The Story of Hanna

AUTHOR'S COMMENTS

I have always been a fan of Japanese adult games, and to lesser western independent adult game developers. They rarely feel to me like pornographic works with some expendable story on the side, and instead feel more like proper stories with porn in them. I have always had my own ideas about what kind of games I would personally like to create. Alas, I can't make games, but anyone can write. Even me, barely. This is one of those stories, a story I want to tell you.

The played main character is a man from our world, who in his second life is born in a medieval fantasy world as a girl, and not only as a girl either, but as a true blueblood royal. For one reason or another, she regains some of her memories from her past life, which greatly influences not only her life and personality, but later also the very world around her. Entire story is written from the perspective of this one girl and in second person, with no exceptions. I have tried to fully write it in present tense, and switch to past tense when talking about past, but I might not be very consistent with these rules since I'm not used to writing in English. Since it's a work in progress, all chapters, even those with all of its content and routes completed, are subject to change.

Expect both consensual sex and rape, almost exclusively with males. Played character mostly takes a submissive role with very few exceptions. Partners are often humans, but there are many kinds of monsters, both realistic and unrealistic, and tentacles as well. Also expect bad ends and tragedy. I do not want to rule out any kinks or fetishes, but don't expect watersports or scat. There will also be some non-pornographic content as well, including lore, which oftentimes doesn't have anything to do with sex.

((If you see a sentence such as this in double brackets, it's an out-of-character comment from the author. They're always intended to be for the reader as a real person, never to played character. You will find them lying around mostly in information pages and such, and sometimes (rarely) as a disclaimer in story if you've gone down or are about to enter a path towards a bad end. Don't except too many of author comments in the actual story though.))

While some names and places bear a resemblance to historical Europe - with Albion being loosely based on Britain, Gallia on France and Kalmar on united Scandinavia - this story does not attempt to be set in a realistic setting. Similarities to existing places, past and present, are in name only and are used to inspire this fictional universe rather than to copy the real world. Characters presented in the story are not modeled after real people either.

CONTRIBUTOR'S GUIDELINES: While I am confident in my English, I'm not a native English speaker, and probably make a lot of mistakes. That's why everyone is welcome to correct spelling mistakes and grammar. If you find a sentence that doesn't make sense, something that is poorly explained, or text that contradicts what I've written on some other page, let me know and I'll look into it. Suggestions for routes are also welcome.

CURRENT PROGRESS: "Memoirs" aka chapter zero and chapter one are done and fully published, with an exception of a side path which leads to a story where Hanna gets detained by authorities. I've mapped most of second chapter - which will be shorter and less ambitious than I initially planned it to be - and I've written a solid amount of content for this chapter as well. Most of the second chapter is not connected yet, and I've got work to do before I can publish anything new. Expect slow progress. I'm also rethinking my philosophy regarding bad ends, and the way I want to handle Hanna getting into trouble. I'm not abandoning the idea of "Game over" completely, but I want to explore some of the bad ends further, with even possibilities of Hanna getting out. Basically, I want to milk these "bad ends" by not making them feel like the end to the story. Overall, the story will probably have three or four chapters in total, not including "Memoirs".

MEMOIRS OF PRINCESS HANNA

Conventional wisdom dictates that as the youngest of six children you should've been singled out from the group by both your parents and your siblings, both in good and bad, but that rarely was the case. Not that you care. You have always been a nonconformist anyway. You are refined in your etiquette, you move and talk like a princess, referring to yourself in third person and all, but you never REALLY cared about being princess, or rules of the nobles for that matter. You were, however, determined to prove them all wrong and make them recognize you. You know you are an insane genius, a prodigy of alchemy unlike anything the world has seen in decades or even centuries. It doesn't matter that you're a girl, or that you're small and insignificant, a helpless weakling that can't fight or cast complex spells. You can never actually wield a crown or rule a kingdom you're born a royal in. You can't even rule over a man in a marriage, but none of that matters. You have a talent. A secret weapon, to be exact. Little did you know, however, that using that talent to bring worth your greatest creation yet would trigger a chain of events that would change not only your life forever, but the fate of the kingdom of Nova Albion as well.

You are Hanna, and this is the story of your life and an adventure you never expected. I mean, how could you? You were living such a comfortable life as a princess. Now, it's all in the past, and there is no way back to your past life. Where did it all go wrong?

• Let's find out. ((Chapter Zero. A prequel to "The Story of Hanna". A story about the most important events of Hanna's early childhood, as well as events leading to main story. This, unlike the main story, is a traditional story with no routes or choices to be made. It's also ALMOST exclusively vanilla, so don't expect most of the story codes to apply to this part of the story.))
