...oh, hello there! It looks like you chose MY option.

Those three little interrogations got you curious, right? Well, I won't blame you, I would have done the same.

Sorry, there's no secret demon girl here. It's just me, the main writer/editor of this story, The Crimson Monarch.

"Why am I here", you ask? Well, my friend(s), I'm here to establish some ground rules, for anyone who would want to add their own paths to this story!

Don't worry, I'm not going to overwhelm you with a shit ton of rules that had to be followed like they were the 10 Commandments, but the ones I'll list here should still be taken into consideration when writing your own path, much like how I will also do the same when approving said paths or not.

Without further ado, the rules are:

1- Basic Rules of Conduct: Essentially everything that goes in the rules for writing in this site. (No **** ****, underage characters, etc.) Kind of a no-brainer, but I just felt like it still had to be addressed for starters.

2- Be Consistent: Everyone has their own way of writing, but when you add something to an already existing story, it's also Important to make sure that what your adding doesn't stick out to much. Some people place the characters' name before dialogue, use different signs to differentiate talking from thinking, etc. To be specific, for this story:

"This is talking" / 'This is thinking'/ {This is for the Ending Titles, if you get around it.}

(An example for the last one is at the very end, so keep going... :D)

3- Be Creative: For the writing itself, aside from making sure that the characters don't get too OOC (Out Of Character, for those who don't know...), I'm welcoming of all sorts of ideas and kinks(aside from a few that I'll talk about later.), so don't be afraid to have fun when coming up with your own path or branching out from an already existing one. Let that depraved mind of your go wild!

4- The EXCEPTIONS: This is the ONE rule that should actually be followed like gospel; kinks such as scat, nipple fucking, and anything that involves bodily modification... will be SHOT ON SIGHT. For anyone who like those things, I will not judge you (too hard), but I'm sorry. Those are simply big no-gos for me, so I won't add them here.

Aaaannnd that's pretty much it! For anyone whose reading this, I thank you for taking the time to do so.

For your time, I wish I could give a cookie, but... y'know... all I have are words here. So, as a consolation prize, you get MY ENDING!

Yay! That was... short. Very-fucking-short, in fact, but regardless of any of that, I think you've earned it, so go right ahead...
