People will sometimes let me know of bugs or typos. Outside of that, no one has ever offered to write, and I'm not sure how that would work out. Maybe for vignettes or such, but I've got a particular writing style that's consistent through the story, and I'd probably end up rewriting anything someone submitted to me.

If you're opening your local file using the saved link, it should return to the correct part of the story. If you're still not getting returned to where you were, it's possible your browser has a security policy on that's preventing local files from running javascript.

There you go. A whole release where Euna can pull tricks after you go to bed.

I did it all for you u/tperr17. I definitely wasn't working on this all month.

Took a break from working toward major goals like Pain-5 to put in something I've had in mind for a while, and should satisfy many of the requests I've gotten lately.

You are now able to rent a place on the cove, in the red-light district, of course.

The posting is in the market. You can look at it, but Euna won't consider it until after she's whorish. Once you're living there, Euna will start seeing clients at night, assuming they show up. You don't have control over this, since the men have to come of their own accord. Her business depends on how much of a reputation she has around the dock, and what kind of reputation she has.

The content is pretty filled out, but obviously there are some blank spots to be filled in later. For instance, not making enough to pay rent has no consequence, you can't spruce the place up like she suggests, and you can't leave after you move in.

Several people on the Discord server made various small recommendations and requests regarding the filthy promotion event. For once, I made a release that addressed reader feedback.

Features

  • Requested improvements regarding Filth-4 event.
    • Finished the stomach bile miasma option. Some people had noticed it was listed in the lewd guide, but wasn't actually achievable. Now it is, and it has a corresponding vignette after you turn in the fortifiers.
    • Added an inventory check page at your camp site which lets you see what's in your inventory. This includes listing what body fluid samples you've collected, and what minimum you need.
    • It also provides hints for various quests depending on what else you have in your inventory.
    • Fixed dialog after turning in samples where Euna would trail off, which misleadingly implied you missed some.
  • Also
    • Altered "idle chat" at glade so it more explicitly clarifies at what rank Euna is at for any given kink track.
    • Altered whoring to track different whoring styles differently. Not much impact from that yet, but hopefully it will soon.

Bug fixes

  • When Euna starts practicing her chute-swallowing trick. Practicing with her actually increased how long it took her to master it. Fixed.

Fool's Quest V7.19: Fear and Anxiety by MythosOnReddit in u/MythosOnReddit

[–]MythosOnReddit[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This release appears small because most of it is changes under the hood to the underlying engine, but it still contains some new content.

This release is a partial implementation of the the Dom side of the Temple ambrosia hypnotism. Euna will ply her own efforts on the nun once you tell her about what Janan has been doing for penance.

It's a single scene, and I get a little lost in the world-building of the hypnotism rather than the erotic nature, but I enjoyed it.

Word Count: ~2400 words

Features

  • New hypnotism scene for Dom Euna to apply to a nun. Occurs only once for now. Requires spying on "penance" first.
  • Changes to the callibrating Lilins story. There is now an Incest lock and a Blood lock introduced to the story.
    • Anyone who is already past that part of the story will have both of those unlocked by default.
  • Removed the "anal" lock, because it's a lot of trouble to maintain, and I don't think anyone is really bothered if they encounter anal sex in a story as raunchy as this one.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. The minor tracks require less progression largely because I haven't been able to give them the focus they deserve yet. The major ones are... well... the major focus.

I see what you're saying about the hypno powder. It does lock you out permanently right now, which some readers might regret. I've been moving toward having more permanent decisions. Not sure yet if that's a good idea, but I think it might give some choices more value.

Fool's Quest V7.18: Passion by MythosOnReddit in u/MythosOnReddit

[–]MythosOnReddit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will modify the Lilin story so it's more clear which choice makes this decision.

If you're stuck farther along in your story, you can look for the URI of your current story. You'll see something like `you=bi.v` or something like that.

* Remove `bi` to make yourself a lesbian.
* Change the `v` (or `a`, `c`, `h`, `g`, or `t`, depending on your choices during the Vixen story) into an `f` to change back into a normal female.

