Hai!!! Been just lurking here for awhile and honestly I have NOT been laying attention because I'm busy going "OOO pretty art..." to anything going on would u mind giving a basic rundown of the story for nightwatch if? Possible?? Its completely fine if not lol. Hope you have a good rest of your day/afternoon/night!!! :33
This is a challenge I’ll try- because nightwatch is very complex. like this would be the discription at the back of a book ok
The undertale multiverse, a realm built by creators, fans, and their collective ideas is dying. The massive blooming era of creation has dwindled to an age of dormancy. Aus are breaking down under the harsh weight of irrelevancy. The code that hold these stories together are irradiated and digested by Gods as they stray farther away from the warmth of the doodlesphere. Even that so called “warmth”, the epicentre of Creation itself; is no more than a up-kept graveyard for forgotten stories.
Living through this crisis are thousands of monsters and humans, now refugees from their decayed homes. They take refuge in a makeshift place- the omega timeline, and try to find a semblance of familiarity within it. Many have hopes that their creators will come back for them, so keeping themselves healthy and presentable for their eventual reunion is priority.
Medrune, a medical organization has taken up the case to make sure normalcy remains. Project psychology, a revolutionary injectable medicine called anti-corp is used to treat any unwanted changes citizens may have gone through in this unprecedented period. The source of this treatment is Psych, a monster- but legally medical equipment who just so happens to be unfortunately conscious. His body’s blood is harvested every few days to keep up the supply and extremely high demand.
His torture sustains the lives of thousands, he barely knows a life outside of this. Until a chain of weird rat filled events leads him to getting live camera access to a man who is on the other side of the coin, Atrophy. A man who has been feeding off the sadistic violence and labor of those living beneath him. But most importantly a man who claims he’s been in the same spot as Psych. His offer is to help him experience what it’s like on top of the food chain. For Psych to be a person for once, a brief taste of the hedonism Atrophy gets to indulge in everyday. The only minor fine print is to help him accelerate the death of the entire multiverse. Buttt that’s like.. like we don’t have to worry about that for a bit you know.
The issue is not everyone really wants to die in an accelerated heat death because two guys wanted to fuck around and do roleplay dress up time. Cultists of the Gods who control the natural processes of the multiverse try desperately to prevent this change. Dream the Knight of Hope, Ink the Encaustic Worshipper, Fresh the Demon of Abstraction- all try in their own ways to pull the strings of the plot in a desperate effort to avoid thousands of deaths. Though it’s not certain if their actions are fixing the situation or is just causing ripple effects throughout the lives of normal everyday people. Will the traditional order of the undertale multiverse win, or will the gay suicide cult somehow actually kill everyone. I know the answer but I won’t say it because that’s spoilers. Read nightwatch.
It’s gay, there’s cults, there’s torture wow what more else is there to want..
There’s my horrible attempt I tried my best, nightwatch will be out this spring or at latest June. So you’ll have actual thoroughly written content with many painstakingly drawn images. Or you can check out the archive which I desperately need to finish updating..
