Welcome to the Official Desert Sanctuary Blog. I'm @karmaspidr and this is where I will be posting everything relating to this AU.
Summary: In this AU, Clover decides to not give up his soul for the Monsters. Why should he? They plan to use its power to wage a war of extinction against humanity. He also still has a mission to complete. Together with his friends, they convert the Wild East into what will soon be known as The Sanctuary, and declare any human within their borders under their protection.

I'm Satisfied
I've been meaning to write this for a while, but I kept putting it off. Anyway, here it is.
When I first started this AU, it was out of frustration.
I was frustrated that Monsters never faced any consequence for murdering children, planning the extinction of humanity, and celebrating all of it. I was frustrated because of how easily Clover sacrificed his soul for a cause that would doom his people. I was frustrated because in all of the 'Clover Lives' AUs that I had seen, Clover just forgets about his mission.
Desert Sanctuary was meant to be an answer to these frustrations. A story that highlighted the tragedy of the Fallen Human and explored the consequences of their murder.
I believe that I have accomplished that goal.
I am proud and satisfied with where this story has gone, and I am ready to move on.
As many of you have probably noticed, updates for the Guidebook have slowed down at Textboxes and Memes on Reddit and Tumblr have all but stopped. This AU means a lot to me and always will, but I am ready to move on from it. I have countless stories that I wish to tell, not all of them about Undertale.
I will still be active on Tumblr, answering Asks and maybe making original posts as well.
I might even update the Guidebook if I feel it's necessary.
Thank you to everyone who took an interest in my AU, but for now, that will be all.
Goodbye, partners
I hope you find your own sanctuary where you feel safer, especially if it makes the people who hurt you mad.
