Play on the side of evil in this interactive novel · By
Sometimes I need a break from writing but I still want to work on the game in some way so I don't lose my motivation. Making game related art when I have no new portraits to draw is a good compromise!
I am currently trying to stay on track for a pre-Christmas update, so this is a bribe to beg for forgiveness if I miss it a little!
2025 Christmas celebratory picture (1 year anniversary) 
The full image for the thumbnail, trying out a different style of shading. I rather liked it but it took some work.
thurin really likes mc's father,protect his sprout 🥰🥰.we can TOTALLY understand why Thurin isn't frodi's fan lol,and btw,im a bit curious about why vaine hate frodi that bad?is frodi like tease him very much or some reason!(if it's spoiled plz ignore my question lol(actually i had a lot of questions hope u don't mind if i ask too much haha)

Hi Zack!! Merry Christmas to you too! Thank you for Kelka, Jen already sent it to me a little while ago, but now everyone gets to see how pretty you made Kel! I just love that cute little blush you've given them and I giggled when I saw it even went to their ears~ Thank you~!! Also, I didn't mean to Vaine so hard to draw! I actually have difficulty with him sometimes as well, so I needed to adjust him a little. I'll update his art on the game page after the next update, but I'll post his body art (new normal clothes) below for now.
Feel free to open a new thread and ask any and all questions! I am happy to answer although I may not answer if I think it will spoil a plot point. Excuse the upcoming block of text. AHEM-!
I do plan on making a social media account for the game at some point, but I'm trying to decide between tumblr or Bluesky. I'm too lazy to look after both 😅 I'm leaning towards Bluesky because I don't know anyone on Tumblr, but I'm putting more thought into it.
I will risk some small spoilers to answer your other questions and observations: Thurin never had a family until Tananthia bought him from a slaver and freed him (don't think she was being nice, she always has a reason). Thurin, being a svartal, would never be claimed by his family so he stuck with Tanan because he had nothing and no one else. Racism towards the svartal kind is very severe, especially from other alfar. When Thurin was assigned a Stem, Sharla was only the second person who saw him as a person, so he learned the the Stem could be his family and he was happy for a long time. Because of his injuries and his first Stem being destroyed, Thurin was moved back to work with Tananthia but became depressed because he couldn't do the work he enjoyed most. When he was at his worst, he met the MC and saw them as a curiosity, and later came to platonically love from afar. I put a small part of this in the "Thurin sees the protagonist living their life after turning down his work offer." mini story included in the game, unlocked after finishing the prologue! 😊
Now Vaine and Frodi are a bit more complicated which you will learn in time if you pursue their routes. There isn't one reason, but lots all added together, some are plot reasons which I won't share, but I can tell you the other ones! In it's simplest form, they're jealous of each other mostly.
Vaine was raised in a witch cult that worshipped Esca, he ran away because he wanted to be a normal/average person. He failed. Badly. Yet he was able to survive with the help of his cousin Marrow (a side character to come), until recruitment. He wants to be a "people person" but doesn't know how because he was raised with spirits, mostly the barghests, who he befriended by making deals with them and also *spoiler*
Frodi was raised in a way that Vaine would consider to be "average", as Frodi wasn't raised to make living sacrifices to a death god, was able to grow up and make friends, go out and find a safe, boring job, and has a family that loves him. That Frodi has this or had these opportunities but didn't take advantage fills Vaine with resentment. Oh and it irritates Vaine that people would assume he would be "evil" but not necessarily Frodi on first sight, when Frodi is actually Evil with a capital E and doesn't really hide it.
He and Frodi were the first Thorns in this Stem and Vaine wanted to make friends, and they were. But Frodi has a nasty habit of screwing people over (not a spoiler as you'll see a very evil side to Frodi in one bad end in the next update if your affection and lust are high enough - Frodi hurts those he likes the most 😉). This hurt Vaine a lot as Frodi was his first and only living friend who wasn't Marrow. How Frodi screwed Vaine over is a secret for now. But Vaine now doesn't trust people, when he once wanted to try and he blames Frodi for it.
