Night II Complete + Night III Poll
Added 2025-05-31 03:05:36 +0000 UTCShort post tonight! Night II is officially complete on all routes. In hindsight, I should have done the Classic Route first because it's going to feel anticlimactic if you'd already played Dark Maiden and Fated Mates. It's just one additional scene and then the Night II dream.
However, as we go into Night III you're going to see the preludes really begin to diverge. In Classic Route, we'll have a more traditional Night III, with our MC getting her bearings as some of her memories return, learning more about darksingers & songs, and getting to know Serax better. It'll be a mix of the previous Night II & III content with some new stuff. In Fated Mates, we'll have a little of all of that mixed with a good deal of the MC trying to get a grip on the mate bond. Valdricht will graciously give her some space, approximately half an inch. In Dark Maiden, things get unhinged basically from the start and it's nothing like the original story.
In each of them, you'll also get your next dream wherein you choose your goddess. I know a lot of players loved Lirael's story, but don't sleep on Selyra. Your goddess will have a significant impact on your MC's backstory and may even offer you a unique gift. I'll repost the goddess lore with the next update.
I have allocated three days for writing each Night III route since they're quite long. I'm going to have you guys vote on which route you'd like to see updated first. I'll be starting on whichever is winning tomorrow morning when I start my 6am writing shift.
I'll also be back tomorrow afternoon with some Night II Wyransith translations. I'll be translating most of the Dark Maiden dialogue. I don't think I'll be doing a big, in-depth grammar breakdown of the language this weekend, but there will be plenty to extrapolate.

Yes, demure and provocative are the least impactful for Serax’s Classic dynamics.

2025-05-31 11:50:58 +0000 UTCOh, oh. Raising my hand, I have a question. Speaking of classic route, is demure/provocative the least important of the trait associations for Serax’s dynamics? Similar to defiant/devout for Valdricht 🤔 I figure it’s probably the least important of the 3 traits bc it doesn’t seem as impactful for the storyline but knowing you there might be some twists so idk 🤭 I ask though bc my mc will like 99.9% chance end up on the kindling path (yay), she’s too tender and intuitive (still so excited abt this trait) but when I saw the planned provocative trait the first image in my brain was literally that meme of that guy breaking his chains in the sunset LOL my girl’s finally free!!! I know demure is associated with kindling but she’s not demure and I can’t pretend like she is 😭
