will we be able to show some fighting skills in new path? Like i know that mc will eventually be dragged back, bcs story must progress, but if we play as blood kell for example would we be able to do some dmg? I like to imagine that when my mc would finally be dragged back bloody cursing and with missing limbs lol there would be at least 2 or 3 mercs would have to be dragged unconscious behind them :D

[You approach the furthest blade with your breath caught in your lungs, their back still turned against you. Stabbing in the neck is out of the question, but you spot their hood loose around their neck and decide to pull it, bending them backwards. You help them along with a kick to the back of their knees. Your knife sinks in between armor and clothes. A squelching sound, blood seeping onto the grass now.]

This is one variation in a larger body of text, race and choice of trap will influence the route a lot!

#ouroboros-if #interactive fiction #hell yes you will be able to fight the blades!!! I'm having so much fun writing it #(although fighting scenes are a weak spot for me... prolly why I avoided this for so long)#its been a struggle trying to figure out what can move the story along without mc feeling like a pushover #and using the different origins and the choice of traps the mc sets up has really helped me along.#i cant wait for you to read it!#I also cant wait to finish the actual chapter and not just the addition to the intro #*gulps* anywaaaay.#im trying my best I promise 🥺#noticing now that I use 'neck' twice in a sentence and my eye is twitching. where is my laptop #anyhow! the part where mc is getting wrestled back to the hedge is what im writing now #before that is 5500 words of absolute mayhem...ive been doing well the past week despite a packed schedule! wahoo!#thank you nony for the inspo and enthusiasm<3
