I loved this as short story. Good writing, graphics and music. It had everything I needed for a VN. Honestly, this was close to a fantasy I had many years ago, and seeing something like it in this form really warmed my heart. If there were ever a squeal or something to expand the story, I'd definitely dive in.
Um HELLO? This was a wonderful short little read oh my gosh. Yes this had hunky muscle men in it but this was ultimately a fantastical love story and that feels harder to come by in this genre of VN's. Mostly it's just about the pr0n lol. And what a love story. This was well worth the money spent. The writing was great, the art was great and my romantic heart was fully satisfied at the end. Thanks so much for putting this out into the world :)
Loved the Story, I would love to see more from these to in expansion. Like them two gathering allies to change the kingdoms dynamic of slave ownership to equality for all. Facing more dangers and lucky breaks. Possible death twist with jarrod, but he survives with aetrian mourning his supposed death. But of course just throwing out some suggestions, pls do not think into getting pressured to do this. Again money well spent loved this story thank you Wolf bite!
Finally had the time to read this and I'm so glad I did!
Just finally seeing the backstory of Aetrian and Jarrod when I met them in Endless Bounty, plus seeing how they even wind up where they were in EB was just nice~
A sweet friendship between the two, the situation that forced their lives to change, and the love they finally reveal to each other is just so sweet!
I'm really looking forward to playing the other games centered around Lothiel!
Just finished the VN and its well worth the money spent! It's very cute, with great character & background art, so im satisfied. Also loved Endless Bounty had to 100% it on steam lol, very excited to see future projects from your team especially Engaging Destiny!
(Turbo Spoilers) I overall liked this vn but found the pacing and story stucture which led the whole thing to be a bit unsatysfying....
After Aetrian and Jaroff had a scuffle with Aetrian’s Dad and escaped I thought like the story was building up to the final push they will make to escape the kingdom entirely, but then the story just… ends.
Like, I was sure that Kelorin, Lothal or that one wolf merchant would sell them out and just felt like the tension was building to this final moment that they still need to overcome and yet the story just ended… while both Jeroff and Aetrian are still on an enemy territory (I know Aetrian is still a prince but all of his power would emmideatly be stripped away from him as soon as Acre will get the news of what actually happened). And before that they, like, decided to totally kick back, relax and have horny, even though they can be captured at literally any moment. I thought that soon they will be reminded they aren't out of cold waters yet but no, the narrative just cuts off.
And I understand that this is a prequel but it still would have been nice if the story felt complete… especially considering the fact that they won’t even be main characters in Endless bounty. Idk it just rubs me the wrong way.
That being said I don’t regret spending my money and time on this vn.
Thank you so very much! I'm glad you enjoyed it~ I certainly want to write more for them (they do make a cameo appearance in our game, Endless Bounty though!).
I've thought about putting it on Steam, but achivement-wise... there's really only one or two achivements I could add! It's just a linear story, but... we'll see!
Nice excuse, Elon Musk! Next time when you go to groceries store to buy set of veggies and your kid will ask you to buy new call of duty game instead because both things cost the same, consider buying him new call of duty game.
but im not gonna lie, im saddened that this was a short vn. It had the makings of a much larger masterpiece, but it left so much unanswered.
SPOILERS!!!
How will the king react to their running away? will the guard join their quest and stay by their side as an ally? Will the duo get thrust into an adventure that could affect the fate of all humans as a whole? What about that one kingdom with the unique mounts that only Aetrian can ride but cant because of bad blood between the two kingdoms? Aetrian's affinity for magic was AMAZING!, will he create more devices to both help the duo with the adventure.. or in the bedroom? and will the seal making Jarrod unable to cast magic be removed now that hes now a free man? Will we ever see Jarrod bottom to the Dragon?
Please! i beg you; this VN left a cliffhanger of the ages, and I am DESPERATE to see more
Ooooh, these are some great questions to ask, haha. I haven't really considered a few of those, but I -can- say they appeared in another project (Endless Bounty) and that there is still more of their story to be told.
I always thought they were kinda odd for being in the game, but not really coming to the town proper, as far as I was aware, but now we know why, they were running from a king!

I loved this story so much. Thank you
I'm really happy to hear that, so thank you as well!
Amazing story! I hope you'll continue to make sequels.
Thank you so very much! I'm glad you enjoyed it~ I certainly want to write more for them (they do make a cameo appearance in our game, Endless Bounty though!).
This is a great short story! I was so wrapped up in the story I read through in a single session. The art is beautiful. Thank you! ♥️
I read some of the comments, now I'm going to go replay Endless Bounty.
Thank you so much! Happy to hear that you enjoyed it =3
Found them in Endless Bounty :3
Game's short and sweet. Love the art, will we be seeing more of these two in future works?
Currently, they appear in my other project, Endless Bounty, but I hope to do even more with them at some point!
is this ever going to Steam? just curious because achievements and stuff are nice there lol
I've thought about putting it on Steam, but achivement-wise... there's really only one or two achivements I could add! It's just a linear story, but... we'll see!
alright gotcha, thanks for responding!
i really enjoyed the story. i hope there will be a continuation.
Thank you! I do hope to do more for these two~
I'm really excited to play this! Big fan of Extracurricular Activities and your work! Happy to show my support for such a talented storyteller.
Thanks so much for the kind words~
Five bucks? Kinda rich.
Folks pay more than that for a coffee, so I'm sure $5 to support some artists isn't asking much at all.
> Folks pay more than that for a coffee
Nice excuse, Elon Musk! Next time when you go to groceries store to buy set of veggies and your kid will ask you to buy new call of duty game instead because both things cost the same, consider buying him new call of duty game.
I think $5 is a reasonable price, considering the quality and quantity of this game :)
^ Is a literal clout chasing manbaby. Please ignore these ignorant meme basic rants.
The sheer level of hypocrisy in that statement alone is laughable. I am convinced there is no way you are an actual adult based on this behavior.
Ditto, considering the length of time it took to bait a fools response from the actual baby
The complaining is real.
> Five bucks? Kinda rich.
> There is no way you are an actual adult.
> Lenght of time
Try coming up with arguements that a), don't waste people's time, and b), don't look like they came off of Google.
I rest my case.
Ive paid for the game but it wont allow me to download
keeps saying my address is invalid
But still takes my money
Hmm, you might have to contact Support for that. I have no idea why it wouldn't let someone download it (all of the files are there and valid).
Every tme i try contacting support nothing happens
can't free play it game 😢😢😢
What?
can't download free it game 😢😢😢 because it need buy will can download it game
$5 isn't asking much. You could pay for it to support people who make the content you want.
Agreed. Pay the good people for their work.
waiting game for steam :) and seing my libary hope (eng bad sorry)
Absolutely great VN!!!! and well worth the read.
but im not gonna lie, im saddened that this was a short vn. It had the makings of a much larger masterpiece, but it left so much unanswered.

Thank you as well for the support!
You know, I actually remember these two!
I always thought they were kinda odd for being in the game, but not really coming to the town proper, as far as I was aware, but now we know why, they were running from a king!
Very nice!
I applaud your attention to detail.
Ayo its out! LES GOOO
Ooooh cool!! Is this like, a finished project already?
This one is complete, yes~ Just a short story turned VN!
