ohhhh i am so so excited!! Viatica is easily my favorite IF and I absolutely love what I've played of this one so far. So so so lovely, cannot wait to play more!
Side note, when I first opened it up the music actually scared the shit outta me for no reason 😭 had my computer volume on high and I js wasnt expecting it💔
Hi Medusa, I remember you from Viatica! You gave me the idea to use the name Starling for a character. ☺️ Thank you for returning and giving Cantata a try!
Finished ch1, absolutely amazing but also shame on you for not developing time travel powers to finish it NOW 😡
The world you've developed here is fascinating, there are so many stories I've read with magic but never where the magic was attuned to voices. Really looking forward to learning more about our MC's culture as we watch them grow! And- most importantly- meeting our fur baby 🥹
I do have a question though. I understand hiding our voice by pretending to be mute, but why are we also pretending to be deaf? Is it bc we have better sense of hearing and we'd give it away accidentally?
being just mute might be a little too hard to believe and likely would be seen as an obvious tactic to not answer questions. being deaf and mute as a result of being deaf is far more believable. just my thoughts!
Yep, this is it exactly. Pretending to be deaf on top of being mute is like an extra precaution, you’re basically covering all bases. It’s well known that the Iredicci have excellent hearing, so say someone notices you can hear a noise from far away, but you don’t speak, it will raise suspicions.
It's likely in part due to it being a little late, but the aftershock of the burning made me tear up. It came as such a contrast with the earlier writing while still being written with such a similar sensitivity. So I didn't have time to process it, paired with the good imagery and pacing - I really did feel slightly overwhelmed. Very nice start
No, cause how come I just replayed Viatica again, and then decided to go to bed, woke up to an email "Fir & Fireweed has released a new game". I LOVE THIS SO MUCH, i can't express enough my love for your writing, it's just magic. pure and utter magic. i enjoy writing myself so even just from that stand point, it's great, but as a fan of your previous work, this is truly a great way to start this year. again thank YOU for this. xx much love
Oh wow, thank you!! That’s such a fantastic compliment! I can’t wait to share this story with you. This will be a neat experience because it’s basically unfolding as I write it, and I love sharing that journey. ☺️
I just finished chapter 1 and I am SO excited to see this story unfold. The world and characters are already so interesting and charming! I'm also super excited to see the RO artwork!! I loved Viatica and I'm sure I will love Cantata just as much! Can't wait to go on this amazing journey with everyone!
This is such a fascinating setting, with interesting powers and omg the people?? I'd buy the entirety of the game rn based solely on the first chapter. Lovely work!
Well now, when you mentioned you were already working on something after Viatica i had high hopes, you knocked those hopes out of the water!
Only one chapter and i'm already looking forward to seeing what becomes of our mc and the world at large, i'm looking forward to the next chapter already
AHHHHH! It's finally out! I'm so happy you decided to create another IF, which of course is already amazing with the first chapter. With this being something you're making as you go, instead of with a base story like Viatica, I can't wait to see where you'll go with this and the ideas you'll come up with. I'm sure you're already loving the codex, stats, and save features 😂
I especially can't wait for the RO art so that I can see Corinne in person 💜

I just realized I missed replying to this, I had a lot of wonderful comments to sort through. 😅
Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed the writing!

Hello! I have it linked on my Fir & Fireweed creator page, but here it is: https://www.tumblr.com/fir-fireweed

Y’all forget I’m a 40 something suburban mom 🤣🤣🤣 I’m continually running to my kids with these references and saying “translate this!”
But thank you!

Thank you, I’m glad you’re excited! Honestly I was worried about the reception for this one. Viatica was a hard act to follow. 🥴
Omg, I cannot wait to share the artwork! The final line art is done and they look AMAZING! Just waiting on color now.
This is such a fascinating setting, with interesting powers and omg the people?? I'd buy the entirety of the game rn based solely on the first chapter. Lovely work!
Thank you so much!!
"Save a wild animal from a hunter’s trap and gain a steadfast companion. Because fur baby."
Literally all I needed to know. SOLD!
Hahaha, I love me an animal companion, too! I wanted to do ALL the things here I couldn’t do in Viatica. 😁
Well now, when you mentioned you were already working on something after Viatica i had high hopes, you knocked those hopes out of the water!
Only one chapter and i'm already looking forward to seeing what becomes of our mc and the world at large, i'm looking forward to the next chapter already
Thank you! I can’t wait to show you! Updates will be slower than Viatica but I am committed to this new story!
So excited for this! Thank you so much!
It’s my pleasure! Thanks for being so supportive of my new IF!
Congratulations on the release!! I've been really waiting for your second IF, as I really like Viatica. Congrats!! <3
Thank you, I hope you enjoy it!!
