The Elders brought us to Watermill Rock to escape the terror of Narsis following the Oblivion Crisis. Ten years past they set off on a journey to bring us treasure and comforts. They bade us take care of each other and respect the bounty of this island which is to be our new home. They charged me, the oldest, in particular ...

The turbuluent first century of the Fourth Era is almost at an end. A party of Bretons is striving in vain to turn the desolate military stopover of Gorrister into a legitimate city. The Gorrister miners have finally acted on their threats to organize against their incompetent lawbringers, threatening to plunge the nacent city into chaos. Into this town wanders Tallest-Reed, an old Saxhleel woman with only one ambition: to find Watermill Rock, the island of her youth, which seems to have vanished off the face of Nirn like a dream.

Scavenging for valuables, she finds an artefact that seems to bridge the past and present: an Aldmeri calendar wheel that once played a pivotal role in her youth. Could this be the object that finally leads her home?

An Elder Scrolls fan-game, featuring an improved battle and skill system, set shortly after the events of the Oblivion crisis, both in High Rock and on the enigmatic island of Watermill Rock.

I'm trying out the 1.10 version of your game. So far I found a 'woeful claymore' that I can't equip. I managed to get out of the water but I can't speak to what I think would be the Sky I'm suppose to meet ? I can't leave the location either so what should I do ?
Oh, and when I try to open the skills menu I get an error:
Script 'Game_Actor 2' line 128: NoMethodError occurred. undefined method 'element_set' for NilClass.
I guess all this is because I haven't equipped the claymore (but it's dark grey in items and doesn't show up in the equip menu) ?
I like the idea of walking and swimming in the game so far (to end with a positive note)...

tfw you forget to reset starting conditions before putting up a download.
Download is fixed now.
I guess you got a sneak peak of Chapter 2.
So, like, remember when I was doing a replay of this and put it on hold? D: Well, I've finished the replay now and gotten the slightly "enhanced" ending. Very nice!

I can't help but wonder, during the part where
Reed starts telling her story and you need to basically "make shit up", do all of these choices have the same outcome or is there a "best" way to tell the story (so that maybe Melody won't figure it out or something like that)?

Just randomly started wondering about this.

There isn't a "best" way to the tell the story, but your answers are indeed saved for later ...
When is more of this happening?

Probably not for quite some time since this is taking a long time to make. :( I'm partway through the second mission of four for chapter 2. And lately I've been distracted making yet another prototype of Discrepancy.
Hello Gibmaker.
What to do or is it a bug?
In the end(?) of the game you been told to dive in the water and bring up the sword.Do you know where i am? I bring up the sword and gives it to him but he still tells me to give him the sword and the other man is blocking the way out.

D: How did that get in there? That's the next chapter but it's not done yet so it should prompt you to save and then stop. Which version are you using?

Anyway, you're basically at the end of what's made for now. You'll be able to load your last save file into the next chapter when it's done.
...how do I find the next chapter? :D

I don't mind testing content before it's complete. Or written.

Or before it exists.

One previous version I had accidentally uploaded without the setup to stop the game after chapter 1. But this version is gone. (Or it should be)

I would like the chapter to exist and be complete and written also.
Hello.
I played the 1 first chapter,but don`t seems to find my savefile(i have been loooking in app data... but no) but no problem.The game is so good and beautiful that i decide to play it all from start.
But when i enter Snowberry Woods and the fox comes so:Alot of text but second is :Script Game character 3 line 74 no method occurred.check event trigger touch feature Hellcast flock.Shadow ground.0x6b122c0.
If you need i can write down everything about it.Got a save just one second before.
You are doing a really good work with this.I really hope you finish all chapters.

Thank you for this bug report. I've put up a patch that fixes it (and also updated the main download).
Your saves from the old version have disappeared? They should be in the root directory of your copy of the old version.
Thank you for the feedback and kind remarks. :)


I find the savefiles.But when i copied in them and open the game:Alot of text :companion positions .no method error .undefined method,empty nilclass078.48 078.44 in map 184.94 in read save Data.Section 184 in on decision.--and more.
And:
script Game_Map 2 Line 48 no method error occurred undefined method empty? for nil NilClass
But when i take away the saves i can open the game as usual.If you want i can write down everything.
EDIA:But my save wasn`t from the really end because my version let me play a little longer than it should.But i`m gonna play a little more and make a new savefile closer the end.Maybe that solves the problem?I don`t know.
EDIT2: i got it ,it works now it seems.I saved a little bit closer the end and now it s fine.

Can you send me your save file that's breaking? I've tried to make it so that all old saves are updated properly so they don't crash.
Ok.i will try.now when i leave the scene when i take up the sword :script game overworld line 141.no method error occurred.undefined method x for nil Nilclass.
Alright, here I go. New patch applied, new game notes incoming.

-My god. That new opening. The transition from present to past feels a little too sudden of a shift in tone, but I really dig the opening.

-Walk feels powerfully slow. Can't find the run button, if there is one.

-Skills trees feel way better.

-Wound state seems to override immolate, which is a bit counter-intuitive.

-That gallery oh my god

I'm only an hour in and mostly retreading the same path, but I am still adoring this game. I'm glad there's a second episode, and I can't wait until I hit new content.

Glad you are playing :)

No run button. XP does not have such a thing.

No states actually "replace" others, although only one active animation can be showing at a time and some have higher priority apparently. I've never checked how RMXP decides which one to show, possibly it's just the most recent one inflicted.

I'm happy to hear that the gallery brings you pain! It brought me pain also. I hope the new content doesn't suck :)
Okay. Sitting down for another session.

PROGRESS HALTING BUG: Returning to the village after getting the tree from the hellcasts, we get the line of dialog "How late is it?" and then the game stops. Not a crash. Not a freeze. The game doesn't throw an error report. Controls don't work. Waiting doesn't fix it. I can't play past this point.

In case it somehow influences things, I got the rainbow moth dust before fighting the ogre for the first time, used it once against a hellcast, and then used it to end the second fight with the ogre. I have the driftwood and the acid cured silver. I got the spring water, but have not turned it in yet.
Also that gallery brings the opposite of pain. The 'my god' was at how many central characters there are going to be. Just the amount of portraiture is daunting. I am super in awe.

What :O

Can you send me a save file of just before this bug so I can check?

(And I figured it was a good "my god" I just like to make jokes. (: )
