Greetings to you all.
(Okay so this part will remain here since that was the real reason why I made this post, but I edited the rest. This ain't important to read, unles you feel like reading some boring intro xD)
It's been a while since I last posted here, so I decided to come back while I was having a lesson in history. I suddenly had a pretty nice idea for another small project.
Theme
This will most likely be a Defend the Spot on several spots, a lot of Build & Destroy as well. There will be some RPG elements in it, simply because I want them to be in it and because they fit
You can except easter eggs in this as well as some interesting plots that still fit in the storyline. The main part will be to explore the map and convince cities to help you in your revolt against Lord Lemétan. There are side-quests etc as well of course.
You can except some things you haven't seen before in here (or at least, that's what I hope)
The Crystal Chronicle Story
After a wild ride on your horse you arrive in the kingdom of Ebugard, ruled by Lord Lemétan.
The forest you were exploring weren't as safe as you hoped. While you and your brother were
looking for a tavern or inn to stay for the night and have a decent meal, bandits jump out of the trees
and attacked you. They left the two unknown men behind for dead. Fortunately for John and Sam Crystal,
a miller and his family lived nearby. He took care of the damaged bodies, waiting for you to revive.
While the Crystals were regenerating from your multiple wounds, the miller told you about the Kingdom of Ebugard
and it's ruler, Lemétan. Rumors of hate against the Lord reaches the ears of John. A smile appears on his face.
The Crystals are an ancient family who has a lot of power in Balans-Ydra, an Island not so far from Ebugard.
However, after a drama which crushed the power of the Crystals, they were sent in excile.
John wasn't really the type of guy who let things just happen. When he heard the Lord wasn't loved,
a plan formed in his head. As the ancient traditions say, you keep what you kill. So if he could
start a revolt against this Lord, he might be able to rule over Ebugard and take revenge on Balans-Ydra.
Just a month later, you and your brother fully restored from you wounds, and you thank the miller and his family.
The miller gave you some weapons to protect yourself along the way, cause they were unsure if they would be able to save you
the next time you fall into an ambush.
A bit later you find a crossroad. The sign said there was an inn nearby, so you and your brother decide to go to the inn,
to hear the latest rumors and buy some food for along the way.
Sam Crystal saw all the beer behind the bar and ordered two beers. You know how it goes. After one beer the next one follows pretty soon.
Since you were both drunk, you didn't notice the Tax-officer approaching the inn.
With a loud voice, the youngest brother, Sam Crystal insults the Lord ruling from his fortified Stronghold.
The guard of the Tax-officer heard you insulting his Lord and he draws his weapon. Drunk as you were you don't realise what you do.
Sam shot the guard with his bow. The Tax-officer saw that one guard couldn't bring you to reason, so he ran to the closest village
and alarmed the guards. When he came back, the two brothers just sat on the same spot, pretending nothing had happened.
The officer commanded the guards to arrest Sam Crystal. Quickly they un-armed him and took him away from John Crystal. Drunk as he was he didn't realise what happened.
The next morning you awake with a huge hang-over, just outside the inn. When you saw your brother didn't awake near you,
you realise what has happened.
full of hate you start an adventure throughout the kingdom of Ebugard, visiting one village after the other.
How hard can it be to start a revolt against a Lord who isn't really loved?
Time to find out...
