Weekly developer's blog (Patreon)

Coming in a little bit late than usual since the demo update must have been pretty indicative of what I'd been up to in the last week 👀 And I wanted to see if anything came up in the feedback forms that needs mentioning or clarifying. So far it's only been typos and a small bug - I'll have them all fixed and update the demo either later today or tomorrow. 

So yeah, this week I've been focusing on wrapping up the update. I'm happy I finally got out this Temple scene! It's actually a bit I drafted pretty early on when I started working on chapter 5. I'd have my word editor open to write the beginning of the chapter and instead I was on my phone, furiously typing away Morgana's whole speech.

And now I'm working on the next scene, where we see Accolon for the first time this chapter. There'll be a choice to define your relationship with him in the aftermath of chapter 4, as there was with Morgana. Also, Mordred finally gets the chance to swordfight Elaine! If they wish to.

Lastly, this update we got a mention of the triad of faeries native to Lothia, the Keepers. Fun fact, they're loosely inspired by iele! Since my Lothia is based on Romania, I wanted to draw inspiration from Romanian myth and folklore. They are faerie-like, feminine mythical creatures similar to nymphs. They're usually found at night in secluded areas, in forests and glens, dancing naked - as one does, if one is a mystical woman of folklore. They live in the woods, skies, abandoned houses and crossroads and possess magical powers.

As for the Keepers in Boc, I'm still on the fence about certain details of their specific powers/what powers they grant onto those who pray to them.

I'll go on to edit now!
