Side Dishes 10: Poll 3 (Patreon)

The next Side Dishes poll is interesting because it will determine how the rest of the chapter will play out. Depending on what wins, we might continue into the story going forward, or we might have another poll immediately after, as several of the suggestions are just clarifying the rules of the world and aren't necessarily setting up specific scenes.

Be sure to read all the suggestions! You can vote for multiple choices if you can't settle for just one, or if you just see one you know you don't want to win, you could just vote for everything else... also I think you're able to just vote for everything, even though that's functionally identical to just not voting so I'm not sure why you'd bother...

1. The Prize at the Castle – Emi tells the girls that their goal is to reach the castle in the center of the hedge maze. The first to reach the castle will have their wish granted, which will extend into the real world. Karen thinks how she’d love if free use sex with the norm in the world, Amber thinks how she would love to be worshipped as a Goddess, and Trixie doesn’t have a desire at first, but will eventually wish for the real world to be just like the Rose Garden, since she grows to like it so much.

2. Face their Fears – The girls must face challenges inspired by their real world fears, and will even face beings who resemble people in their real lives. She warns that failing these tests will cause changes in the girls, and may even cause ripples in the real world. Their first challenge is for Amber to face her fear of her stern coach, Inara.

3. Race with Female Orcs – Emi reveals that the girls will be racing against a group of female orcs, trying to reach the Castle at the center of the hedge maze first. However, she fails to mention that the girls will be distracted during their contest by visions of their True Loves who will be distracting them with temptation.

4. Gathering “Mana Cream” - The girls are told that the Queen in the castle at the center of the hedge maze has organized a challenge to gather “Mana Cream”, which is both a source of magical power and a key ingredient in delicacies. The girls are tasked with traveling to the castle while seeking Mana Cream, but if they indulge too eagerly they risk being driven mad with lust. The more Mana Cream they absorb the more their bodies will change… Karen’s clit will grow, Amber will grow her long meaty nipples, and Trixie will grow larger and larger and gain insatiable hunger. Who the Queen is and what reward she offers will be determined in a future poll.

5. Don’t be Rude – Emi  starts by explaining the stakes… the girls must be polite and helpful to the denizens of the Garden, and they must not pluck any of the roses. Being rude or aggressive will invoke punishments… and if they break too many rules, they’ll become trapped in the garden just like the other denizens. The Girls must seeks out the beings living in the Garden and complete quests for them… once they complete enough, they’ll proceed to their reward, if they don’t end up trapped in the garden forever.

6. Rolling Dice and Magic Cards – The girls are told the game is fairly simple… the Rabbit, Cow, and Cat are late a tea party on the far end of the garden. They’re in a race to reach the end, and to move they must roll a giant die and can only move as far as the number rolled. When they reach a new space a magic card appears before them, creating a challenge they must complete before they can roll again.
