You are Reinhold, master swordsman and victor of the Royal Swordsmanship Tournament. The King was so impressed with your skill, he personally requested that you be transferred out of the army and into the Royal Guard! Not bad for an orphan who was raised in a brothel in a poor fishing village.

The only issue at this point is your assignment... you've been charged to be the personal guard of the King's only daughter Marianne. While she is the vision of loveliness that you'd expect from a Princess, her personality is... well... she seems to have some issues.

After a mostly pleasant teatime with Luciana and Takamaru, Marianne headed to her next order of business for the day- literature. But before she got more than a few pages into her book, her illness started to get to her and so you managed to convince her to go back up to her room and get some rest.

Princess carrying was involved.


>Congratulations, Reinhold is now a fearsome DIRE WOLF!
>Much larger than their the other types of wolf, the Dire Wolf's size also means that they are also that much more dangerous.
>The Princess considers you to be her dear friend!
>But while dire wolves are massive, they still don't -quite- stand on the same level as people.

As Melanie walks back into the Princess's room, you breathe s sigh of relief. Even though you might not be allowed in there, Melanie's presence means that Marianne will actually have someone looking after her.

"...huh," you say as you look at your pocketwatch. It's ten minutes before noon, this is the earliest that you've ever been dismissed for the day.

You could go and bother one of your friends... but it's pretty early and they might be busy...

Yeah. Karel is pretty great. I find it odd we're with Luciana... but I haven't read the archives so I'm sure there's a good reason. She's probably been with us since the start working her way into our heart. Looking forward to going back and watching the relationship develop.

>>35720566
She's not bad, and arch has mentioned a few times that he was hoping we'd have gone for her, but alas, that ship has sailed.

Nicolette's likely busy with her Guard Captain duties right now, but Sylvie's probably free... maybe. You're not exactly sure what she'd be doing at this time of day, but it's not like she has any specific duties to take care of so you figure that she'll probably be free to hang out.

Probably.

From what you've hears from her in the past, Sylvie tends to study magic in one of the castle's many libraries so that's where you head first, making a beeline for the one that yo0 frequent the most.

...but she's not there. The only ones who you see in the library are Emilio and Karel, and they seem to be in the middle of a magic lesson.

is this counting the discussion/waifu wars/shitposting, or is it the actual wordcount of only Archelon's posts?
>>
>>35720626
Simple summary: she pounced us well and totally about a month after we met. Sylvie's the one who's been around the whole time, but she didn't make a move first out of shyness and later because we're a traumatized wreck of a child rape victim who has flashbacks and freakouts if we're hugged too hard, and she didn't want to push us when we said we weren't ready for a relationship.
Then, of course, we hooked up with luci pretty much immediately after saying that, and Sylvie lost it a little.
>>
>>35720711
I think it's just archelon's posts, but not all of his post was story post however.
>>
>>35720715
Jesus... I think I understand.. why the waifu is in the middle of the ranking. If I read the archives I'm apparently going to need alcohol.
>>
>>35720741
Luci jumped us and dogged MUH PTSD triggers, while sylvie hit them, nicolette was relegated to bro-tier and marianne wasn't jumping on our dick since she's had issues like us.
>>
>>35720741
Still it put the war to rest and things got a lot more personable after the fallout.
>>
>>35720715
>>35720741
Now you know why we don't speak of the waifu wars.

Even bringing it up now will probably cause an argument. I don't even think the majority of the Lucifags we had remain anymore.
>>
>>35720766
Right. I'm not reading. I'm happier not knowing.
>>
>>35720770
Also a LOT of people left, like over 3/4ths of the readership

This isn't a bad thing

Don't think we have a majority, period, of the readers there once were.

Luciana was my second choice, regardless.

I feel bad for suggesting that whole we weren't ready for a relationship thing, I meant it at the time and a whole lot of other people did, but I think most people just watched on it as a way to not get with Sylvie. So when Luci got the focus for a dozen or two threads it really just wasn't possible for people to stay true to that "not ready for a relationship" line.

>>35720774
There's no need for an argument, the thread is way better and less busy than it was back then so there's actually room for discussion and debate.

No, read it. Learn from archelon's mistakes.

The level of toxicity back then was surprising. It really was.

I keep a .txt file with all the story post writing in it, that's where the word count comes from.

