Thank you! I like to respond to comments because I'm very grateful to everyone who takes the time to leave one. :) But writing-wise I'm actually on a bit of a hiatus. I've burnt myself out and need to recover and it'll take time, unfortunately.
That being said, I purposefully didn't list the ROs because (for this story, at least) I wanted people to discover them as they play, and choose who to romance in a more organic and immersive way, if that makes sense. I did plan to make a list of main characters (ROs and others) with short descriptions on my tumblr blog, but it'll take time to put together so I've put that on the back burner for now. When I do make it, I'll consider how to include it on here or in the game itself.
Thank you. :) Things can get standardized very fast and while it's not necessarily a bad thing, I find it's healthy to sometimes question those habits and standards to do things in a way that's a little more intentional.
This is really fun! I like the fact that the MC is an unrepentant villain--and that the plot's about him trying to escape consequences. But can he? The writing is gorgeous and period-appropriate; there's no modern speak that sometimes pops up in historical IF.
A bit suggestion if I may: can you darken the font on the light mode? It's a bit hard to read given the background. I know dark mode is very popular, but it actually tires my eyes really quickly so I have to use light mode.
I'm glad you're enjoying the story and thank you for the feedback!
I'll look into the color scheme and see what I can do about it in a future update.
Edit: looking at it again, it's possible the font's weight might be the issue more than the color. I'll still look into improving it, but I would recommend trying out the other font available, it's likely easier on the eyes.
Each relationship option is bisexual and/or biromantic. The relationships might play out a little differently depending on your character’s gender, but they are open to all gender.

I really like Duc Philippe de Chartres. Please tell me he is one of my love interests. I want him 😩
Chartres is aromantic in this story, but you can be friends with benefits with him.
Okay better than nothing xD thanks for the fast reply. What about Peyrolles, is he a love interest?
They're a love interest, yes.
That's great :)
DAMN! And here i wanted my Gonzague with Chartres :////
Are they by chance any same sex love interests? Male/male relationship or something like that?

I don't wanna hurt Nevers :(
I'm so sorry :(
Wow this is fire🔥
I guess my character will be like Johan Liebert in 18th century lol💀
That's certainly a way to play them! Glad you're enjoying the game. :)
