New Story?

Tempered by Fire is about to end and I'm not feeling quite ready to jump immediately  into the sequel, so it's time to hold a new poll and decide on my next project!

This is a Patreon Exclusive poll, which means what wins here goes. But I have learnt from past mistakes and giving too many options, so it'll be a two-round poll. This first round will allow multiple choices and will serve to narrow down the most popular options. After the vote is over, a second round will be made including only the top 3 options to pick the actual winner. This second round won't allow for multiple choices.

All the stories in the list are things I feel ready to turn into a full-size story and you can get a sneak peek on all of them but the original ones in my snippets thread in QQ. The prologues of 'Koumori Haru' and 'World Invader Momo' were made available in my last Patreon post while 'A Slime's Story' is a last-minute entry. I'll add a synopsis for the three of them here anyway:

Koumori Haru and the Soulstone Shards Is the story of three magical girls vying for a rare magical resource in an urban magical girl fantasy setting. Follow Koyuki Shirozora's efforts to awaken her true self, the fumbling first steps of Urchin as she rises from a cradle of dirt and junk, and Haru's master plan in the name of the mysterious Demon King.

World Invader Momo: Exiled Sakura Tells the story of Momoko Shimada's first adventure. Follow our humble flawless secretary in her new job as a world invader. Monsters, magical artifacts, fantasy races, heroes of myth and even gods will stand in her way as she tries to do her job and stop an idiotic main character from destroying the world.

A Slime's Story Tells the story of a peculiar slime that's contracted by a young boy as a guardian beast. Can the weakest of monsters really help this boy achieve his dream of cultivating the nine truths of reality and defy the Heavens? Adventure, combat, struggle, betrayal and a dark and unwelcoming world that will test the protagonists' optimism at every corner.