The basic summary of the waifu wars is that you're now reading a quest that got over it's own version of a readership apocalypse.

But from endings
There's a new beginning!
One filled with cake feeding and getting trapped inside magic tombs.
>>
>>35720815
>The affinity debacle.
That was pretty much all on archelon, though.
>>
>>35720798
That was YOU?

YOU opened up the slight possibility of the Nico confession, so I can't judge you. Us Nicofags appreciate the service.

>>35720826
I do believe it rated a 5 or 6 out of 10 on the shit storm scale.
>>
>>35720814
Let's be fair, if you could take a step back and just observe how passionate people were getting about a tiny text based collective game, about a consequential, but ultimately secondary, character progression decision... Well you really need to give Arch props for getting everyone so immersed in this thing is all I'm trying to say.

>trapped inside magic tomb

>>35720849
As a marifag, I'd say it was a solid 8
>>
>>35720849
Nah, it was way higher than that. It was at least a 7 or an 8.

Other quests were flooded with it for a month. I don't think anything has rustled /tg/'s jimmies like that did. Not even that other quest whose name escapes me that had surprise NTR.
>>
>>35720849
That was AT LEAST a 7 probably pushing 8. We're lucky no one got banned.

>>35720865
Lucianna accidentally locked us in a magic spell for a few minutes.
>>
>>35720862
This was pointed out several times over those threads, potentially by you, in addition to the others.

While I don't disagree, I think it says more about neckbeards than archelon's masterful writing abilities.

I don't think it was Arch's mistake as much as it is a problem with running a dialogue heavy quest, it's hard to move time forward fast enough to keep up with audience expectations and when they're putting the votes in the MCs character progression can get a bit wonky.

>>35720817
I also rolled that crit 1 while dancing with Marie.

>>35720842
At the time I was hoping we could stay without a waifu through the marconetti thing because we clearly had issues we had to deal with before courting a grill.
Luci just courted us hard and skillfully and the audience fell for it hook, line and sinker.
>>
>>35720878
Which thread is it, I wanted to actually read that part
It's clearly before 206 since it mentions that event, but it has to be after 198, since 199 is when Rein actually gave her the grimoires
>>
>>35720865
That's the Luci experiment debacle during the timeskip.

My biggest complaint with Luci so far is that she doesn't seem to do anything in her spare time that we can attribute to her character.
List Lucy's hobbies outside of Reinhold, now list Reinhold's hobbies and compare. She needs some more exposure that I'm hoping we can start seeing more of soon. Outside of "She's very pushy" there really isn't much to her.

Don't listen to them, Anon.
The only reason not to read EVERYTHING in the archives is because you might not catch up in time before the quest ends. I read the entire threads and caught up a couple of months ago, shit is magical. The only thread I think I couldn't finish because of the sheer volume of shitposting was thread #113, though the number could be completely wrong. This quest used to argue over the most useless stuff, there have been so many shitstorms, people don't even mention stuff like how much people went apeshit over Rein's elemental affinity, even though it didn't even matter that much.
>>

Don't act like it wasn't the most fun moment in the entire quest.

It feels like a lot of people who got really riled up about stuff like magic affinity and waifus have either left or calmed down some, so it's been a pretty good result from where the quest was.

Reading about and practicing dangerous black magic, and teasing Marie. Also cooking, but that could arguably be counted as directly Rein-related.
>>

I agree, it was fun. But it was still horrible all the same.
>>
>>35720946

Peaches.

You forgot to capitalize the F in Fun.
>>
>>35720955
Don't forget she is like a skilled politician already, and also cultivated a spy network in her spare time. Those count as hobbies right?
>>
>>35720955
You forgot recruiting and operating her own intelligence/espionage ring back in Marcotti, though I suppose she did turn all (most) of her assets over to her father before leaving.
>>
>>35720955
See: I find it really hard to believe that Luci just spends all day reading magic books and sipping tea.

Which is why I'm hoping we don't keep her at arms length for the rest of the quest and start exploring her character. She barely even had one before we went to Marconetti and she started getting touchy.

Horrible and Fun it may have been, but it was a great moment to help move Rein and Marie's relationship forward, it showed that he really was just another human suffering as she's suffered and letting out his emotion instead of bottling it up was a good thing for him too, or at least that's how I think about it.

