New IF: Strings of Fate: Origins
Summary:
A work in progress medieval fantasy interactive novel that follows the steps of a Hero's Journey. Take control of a hunter, cutter, smith or alchemist born in Woodcutter's Village, a small hamlet in the Kingdom of Alyrid that houses no more than 200 people.
The village is all you've ever known, but now it faces an unforeseen danger by a long forgotten enemy. Your home's only hope for survival lingers on you delivering a message pleading the Southland Duke for military support, leading you to explore regions you've only heard of in tales and songs.
But the journey is never simple. What was a simple task of delivering a message is impeded every step of the way. Struggle your way through the dangers lurking in the kingdom. Develop and awaken your still fledgeling potential for magic. Prepare for what may well be a suicidal last stand.
How much will the journey change you?
