Mahad Selak, Mahad Maktar

I'm writing about Magium. 

If you are a fan of the book/game, then I suppose you've heard about it.

If you're just hearing about this now, then you were like me ten minutes ago.

I was randomly browsing Reddit and I saw a post in the Magium sub. 

I couldn't believe it.

The author has passed away, as confirmed by his mother and his brother on Reddit.

I picked up Magium late 2010s, I think? I'm not really sure on the exact date. I had it downloaded months prior when I was on a mood just playing CYOA games. Once I started during the pandemic I couldn't stop, and then I had the idea of making a walkthrough because the ones I found on the Internet were a little fragmented. 

I'm an Eiden girl and I disliked Barry at times. I liked how the universe was built... and I also had an idea what the nature of the Magium was before it was explained. 

I liked spinning Arraka's chain. Did it multiple times because it was just so fun.

I had actually worked on the rest of the walkthroughs for Book 3, but I was stuck on a couple of achievements, which is why I haven't published them yet. I promise I will finish them soon after my current project is done.

RIP Cristian. Thank you for the wonderful universe you gave us.

P.S. His mom had access to some of his earlier work and she's posting them on the Magium subreddit so I suggest you check it out here.
