Vapor and Salt, a new Qud interactive fanfic

[Ecta Foole]

Live and drink, friends! It's me, Caelyn, the progenitor of the hindren deer centaur race, interactive fiction author, and huge (if not skilled) fan of Caves of Qud. I've recently been playing the game a lot, and my efforts have inspired a new intfic set in the great salt desert.

You can play it for free at this link:
Vapor and Salt[inurashii.xyz]

Vapor and Salt is a sort of travelogue, with action and atmosphere, plenty of dialogue, and parasangs of sweet, sweet lore. In it, you can smash robots, form a new water-bond, and maybe even kiss a plant.

Want more? You may or may not have read my other works, including the now-somewhat-dated Hindren's Guide to Qud, which stars VaS's main character, Khashind:
a Hindren's Guide to Qud[inurashii.xyz]
...and my in-character anthropological article about the hindren:
Fauns of the Meadow: a Year with the Hindren[inurashii.xyz]

All three works are meant to be standalone, so you don't have to play the earlier ones to play the new one.

Hope you enjoy, and please leave a comment if you liked the story! Also, let me know if you can get all four endings, and which ones you liked the best! :)

I can only manage to find the shared water and the hero's welcome endings... :(. As much as I try, I can't find anything else... I see the flash of green, but I don't know how to do anything with it...

I'm considering lowering the threshold on attracting Leel because right now it's pretty hard. For now, though, try repeating conversational options with Oung where you see a positive response from Leel before looking at the green flash.

Hi, I can't get any of your links to work. Steam flags them as malicious and I can't work out how to type those hearts manually.

Thanks so much for the heads-up. I don't know why my personal site is getting blacklisted across the board like this, but I'm inclined to stop fighting it and move my stuff to itch.io. I'm mad about it though.

Stay tuned

It is obviously because the other sites salty about your salty vapours.
