Don't get distracted!
The target has been decided. The deadline has been set. All that is left is for you, Adam Finch, assassin extraordinaire, to execute your mission. Success is inevitable. Because you are weapon made flesh, and nothing will stop you from completing your mis- Oh! Look! A story-game!!

There are 5 endings: 'Double kill', 'War in the shadows', 'Retiree rescue', 'Kiss of death' and 'Who let him cook?!'.

Ignis and Aero
Aero, a 14-year-old inhabitant of the village of Albritton, wants nothing more than to read his enthralling storybooks in peace. When he hears of a Golem wandering in the forests near his village, he is more than happy to let the professionals deal with it, while staying within the comfort of his home.

Unfortunately for him, his adventurous brother, Ignis, has other plans.

Author's note: If you want to collect all endings, then there are six of them: The Wise, The Mourner, The Cleaner, The Knight, The Skeptic and The Magician. Certain choices don't have immediate effects but may influence the endings. Also, certain endings can be reached through multiple different paths.

Of dreams and daemons
Most would be willing to trade a great deal to catch a glimpse of what the future holds. Hannah de Reade, however, has spent her time in Lumintrone ignoring the omens that she sees in her prophetic dreams. All she wanted was some semblance of normalcy.

But when her dreams warn her of a daemonic plot, she is compelled to act against it, leading her to be invited as an honored guest to the Imperial Castle.

However, in a court filled with dark secrets, are her eyes that can pierce through fallacies truly a gift or a curse? You will have to take Hannah's side and guide her through this ordeal that will forever change her fate.

And perhaps you will change the fate of Lumina itself in the process.

Author's note: There are nine endings. I highly recommend reaching multiple endings since you may not be able to experience the entirety of the plot with one read. While they are not central to the story, I should also warn that themes of domestic abuse and graphic violence are present in it.

A newspaper delivery boy stumbles onto a criminal conspiracy!

Live me not

An eternal flower for a dying princeling. The future of a kingdom weighed against the greed of a visiting merchant.

Tonio normally wanted nothing to do with nobles and their fickle ways. While they had more gold to pay, they were almost invariably terrible customers who were hard to please. But when the King of Spireshade made him an offer he couldn't refuse, Tonio saw the opportunity to make his most earnest desires come true.

But how far will a man go for the castles that reside in his dreams? How much will he sacrifice along the way? This is what the choices you make will determine.

Hah! Do you all really believe mizal is real? It's all a simulation! Elves don't render unless you get close to them. Bingo, sheeple!

You aren't fooling anyone with this. Just stop posting on the forums and do something productive instead, like rating storygames.

So you're gonna use this excuse three more times... noted.

I couldn't really tell if this was about the group mentioned after the paragraph that mentioned me or if it referred to everyone who wasn't part of the first group.

Why did I catch a stray here? ToT

I will admit that I don't really use social media much and am therefore very inexperienced at the verbal jousting many here seem to enjoy. I'm mostly just here to improve my writing skills.

Hmm, yeah. I guess you are right. When I think of interactive fiction in the modern era, I think of stuff like Dispatch or Detroit Become Human which definitely deal with enough heavy themes that I wouldn't call them children's fiction. I definitely don't think we should start infringing on creative freedoms of authors for the sake of the children. The maturity rating should be enough of a warning for children to stay away. (Not that they would pay attention to that stuff but ehh, what can you do?)
