Blog dedicated to my Arthurian WIP.

Arthurian Tale: Camelot

Friendship, Slice of Life, Romance.

Inspired by: Arthurian Fantasy and Welsh Mythology.

Sent to Camelot as a pawn for peace, you must decide whether to trust the young ruler your father calls a pretender, survive life at a divided court, and choose where your heart truly lies. Marry for duty, for love, for power—or not at all.

Hone your swordsmanship and archery, or rely on diplomacy, deception, and wisdom to survive court life. Use these skills to gain insights, earn respect and influence important figures.

Play as yourself, or create a new identity.

Agree to an arranged marriage, or refuse and find love for yourself.

Betray Camelot, or become a steadfast ally.

Form alliances, friendships or have an affair.

Choose from five romance options. Two men, two women and one flippable. (One poly route)

Demo Word Count: 153'000

Full Game: 235'000+ words, Chapter 4 complete, 5 in progress.

It's them, My Blorbos from the Vulgate (not to be confused with Bleoberis from the Vulgate, a different guy). One brother has anger issues, and the other would rather die than admit he's ever had a negative emotion in his life! Very normal of them! I'm sure their childhood trauma had nothing to do with it and it's fine. :)

The Vulgate truly is a chronicle of Saraide repeatedly trying to keep all of the Lady of the Lake's adopted children alive.

Tristan and Isolde babies…

Do you think it’d be funny if Robin Hood and King Arthur ran concurrently?

I promise that reading Medieval literature is not as hard as it seems.

It's fine to start with a modern retelling or a tv show or even browsing online. But to really understand it, it's ideal to experience it for yourself.

A great place to start would be The Wedding of Sir Gawain and Dame Ragnelle translated into modern English. It's a short poem that's very straight forward and digestible. A handful of the famous characters appear but not too many. You don't need any prior knowledge.

It's not as scary a it seems I promise!

if you’re not careful when reading arthurian legend you’ll end up thinking about guys with names like Bleoberis

Demo Update Coming soon...

The first demo update since 2023 will be coming soon to Arthurian Tale: Camelot.

Still only 3 chapters in the public demo, but should be cleaner with lots of small improvments. Im getting closer towards starting a private beta of everything I've written so far.

Tmespans are hard to predict as always but I getting excited about getting closer to the finish line. I think I will try and finish most of Chapter 5 before I open up a private beta of the unseen chapters.

(Beyond the demo, Chapter 4 is complete, Chapter 5 is ongoing and Chapter 6 is planned.)

Thinking about THE GREEN KNIGHT recently

[wandrenowlereacts]

In the 14th century poem "The Parliament of the Three Ages", Sir Gawain manages to survive the battle of Camlann and becomes the one that throws Excalibur to the lake. That's a rather interesting twist, seeing as it is traditionally Sir Bedivere the one who throws the sword away (as well as being one of the survivors).

What an evening to play a deadly game with the faery knight who is definitely not immortal. Here's hoping this time next year I'll be able to actually post this crazy project somewhere XD