On Frodi's part, well, it's both just as complicated and less. The less part is that Frodi is a sadist in every sense of the word. Unlike everyone else in the Stem who has trauma (yes, even the Captain is the way she is because of it - can see in the short stories), Frodi has none. Zilch. Nada. He is just a pure sadistic narcissist who wants to hurt others or be the target of their adoration or obsession. Both feed his fragile ego.
The just as complicated part is that Frodi is jealous of Vaine's capability as a witch. Frodi is also a witch, but was not raised in a coven as Vaine was. He never learned how to interact with spirits in a way that wouldn't be dangerous to him. Frodi is very scared of the spirits and magic in general, although he'll try to hide it. That Vaine isn't scared is very humiliating to Frodi. That anyone could do or be something better than Frodi, even if it isn't something he wants to be good in, will infuriate Frodi to no end.
Frodi still actually likes Vaine a little (as I said, he enjoys hurting those he likes the most) and is just teasing Vaine to twist in the knife for his own enjoyment, knowing it reminds Vaine of when they were friends. While they aren't friends anymore, Frodi still sees Vaine as a toy.
Another thing that irks Frodi is how Vaine is very close with his cousin Marrow, yet Frodi, for all the love his mothers and brother give him, doesn't really feel much fondness for his own family. They're more an annoyance to him, an obligation who he can't seem to get rid of. He's jealous that Vaine has someone who will always back him up, but Frodi refuses to see that his own family would help him if he needed it. Another point for the family is that while Vaine sees Marrows strengths, he is not threatened by it and is reassured that together they can do anything. Whereas Frodi sees his elder brother as a threat, that Feane could be better looking, more well liked, stronger, faster, more successful in general. It gnaws at him everyday.
Everything else beyond that is a spoiler, but I hope it helps you understand them more!
You will see side character Feane (below) at some point near the end of chapter 1. Look forward to it, as Feane is like an upgraded and NICE Frodi *swoon*
(Don't ever say that to Frodi, btw, as he will be furious and react badly and you will get a bad end. Or Feane might...)
(psst-! Feane is a possible LI, I'm still figuring out how to make it work with a side character, but look at him-! Can't leave that man untouched! And he'll be the only non-yandere LI if I can figure this out!)
Phew, that was a lot! I hope it was interesting for you!
edit 1: corrected spelling
edit 2: fixed my incorrect "corrections" -_-''
edit 3: god bloody damn it, how do I screw up my own primary language so badly??? corrected typos
Hi Jade! Sorry for the late reply. I've been a bit busy recently. Ty for like my fan art awww!I didn't expect you to write such a delicious and perfect long message. Oh my goodness! Not to mention the new character designs. Vaine, you look so handsome and your waist is so slim 😻😻(cough cough). And Frodi's handsome and perfect brother yayy? ！ (lol don't be angry and kill me frodi, I love you too, this little thing that's both self-deprecating and self-obsessed yet conceited) I've been watching these carefully all weekend, hehehe. I'm having such a great time. Thank you for letting me know more in advance ahhhhh! Here are some of my thoughts!!
First of all, it turns out that Thurin was born a slave. I guess that's why he values thorns and stems so much 🥺🥺. What surprised me more was that his love for the MC wasn't familial but Platonic?? ！ This really surprised me. I'm sorry, Thurin wwww, you're a good person, but I see you as a father.😔😔😔 This also explains why Sarla told us not to get too close to Thurin to prevent him from developing some, um, infatuation. Although she also warned us not to get too close to the two more mischievous people lol. Then there's the history between Vaine and Frodi. Wow, I didn't know they were once friends. Although it's Frodi's fault that it ended up this way, I was also surprised that Frodi is a witch. He looks like a rogue, you know XD. The conflict between them seems very complicated. They don't seem like the type to make up easily. Frodi, you sadistic jerk lol, you'll have no friends if you keep this up. Kelka, be careful! (But can they really be considered friends? Hmm). Anyway, so far we know about their grudges, jealousy, and Frodi's affection for Vaine. Frodi's affection is both a blessing and a curse. Actually, I really want to take advantage of his weakness to bully him hard. I wonder if the MC will have such an opportunity hehehe. Accept the whipping until you're convinced, brat XD. If he dares to stab us, I'll retaliate hard! 😏
Then Vaine unilaterally closed off his emotions. We might need to put in some effort to pull him out of his shell again wwww. Poor guy, I envy his relationship with his cousin. He helped Vaine escape from the cult wwww. In contrast, Frodi is even more despicable and pitiful.╮( •́ω•̀ )╭ his family loves him but he feels it's not enough. Sigh, he also hates his brother(˙꒫˙`), but I think Feane will love him and be kind to him. I wonder if Frodi will pretend to love his family or not even bother? He doesn't have any trauma, but he's most likely to become someone else's trauma🤣. This bad guy hahaha. Finally, I'm looking forward to Feane's appearance! More LI, thank you hehehe. The more lovers, the more impressive yay. 😋😋
I have a few questions at last. If you don't want to answer or it involves the plot, you don't have to answer!
