You want the king's head for the death of your family, but what are you willing to do to achieve it? You are a mage, which means death in the kingdom of Valencino. Constantly having to be on guard for mage hunters and being able to trust few is making your goals of revenge quite difficult, however, you have finally found an opportunity for the revenge you so desire that you just can't refuse. A job at the palace under the employment of the queen, but could this opportunity be more trouble than it's worth?

The Queen

A caged bird, or a weapon? No one knows the true nature of the queen's circumstances, and few care to. Disingenuous, Willful, and Quick-Tempered, will you be among the few who gain Mira’s trust?

(Only romanceable by F/NB MC’s)

The Entertainer

Alethea is a musician for The Queen who is known to frequent the taverns of Valencino. Known for her charming smile and sweet-talking ways, none take the poor entertainer seriously, well, that is, except for you and Eliseo.

(Romanceable by any MC)

???

They are onto you.

(Romanceable by M/NB MC’s)

The Knight

They are always seen by the queen's side, never wavering in the commitment they’ve been sworn to. Yet some question who their loyalty is truly to, their house? The Queen? Valencino?

(Romanceable by any MC and Gender Selectable)

The Princess

Terrene, the Princess of Valencino, the disinherited heir of the throne and therefore one of your best possible bets at an ally, that is, if you are okay with compromising your morals, not one known for forgiveness, and with a quite ruthless streak, most fear the consequences of opposing her.

(Romanceable by any MC)

The Bestfriend

Your best friend, Eliseo, a fellow mage, you have had only each other in the past, and you would never question Eliseo's loyalty to you. He wants freedom and your revenge, yet you both share the same goal: the death of the King.

(Romanceable by any MC)

Surprise Character Drawings 2/7 (˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶) .ᐟ.ᐟ

Okay, so the surprise was character drawings, and I was originally going to release them all at the same time; however, there was a slight issue... I lost my drawing tablet again, and I can't make shit til I find it. Since I don't know how long that is going to take, here are the drawings of Terrene and Mira to tide y'all over! I will make an update post with the other drawings when I get the chance. Until then, enjoy y'all!!!!

Delayed Demo Release

Hey y’all so there is a slight issue with releasing the demo rn (which was technically supposed to be last week), the issue being I am genuinely at the worst place mentally that I have been in a long time. There are a lot of personal issues that I am dealing with right now, too many to list, and I am currently working full time plus going to med school so life is a lot rn. Another reason why the demo is delayed is because I got stuck in a blizzard for a week without my computer and therefore I could not work on the game. I ain’t gonna put a date for when the demo is gonna come out simply because at this point I can’t guarantee I’ll stick to it however here is a sneak peek just so y'all know it is being worked on and the game exists outside of my mind 🙂‍↕️

Hope y'all enjoyed that little sneak peek now I gotta be off before I miss my class, bye y'all <3

HOLY MOLY I know I've been gone for a hot minute, but DAMN!!!!!! wtf is going on with all this censorship shit? Genuinely, HOLY SHIT. Like I'm just trynna fucking scroll on Pinterest, why did I get a violation for saving a pinned post that was just song lyrics???? Like, was the song sexual, objectively yes, I mean it had hella innuendos in it, HOWEVER!!!! None of the lyrics quoted were explicit. Another pin got taken down because it was of a tattoo on a person's hip... like damn, God forbid I need some tattoo inspo. Then I get on here after a hottt minute because I had an update regarding forsworn, or maybe it was dmtnt (I forgot what it was, but when I remember, I'll try posting it again), and I see a bunch of shit regarding itch, steam, and Patreon. So in that regard, I will probably be posting the demo on a different site besides itch, which is kind of a bummer because I am most familiar with itch, but fuck it! Being self-sufficient is better anyway, at the end of the day. Honestly, that was all I had to say, and if you notice this post is less coherent than usual, no, you don't.

Facts on MCs deceased family members and what was their relationship like with MC ? I’m all about those familial ties 😎

Sure no problem!

Cecilia MC’s Mother was a mage whose abilities focused on altering light to create illusions, so illusionary magic. Cecilia was a cheerful woman she supported her kids no matter what and would let them get away with as much troublemaking as possible for she was a troublemaker herself. MC's relationship with her can vary later in the game for reasons.... however at the start of the game MC will be set to have a good relationship with her.

Amadeus MC’s Father was the past advisor of the late king. He was temporarily an advisor for the current king until he heard suspicions that Amadeus's wife Cecilia was a mage, which then caused him to order the death of MC’s family. Amadeus was a strict parental figure yet he held deep care for his family and ultimately risked everything to try and save them (MC relationship with him can vary depending on what temperament you choose to have as child MC in the flashback scenes, however no matter what present time MC at the start of the game will hold deep respect and care for their father). 

Aurelius MC’s older brother, he was 16 at the time of his death he was studying to be a healer before he died. He was not a mage. He had a very calm demeanor and would oftentimes come off as aloof he and MC had a good relationship and Aurelius is the one who was ultimately able to create the opening for MC to escape from the mage hunters.

Happy Holidays!

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it, I have a quick question for everyone before I get too far into my writing to change it.

Would you rather the characters POVs both MC and otherwise be written in first person or second

first person for both

second person for both

first person for mc, second person for others

second person for mc, first person for others

see results

Other (please send an ask about it if this is the case)
