VN Ren'Py Imperial Chronicles [v0.9.1] [Lazy Monkey]

[Filipis]

Until now the game is nice and all that, has a very serious problem with translations, but nothing that google lens can't solve. The only thing is that i'm still waiting for that "harem" thing to start. All i've done until now was fool arround, had to chose between interact with some characters over others (which is already a bad sign by itself), and now i'm about to get tied down, in the game.
So, is this tag ""harem"" just another word for the tag "cheating" in the dev's vocabulary? i would like to know bcs i've invested some good hours playing this, already, and i'm kinda tired of these false harems...
it's nice and all if he wants to follow the more realistic approach, i just don't want to see a harem tag where there isn't, anymore.

Harem will be one of the endings, it's practically a guarantee - but it will take time forming that harem. The MC still has to establish himself as the true king or emperor, before he can start a harem consisting of his sisters and mother.

Greetings everyone!

I recently started to rework & improve the English translation of Imperial Chronicles as a pet project of mine. With Lazy_Monkey 's blessing, I share the first part of the game (named Intro) with you in hopes of improving your gameplay experience and encouraging another replay!

In addition to the dialogue rework, missing scenes & dialogue was added, variable bugs fixed or cleaned up for a smoother and cleaner experience. This includes the "recap screens" which will also get fixed so that player choices are properly tracked & expressed.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoy working on it! 0.1 is currently underway, and will be published soon!

P.S.: If I missed anything at all, please let me know, and I will fix it ASAP!

The instructions on how to install everything is contained within the files. Enjoy!

12-05-2025-UPDATE: Packaged all the files necessary in a neat little folder with clear instructions on how to easily install the improved script files + added 0.1 content! Going forward, this attached folder will be updated with newer releases as I finish them, as well as this post to let you guys know.

Hi, I just saw the install instructions on the translation part of your mod. It seems the file structure is different in the game, so the instructions don't work properly and the game gives an exception as soon as launched. I've rearranged the files into a single game folder, so that it can be directly pasted into the game installation folder to replace the files without any instructions.

Great job with the translation by the way! Maybe you could just add your translations to this file structure for the following versions.. would be a more convenient install process with just 1 paste. Looking forward to the next versions!

I don't buy that impregnating Elin will bring doom or that the mirror thing is a bad thing. Maybe in the Power relationship dynamic, but otherwise it is quite disrespectful to Elis and Elin (and twins in general) that they are not their own person, and a pregnancy out of love should only be positive. If any single LI makes the most sense for Elis, it is Elin. Their love has been coming all their life. It would be very disappointing to put a stop to it.

And white coronation with fixing Cass (though I wonder how the vassals will take it) is the best path by a mile I shudder to think in particular of those who murder Cass. She is in love with Elis and is brutally murdered by the only person in the world she loved and trusted. I refuse to believe this path exists.

That would be true if their existence is completely natural, but all hints point toward one of the twins being "unnatural" in their existence, as if Seraphina's line was cursed (she is a twin herself) or she cursed somehow "cursed" her twins.

That's why the union between Elis & Elin could especially be catastrophic, let alone a fruit of that union.

I appreciate the help, but I purposefully wanted to consolidate the "intro" script files into a new folder. Yes, your method is technically easier, but replacing folders only partially can go wrong in a lot of ways, so I will continue to provide a more detailed method of replacing them in my OP.

Thanks for the support! I just want people to experience this world in the best way possible, and that means not letting AI mangle the story.

Bear with me, here, I have a theory why Elis impregnating Elin is really, really bad: Elin and Elis are two parts of the same soul.

In one of the White Blood visions, Elis sees a pregnant woman in front of a mirror: Is this showing a future Elin pregnant with Elis' child? I think it's showing the past, while the Queen was pregnant with Elin!

• While pregnant with her daughter, Seraphina made a deal with some elven moon goddess (moon is a reflection of the sun) - she wanted to bear a son to Regis, but was carrying a daughter instead - so the moon goddess split the child in two reflections (twins), a daughter & and now a son.
• This "miracle" resulted in the original soul of the child being split into two parts, one belonging to Elin, and the other going to Elis.
• Because they now share two parts of one soul, Elin & Elis are a lot closer than your usual twins, and would explain why Elin is so unnaturally attracted to Elis from birth - one half of the soul seeks the other half.
• Would also explain why Elin & Elis producing a child would be a terrible outcome - one of them was never meant to exist, and they both share a single soul.

The Ludwig cat says "he has a mistress tho, and want elis and him not talking each other again" ,before elis go to west, we still doesn't know who is she


Elis meet with The mysterious woman, and the woman says " trust our reflection"

The horse is kinda rude but he follow the order from mysterious woman



And next the cat says want to warn elis about meet with that mysterious woman but they already meet before elis get warned by that cat ( I don't think this cat is Ludwig) maybe the mistress



So maybe but maybe elin pregnancy will be okay ?



Mysterious woman and the cat is still unknown to us
