Telesto Update

A chapter containing the third and final selectable mission was just uploaded. It's a merry underwater adventure with the boys (and an octopus) that unlocks new options in the other chapters if completed first, or leads directly into the "final" battle if saved for last. Or it will, once I actually write that battle.

May the 4th be with you. You'll sure as Cloud need it.

This advertisement is for The Archive Undying—a debut science fantasy epic from Emma Mieko Candon, and book one in their Downworld Sequence, featuring commissioned fanart of Sunai, the book's main character. The artist is Caitlin Ono.

WHAT IT’S ABOUT

Plugged into his AI god when its corruption renders him unfortunately immortal, sad gay disaster Sunai takes a die-again-or-die-trying approach to his tragically unending life. Despotic police states want to leash him and giant robots want to eat him, but reuniting with the small handful of people he cares about is what’s actually horrifying.

Adrift in the wilds, Sunai makes several unwise decisions such as:

Scavenging old ruins haunted by hostile fragments of another shattered technological deity

Allowing his mind to become further compromised

Sleeping with his mysterious employer for information and fun

Joining a haphazard crew of pirates who all have different motives for hunting a feral remnant of the same god that cursed him, all those years ago

This brain-melting series-starter is like a Neon Genesis Evangelion AMV set to a bass-boosted cover of George Michael’s "Careless Whisper."

Harrow the Ninth, Thoughts part 2

There's a parallel between Harrow and Humanity in The Locked Tomb that I find terrifying as a Biologist.

Harrow, is the sum of 200 children, sacrificed to create one Child.

Humanity, to be Killed and Ressurected, Jod released the Ressurection Beasts. These have been going around, attacking planets with life, in their madness as revenants.

To combat and stop these Beasts, Jod and the Lyctors have been Killing Planets. Harrow says that most of these life forms on planets are simple, bacteria or other single celled organisms.

Evolutionary speaking, these are the beginnings of life, baby or child biospheres.

Jod and the Lyctors are doing what Harrow's parents have done to have her, but on an unimaginable scale. They are killing Planets on the first steps of life, Infant Biospheres, strangling them in their cradles, for the sake of ONE FORM OF LIFE: HUMANITY.

No wonder John tells Harrow it's not her fault, he knows what her parents did, how it feels like. I think, that's why he puts a lot of focus on Harrow. He wants to know that what he is doing is worth it, and perhaps Harrow is proof of that.

It’s the year 3078. Everything is peaceful. No wars, no crimes, no racism, no social hierarchies. Nothing.

The world was at last unified under a single chip, designed to regulate human emotions. Everyone was equal, everyone was content, everyone was happy.

A perfect, ideal world everyone had hoped for.

That's what you thought, too.

That is, until your chip malfunctioned, and you began seeing things you've never seen before.

Customize your MC: name, gender, appearance, personality, and more.

5 romance options (not gender flexible)

Survive the new world you're thrown into

Figure out government mysteries and build relationships

Demo | Masterlist | Character Portraits (TBD)

Bailey Cromwell (M) The Boss

The quiet and stern man who found and brought you into your new world. He has a reputation for being stoic and cold, maybe even a bit heartless, but within your new society, he also appears to be highly respected.

And though he exudes an aura as cold as the winter breeze, the warmth you feel whenever his skin grazes against yours reminds you that he is human after all.

Alistair Esplin (F) The Leader

The quiet leader of the unit you've been assigned to. You'd assume she was of the same kind as your new boss had you not seen the subtle, occasional smiles she'd allow on her face.

But her sharp gaze and clear voice, her strong personality that shines through in times of panic makes you question if there are a lot more to her character than she chooses to reveal.

Kieran Argyle (M) The Troublemaker

The sarcastic and often grumpy member of your unit. But not only is he known for his sarcastic personality, he's also notorious for his mischief, causing trouble left and right, leaving more than just a little paperwork for your boss to complete.

Most people dismiss him to be an arrogant prick, but when you see his unconditional loyalty for his teammates, you can't help but wonder whether he'll allow you into his heart as well.

Juno Oshiro (M) The Sunshine

The resident sunshine and puppy of your unit. Even within your new society, he's known to be (and quite loved for) his bright smiles and personality.

As optimistic and outgoing as he is, in those rare moments you catch him by himself, in his moment of vulnerability, you think you can see a myriad of emotions swimming in his usually sparkling eyes.

Naolin Aguilar (F) The Bodyguard

The bodyguard assigned to protect you in missions. She rarely speaks, and the way she carries herself reminds you of a military general. Formal, efficient, and entirely professional.

And though she remains a hard shell to crack, during the rare moments she relaxes, you're allowed into a far expressive side of hers that leaves you curious for more.

These sea automations have faded into obsolescence, and the knowledge of how to repair them would have disappeared entirely if not for the efforts of one child.
