noooo its ended, I cant believe this. me and xelef were destined to be together and now the image is ruined! I'm going to cry myself to sleep thinking about my beloved xelef
so on the game relationship page it says my relationship with X is unstable and he didn't send me a letter back or anything but according to the author's tumblr, I got the high relationship reunion scene and not the low relationship one?? are these different things and also how would i get a stable relationship with X then? I feel like i've been picking the right choices but...
fabulous writing, i love both the characters and the extensive world and lore of it all. one of the only novel type games where i've actually played multiple routes because it's just that engaging. i love our crown to bits <3
OMG, I literally created an account just so I could comment on this. I love it so much. Dara is literally 100% my type, why am I not seeing more of this type of character in visual novels :((
There isn't really a right or wrong at the moment...? It pretty much just depends on how you feel towards them, who you think you/r Crown would pick and how good they would be in those positions in your own opinion from the way you've seen them act or talk about certain matters.
My personal go-to:
Turn down the Law Officials and dismiss them on the spot. (You have to prioritize your people for this to appear) Lemme tell you, Crown is so badass, sheesh... Got me quaking in my boots too.
Appoint Lady Naza. (You have to gain her approval to do so) She might not be everyone's cup of tea so just base it off what you feel about her but also think about what the game is telling you about her at the meeting.
Appointing Noble Nûdem as Minister of Law. (Have to do the first option - I think... it would make sense...) Personally for my own game, I really liked how they were pretty upfront with their opinion and I liked this one scene where you could decide your opinion on something they say/do, thought it fit really well for my own Crowns so - personal choice as always.
But hey, this could potentially be a horrible combination and I will cry scream in my pillow if so... just the fun of this game though, try out whatever fits for your Crown's style. I'm not sure of all of the possible combos out there since again, these are my go-to's that I feel somewhat safe with right now lol.
I remember replaying the game and when i was running thru the underground tunnels no one saved and i got bad ending lol, I save almost every decision tho and replay the game again and again so i didn't mind
does anyone know how to not have an unsteady relationship with R in chapter 8 through 9? I did all the options, and it still says the same, and if you can possibly do 9 through the rest of the chapters only if you want.
omg i swear this is one of the only interactive fics were i am so completely absorbed into the world. i also cannot for the life of me decide which LI to do ( im gonna do all of them)
by the way, has anyone figured out how to priorities the public and gain lady Naza's approval ? (i have been replaying soooo many times yet i can never get those options)
tho i somehow killed 2 guards and 2 citizens this time (oops) - tried all options of security yet i still coudnt save them (what ? do i have NO security ? thats ridiculous)
I think that's because you toldthe nobles. You are warned that it is a sign of weakness meaning they likely got some assassins? I haven't ever played this way.
ASHTI AND DELAL... my beloveds. Your writing is impeccable. Truly I don't think I'll be able to compliment your skill in making this game enough; it was absolutely captivating and I've already played it like 4 times over. Each character's romance is thrilling and unique and I am so sincerely attached to everyone. can't wait for the next chapter!!
I'm not one to leave comments on games, it's just not something I do very often. Not many things really touch me. This one does. I love the characters, I love the amount of real feeling of decision I have. I'm currently romancing Rozerin and the absolutely adorable scenes make me want to go and see all of the other wonderful routes, honestly.
Another thing that I want to say feels very interesting. I've struggled alot with how to deal with identity, how to handle identity of other people, and how that all works in regards to just dealing with people. The way that your characters introduce themselves "I go by 's/he/they' feels both natural and flows well. It's something that has actually changed my perspective on identity, in a way, or at least changed my relationship with others' identites. I love your work, I hope you continue working on it, and I'm very, very happy to play through the game until it's finished.
I'll definitely be playing the other routes when I get time to do so. Your writing is touching, amazing, and lovely. Thank oyu, very much, for making this. I quite enjoy it.
I've been an avid reader for my entire life, and this, this is one of the best stories I've ever read. I adore the characters because they have such good chemistry and developed personalities.
