i found this yesterday on an AI (janitor to be specific) site (someone had a google doc of games/VNs etc they liked and this was on it) and I honestly HAVE NO REGRETS.
I got up to chapter 12 on my phone (in one night), haven't finished it. commenting on my laptop!! Evertides, thank you for this masterpiece >=3
(rylan is my bbg)
usually my phone battery drains and lasts from 8PM to around 9-10 rarely 11PM, but when I was playing this, it lasted until around 2-3AM (I'm going to blame you for my lack of sleep /j)
There's not necessarily a release schedule, but I tend to update every couple of months since it's just me working on it. As another user said, I do answer questions on my Tumblr and will also post monthly progress updates on there. Weekly updates can be found on Patreon.
I rly love the story, but i sometimes feel that the MC doesn't get to b vulnerable or cry despite their challenges throughout the story, it feels like its more stressed or not?
Hi! That's a completely fair point. What you're playing/reading right now is (roughly) a first draft, so this is definitely something I can revise in the future.
Do N and A's have branches too in chapter 11 or is there just meant to be the IAOS vs Vampire Clan paths?
Im new to this IF so im really glad there's already 12 chapters worth pf quality content out for me to read. I basically spent the last two days just going through all the posible choices and dialogue options. Every feels nicely paced. As far as all the interactions and personality types go its also quite realistic and very enjoyable to read. I can kinda already see where all the routes + main plot is heading and its making me very excited for future chapters.
You got it, it's just those two (the IAOS and vampire war paths), then the training room scene. Everyone gets their chance in that chapter, just not as equally as some previous ones.
Used the weekend to re-read from chapter 1 (10/10 - would recommend) since I needed the refresh, and - wow: Was it great to rediscover this story again. Loved chapter 12. I have a particular penchant for great dialogue-focused scenes, so an entire update, literally, focused on the dynamics of people sitting around talking (or not!) to each other, and the hidden/blatant of their motives -- Delish~ Adore your convo volleys; your use of repetition; how MC feels like their own layered and deeply interesting character. They're really falling apart, huh? 😂 Looking forward to seeing those limits....
Being in the elite and exclusive faction that is K lovers (Kaia for me), I was pleasantly surprised how much interaction we got with them in a place you'd think wouldn't afford a lot of intimate moments! Kudos for -- Realistically (cuz we know Fae Queen be side-eying) -- weaving those in. When K used my hunter's first name, no lie, I had an Entire visceral reaction. I was like: '....whoaaa....'; kinda expected MC to scream 'HOLY SH*T!!' haha Fav bit - beyond that - had to be talk about K sitting next to MC. The - 'why? why? YES - WHY' -- Screaaaming~ Such a good meal~ Very much worth the wait and I'm grateful you're so committed to keeping up with this. Here's hoping you enjoy every fruit of your labors! ❤️
You're definitely part of the elite club—K is such a great RO. Extremely underrated for some reason, but I'm glad that there's still people who go for them. I loved writing that scene very much, so I'm glad that you had fun reading it! Thank you so much for the lovely comment <3
I humbly request a ‘Grumpy Warlock’ badge for my commitment to the cause. (I’d also take Kaia in a ‘Foxy Grandma’ hat if you’re feeling generous. 😆)
My hot take: I think K is just a far more Mature romance than many are used to/want to deal with. It’s not the ‘high school, twitterpated, doki doki in spring’ kind of route — you have to Werk. And there’s really no guarantee (beyond you making K a LI, so there must be some chance lol) that your efforts will pay off. K straight up tells you to cut that nonsense out. (There’s also ‘immortal’ bit, but I like that sort of thing.) But I’m truly rapt by my MC and K’s dynamic; how they’re so freakin REAL. I can’t wait to see all those walls crumble; bit by bit. Incremental K affection is just that rewarding~ And I feel like they have to earn my MC too. Scene I mentioned also did a great job showing K has to contribute or might lose out as well. (dum dum Duuuum)
I don't think that's a hot take at all! You're definitely right in that it's more "mature", so to say. I think a lot of people are thrown off by the lack of 'happily ever after' because yes, eventually K will move on when the Hunter is dead and they're still alive. And I totally understand that hesitation. Also yes, you have to work for it way more than some of the other ROs, with Blane being the other option who's similar. But kudos to you! I'm glad that you like them so much :)
Finally got to play the update! loved it ofc (Blane my pookie wookie dookie bear)
Wish i was kidding but three minutes after the update dropped i was told my stepdad broke 4 ribs from a horse-riding accident (... You didnt cause it i hope)
My whole heart goes out to Blane…… Can’t imagine what they’ve been through that ended up with them being so repulsive to interact with the fae world :(
And I must say, this has a really interesting premise!! I love the characters (even if I only picked Rylan as my main romance option for now), they're all so unique, and the story itself is so good and always keeps me at the edge of my seat xD
I'm really intrigued to see how this goes, but for now, I'm really hoping to see more!!
I really like this if! The new update makes me crazy. I'm wondering how Rylan is so charming to me. By the way, I want to know when the next update will be.
I'm not a native English speaker, so I hope my translator works. :)
I love this so much! Second time having to go back through because I lost all my previous data annoyingly. In other news, I think I have the best possible contact name for Blane
I'm a little obsessed tbh, I love all the characters and how personlike they feel. Blane and Kian are my current interests but I see myself pursuing any of them.
I like how Blane doesn't stop being himself, his snark doesn't die down but he starts showing more consideration, the way you can tie back his current words to how he used to act, and how not everything is because he hates you guys but more on top of how he feels about the entire situation.
It's a level of depth I heavily enjoy.
I have theories of who our mysterious person is, and I'm so sad I cannot have a confirmation. I actually let out a noise when I got to the end of C11, and was so happy when I got to play C12.
Blane seems very surface-level initially, but there's a lot of depth to them and I'm very excited to explore that further. I'm happy you picked up on that. Thank you for playing !
Will there ever be a walkthrough posted? I was wondering mostly because I wanted to know if there was a romance route with Rylan, that didn't involve Kai lel
i've been able to get romance scenes with rylan without interacting much with K. i think for some things it is necessary, like when choosing if you get a text (i think i dont actually really remember) from either blane or rylan and K. but for the most part, if you just choose rylan for basically everything, you're bound to go along their romance route ദ്ദി˙ ᴗ ˙ ) (and i do suggesting choosing rylan for everything because the exchanges between them and the MC in chapter 12 is genuinely so gut-wrenching in a good way)

