Morkai: grabs them by the back of the head and growls, "I'll show you a bad kitty."

Manerkol: grabs the retreating finger and brings it to his mouth, nipping.

Straasa: smiles innocently and curls his arms around the MC. Purring.

Daelynn: big puppy dog eyes and whines, "Nooo, I'm a good kitty. 🥺"

Sielthan: chuckles and runs their hands up the MC's arms. "I can be good, if you prefer. But you'll have to ask nicely."

Eledwen: swallows thickly, blushes, and looks away. She really likes that.

Rai: smiles sinfully, gets up close, and purrs into the MC's ear, "Do you like it?"

Mornie: grabs the whole hand and bites down on the MC's wrist.

Cy: chuckles darkly and grabs the MC by the thighs, tugging them close. "I'll be your kitty," they breathe against the MC's ear.

I tried to draw Sielthan from book 3 of The Soul Stone War because I am not remotely normal about them

Guys.

It's here. I can't believe it's actually here. The final game in the series. The culmination to it all. The good, the bad, the soul-wrenching, the breathtaking.

The final piece of the puzzle is now in active development—and the early access for it is live.

It feels surreal to reach this point after seven whole years. But it’s time. We’re ready. And it will be… inevitable.

A few notes first:

—Early access will be available in Twine format. COG regulations only allow one month of EA on Patreon, and that doesn’t align with my Patreon model, so we’re playing it safe and keeping everything in Twine.

—Only Manerkol's and Sielthan's romance routes are currently available in the EA demo. Once those routes are complete, I will start adding the rest.

—The character creator is rudimentary for now, but it will expand as development continues.

—Certain variations aren’t available in the demo yet. You cannot choose to have Eledwen barely conscious at the end of Book 3, or refuse the final fountain confrontation with Sielthan.

So, recap: Twine format. Manerkol and Sielthan routes. Character creator that will grow over time. Eledwen is functional, and the MC has learned the name of the Lost City. With all that said… it’s time to experience it for yourself. Time to give the series the farewell it deserves.

Get access to the demo through Patreon or Ko-Fi, the 16€ tier! Cheers ✨ *

Manerkol, when at ease, can be...kind of a dork in his own imperious, arrogant way.

They are each their own storm. They generate voltage far beyond anyone else around them, they reshape the landscape, they make the air crackle.

And they can stand in the MC's own storm without bending, without breaking. They invite the MC to burn brighter, reach the highest heights because they know that together they can amplify each other.

Their storms come in different flavors, however.

Sielthan thinks their storm is dying, so they're offering it to you that it may feed you once they're gone. They make it an offering to you and find rapture in being consumed.

Cy's storm is all-consuming. It wants to spread over the whole world--and it rides the line of wanting to consume you and be consumed by you.

Oooh, that's an interesting question 👀

Morkai would just slide in next to the MC, smirk, and ask, "Can I buy you a drink?" No frills, straight to the point, full-on intensity. He may or may not flex his muscles covertly or make sure his hair cascades over his shoulder just so.

Straasa is not really the "hit on a person the first time you see them" type. But if he's really interested, he'll walk over and make a casual but astute observation about the MC, the environment, or himself to get the conversation going.

Daelynn would be...pretty much the same way when she met the MC in the game? 😂 Just swagger over, get up close, push her chest up, eyes heated, and drawl something along the lines of, "Don't you look good enough to eat~"

Manerkol would be...arrogant. Like, he's already assuming you're into him. He's seen the covert glances you throw his way, he hears the way your heart skips a bit when he stalks closer. So he comes up to you with quiet, assured confidence, pins you with his gaze, and says, "Hello, pet."

Eledwen CANNOT hit on anyone 🤣 Like, she will physically combust. But she'd be kinda obvious in her interest--if you know what to look for. Glances when she thinks you're not looking, blushing all the way to her chest, her voice would get kinda high-pitched.

Sielthan would also be pretty confident. They'd stroll over, self-assured and graceful, and they'd immediately pinpoint the exact perfect thing to sat that makes the MC laugh. Already wearing a cheeky smirk, but their eyes are actually...pretty intense 😳

Rai would scope out the lay of the land first. Take every parameter into account--is the MC alone, what are they drinking, what mood do they seem to be in? Rai is always searching for that context. So if the MC looks flirty, they swoop in with smooth swagger. If the MC looks like they need a sympathetic ear, Rai presents thenself as such. Context.

Morkai: "Who car--I mean. Yeah. Sure. Probably. Whatever you want, precious."

Straasa: "I don't know about soulmates, but I'd choose you in any universe."

Daelynn: "Yes. 100%. We are fated. Meant to be. Our love is eternal and transcends time."

Μanerkol: "...I'm still astounded we're soulmates in this one."

Eledwen: "Does it really matter when we love each other as much as we do?"

Sielthan: "We weren't supposed to be in this one either, so to hell with what the universe wants."

Cy: "There is no universe where I'm letting you go. Every version of you belongs to me."

The MC leans in, pressing their forehead to Sielthan's, their gaze boring into Sielthan's whited out eyes as they whisper...