One of my favorite parts of this story is how your choices affect your personality. I like how the character I play acts how I would.
That's such high praise 🥺 Tysm for the lovely words!! I'm glad you're enjoying the traits for the MC, writing the different personality variations is always fun for me haha
yeah I just saw someone else with this problem, sigh, this is what I get for wanting my own horse I guess 😔 Thank you though you've no idea how confused I was earlier!
I'm Just gonna say it, ya'll are making me feel real basic for just romancing X.
To the Author, I just gotta say that this game changed the trajectory of my life a little bit, in a good way. I had no idea what Interactive Fiction was beforehand, and for a good three months I was obsessed purely from the high I got off of this one. I got busy with shit after that, but I always planned to come back and I think I will soon, because its that good. You do great work, and I don't wanna pressure you to work on it, but what I will say is that this is magnificent. Something to be proud of. Few creative endeavors are, so just know you've got something special here.
Thank you, that's very kind of you to say!! 💖💖 And no need to feel basic for just romancing one love interest, we all have a favorite flavor of ice cream haha.
Though I would encourage trying out the other routes between updates even if you're not particularly interested in the romance! They each offer new background/worldbuilding to the setting and even new insights into the other LIs ✨
X romancers especially should try out A's route for reasons I will not spoil (and vice versa) 👀
honestly Rêzan is making me kick my feet twirl my hair giggle and everyhting since the moment he first APPEARS because AAAAA hes so precious and theres something rlly sweet and intimate since the start like the scene of the meeting&&& i had to take a break cuz it felt like reuniting with a lover not meeting smb for the first time. AND ALSO THE WAY HE SAYS "MY CROWN"????? I MIGHT BE DELULU FOR THINKING THERES smth intimate anout that too but "my crown"??? hellyeah im yours now baby////// also i love dara i wanna replay for his route bc i abandoned it after fcking up somewhere BUT Rêzan first ANYWAYS im loving it sososo much its amazing
edit: im doing R route and ive been picking the same things as before when i did D route but for whatever reason im apperantly closer with X and can ask him stuff i couldnt before??? is it a mistake or does X dont like D that much he'll like you less when you are wooing D than when you are wooing R
edit2: GRANNIES ALSO THOUGHT "MY CROWN" WAS SUS IM NOT ALONE AND IM LOVING EVERY MOMENT OF THIS
hi i just started playing the game but I was wondering if Rêzan was a different character before cause the only R character I know is Rozerîn and is referred to as she/her.
i wish there was a feature to like... quote and save parts of the text so youd be able to go through them later in a separate window because damn there are phrases id like to have engraved on my brain or inside of my eyes to not forget
Oh God I'm having thoughts of being very short and just chewing on any character that has long hair, example would be rezan, beautiful long hair that i would love to chew on.
Wait don't tell him I said that, actually don't tell him I secretly broke into his room at night and watched him sleep, I don't wanna be banned! ❤️ 😦
I won't lie, I was rly sad that tujo was not romanceable. Great game, I love it sm, and I absolutely adored getting to know not only the other characters, but also my own. It's beautiful.
It's both frustrating and exhilarating to have more than 4 copies of my progress saved just so I can appreciate the development in all four routes - just goes to show the writing is so amazing I'm not bored reading 4 times back-to-back :')
and Dara my beloved is killing me slowly the yearning argh
I'm loving this so far, started playing very recently, but I am as indecisive as ever, and I am stuck whether I should pick inner or outer magic... any thoughts/ opinions from people further ahead in the gameplay?
Also, more experienced people, is it possible to become close friends with a romantic interest? Again, very early in the game but I like the idea of being friends with X and want to make sure it's possible before I throw away a connection (got to a choice saying 'you notice she is attractive' or 'you want your personal space back'...)
I picked inner magic, just because it felt like what my Crown would be most drawn to. Beneath this comment is a screenshot detailing what inner and outer magic is about, in case you didn't know.