Among all of lis, who is the most jealous?
Is anyone a virgin? (Sorry, I'm not a pervert. If you feel uncomfortable, you don't have to answer! I'm sorry!)
Do lis have any hobbies? Reading? Gardening? (Abusing others doesn't count)
How tall and how old is each of ?
To Kelka: Hey, sweetie! How strong is your tail? Can it pull someone down instantly? Are your ears and tail very sensitive? If someone touches your horns, will you feel it?🥰🥰
To Vaine: Besides the people you met here, do you have any other acquaintances? Friends or something like that? (Sorry if this question hurts you.) Why did you choose a mace as your weapon? I thought as a witch you would use some magic or something. What do you think of your cousin? How does he contact you now? Has anyone ever complimented you on your looks? If not, I want to say you are very handsome lol (whistling*). His little pet is also very cute ww, like little dogs and cats (Sorry, little one, I forgot your name ww). I hope you and your pet will like me too 🥰
Frodi: Have you ever tried not to abuse anyone for at least a year? XD. Didn't the captain discover your true nature when she was teaching you? Hmm. Who was the first person you bullied in your life? How did you bully him? Does bullying others give you a thrill? 🤔🤔Has anyone stayed away from you after knowing your true self? Or do you not care at all? Anyway, I still want to see you come at me with all you've got. I accept your challenge 😈
Magwvy: What are your thoughts on killing? Or do you just think it's part of the job? I heard you once tried to kill Frodi and Vaine but spared Kelka. Why was that?
That's about it! Thank you for your reply, I'm so grateful! 🥰🥰🥰You put a lot of effort into it. If my questions offended you, I apologize! I like your characters. They are all very interesting. I didn't mean to insult anyone!!have a nice day!
Hello again, Zack! No problem, thank you as always for your interest in the game! I'm always so flattered! Maybe I should just pick BlueSky over Tumblr already so I can get all your questions directly, haha. I'll sort it out sometime this month.
Forgive the text block, I'm just trying to answer your points.
I possibly chose my words poorly in my last reply, but Thurin's love is now familial but it grew from platonic love. It was never romantic in any fashion, more like a best friend he never knew he wanted and that feeling grew overprotective in nature and evolved into the familial kind of love that he wished he had and is determined to give to you. He's still infatuated with you but now it's as a father who wants his child to overachieve and get everything they ever want. He really does want you to thrive, and it makes him happy to see you successful. Sharla however is very conflicted with you. Up until the moment you joined, she was an only sprout and now she has a sibling she never wanted lol
Anyway, I will update the main characters to have biographies in the People of Interest page in the codex, but that won't be for this update or I for sure won't make my deadline. The difficulty will be in making the biographies without revealing plot spoilers.
Magic in this world is more subtle than in other fantasy. Witches are the connection between the spirits and the living and are born as such. I based the magic on traditional English magic from ye olden times, where witches apparently formed packs with spirits with rituals to make enchantments and curses and whatnot. So in this world, the spirit gives the energy and the witch forms it. It is rare to find spirits with enough strength to grant big instant spells (think D&D fireball). So you will see Vaine performing witchcraft on his route on occasion, but it won't be high magic like you see in other fantasy worlds. He would secretly love to do that though.
Witches are more sensitive to the spirits than other people, so they are most at risk of being possessed, which is why many witches such as Frodi and Sharla don't like to interact with spirits or have anything to do with magic. Vaine is unusual in that he isn't afraid of spirits, but that's because he was raised to understand them better than people when he grew up in the cult, which is rare for witches as it is a random chance, rather than a genetic trait passed down.
