Thank you everyone for the support! It’s good to see that there are like-minded individuals who enjoy sensible and respectable crux erotica for fantasy. Special thanks to mp5stab for encouraging me to revive this thread and turn 3-year old recycled renders into a new 400 page story.
I hope the choice of ending didn’t ruffle too many feathers. It’s the ending I’d envisioned since I started working on it. The villain or antagonist gets away, as is often the case in our real world. So I made it so in this fantasy as well.
To clarify a few items:
-Laelia was exiled to the north as per the magistrate’s orders. My decision to have her pregnant served to emphasize her mortality with a ‘parting gift’ from the Roman legionary executioners. She had convinced herself of her own divinity since the beginning, but now as she was alone, hungry, cold, and pregnant, I wanted to highlight her mortality in that she was taken that night. Now she is pregnant and has to come to terms with reality. Maybe.
-Cassia was taken down to be Constus’ bed slave. I’m strongly considering a quick 30-page spinoff with this thread.
-The fourth woman to be buried by the Scythians was Mila. She had her legs broken to make way for the disciples.
-With Laelia’s impending motherhood, I had envisioned a possible sequel wherein her misguided twin daughters seek to avenge their mother’s alleged divinity once they both come of age at 21 years.
Again, thank you for all tue support and feedback. I’m glad the forum enjoyed
