An allegory.
Author's note: the title of this story is actually The Fire, but someone else already created a storygame with that title, so I couldn't give it the title that I wanted. My second choice for the title was The Light, but another person already took that title as well, so, if you don't mind, just pretend that the title of this story is The Fire.
A story set in medieval China.
Note: Even early on in the game you can lose by making a strategically erroneous choice so choose carefully.
My interpretation of one of my favorite TV shows from childhood: Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego? This work is primarily based on the TV game show version rather than the computer game, book, or cartoon versions.
Author's note: Please do not cheat by using the Back button- just remember to Save the game every time you're promoted and Restore if you happen to lose.
P.S. See if you can find all the Easter Eggs!

Why even a little AI in your writing is bad on 8/14/2025 1:19:17 PM
I like to use AI to help me recall information that's on the tip of my tongue, stuff that I had already known before and would immediately recognize if I saw it again but couldn't remember in the moment. Like, I wouldn't use it to find the number of steel plates on an aircraft carrier, but I'd use it to find the name of the white point guard who starred on the Cavaliers in the 1990's.

Realism in science fiction on 6/8/2025 12:06:06 AM
Yes. The less realistic the supposedly real-world universe is, the less immersive and more amateurish the writing comes off as.
