By the way, if you want to immerse yourself in the atmosphere, since the game currently has no audio, I recommend having this playing in the background while you read:

Far better than I expected, I like it a lot.

I saw a couple of typos.
Recieve/d instead of receive/d

Verbage instead of verbiage

The argument with the faux Adeptus Mechanicus front desk member makes this game worth it already if you are, willingly or unwillingly involved with bureaucracy and organization power games.

The decadent society ruled by oppresive, corrupt, sluggish and inefficient bureacracy where the only chance for the intelligent and hard working but poor and/or unconnected people is to become a cog in said bureacracy, having to deal with all the corrupt idiots inside which were able to join only because of corruption, is perfectly captured here. The Imperium Eterna approves.

I think a corruption-meter would be a great addition to the game, hidden or not, representing Chaos corruption by decisions which are wrong in the eyes of the Emperor, progressively influencing the game conversations and outcomes.

Deep Lore question here I know most Sisters die in their tenure to the Orders they are part off. But some must also be able to leave and get married right?
Correct. Especially a weak charity order like Syrene's, they're too decentralized to stop them - they rely on their sisters' virtue and faith to stay on the line (which is, to be fair, a good bet to make). The Sisterhood Orders have even started evolving in different directions as central authority has waned over the last millennia, so some just straight-up allow marriages a
Bureaucracy? That's some good heresy to get me going.
The greatest horrors are made by Man, after all...
Guys we just got our first mention of the Great Enemy in this update. Even if it is only a shade



Did you think we wouldn't notice that?
Good eye, and I was hoping you would... more to come. It'll get weird. Get ready to abandon what you think you know.

FORTRESS UNBARRED: There's a hole in the canvas where the crown should be singing. How far can a body crawl from the guillotine, o blood cell?
Could be a good game without porn tbh maybe...
Thanks! After many more updates I plan to make a no-NSFW version of IBH, then run the two in parallel (and post that version in other sites...).
Looks at tags and sees AI CG.

Looks like we have a Heretek here using Abominable Intelligence.
The Abhorrent Thinking Machines have proven quite useful... I am seduced by their power, I can no longer really call myself an artist. Something different, something evolved, something modern in all its horror.
According to Mori, the AI Art is only here as a placeholder.
The AI stuff is here to stay, I'm afraid. All the not-a-background stuff can be reverted to the original non-AI version, at least.
Your Body Betrays Your Degeneracy.

This game has a huge influence from Disco Elysium and I fucking love it.
Fuck yes. I played DE exactly once, years ago, at the sickest point in my entire life, and it fried my brain and permanently rewired my neurons to the point where I can capture its vibe even today.

Thanks, and thanks again. Fuck. I think I fixed those with this update.
Hey Dev, I really enjoyed this game so far. Thanks for making it, I think you're doing a great job!
Thank you! And thank you for playing it.
A rare I am glad to have found. Thank you for creating this, Dev!
Thanks! I gotta work on finding ways to let more people find this game...

Gofile download gives virus alert.
I swear, I haven't uploaded any new viruses to my game since the last update. Ren'Py games constantly trigger false positives, something in the python scripting...

For peace of mind, though: I downloaded the file off GoFile, ran it through VirusTotal.


Only 2/43 vendors flag as malicious. The first, Jiangmin, has many google results about false positives and isn't highly regarded; the second, Kingsoft, I also found this recent Renpy startup file run through VirusTotal that shows Kingsoft flagging it for the same exact (nonexistent) "trojan".


Major scanners like Malwarebytes, Microsoft, etc run clean.