hey so send the doc maybe hehe!!!!! i say as i aim the gun to ur forehead /aff
gotta find it again first haha
YEAH OFC NWS take ur time buddy!!
have you found it yet? i am in desperate need of new recommendations xD
im not the creator, but ive found a doc filled w vns/ifs!
Al's Visual Novel and Interactive Fiction Reccomendations!! - WIP
what does it mean you found the game on artificial intelligence?
when you find the doc please send it to me as well!! :)
Even though I played the game starting with Blane's route, but Arion is my BABYYYYYYY
Wait, how's everyone talking about chap 12 where only chap 11 is available to me here??
wait, when i got into the announcement, it recalls what happens in chap 11 so i guess chap 12 is 11..??
Chapter 12 should be out... Maybe reload the tab if you haven't already done so? Hope you have fun with the awesome new chapter if it gets working! :D
If it's the same chapter, we meet the queen in it I guess it's labeled 11 in the game?
Hi! That is the same chapter but it should be labelled as Chapter 12, not 11. I'm not sure why it would be incorrect on your side though.
I've recently found this game and have had fun playing so far! Is there a release schedule for new chapters?
They make updates and answer questions on their tumblr!
(Atleast I'm pretty sure they do, I'm sure they will correct me if I'm wrong ;;)
There's not necessarily a release schedule, but I tend to update every couple of months since it's just me working on it. As another user said, I do answer questions on my Tumblr and will also post monthly progress updates on there. Weekly updates can be found on Patreon.
Thanks! I will save the game page and check back later.

Wish i was kidding but three minutes after the update dropped i was told my stepdad broke 4 ribs from a horse-riding accident (... You didnt cause it i hope)
Oh my God? I hope he's okay...
Yes he is thankfully! (Besides the ribs and a nasty ass bruise ofc)
My whole heart goes out to Blane…… Can’t imagine what they’ve been through that ended up with them being so repulsive to interact with the fae world :(
You'll find out soon :)
omg (patiently waits chapter 13 :3)
Just finished it! (As of Chapter 12)
And I must say, this has a really interesting premise!! I love the characters (even if I only picked Rylan as my main romance option for now), they're all so unique, and the story itself is so good and always keeps me at the edge of my seat xD
I'm really intrigued to see how this goes, but for now, I'm really hoping to see more!!

I'm not a native English speaker, so I hope my translator works. :)
I usually update every couple of months, since it's just me working on this. I have not even started writing Chapter 13 so it will be a bit of a wait.
I'll wait all the time!!!
I love this so much! Second time having to go back through because I lost all my previous data annoyingly. In other news, I think I have the best possible contact name for Blane
Yell Heah friend, I had them saved as "Shrekner" on my save. Giving loved ones goofy contacts is one of the best things in life
i call him bitch Rekner :3
I'm a little obsessed tbh, I love all the characters and how personlike they feel. Blane and Kian are my current interests but I see myself pursuing any of them.