Peaches is still the highlight of the quest for me.
Don't get me wrong, I've loved the story since then but the peaches incident was what made me go from "Oh yeah, this is quite a fun quest." to "Holy fuck, I need to know everything about these characters and follow them for the next year of my life to make sure they all live hapily ever after".

I'm sure she spends her nights recruiting new assets in the city and trying to find new sources of information about the people involved in the attack on her country and the people behind them.

And she probably killed that guy that was bad mouthing Marcotti when we ran into Citrine the other week.

I think his concern is that we don't really share anything in common with Lucianna. We're not her bodyguard and we barely see her outside of going to Gregory's house.

Before Macaroni happened, we saw Nicolette more than anyone else in the quest besides Marianne, including Sylvie. That's because we shared an interest and had something that we actively wanted to do every time we both got off work.

We really don't have anything like that with Lucianna, and we need to get one.
>>
>>35721001
The archives are waiting, man.
Any summary would be a disservice.
>>
There's a decent chance (well, actually a fairly large chance) that Karel's still sore about you confronting her this morning, and Emilio actually looks happy as he goes over some kind of book with her. It's probably best not to interrupt that.

Taking care not to give away your presence, you carefully do an about-face and head out of the library and into the hallway.

Back to looking for Sylvie... but now that the library is out of the question, you're really not sure where she might be.

Oh, but there's her father over there, talking with Nicolette.

We realize, but honestly if we had kept up the no relationship stance any longer the thread would have gone insane and I wouldn't be surprised if Arch just quit, it's happened to more than a few other QMs when their communities get that uncontrollable.

>>35721101

She just seemed like the stereotypical kind of character /tg/ would normally go for so I tried to avoid voting for her flags.
That said she'll probably be second on my to do list when the VN comes out.

>>35721212
Nah, recently he said that we could technically romance both of them, have Nico be our official waifu, and have Meido as a 'mistress' for both of us.

It's not a full harem, but it's the closest thing in this quest.

The reason harem endings are dangerous is because all of the girls are nobility in a time when that matters and their dads can all murder us. Meido is the only other girl that doesn't have that problem, and it only works with Nico because Nico likes Meido.

I wonder if we could've gotten Raya in on that...
>>
>>35721230
Personally I'd have dropped the quest if Maido won, not out of any issue with the character, but because my mother's name is Melanie and it would be intensely awkward reading any sort of romantic interactions in the first person.
>>
>>35721230
For everyone who wanted Nico... it's like NTR. She's around constantly banging the maid. it's awful.

Then it doesn't really matter, does it? He could have mentioned that back when the waifu wars were in full swing and that probably would have changed the outcome quite a bit because we were drilling it into our heads just how not-happening a harem end was.

"So are you gonna go over there and take care of it yourself?" Nicolette asks.
"Eh..." Sir Vincent shrugs, "I like fighting and all, but me and water don't exactly mix. "Not to mention that Thierri wants me to stick around here until Celestino's kids are gone, just in case something happens."
"I guess that makes sense," she sighs.
"You could always try and take care of it yourself, though..." he laughs.
"Yeah right, I was even having trouble with that Behemoth, and that was a land battle. Leviathans are waaaaay out of my range."

Leviathans? What?

"But what's he gonna do about it if you're not going to take care of it?" Nicolette asks. "Send my old man instead?"

"How'd who word what?" you ask.
"Wha-" Nicolette quickly turns to you. "...oh, hey Reinhold," she sighs. "Don't sneak up on me like that."
"You didn't notice him coming?" Sir Vincent shrugs.
"Pardon me for not having as amazing reflexes as you," she replies.
"Uh, sorry," you shrug. "You mind if I ask what you two were talking about just now, though? Is something dangerous going on? I heard you mention Leviathans..."

"Oh yeah," Sir Vincent shrugs. "We've gotten reports that they've been getting rowdier than usual lately. I dunno if it's because of the lowered number of boats that've been travelling along the rivers or what, but..."

I think that's why we ended up going with her.

She's isn't good, but there's so little to her that there's nothing to be offended about. It's not like she has a damning personality flaw that no one could agree/disagree with. Mostly because at the time we didn't know that much about her personality anyway.