SPOILER
And yes, it is possible to become friends with a romantic interest whose specific route you didn't choose. (From Chapter 5 on, you will leave the Common Route and continue the story with a specific romantic interest in the main focus; keep that in mind.)
Regarding the choice concerning X that you mention: You don't throw away the connection if you choose not to find them attractive in that specific instant. But you should know, towards the end of Chapter 4 there might be options that you can't choose if you neglected your connection to X too much.
Can someone tell me where the kiss scene for R would be?? I did their route but I think I accidently skipped over it somehow and I dont really feel like going back and reading through it again😭
Ok so I read this and now I don't know what to do with my life!
Literally it was so inmersive. And I have to tell you this, the way you wrote that romantic scene with the MC and R, was pure GOLD. There was a part were the MC says they felt drunk and dizzy AND I FELT IT! I was feeling like that, it was so great, this is a gem and I'm anxiously waiting on the next chapter.
Normally when I play games like this (or any with multiple romanceable characters) I am easily able to pick one love interest immediately. This game was NOT the case!
All of the LIs were so complex and interesting that I accidently died in my first run-through simply because I couldn't choose between them! After an eaney- meany I started with R and now two days straight of playing I've played through every significant change I can think of!
I am enthralled, captivated, similar words etc. Amazing Job!
this game made my year and honestly all the lis were so fun as romance prospects and as friends lol <3 D especially, i just adore stoic characters except not to mc type romances (and height differences bonus??!) love love this game and the effort put into it, happy new year to you and i can't wait for what more you have to offer! <3
it's the patreon bonus stories, the author linked it in her reply, i highly recommend reading them for the character povs because they were absolutely immaculate 🤩
honestly didn't expect your reply so now i am literally so happy that you read my comment eeek <3 your writing is so amazing ofc the content was bound to be just as amazing too 😭💖
as a lesbian who plays w the attraction to women route, i love the horse rides with ashti and rozerin i have never been happier. happy new year author you are very blessed 😭!

noooo its ended, I cant believe this. me and xelef were destined to be together and now the image is ruined! I'm going to cry myself to sleep thinking about my beloved xelef
so on the game relationship page it says my relationship with X is unstable and he didn't send me a letter back or anything but according to the author's tumblr, I got the high relationship reunion scene and not the low relationship one?? are these different things and also how would i get a stable relationship with X then? I feel like i've been picking the right choices but...
Which option did you pick before the letter convo?
i asked for a promise--is that what's keeping my relationship unstable? i still don't understand how I got the high relationship reunion tho lol
Yep! Pick 'Let them go' and look at your relationships screen, see if that works :]
And probably because you picked the option that showed you cared abt X's feelings after they showed you their whole vulnerable self at that moment 🤭
I'm not able to save the game to my files...
I'm playing on Android with the DuckDuckGo Browser
Please Help :)
fabulous writing, i love both the characters and the extensive world and lore of it all. one of the only novel type games where i've actually played multiple routes because it's just that engaging. i love our crown to bits <3
slowburn lovers, A is your pick. TRUST.
OMG, I literally created an account just so I could comment on this. I love it so much. Dara is literally 100% my type, why am I not seeing more of this type of character in visual novels :((
Dara has clenched me by the soul. Please. I am like an addict at this point. I need more after every update.
does anyone know the right choice for what to do in court on D’s route? After he’s hurt
I cant find my save in files I hate myself :D
BUT ANYWAYS, I love this game sm you have beautiful writing :DD
Can Kham be trusted?
I’ve only had good things happen to me when trusting Kham, but Idk?? Go with ur gut, broski/broskette
Can anyone tell who to trust to appoint for the crowns Jurisdiction? I've been playing this game to long, and I don't want to make any mistakes.
There isn't really a right or wrong at the moment...? It pretty much just depends on how you feel towards them, who you think you/r Crown would pick and how good they would be in those positions in your own opinion from the way you've seen them act or talk about certain matters.
