Chapter 12 Sneak Peek - Zikar
Save him, and you'll get to scold him for being so annoyingly reckless.
Chapter 12 Sneak Peek - Zikar
The choice doesn't matter, only the outcome.
Chapter 12 Sneak Peek - Bridge
Regardless of the variation path you choose or whether or not you decide to let the bridge collapse, you will get this choice in all playthroughs. Just because you run to save Zikar, it doesn't mean you will save him.

Weekly Devlog: 21 April - 27 April 2025
Hello, lovely Patrons, and happy Freedom Day ✨Some fun background information for those of you not from South Africa. Freedom Day is celebrated when we, as a country, were able to participate in our first democratic elections at the end of Apartheid (pronounced apart-heyd). It's a historic day...
Chapter 12 Sneak Peek - Bridge Save
You never thought you'd see your awestruck fan from Solime again, did you?
Chapter 12 Sneak Peek - Divinity
Your divine blessings don't always have to be destructive...A notable difference between how divinity is tested compared to combat, leadership, and politics is that divinity is linked to the health variable. It's set up as a high-risk, high-reward tactic. You won't fail in the first batt...
Chapter 12 Sneak Peek
Should I have really written different feelings and different flavour text? Probably not, but it's too late, and no one will really notice the one paragraph difference but me. Next up, the divinity scene will be tackled. Hopefully, by late Thursday, early Friday, I'll be able to move on to t...

Weekly Devlog: 14 - 20 April 2025
Happy Easter Patrons 🐰 🐣 I've been fortunate enough to have a long weekend and the next two weekends are also filled with extra days off, so I've been happy about that 🎉Last week was really productive in terms of writing and I'll continue working and finishing off the politics v...
Chapter 12 Sneak Peek - Politics
Politics differs from leadership in that you're using your political savvy to undermine, manipulate and persuade your enemies rather than lead a battle. If given the choice, which would you do?
Chapter 12 Sneak Peek - Leadership Bridge Battle
Just a glimpse of how the leadership stat works - you won't be expected to fight. Like with the different variable options of each path, you get success, failure and mid-success outcomes based on your stat levels. Anything that's 60 and above is an automatic success. Anything that's 39 a...
What update would you prefer for Chapter 12's beta release?
Hey everyone! I’m deep into the main battle scenes of the game and making great progress on the combat path. I've completed one of the four variations, and should be done with the rest by the end of next week before I need to tackle the bridge collapse scenes.To keep things moving, I’d love ...
Chapter 12 Sneak Peek - The Bridge
Seriously, choose wisely. The battle is made up of three main parts, the beginning, the bridge and then the confrontation with Virion in the concluding battle. Eventually, all routes (bridge battle, ship battle, temple nursing and ambush) will lead to the bridge and you'll determine what happens...
Chapter 12 Sneak Peek - Bridge Battle
You've been dismounted from your mare and facing a soldier ready to kill you. How do you respond?I thought I'd share how much variation is actually behind these small choices by showing you how each path will play out. As you can see from below, the path I'm currently working on is the b...
Weekly Devlog: 7 - 13 April 2025

Chapter 12 Sneak Peek
Some final words (or silence) before the big battle.Sorry for the lack of context, unfortunately, it's all contained within a previous choice.
A Note on Pirates
A pirate has struck again and this time, this person targeted multiple IF authors which is how I came to realise the 12.1 version and all side stories were leaked. I've blocked the Patron who joined last month but there's always a chance they'll rejoin as a different person eventually.Be...
Chapter 12 Sneak Peek
What's a little foreshadowing before the big battle?
Chapter 12 Sneak Peek
Some last-minute tasks before the big battle. Eventually, I'll come back to add more choices based on feedback, but for now, this is what you'll get as a short choice and passage before the day of the battle.
Paths for Battle - Chapter 12
There are four different ways for the main character to proceed with the main battle scenes - they all eventually join back to the main storyline but for the most part, players will have different tests and expectations. Like with Chapter 10, the scenes will be branchy and have their variable tests ...
Chapter 12 Sneak Peek
Do you plead for mercy or wrath, or will you put off the decision until later?There is an invisible tracker for determining how high you've gotten your Cyre Support. Depending on earlier choices in Chapter 11 and then now in Chapter 12. It might seem like this is pointless in the grand scheme of...
Weekly Devlog: 31 March - 6 April 2025
Hello Patrons 💖Last week was a struggle to say the least. Writing has been like walking through a thick bog. I felt very drained creatively, mostly because it's been a while since I took a break from it but I also have been extremely busy in my IRL job which has slowly chipped away at my will...
Chapter 12 Sneak Peek
In another timeline, there'd be a sneaky, secret choice to join Virion here.
Chapter 12 Sneak Peek
Tensions are running high but will a speech really help?

Hello Patrons 💖 It's the last Sunday of the month and with it, another update has been uploaded. With the interlude scenes now completed, I'll finally be able to work on the battle scenes that have just been sitting around in my chapter outline, collecting dust.I sometimes wish I had more...
