What do you want as the subject for the next drabble (as previously suggested by the Greater Circle)? This poll will remain open for one week (until August 21, 11:59PM Eastern).

Far Future Snippet - Nonlucid Dreaming

And with 18 votes, Arthur wins the Far Future Snippet vote for August.

Alas, for anyone hoping for further Camelot shenanigans, we instead have Modern Day Arthur finally once again crossing paths with a Harbinger MC who isn't a lucid dreamer Ì·tÌ·hÌ·aÌ·tÌ· Ì·cÌ·aÌ·nÌ· Ì·cÌ·hÌ·aÌ·sÌ·eÌ· Ì·aÌ·fÌ·tÌ·eÌ·rÌ· Ì·hÌ·iÌ·mÌ·.

My Dress Up Darling

I had one last preview floating around from the first part of Chapter 2-5 (different from the ones also posted on Tumblr and the CoG forums) and here it is as a free preview. The clothes_striking and hair_striking variables finally strike back.

Video of the Scintillating Writing Process

Featuring Google searches and very slow typing as I keep getting distracted by the screen recorder. This is for the next segment of this month's Alpha Update, starring a completely normal trip to City Hall.

July 2025 - Questions & Answers (Extended)

As suggested by the Greater Circle and voted on by the Greater/Lesser Circle tiers, it's the July Question & Answer session, coming in at 2833 words. And a certain someone has returned from their AWOL shenanigans.

Adrian: *still sighing* I came so close to escaping this month too.

Along with the ever-present Merlin, Arthur the High King of B...

A Good Day (Interlude Harbinger)

And the runner-up drabble for July with 21 votes is "Adrian actually having a good day, whatever that looks like for him" at 1596 words. (Better luck next time, Vivian!)

Another multi-POV drabble, this time from the points-of-view of Gwen, Lorelei, and Adrian. Someone may or may not be having more fun here than certain others, however. (Percy agrees!)

Password: ...

The Price of Free Will (Interlude Adrian)

And the winning drabble for July with 25 votes is "Adrian’s POV of being saved from certain death by MC (good friend quietly pining maybe? Or whatever sparks joy). MC sustains permanent injury but lives. His thoughts on that." at 1477 words.

I had to think of a way for MC to sustain permanent injury with a healer in the party, so we're moving forward in the timeline. The big threat...

Poll: Character Questions & Answers (July 2025)

Vote on what questions to send to the characters for this month's Q&A session, as suggested by the Greater Circle. Also, quick reminder that Patreon poll options cap at 140 characters, so if your question is longer than that, I'll have to shorten it for the poll (but the full version will be used for the actual Q & A if it wins)

Top 4 - 7 chosen (depending on current state of the 2nd stretch goal) go through & get answered w̶h̶e̶t̶h̶e̶r̶ t̶h̶e̶ c̶h̶a̶r̶a̶c̶tÌ...

Definitely the good guys here. From the first part of Chapter2-5 which should be going live in the Alpha update early next week.

Closed Beta - Version 0.24 (Lesser Circle)

Here is the update to Version 0.24 (final update to Merlin's Guide, new text messages, completed Free Time Hub, and bug fixes sent in for the Greater Circle version).

As this is a hub that will become available once every chapter from this point onwards, you'll be able to run through it around 1 – 4 times (depending on if you're slothful, if you had to take a detour on the road, if one of the ROs triggers an additional scene with you etc.) before the game moves on. 2025-07-14 13:31:38 +0000 UTC View Post

Far Future Snippet - Mop & Broom Fight

And with 12 votes, Lorelei wins the Far Future Snippet vote for July.

This scene will be far longer in the actual game itself with multiple fighting back options (hey, maybe the MC wants to be the one screaming and throwing their weapon!) and the other ROs doing their thing in the background, but I think you can get the gist here.

It's fine. It's fine. It's fine.

Yet somehow the mantra repe...

The Haunted Warehouse

Since we're finally leaving the Warehouse for good with the next update I just finished drafting, it seems a good moment to post this. I spent way too much time trying to find on Google Street View the rusted concrete warehouses that I could see on the aerial maps.

I failed. Apparently, some of those roads on the aerial map don't actually exist on street view. I blame gremlins. Anyway, this one at least looks close enough-ish.

Real Person Slash (Interlude Harbinger)

And the second-place winner for June's drabble with 14 votes is "The gang finds MC's Adrian x Merlin fanfic" at 1657 words. Although, sorry Adrian, you're not topping here.

Apparently June is smut month. Merlin Ì·aÌ·nÌ·dÌ· Ì·GÌ·wÌ·eÌ·nÌ· is having a grand time now... Adrian not so much. This is another multi-POV drabble, although the main one is Lorelei.