Alfars or other creatures with a natural inborn magic can make big, instant spells like a fireball, but it requires a lot of energy. Of the alfar, Ljosalfar are better than Dokkalfar at magic and Svartal have the least skill in magic, so Moloch is actually quite a skilled spellcaster compared to Tananthia, who only really uses her magic to strengthen herself as she's more of a soldier, and Thurin is quite useless.
To learn more about spirits and magic, I have included several pages in the codex! Maybe I need to rewrite them to make it clearer, however.
Alright, onto your questions! I could answer them, but I think it would be more fun for the characters to do it. Captain, gather the Thorns!
Tananthia: Right, this pervert wants to know who's a virgin. Answer!
Frodi: (gestures to his body) Darlin', look at me, how could I be a virgin when I look like this~?
Kelka: Yeah, Frodi's a total whore and has lots of lovers. It's funny that they say they love your confidence rather than your looks. They always say your brother is better looking.
Frodi: (strained smile 💢) Who says that? Maybe they need a reminding why I'm the best choice.
Kelka: Hehe, not telling~ I'm not one either, by the way! But that relationship is long over, it didn't end well...
Frodi: Yeah, because you-
Kelka: SHUT YOUR FILTHY MOUTH. (sweetly) Mc, it doesn't matter any more, that person changed and it wasn't for the best. But you're wonderful and I'll cherish you forever and ever if you'd let me~ ❤️
Magwyn: (sad) No, but's it's complicated and I don't like talking about it.
Vaine: (scrunches his face at the memory) I'd honestly prefer if I were. Sex is disgusting. Why'd I try it twice? Why do people make those weird expressions? And why so much sweat? (shudders)
Tananthia: Is anyone in the building a virgin?
(Thurin walks by and everyone stares)
Thurin: ...What are you looking at me for? What's going on?
Tananthia: (Judgemental smirk 😏) ...Hm, yes, I expected that.
Thurin: Expected what? What's going on?? I don't like being left out, it makes me feel lonely!😭
Tananthia: Hobbies, what do you like to do?
Magwyn: (happy) I play the violin! The Captain got me one as a birthd-
Tananthia: EXCEPT THAT. NEVER MENTION IT AGAIN.
Magwyn: Oh, um, I guess I'm kind of boring... I like to spend time with my friend, Byrn, outside of the Blackthorns, and learning new combat styles. Bryn and I spar a lot and then go watch blacksmiths make weapons and armour. I enjoy baking but I burn everything I make. One day I'll make something without turning it into charcoal! Oh, and the Captain gives me information about-
Tananthia: No spoilers! Next person, go!
Kelka: I like collecting stuff! Especially- (Tananthia glares) ...But I can't go into spoiler territory, so that's all I'll say about that... Uh, what else?? I like breaking into houses to see inside! I don't take anything, I just like looking around and try to guess what the person is like.
Frodi: Sometimes they eat things from the pantries.
Kelka: Not often!! Oooo, what else... I like following you and watching you sleep I hang around with Maggie to listen to her playing, I really like her music! Finally, I hang out in the city in the busiest parts to people watch or make new friends. I miss my clan a lot, so I like looking for other devic in particular. Beyond that, most of the time I hang out with Frodi when he goes out to play. He takes me to taverns with music so we go dancing a lot. It sucks when he leaves me to go stay over someone's house, but I'm used to it now. I don't like walking home alone afterwards though, so Maggie often comes to find me if she knows I've been out.
Frodi: Oh. I didn't know you felt that way. I'll try to stop doing that so much when we're together. Anyway, it should be obvious, but I'm invited to all the parties. And why wouldn't I be? I go to the gambling clubs too. Anywhere people gather, I can find something fun to do. I used to drink a lot, and I guess I still do when I get a chance. It's kinda thrilling to let loose, you know? I like singing, but I prefer to dance. Hm, sex is also fun. Generally, my rule is the more the merrier~ I'll let you choose how I apply that to my life~ As you can tell, I like group activities in general~ Lastly, when I'm hungover, I stay in bed and read. (everyone stares) What?
Tananthia: You have never purchased a book in all the years you've been here.
Frodi: I get Kel to unlock Vaine's door so I can take his. He has good taste in books.
