Description

This is the first part of "Tides of War", a multi chaptered story.

In Betrayal, you play the role of the young Magus Uriel, a skilled elementalist accompanying an emissary's treck to a far off city.
On the road, you will face enemies that only skill, luck and a deep understanding of your magic will allow you to survive Uriel's very first adventure...

While sometimes slightly cynic, the game is supposed to be more serious than funny, with an appeal to those roleplayers among you. :)

The game plays in the entirely fictional world of Thyr, were magic rules the societies, and brave men with swords valiantly defend their settlements against goblins, trolls and other hideous monsters.

I played with the thought of converting it to an Advanced Game, so that the game remembers your Element, for example, but then I am too much of a FightingFantasy-style fan, and if you really want to cheat by browsing back or pretending to be something different than you are, as long as you enjoy yourself, you're welcome...

I still love this story. It's one of the best one the site. I wish he'd finish the sequel(s). I see that he did come on in November of 2009, so hopefully not only is he lurking, but writing. Hear that, Karacan?

I apparently got a pretty crappy ending, but I'll definitely try again for a better one--interesting and well-written story, that although I initial thought not particularly engaging, proved to be so.