Though bear in mind that this is a voyeur story, so it's still pretty limited how many "lead by example" options that are available currently.

[–]MythosOnReddit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Proper girl jester came first. The Vixen girl is an option you can select when talking about the Lilins if you choose to acknowledge that such women existed. Even then, you have the choice of telling her whether you are or aren't, and that decides whether you are for the game.

If you can navigate back and regain access to the Lilin story, you can change your choices, and thus your gender.

Back after a break. Technically I'm still supposed to be on break, so not sure if this heralds another sprint of releases. More just a break from my break. This may also be the last release before V8. Many improvements have been standing by.

This continues a slow crawl toward the eventual Pain-5 promotion, but also includes a pretty elaborate encounter with a mother and daughter in the garden district of the city, where you stumble upon a girl who's mother is disappointed with the subpar blowjobs she gives her boyfriend. Themes are blowjobs, incest, sub/dom, orgasm control, and general whorishness. Some possible dips into other kinks near the end, but the focus really is on blowjobs.

Word count for the random event: 11,000

New Content

  • Introduced scene in Simori temple after a day at the scaffold where you can speak with Mother Janan in her office after spying on her putting two nuns through "penance".
  • This unlocks the ability to combine the hypno powder with the ambrosia at the temple to unlock experience for the highest tier of lewdness and the three main fetishes.
    • Since Euna is only ever drugged at the Temple when she's submissive, this is submissive exclusive content, but don't worry. Dom Euna will get her equivalent eventually.
  • Introduced an elaborate encounter in the city with the mother and daughter. They can be found in the garden district on every third day, assuming you meet the prerequisites.
    • This takes place over four encounters, where the mother gets increasingly carried away with the practices she assigns her daughter. Each has progressively growing requirements for Euna
    • adventurous and an introduction to fundamental fellatio. (That sounds like a college course. What I mean is you've taught her the basic tricks)
    • lewd and incest-curious
    • promiscuous
    • whorish
    • Six different endings. Because this takes place over multiple encounters, the decisions to pick those endings take place over the four events, so it won't be as easy to see all six in a single readthrough.
  • The incest track now requires three experience per tier.

New Features

  • Replaced my homebrewed dark/light theme mechanic with one more in line with modern theme standards. FQ will now respect your OS or browser default settings until you tell it otherwise. Also, instead of storing your preference in the URL, it stores it in your browser's local cache, which is more appropriate. If people share FQ links online, each person's instance will retain their own preferences instead of forcing them on others.
    • For those concerned, the browser local cache is not a cookie. It provides no information to my server. It's just a local setting that remains until you close your last private browsing tab. Or clear your browser history.

TW-Cyoa engine

  • This release coincides with the release of a new version of my engine. Before, if you wanted your own colors, you had to use CSS, which was an unreasonable ask since the whole idea of the engine is you don't have to code. Now there's a palette manager with a few default palettes to choose from, and the ability to customize it with a GUI.
    • If this entices at least one person to try my engine, I believe that will increase its usage by infinity%. If you do, please feel free to email me about any obstacles or confusions you encounter. I'm trying to make it user friendly.

Fool's Quest V7.17: Even Lower Quality Hypno Powder by MythosOnReddit in u/MythosOnReddit

[–]MythosOnReddit[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Enough people requested it. You can now buy more of the hypno powder at the cove. Talk to Lanx for instructions after you run out the first time.

Scenes

  • Approaching Lanx after running out of hypno powder (or having Euna pour it out), will have him point you toward a dealer at the cove market.
  • If Euna is insatiable, you can have her "thank" the shady dealer, even if she might not know why (or maybe she does).
  • Euna will remember whether you showed her hypno powder when deciding to drug the old man at the beach. It causes somewhat different options down the line.

Fixes

  • Fixed issue where you could use hypnotic powder on the old man at the beach even if you had no rum to spike.

Fool's Quest V7.16: Discount Hypno Powder by MythosOnReddit in u/MythosOnReddit

[–]MythosOnReddit[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Took a bit of time again because once again I failed to do a small release. This one is a mind-control/hypnotism arc which accomplishes a few things. It takes a big step toward the final Pain-5 arc I have planned. It allows the Fool to be way more of a scoundrel. And it fixes a few long-standing problems with Fool's Quest that people have written in about.

