Pon Para II

Chosen by the gods, betrayed by your king—only you can stop the Scorpion!

This epic 742,000-word interactive fantasy novel, "Pon Para and the Unconquerable Scorpion" (the sequel to "Pon Para and the Great Southern Labyrinth"), by Kyle Marquis, is a text-based adventure fueled by your imagination. Your choices shape the narrative.

Philosopher witch Teijia unleashes a devastating new weapon: a scorpion-god whose venom threatens to unravel reality itself. As the world teeters on the brink of collapse, the Stormraiders make a final, desperate bid for power.

This time, you'll need more than faith and friends; you'll need an army! Rise as a warlord, crime boss, or divine leader, traversing oceans and deserts to find the weapon capable of defeating the Unconquerable Scorpion.

Reunite with old allies and adversaries: Melaxu, the nymph philosopher; Tamur, the Desert Empire spy; and the formidable Stormraiders, Galimar and Gisla. Face the demands of your rulers, King Hyras and the Desert Empress.

New heroes and threats await. Recruit Col, the satyr general, and his ward, Clannath, a crow-woman cursed by the God of Rage. Claim territory, protect your followers, and navigate the ambitions of both dark and heavenly priests who view you as a heretic.

King Hyras and Lord Vankred clash in a final showdown, but Teijia's ultimate weapon, the Emissary Beast Magdala (the Unconquerable Scorpion), threatens to destroy the very foundations of the World That Remains. Can you stop a creature designed to be unstoppable?