Vaine: (quietly furious because he thought he'd somehow been losing them) I enjoy reading, but I might stop now I know where my books are going. I paint, although I'm not good at it. The Captain gave me a garden... (she glares but he ignores it) ...I grow plants to make incense. I'm sensitive to smells, so I make a lot. Oh, and I collect bones to form into sculptures. I go around the city to make friends with the spirits, but I only get along with the shades, fortunately there's a lot in Wyldern. Um, lastly, I'm a priest of Esca, so I even though I left the cult, I still worship him. It's not a hobby but just as important to me.
Tananthia: And the other thing. Or do I need to "retrain" you?
Vaine: (defensive) There is no other thing. (Captain takes a step closer and he shuffles his feet, not looking at anyone) ...I like eating sweet things. (feels the Captain getting angry) All right! I love sweets! They're my favourite thing, most of my wages are spent in confectionary shops around the city! Stop judging me!
Tananthia: Height and age? Easy, I can tell you that. From smallest to tallest: Kelka, then Frodi and Magwyn who are about the same height, Vaine, myself, Thurin, Moloch, and finally Sharla. Ages: Kelka: 26, Sharla: 28, Frodi: 29, Magwyn: 30, Vaine: 31, Thurin: 83, and Moloch is ancient, he's almost 300. Myself? That's none of your damn business.
Thurin: (shouts from afar) She's almost as old as Moloch! That's what you get for making fun of me earlier!
Tananthia: (seething with rage) You will regret that.
Tananthia: Jealously? Hmm, I have my suspicions I shall share with you. Now why am I telling you the answer and not asking the Thorns? They will deny it, but I know them well. Here you are. Make of it what you will, but do not mistake the 4th place as meaning that they aren't jealous.
| Friendship | Lusting Relationship | Loving Relationship | |
| 1st | Vaine | Kelka | Frodi |
| 2nd | Kelka | Magwyn | Kelka |
| 3rd | Magwyn | Vaine | Magwyn |
| 4th | Frodi | Frodi | Vaine |
Tananthia: Right, now you've each been given individual questions, so I'm leaving. I have work to do, Molly to bully and I must also punish Thurin at some point today.
Meanwhile:
Sharla: Papa, come hide in my office before the Captain finds you.
Thurin: Thank you, sprout, I love you and I will never love you any less now we have MC.
Elsewhere:
Moloch: ...I feel an ill omen coming my way.
Kelka: My tail? Do you like it? I wish I did... Devic tail lengths vary but are usually about as long as our body. My tail is considered stubby and ugly because it isn't as long as others. It's around 3 ft, when most are between 4 and 5. But if you like it then I'm sure I can too! (blushes) Hehe, MC likes my tail~ Maybe I'm not an ugly devic?? But can humans/gigants like devickind? I like MC, so maybe? Ehehe, I admitted I like MC! (squeal)
I can't really pull people down with it, but I can use my tail to unbalance someone or sweep their feet out from underneath! It's difficult though, so I don't do it much. I mostly use my tail to hold things, so it's like an extra hand! ...Hmm, it's not really that sensitive, I actually cut it a lot but don't really notice until Maggie chases me with a bandage. Thanks, Maggie, I love you! (goes to hug Magwyn) You want to play with my horns? (sad droop) Aww, I wish I could feel that... My-Are my ears sensitive-? (nervous excitement) Um, hehe, well, that's- yes? They're really ticklish but I won't mind if you want to touch them. You can touch me wherever you want, I think you're so cute with the most beautiful eyes and I want us to be so close, closer than anyone. It's special for devic to touch ears, I think humans call it being married, so please do and be mine.
Vaine: Hmm, I'm well acquainted with.(embarrassed) the confectionary store owners... Beyond that, I don't really know many people. I do meet others when I spend time with Marrow or perform my priestly duties, but I don't get close. So... no friends. Well, no living friends besides Marrow, that is. Marrow is wonderful, I hope you'll like her. We grew up in the cult and escaped together, so she's the person I trust most in the world. I tell her everything, even about you. I wish I could spend more time with her, but the Blackthorns take most of my time, so we write to one another instead, but I try to make time to see her at least twice a month, more if I can. As a witch, I do use magic. Magic is just very impractical in this world, although I wish it was as fantastical as in the stories I read - I think it would be interesting to be an ice mage. Unfortunately, that is not how it works. I often make amulets or charms and I'm an expert in runecraft. If you ever want to hex someone, I can do so for you. I can also forcibly gather spirits with rituals and make them cast spells that way against their will, but I dislike that method. Spirits are good to me, so I try to be good to them in return.
