Ashbella and The Criminal

73ashbellaCouldn’t quite get Steve’s story but I knew it likely went a lot deeper than what I was getting from it so I sort of took the idea of a criminal and matched to it an antagonist that I shamelessly named Ashbella (cinders, you know?). What’s neat about this story is that at the get-go each character developed a need and the story was that naturally they had to meet.
So I played tricks again with the Title and that allowed two beginnings. The middle can be a direct route of five links, or it can weave around to give more details and run maybe a dozen spaces. There are four endings to this one, though in real life, a single click can bring you into infinite possibilities.

One thing that made me laugh just as I exported this and ran a quick check: The ‘back home’ and ‘back to start’ code was not available on all four end spaces. It took me a few minutes of checking code to realize that the problem was in the css sheet. I’d coded the color of the background of the box as the ‘visited’ link! But that is something to keep in mind for use in future stories.
