An unforeseen event leads you to being inside of a forest in the dark of night. Now you must leave the forest right in time before your curfew, and so you can make it on time to class tomorrow for an important test. Will you be able to do so?
Update (2/14/21): Fixed the grammatical error in what’s essentially the first sentence, which is thanks to mizal.
Update (2/20/26): Updated with very minimal changes in grammar and syntax for certain lines. Why am I republishing this? Even though perhaps it's might not be like my other story-games, I am also a bit fond of this little piece of writing. Enough to not want to just keep it unpublished. Who knows? Maybe I'll change my mind again. Minds and feelings can be fickle things. But for now, enjoy it or not, at your discretion, person that is reading this.
Author Notes:
---
This story-game is quite a short one, and intentionally so. I tried making it about 1200 words, as it's inspired by an existing game with a number that is close to 1200(1,232), but this is definitely goes a bit beyond that. Inspired by a thread that is about that very game.
Dedicated to making mizal happy, and EndMaster for his constant support. Oh, and the nice community of CYS.
This was made in a night of drinking tea and eating chocolates for inspiration.
In any case, I hope this short little story is something that can be enjoyed.
It all began with a harmless lie.
Update: A very big thanks to Sherbet is owed from me. I thanked him already, I think. However, it doesn’t hurt to really make sure that it's stated in this description of my story-game as well. He proofread so much and found the many, upon many typos that were littered in the game. Unfortunately, this is still something that was written by me. So there might still linger some weird prose and maybe even the odd typo. Not because of any fault of Sherbet's, because the proofreading was immaculate, imo. Despite that, I hope the experience is one that is enjoyable/entertaining at the end of the day. Thanks!
Author Notes:
This story is a contest entry for EndMaster's prompt contest. It shares the same world as Foolish Princess and might even follow many similar story beats. However this can be experienced in the vein of a standalone entry. None of the characters are shared and no mention of any events or characters in Foolish Princess is made. Matter of fact, this takes place many years before Foolish Princess chronologically.
Oh, be advised that this story tackles themes such as murder and genocide, crusading times and such.
Family must die. With a kingdom in shambles, and a crown too heavy in the weight of both responsibility and sin, someone must acquiesce the throne. But what can one princess do?
Update: Taking ninjapitka's very helpful and wonderful comment in mind, I've went back to this story to iron out many of the typos that were present in the first publishing. So I want to thank him for basically allowing me to bring a hopefully improved story-game here for you all to experience. However, there still might be some that are present. If so, feel free to point them out in a comment or message me directly if you feel the want/need. In any case, I hope any potential enjoyment isn't too badly affected, and that this is something that can be found fun in some capacity. Thank you to ninjapitka again, and whoever reads this.
Update #2: The story-game is in the progress of being proofread and fixed up a bit. A special thank you to Tim36D for sitting down and giving me a list to follow for these corrections.
Author Notes:
This story is a contest entry for EndMaster's Dark Fantasy Edge lord contest 2. I wouldn’t call the protagonist in this instance an edgelord, but the story does have some rather dark themes to say the least.
Foolish Princess has three endings that you can receive. There's one that is honesty pretty normal. One that can be considered the 'bad' ending. And there's a 'true' ending that can be reached as well.
I hope you all enjoy it.
A Wish-granting bird that talks! That is the rumor going around in your school. With your three friends, you can choose to get to the bottom of said rumor, or not, really. The choice is yours.
Entry for the 24hr Comp.
Written in under a day, so that I can prove to myself that I can still turn in... something!
Thread for said contest.
I suppose there's like one ending with an epilogue, that is happy. There's also an ending without an epilogue. Everything else is non-standard endings. Wanted to keep this one a bit more light-hearted here, folks!
Hope you guys enjoy.

Just like Willy-boy. :)

I'd be insecure if I was Will's personal Asian masseuse/live-in-maid/secretary/ball-handler/cock/cum gargler/mouthpiece.
Fortunately, I'm not.
But wait a minute, aren't you Asian?
Ahhhhhhhhh!

Did you go to China because your dick is small here, but over there it would be considered big or average sized?

You'll understand when you're a little older, kid.

I wouldn't have expected anything else.

You're the greatest ever!
Thank you!
It wasn't me that asked, btw.
This is also of great surprise to me as well.

I think an extension sounds great!
Let's see where I am at so far, though...

Yes. But now since it's in your trophy description. You literally have to host it forever, even if it eventually costs a million dollars in the dystopian cyberpunk future.
It's both a blessing and a curse.
Ha.
