Sluggishly, he hosed off a Jarvis hand-held meat saw, grunting and huffing. Even for a Gila Monster his heavy body was large and rather plump.
His forked tongue slithered in and out of the purple gums of his wide maw; his short fat tail flicked back and forth in the powdery prairie dirt.
He faced the blazing sun perched on the western horizon. The cloudless sky had made the late-March evening warmer than usual, and the pinkish patterns of his mostly black beaded skin, covered with warty-like bumps, glowed even brighter in the cruel sun.
His pink belly glowing brightest of all.</span><span id="content12">(color: #720027)+(text-style: "outline")+(css: "font-size: .994em")[(color: black)[⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋]]

Diamondback squeezed hard.
"I love you, too." She fought back tears.
A blue, shimmering energy arose from the ground.
"I have no regrets." He cradled the back of her scaly head. "I wouldn't change a thing."
She wept quietly into his shoulder. "Me either."
In an enchanting dance the energy coalesced around them.
Then, like a fine dust, sprinkled back into the land.
"Promise me," he kissed her on the forehead.
"I... I promise."
"This is not the end, Diamondback, you'll see. Everything is going to turn out right as rain."

You begin as Silver Bear—a veteran of the War of Ten Dogs. Broken, with war-scarred mind, he has arrived at the border of the Windless Prairie, guided there by the spirit of Snapping Turtle, his friend killed in the war. Snapping Turtle saved Silver Bear's life; now the bear has come to the prairie to repay the life debt.
Gameplay is similar to a choose your own adventure in which you will be given multiple choices to select (mostly in the form of hypertext), and, depending on the choices you make, you determine the outcome of the story. <span class='glow6'>[[✦ continued...|Gameplay Continued]]</span></span><span id="content12">(color: #720027)+(text-style: "outline")+(css: "font-size: .994em")[(color: black)[⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋⛋]]

Jueyuan and his ten mongrel Generals have been defeated.
The veterans have returned home.
Many return to the city of Mythicus at the heart of the World Tree.
Others return to the Windless Prairie, or the southern border towns.
Guilt-stricken, wondering with every breath why they survived, and their comrades didn't?
But the war was not the only place to know suffering.
It was not the only place to know violence or bloodshed.
For there was much to be found elsewhere in the World Tree...
Those who lay curses will themselves be cursed.
Those who sow destruction will themselves be destroyed.
Those who invoke the Creator Spirit's wrath.