My mace? I suppose it's more a tactical choice rather than a preference. If you pick a blade, you need to be more precise and have some degree of finesse, especially if you're fighting against an armoured enemy. I don't need to worry about that with a mace, I can just crush my enemies. As long as I'm strong enough to wield it, that's enough to get the others to stop nagging me about training more. Do you like Aslaug? She has been with me since I was a child. Well, the original, living Aslaug was. The spirit that occupies the body now was also around then but came and went as they pleased. I was so upset when Aslaug died that my spirit friend entered the body and took her name, so I would never be alone. She is my source of joy these days. I would be isolated without her.
Aslaug: Master, you're ignoring something.
Vaine: (embarrassed) No, I'm not.
Aslaug: Hehe, master used to get many compliments about being pretty when he was younger. He had longer hair and looked like a girl! Being called handsome is new. Most people get creeped out because of his eyes and avoid him. He is a shy idiot, so be patient.
Vaine: I am not! Hmph! And I know I'm handsome, I just don't care. (Aslaug, am I really? What do I do when I'm called handsome? And is a slim waist important? I'm so confused. People are weird. I don't care about that, so why do they?)
Aslaug: (You should say thank you but you messed that up. The waist was also a compliment, but you got confused because your an idiot.)
Vaine: ... Thank you. Go away. (Did I do well, Aslaug?)
Aslaug: (No.)
Vaine: ((lovingly) - I hate you)
Aslaug: ((lovingly) - I hate you too)
Magwyn: Killing is... I don't like doing it, but I understand that I need to do it. It's strange, when I was a mercenary and then a gladiator, I didn't care as much. I guess it's because the situation is different. As a mercenary, I was not just paid to kill, but when I did it was because I could pick and choose my contracts, so I was able to stay within my own moral boundary. As a gladiator, it also wasn't so bad because we had signed up knowing we could die. It might have been more senseless, but we were willing to risk it. As a Thorn, it's different. I don't pick my contracts and I just have to hope that my actions will be for a greater good. The Captain actually helps me a lot with this, even though it annoys her. When she needs to kill, she gives me the most "evil" of them all, and tells me why they need to die. I really have no choice but to trust her and hope she's not lying to me. I try to do it quickly and painlessly regardless. Just because the person I'm killing might be cruel doesn't mean I need to be. What's the other question...? Why did I try to kill Frodi and Vaine- Oh. That.
(Vaine and Frodi glare)
Frodi: We would also like to know.
Kelka: (smug) She didn't try to kill me because I'm special and we're friends.
Magwyn: (ashamed) I'M SO SORRY!!!! It wasn't intentional. I was recruited in a very dark stage in my life and men scared me. They still do sometimes, even though I know I'm stronger than the average, untrained man! I was scared that Vaine or Frodi would be one of the men who could overpower me, so I panicked! I'm not so scared of them now though although I do still get nervous.
Vaine: (Should we be insulted?)
Frodi: (You know, I'm honestly not sure?)
Magwyn: Kelka was too new to train me, and Vaine is the most experienced, so I was assigned to him. He's grumpy but a patient mentor - and he surprisingly never took it personally that I tried to kill him with his own mace. No one really knew how hard I found it to be around Vaine and Frodi until I broke down and... you know... Thurin was considerate as well, sending Sharla to help me when I was in trouble. Thurin was always kind to me and understood that I needed space, so I never got a chance to attack him. I'm glad I didn't, I really like Thurin and he wouldn't have been able to defend himself well. And Sharla helps me too, she's a safe space for me when I'm feeling overwhelmed. I hope you'll be able to get along. It would be nice if we could all spend time together.
Frodi: Saving the best until last, I see~ Okay, let's see here... Did the Captain discover my true nature? ...Ahaha, what a question! What is there to discover?! (💢😊)
Tananthia: (poking her head back in the room and glares) I did. It's a useful trait if he can control it, so it pleased me. Although he misbehaves a lot, so perhaps I need to replace him...