My personal go-to:
But hey, this could potentially be a horrible combination and I will cry scream in my pillow if so... just the fun of this game though, try out whatever fits for your Crown's style. I'm not sure of all of the possible combos out there since again, these are my go-to's that I feel somewhat safe with right now lol.
Thank you I'm really trying to get a good ending I will literally cry if I get a bad ending lol.
I remember replaying the game and when i was running thru the underground tunnels no one saved and i got bad ending lol, I save almost every decision tho and replay the game again and again so i didn't mind
It was kinda funny to see what would happen
does anyone know how to not have an unsteady relationship with R in chapter 8 through 9? I did all the options, and it still says the same, and if you can possibly do 9 through the rest of the chapters only if you want.
i struggled with this aswell, in the end i got there.
And let R seek truth about their family
Thank you!
omg i swear this is one of the only interactive fics were i am so completely absorbed into the world. i also cannot for the life of me decide which LI to do ( im gonna do all of them)
by the way, has anyone figured out how to priorities the public and gain lady Naza's approval ? (i have been replaying soooo many times yet i can never get those options)
According to a short search on the discord:
1. Tell everyone about the assassin
2. Yell "QUIET!"
3. Reject the officials and rebuke them
omg thank you for that (i finally got it!)
tho i somehow killed 2 guards and 2 citizens this time (oops) - tried all options of security yet i still coudnt save them (what ? do i have NO security ? thats ridiculous)
I think that's because you toldthe nobles. You are warned that it is a sign of weakness meaning they likely got some assassins? I haven't ever played this way.
I picked these options and always got the priorities for the public.
Spoilers...
Tell the public about the assassins. Don't tell the nobles or Kham.
Celebrate the coronation with everyone. I also did protection for both parade and ceremony.
Keep curtains drawn.
Pick first option about the keeper who doesn't come to coronation. Publicly condemning them.
I always get the option for Lady Naza. From what she says, she prefers a crown who is in charge and in my own words has a spine.

I was reading it with my android but I got a new iphone. How do I transfer the save files from android?
maybe you could send them to yourself through mail?
you are a life saver ❤️ thank you
I've been an avid reader for my entire life, and this, this is one of the best stories I've ever read. I adore the characters because they have such good chemistry and developed personalities.
One of my favorite parts of this story is how your choices affect your personality. I like how the character I play acts how I would.

That's such high praise 🥺 Tysm for the lovely words!! I'm glad you're enjoying the traits for the MC, writing the different personality variations is always fun for me haha
The writing and characters are great!! I didn't expect to be fond of the characters so quickly
Also, all the romanceable characters have such a good dynamic with you and each other.. *waggles eyebrows* (poly route poly route)
helpppp I'm already in a specific route yet their dynamic is still lovely
HELPPP these bros 😭😭
Nahh if Xelef pulls another stunt like this he gonna get thrown off the sky temple 😭
you need to have established a relationship with one or more of the ROs
yeah I just saw someone else with this problem, sigh, this is what I get for wanting my own horse I guess 😔 Thank you though you've no idea how confused I was earlier!

I was the same then I realized something
" Holy shit wait my character I made is a pacifist so inner magic LETS G- "
or
' Outer magic trying to be cold and mean! Except baby reizan, touch him you DIE ! "
Or listen to this
I forgot
azad my beloved
no no no you all have it wrong, its Xelef
Rêzan has me kicking my feet and twirling my hair
dara just admit you love me before i go insane please.

Trying to be gay with R in peace and people keep walking in and ruining it. I just wanna fluster my precious Kuzko look a like.
KUZKO LOOK ALIKE IS CRAZYYYYYY
Spoilers I think?
Can someone tell me where the kiss scene for R would be?? I did their route but I think I accidently skipped over it somehow and I dont really feel like going back and reading through it again😭
it's before they go into their pov in chapter 10 i believe, somewhere around that part. definitely after the court meeting tho, that's for sure
Thank youu I found it idk how I skipped over that
<3 glad to be of service :3
