Festival Alt: Chloe

First Festival Alt is done! Go enjoy the festivities with Chloe!

Took me forever to finally finish a picture I felt good with! Still feeling a bit insecure but oh well!

This Alt comes with a bit of a lore drop about Verenne, too. I've added the starter to all the platforms that allow alt greetings, and made it its own bot on JAI. I still need to experiment with condensing stuff for JAI...

Lorebook getting more content, Festival Alts in Progress

Working on the next Lorebook update today. I've already written a new Readme, tightened up the Genre Trigger entry a bit, and put the global lore in there.

Also resorted the entries. And am now really dreading the upload on Chub because it does NOT respect my entry sorting. I'll have to fix that upon upload by hand. 🥲

Dividers are back to make the lorebook easier to read and troubleshoot for humans too. Added Magic and Tech-Level snippets to the regional entries, Tech-Level is already done for every modularized region (Verenne, Rhyddel, Gebein), Magic only for Rhyddel so far. Before I next update, I'd like to add these bits for Verenne and Gebein, too.

I realized that I forgot an entry for Fifi! D: It's already written, I'll stuff it into the lorebook with the next update. Ideally, I'd like to finally get the servants and knights of the three main regions done already. Considering how to keep teeny tiny NPCs small but recognizable in the lorebook, like Demeter and Melissae from Chloe's opener, or Captain Leucos from Boreas'.

I think Saucepan will be left a bit behind in these. The lorebook system there does not currently blend well with my style, which is completely fine and understandable. But it also means I might keep it on 3.1.0 for a while to come or update it to only 3.1.1 by adding Eos and Fifi into it.

Anyways, did you know that the street festivals from Otome Isekai comics and webnovels are actually inspired by a real tradition and celebration? On the 7th of July, many South Korean places apparently celebrate that kind of festival - with street vendors and game booths and fireworks at night!

So I want to try and get some new Openers out there! The Festival Alts! Or at least one Festival Alt haha!

Currently trying different methods of drawing the cover image but... nothing clicked yet. Weh!

Oh well! You'll see on the 7th if I managed!
