The concept of this story was started years ago (back when it was going to be a book and not an interactive fiction) and the plan was for the main character to die in the end! I'm still debating whether or not that will be the only ending of the story. I have a rough outline of where this will go but it's still very bare bones.
Thank you so much for showing interest in my story! Hopefully the next update will be out soon. After a two year break I'm finally continuing my schooling, which is great, but unfortunately it means that updates will be slow.