"Er, is there anything that I can do to help with this?" you ask.
"Nah, this's probably just some kind of periodic migration crap or whatever," Sir Vincent replies. "Stupid lesser dragons always were weird like that..."
"Not to mention that we don't want to actually provoke them," Nicolette says. "That'll call ALL kinds of problems that nobody wants to have to deal with."
"Yeah, my sister's had plenty of bad memories thanks to those," you reply.

Even though you'd have never known Citrine at all if it wasn't for them, they're still to blame for ruining Citrine's life to the point where she ended up stuck in Cateno to begin with. It's a... complicated feeling.

Apparently, if you listen to archelon's word about it after the fact, we didn't "click" with her.

To this day I don't know what we should have done differently because when given a choice to spend time with someone, we always ALWAYS ALWAYS chose Nicolette. We were choosing nicolette above Luci back in Marconetti.

So I'll never know what we "Should" have done.

My guess is: we didn't carry her from the training hall that one time to dinner.

We should have carried her on our shoulders.

"Your sister did...?" Sir Vincent turns to you.
"Yeah, but don't get into it. They've been through some shit," Nicolette replies.
"Alright, I understand," he nods. "Everyone's got stuff they don't wanna remember."
"Exactly," she taps him on the shoulder. "So what brings you over here, Reinhold? Goofing off as usual?"
"I was actually looking for Sylvie," you reply. "Marianne's sick so I have some free time..."
"Oh, I bet she'd love that!" Sir Vincent says, clapping his hands together like thunder.

"I'd join you but I'm still on the job," Nicolette sighs.

"I guess I'll see you in the kitchen tonight, then?" you ask.
"You know it!" Nicolette laughs. "Tell Sylvie that I said hi, okay?"
"Tell her that I did too!" Sir Vincent joins in.
"Will do," you reply with a salute.

With that, you leave them to their conversation and turn around the corner, continuing along until you reach the dark, foreboding study of one Niklaus Sucher. Not that you've ever been afraid of him, of course. Opening the door, you head inside and continue on until you hear someone talking.

"How's the flow going?" Niklaus asks. "...it -is- going, right?"
"Umm, I think so," Sylvie replies. "This tool's lighting up more when I put it on this side than it is on the other, at least..."
"Wonderful, that means that it's actually working as I'd hoped!" he says with a mad cackle.
"I don't really know why you're so intent on working on this stuff, though..."
"Bah, you're just letting your father's prejudices blind you to the possibilities of this resear-"

Niklaus stops midsentence and sticks out his tongue almost as if he's... tasting the air? What?

"Male human," Niklaus says.
"...huh?" Sylvie stares at him.
"The sanctity of my serene study has been breached by a male human," he replies. "Please pay attention."
"I'm trying to, but-"
"Smells like... metal. A familiar..." he snaps his fingers. "Ah, it's Lab Assistant The Second, Reinhauser!"

Taking that as your cue, you step out from behind a bookcase and wave to them.

"Uh, hey," you say. "Sorry if I was interrupting something..."
"No, no, of course not!" Niklaus replies, shaking his head so fast that just looking at it's starting to give you a headache. "You are always welcome here!"

>>35723584
arch's self-insert is probably on another continent.

Remember than the main story of that world takes place in weeabooland and that Granache is just one tiny country among many.

>A really, really, really tiny country. Like Monaco sized.

arch realized he fucked up on that one. It's been retconned.
>>
>>35723639
arch said he screwed up the size of Granache so i'm assuming its a lot larger than that since he said it has multiple cities.
>>
>>35723630
If you're a six legged scorpion-dragon-turtle, why on God's green Earth would you think a mullet would be a good look?

>multiple cities
Shit, really?
I thought we were just a city state this whole entire time...
Good thing this isn't border guard quest or I'd probably have gotten us sacked.
>>
>>35723671
I like to think it is the size of the Netherlands since that split up in to modern Netherlands and Belgium like Granache and Marconetti

Not to big but not to small.
>>
>>35723677
Belgium is the recommended unit of measurement for Europeanesque states.
Italy's about 10 Belgiums
France is 18 and 1/3 Belgiums
Cyprus is 1/3 of a Belgium

You get the gist.
>>
>>35723734
And Granache was supposed to be half the size of Rhode Island, so 1/20 of a Belgium.
>>
>>35723767
I'm glad that was retconned because that is hilariously tiny
>>
>>35723767
Much like time needed to run a quest, size is something Arch routinely underestimates.
God bless his turtle soul.