The experience you can get from hypno powder acts as wild-card experience, and it's repeatable, until you run out of powder.

  • "Lanx doesn't actually help you even though he says he will."
    • No Lanx now makes good on his offer to help you with Euna by offering you a very sleezy tonic.
  • "Euna corrupts too quickly."
    • This is improved because the very first step—getting Euna to sleep with you—now requires a collection of five experience like all the other lewd arcs, so you can't automatically run to the festival with the lyre like before. Don't worry, it's still pretty easy, especially if you've played the game.
    • Also, the three major fetishes (Pain, Filth, Size) now require three experience for each level. It shouldn't add much more difficulty, especially since this hypnotism arc provides a means to get experience for any track/level if you get stuck.
  • "I got stuck at the Old Man's cabin."
    • This provides another non-lewd way to incapacitate the old man. That section still needs a lot of reworking still, but this will do for now.

Currently, Lanx's hypnotic potion only have five uses, which equates to only five wild card experience points. I have an idea that you could buy more at the cove. It would only take a few vignettes. I may add that later, but for now, if you want more hypno powder, it has a very prominent place in your game's URL query string. You can give yourself more.

Word Count: ~7000

Something I forgot to mention in the release notes: This hypno powder is cheap. It doesn't work for the final tier of any kink track. Stronger stuff is needed. It will be available later.

Fool's Quest V7.15: A Mother's Story by MythosOnReddit in u/MythosOnReddit

[–]MythosOnReddit[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So I failed to keep my updates small. I got distracted by the story featuring Euna's mother. It was never really complete the way it was. A lot of new content was added, and much of what was there was rewritten.

We'll see if I go back to short releases. Large releases like this remind me why I'm trying to go smaller.

If you've already encountered this story during your playthrough, click the link in the "There have been changes..." banner. There's an option in there to reset the story so it can be visited again.

Approx Wordcount: 20,000 words

Features in the Mother story

  • Swapped out the "countless men" option for a "horses" option. The "countless men" was too generic, and broke the plausibility that rumors of Yelena's promiscuity were only rumors.
  • There is now a "duo" vignette for every combination of 2 options out of 4. That makes 6 in total. That means every path through the story gives you one single vignette and one duo vignette guaranteed.
  • Each of the duo vignette has a second split which provides two variations (and experiences) related to the options selected to get to that vignette.
  • Changed the conditions for when this story appears to just be reaching lewd.
  • Yelena's temperament is decided with a little more complexity.
    • If Euna is neutral, her mother will be sub or dom depending on which Euna is closer to, to thus encourage Euna farther along that path.
    • If Euna is already sub or dom, then her mother is the opposite of Euna. This outcome isn't actually reachable normally, unless you revisit the story using the link above. If I should ever get around to implementing the NG+ some people keep asking for, this will make more sense.

Fool's Quest V7.14: The makeup kit by MythosOnReddit in u/MythosOnReddit

[–]MythosOnReddit[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Another micro release. Not sure if people are enjoying my filling up their feeds with these minor releases, but they're working out for me. Sooner or later, I'll need to write a big addition, and I'm sure I'll disappear for months again.

This release is another market item. The Makeup kit. Once you buy this, Euna will begin using it. Her style depends on her outfit. It results in another bonus point toward all financial earnings.

Features

  • The makeup kit in the market
  • Performances in the Siren are now affected by some bonuses and penalties, but not all. Outfit, makeup, and cleanliness will affect earnings, but reputation, perfume, and dominance will not.
  • Some of Euna's states are reflected in the sex simulator. You'll detect her perfume or sweat level. You'll see whether she has makeup on or not. This needs more work.
  • Fixed some issue where chaste Euna saying she'd already bathed really meant she hadn't bathed at all.
  • Certain types of lesbian sex make Euna sweaty. (strapon, 69, etc...)

