The Lost Dragon blood

"You know your mother and I love you very much," Ector began, warmth filling every word, "and we consider you our son, even if we're not the same blood."

"I know, dad," Arthur beamed. The boy sat perched up on the leather chair across from him, looking so small as he dangled his feet off the edge. Arthur was only five summers old - and yet old enough for him to be told what Merlin deemed a necessary lie.

"He has powers, Lord Ector, and there's no way around that."

Sneak peek

This is as good as any an opportunity to befriend Galahad; a relaxed, cozy setting unlike the pavilion at the tournament, where emotions and adrenaline were running high. And with both Gawain and Gareth to help keep thing sailing, you may yet turn the tide of Galahad's heart.

In more than one way, you think as warmth pools in your chest.

"Yes," you reassure your brother, "Truth be told, I'm glad he'll be there too."

"Oh, are you still set on changing Galahad's mind?...

Weekly developer's blog

This week I've focused on the Patreon content for October, and finished the POV shift minigame. I just need to go over it to correct grammar and check for any bugs. Similarly, the Knight tier short story just needs a little bit more polishing before I release it into the wild!

For the mini game, I've first had to reread the original scene of Accolon's and Lancelot's duel, followed by Galahad confronting Mordred. While doing so I've made some adjustments to the demo, which I've sneakily ...

October short story featuring Mordred

Hey folks!

I'm here with a poll to vote on the character to be featured in this month's second short story (featuring Mordred!). For now, I've only included the romance options on the poll, and as such the short story will be romantic in nature. I'm open to other types of short stories - nonromantic - if you'd like to see that, of course, featuring other characters (such as Gareth, Accolon, etc).

If you'd like to see that, since there's quite a lot of characters, in order to make ...

The Champion Knight tier benefit poll result

As a result of the poll, the Champion Knight tier specific benefit from October on will be: A second monthly short story, but these ones would feature Mordred with a character, for example one of the ROs. The tricky thing is that it would be non-interactive, and Mordred's personality and their dynamic with their character can vary; so there'd be a poll to decide the character, but also what kind of Mordred to be featured personality-wise. (Note: the story would be written in 3 version, one fo...

I've started work on the next update. It's the big feast before the guests go home, and Gawain's in the mood for playing some board games, which Gareth happens to have aplenty! But Gawain's also totally fine with staying at the feast if the idea of playing with Gareth sounds like no fun for Mordred. Or well, maybe your Mordred doesn't want to spend time with Gawain at all! If you do go to Gareth's room to play board games, you'll be seeing more of Galahad too. There's a little bit of branchin...

Bugs/Typos fixed

Fixed the bugs/typos sent in and updated the demo. Thank you everyone! Note: You may need to refresh the page and relaunch the game.

To the person who suggested making a reference to Mordred's oblivious romantic feelings towards Gawain when giving him the bracelet: there actually should be a mention if you choose the bracelet option that has the two pink hearts, and it should read:  His eyes glimmer just as brightly in the sun. It stirs a strange fluttering feeling in your stom...

Regarding the update and saves

Someone reported encoutering a bug while playing the Arthur scene using old saves and I just wanted to let everyone know: please don't use old saves! Sorry for not mentioning in the initial post; I've fixed bugs and changed some variables since the last update, so using old saves can lead to game-breaking issues.

Demo Update

The demo has been updated!

What's new?

  • Spend time with Arthur, either to bond with him or learn more about your Pendragon powers
  • Hang out with Morgana, talk things out if you need to, and get spoiled with sweets
  • Meet up with Gawain
  • Some more general edits, such as small bug fixes and polished prose in earlier chapters

Enjoy! :)

Soooo, this week I've edited and fixed bugs in preparation for this month's update, and started writing for the next scenes. Initially, there was only the possibility of sneaking from the feast with Gareth, Gawain and Galahad, or alternatively staying on your own (and stumbling into a certain someone). But I've decided to add a route where Gawain stays behind with Mordred if they have a good relationship (and Mordred would rather not go to Gareth's chambers).

Champion Knight specific benefit poll

So! From October on there will be a different benefit specific for the Champion Knight tier, since I've only received a couple questions for the character QnA. I've decided to ask you what you'd like best. This concerns the Champion Knight tier and above, but I will post the poll for all patreons, in case the change might determine some people to reconsider their pledge. 

The options I have in mind are:

Option 1: A second monthly short story! There would also be a poll to see...

Next up to write will be the opportunity to spend time with Gareth, Gawain, Galahad and Gareth's dragon friend Terryn, playing the BoC version of DnD. Alternatively, if you don't want to spend time with ...

Sneak peek

Could this be Gawain confessing his feelings to you? You nod, showing that you're listening, and eagerly so.

Gawain produces a folded paper from beneath his yellow cape and smooths it open. He grips it with both hands and takes a long breath as if preparing to take a plunge into the sea. And as butterflies stir in your stomach, you realize he is about to take a leap.

"I wrote you a poem," he says.

The Sword in the Stone

The Castle loomed on the horizon, growing bigger as the carriage rode on. Soon, it'd be a giant staring down at Arthur from atop its high throne on the hill, bathed in the flaming light of the rising sun.

It was not his first time treading this road, not his first time laying his eyes on the seat of the crown. No, what was new was his perspective. For this time he did not arrive in the capital of Camelot as a squire but as its future king.

Anxiety had an ironclad grip on his insid...

September QnA

So, I have only received a couple questions for the QnA, so this will most likely be the first and last QnA. Which means I will be soon coming up with a poll to decide on what other benefit you'd rather see (one of the ideas for a second short story you'd get to vote on, but we'll see). The QnA was also pitched as an "in-character" one but the questions I received were lore and story related (which I don't mind at all, but I'd also answer these type of questions on tumblr, so I wanted the QnA...

I'm happy to say I've finished the Morgana scene and the alternative if you choose not to spend time with her (and that is Mordred hearing people gossip about them, something they're not a stranger to). There's still some code polishing that must be done, but I'm glad the writing is finished. Next up, you get to meet with Gawain if you have a high enough relationship, and there'll be some really sweet moments if you're pursuing his romance 👀

Sneak peek

You've never seen Morgana squirm. You've seen her flooded with regret after having her angry outbursts in front of you, or the pain that creases her face when you hurt or fight; you've see her furious aplenty, and it's an emotion that seems to almost befit her, as if her face has been specifically molded to give the most menacing of frowns. But you've never seen her squirm. She's the one to make others writhe under her gaze. Yet for just a fraction of a moment, unease descends upon her, seeps...

Hi everyone! So, this week I've continued working on a Morgana scene, and it's coming along well. Initially it wasn't supposed to be skippable, but I've decided that aside from a small necessary scene with her, Mordred can choose that they need some space after fighting with her, whether regarding Arthur or the prophecy, and opt out of hanging out with her at the fair. I'll be posting some sneak peeks later 👀 Otherwise, I've worked on some Patreon content.

Teeny-tiny update: typos and hey look new aesthetics!

I've updated the demo with some fixed typos but more excitingly, I added a new fancy medieval-ish font for the title, chapter titles and character names in the relationship page! Also, added a cursive font that will be used for letters (right now you can see a sample when Mordred tries to read the wedding invitation Morgana receives in chapter 1). Let me know what you think of them.
