Changelog

• The pre-temple opening of the game has been completely redone. Pick between bespoke new premade choices or a custom character builder, meet a new character, and meet a more tolerable Sam. Female Sam only; male Sam has been completely removed.
• The temple has gotten minor updates, making it possible to skip some text, taking out some lower-quality stuff, and adding a bit more.
• Sarah and Ashley temple scenes now have their own CGs! Minor updates to the scenes as well.
• The game now has a LOT more backgrounds; temple is unchanged but the forest and home scenes, camp, and Badon now have proper art.
• Amnelis sprite courtesy of Coubalt. Knight-Commander Selendis art courtesy of jfc!
• Amnelis theme and Sofra normal/battle themes all by Ubercrow! The temple boss also has a new theme, courtesy of The Mad Duck
• 4 entirely new weapons - Greataxe, Dual Daggers, Mana Blade, Longbow, each with unique playstyles. Almost every old weapon has been heavily reworked as well! Earth magic got a major revamp too. About 300 new abilities and ~100-150 reworked ones in total.
• A new set of no-requirement channels, so non-mages have good access to buffs, and new Reaction system which lets you reflexively block, counterattack, or evade attacks for a certain duration or use count.
• Significant improvements to much of the progress menu UI, showing much more info about abilities
• Around 15-20 ish traits, some for existing weapons, some for new/magic
• New Metatron 12-affection scene, covering the aftermath of her first lewd. More to come~
• Camp scenes now have normal/faded icons to show if they've been watched or not.

As always, there may be more updates as bugs are reported, please let me know if you find anything!

After this chonky opening/mechanics update, I'm going to focus HARD on the writing/plot aspects for several updates - look forwards to a lot more Deepwoods, character arcs, monster girls, and progression coming soon!