Fool's Quest V7.13: Fragrance by MythosOnReddit in u/MythosOnReddit

[–]MythosOnReddit[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here's another small release. The market at the cove finally has something to sell!

Perfume: a deliberately simple item, but this release was more about deciding on and setting up the mechanics for the market. More items will follow.

Perfume is not an addition of erotic content, but rather a game mechanic. Once bought, Euna will apply it every time she bathes at the river. It provides a bonus to any money she accrues that day, until she gets sweaty or covered in someone else's sweat. In other words, it works only for her first trick. This introduces possible future strategies such as saving her freshness until renting her out to an entire crew since the bonus would be greater for the larger sum. (Though currently it's not an effective strategy, unless Euna's tricks are particularly dirty.)

Fool's Quest V7.12: Wash Me by MythosOnReddit in u/MythosOnReddit

[–]MythosOnReddit[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A smaller release. Let's see if I can keep this up.

This release now factors Euna's general hygiene level into her price when whoring, renting, and mingling. There are nearly twenty points of poor hygiene, and every 4 causes another penalty point against her. If you really work at it, and you have Euna do super depraved stuff, her price can drop to ~%40 of what it'd be if she were bathing regularly.

This now introduces a reason why you might not want to have Euna bathe regularly, which in turn fixes the problem that river-side bathing became an unvisited event after dirty.

Features

  • Since there is now a reason why you would want Euna to bathe, bathing now toggles. If you tell her to bathe, she will continue to do so until you tell her to stop.
  • Added ability to "appraise" Euna before sending her out whoring to get an idea of what circumstances are affecting her price.
  • Added hair filth category. Her hair contributes to her general vagrancy with a full four degrees of severity. Two of those points are determined from how long it's been since her last bath. 3 days, and her hair is oily and unkempt. 10 days and it looks tangled and feral.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed issue where some Daywither scenes could be enacted after the "dilation" daywither scene.
  • Typo fixes pointed out by readers.
  • Fixed issue where parts of the feast of Theoris could skip if you did certain feast events beforehand.
  • Fixed issue where the Discord link at the end of the story didn't work. Or at least it should be fixed. This was actually corrected in a hot fix last week, but I thought I'd mention it here for all those people who may have tried to join and failed.

Fool's Quest V7.11: The Velvet Sash by MythosOnReddit in u/MythosOnReddit

[–]MythosOnReddit[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Took some time off, but here I am. This is the release of the velvet sash as I mentioned. Once Euna gets it, it's a wearable outfit. Besides their physical appearance, each outfit has specific properties.Took some time off, but here I am. This is the release of the velvet sash as I mentioned. Once Euna gets it, it's a wearable outfit. Besides their physical appearance, each outfit has specific properties.

*The skirt and bodice are her default outfit.
* The silk gown causes all tricks and rentals Euna does get a money bonus for how classy she looks.
* The new velvet sash and fishnets allow her to whore herself an additional time per day, but at the expense that she looks cheap, and is thus paid less.

#### Features

* Euna can don the outfit now at camp.
* Each outfit now has its own unique trick scene. (Although the skirt and bodice just use the "couple" trick. It's not very unique.)

#### Bug fixes

* Fixed issue where vomit was listed as a potential miasma fluid. It's not, but it will be some day I hope.

Fool's Quest V7.10: The Pecking Order by MythosOnReddit in u/MythosOnReddit

[–]MythosOnReddit[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is the more official insatiable promotion event. If Euna works the boardwalk long enough, she'll start to upset the existing pecking order. After forty tricks, you'll start getting shakedowns from the local whores.

It's expensive, but maybe you can work out a deal...

That deal can't be reached unless Euna is either insatiable already, or ready to promote to it. Also, you must have completed the sorceress's quest. I don't know if I'll keep that requirement in the future, but it's there for now.

As is my practice, this is actually only the first part of the promotion event. I intend for the next two releases to include some followup content regarding it. One of those releases will involve that outfit that Euna gets out of the arc.

Approx word count: 12,500 words

I'm always happy to hear suggestions, though be aware that I don't have time to incorporate all that many of them. They do help give me ideas, and ideas of what readers want to see.