Frodi: ...She maybe saw a little. (more glares) OKAY. She knows. She saw how it can be useful and didn't try to train it out of me. We came to an understanding. Next! ...Not abuse anyone for a year?? You make me sound like a monster! You know I can control myself, right? Why does everyone bully me? Next question! "Does bullying others give me a thrill?" What is up with these questions? Do you get a thrill? Because you're being so mean to me when I've been so good to you. 😭 I'm bored of these ques- Oooooh~ hehe, don't push me, I love a challenge too, you know. And what's that you said earlier? My weaknesses? I have no weakness, but try your best to beat me anyway, darlin', I enjoy some good powerplay~ But just so you know, there's worse things than stabbing or getting a whipping and if you're not careful, I'll show you just how bad I can be~ 😘 Well that was fun, but I think it's time to stop this.
Kelka: Hehe, you barely answered anything.
Frodi: Don't worry about it~😉
Kelka: I'll help you, MC! Because I like you so much and I'll do anything for you and this way maybe you'll dislike Frodi and pay more attention to me. Ahem! Frodi first pushed a boy down steep stairs when he was teeny-tiny, knowing it was dangerous and he was hoping for the worst to happen. He liked the boy but his crush liked Feane instead. I don't know what happened to him. Did he die?
Frodi: Pfft. I wish. Not enough stairs. 😒
Kelka: And final question... If you ever see Frodi at his worst, it's one of two things. Either he knows he'll never see you again and you're on the receiving end in which case you'll get the full experience, or you're like me and working with him and seeing just bits and pieces of it. I'm always on the latter side and know how to avoid the worst parts, so I don't mind so much, but Frodi's never had to worry about people avoiding him. The people who warns others about Frodi don't really him him, so others just think his reputation is exaggerated, especially when Frodi does try to make an effort to be nice. He'll continue to be nice unless you anger him in some way, but he's chill about a lot of things, so most people never see the worst side of him. I think that's everything now. Thank you for the questions, I've never been in love but I think I am with you I hope you have a good day!
Oh Jade, hello again!!! Thank you so much for all those words! （NEARLY 15000 WORDS OMG！！！！）I love them so much that I've been thinking about them a lot recently. Thank you for your thoughtful responses and everything! I love the way the characters answer the questions themselves awwww, IM SO IN LOVE WITH THEM!!! Your serious responses have made me become more serious too without realizing it wwww,so i want to reply more and more(with love and interested)!!.My reply might be a bit late though! I'm sorry,i didn't mean to! I've been quite busy recently.Because I have too many and too complicated things to say, and I want to take it seriously, so I need time to organize it. As soon as I have some free time, I'll reply right away (I'm still organizing my thoughts lol). By the way, apart from revealing the plot, is there any other question you won't answer? Like NSFW (I won't ask this here, don't worry).kisskiss😽😽😽
Hi again, Zack! It is no trouble at all to wait for your questions, as I'm just happy to get them at all so please take your time. It's always a pleasure to see that someone is enjoying the game, the world or the characters. If you want to ask the characters anything again, I have set up a new thread. 😊 Haha, sorry about the length of my last answer, I just thought it would be fun for the characters to answer and that took longer than I expected it to. (Sorry the Captain called you a pervert, I believe you when you say you're not, but she's cynical 😅)
Because of a small, not too graphic scene in a Frodi specific bad end that happens if he likes you enough (affection and lust), I will soon need to bump up the game's age rating to adult. Honestly, that guy... Anyway, due to this, I do not mind if you post NSFW questions although I would ask you to wait until the update when there's hopefully no chance of minors seeing it. Although I may shut down a NSFW question for Frodi if I can't find a way to answer it without him escalating it, as I don't want to be the middle person as Frodi and players sext each other! But I will try to answer anything that's not plot related or spoilers for the character routes.
okie!ic lol,it's ok i don't mind being called pervert(??lol)ty captain🤤(???cough*) then i will ask u questions in another thread!haha,no need worry about too much answers,it's DEFINITELY PLEASURE to read yay,and i wanna post a stupid little comic but always failed dam* that's all ,ty again!
