol. I just can't go happy dandy meanwhile our entire family had been masacred. Damn, Alistor was a child. I wouldn't let that slip.
What the hell I've never cried over something like this before. How did you do this. What witchcraft. I haven't cried in years huh
Waiting for the chapter where I can kiss helios🙏🙏🙏
SAMEE though I want to ask how do you even get closer to him?😭
i've never cried more in my life oh my god. the prologue and ch.1 actually had me violently + silently sobbing into my hands at 1 am. your writing is genuinely insane and i cannot wait for more chapters!! also call me delusional but alistair is 100% alive and well somewhere vesphire in my head. nobody can convice me otherwise or i will just have to die.

OMG THE ART OF THE RO's ARE SO PRETTY AHHHHH.
Naww revenge first, then second playthrough romance xD
Wonderful story, painful perhaps, maybe enraging. My hope is that the mc is somehow the reincarnation of the old god of fire or at least has that kind of power.

real
Owowiww!! I love ittttttttttt!!! And I guess that there's a new chapter every year or somethig like that?- Well, anyway—
I'm looking forward next chapterrr I love the storyyy
Love this IF ❤️. Despite everything, I still like Luceris, I feel like he genuinely cares at least in my playthrough as a MC's that are kind and doesn't hold any resentment at. I like how you can make him uncomfortable by calling him your husband. Helios is also really sweet for putting effort.
I think you might just have daddy issues or something
I may have. I feel like Luceris is just a victim, though what he did is still wrong. I just want to know the whole truth, to be honest. I also have a feeling that the twin is alive, or at least with the MC, which is more than enough for me.
