06:03 | Had to restart once at 06:30. Must have misdone something somewhen.

Leopold wanted firearms, privately. Rue wondered where Silas was, mentioned Gwen was waiting for him at his stall. Played with Evie and Gwen. Got informed about tax from Casimir. Witnessed Elliot and pole climbing contest.

((I am thoroughly wondering if the reason why I am not interested in POV8 is because I already know at least 80% from other POVs. Like, I am not learning nothing, but I guess I really am not that invested in Silas’ revenge story.))

Played “one word at a time to make a story” with Evie (who was with Dahlia), attracted Dr. Robin’s attention. Played “game of mind” with Dr. Robin. (I.e., follow the cup.) Played both with Dominguez. Played both with Rue, who was brought by Dahlia.

Good morning to you too Zoney

Good morrow Silviu.

List of POVs and Episodes

Quick talk with the moon at wall (with Lucien’s permission) before going to bed at merchant house. It’s weird how Silas sounds like a moon cultist without specifying anything about Mother of the Moon. I wonder where his beliefs came from– anyhow, moving on to POV10 E10.

I’m gonna watch Thomas Moire’s POV first. I don’t think they will be logged, and they are nearly expired. High Priest and Council Cadwell Ashworth sent priests and protector to fort. ((Apparently the name of the country is New Gallion, not Gallean.))

I find most tablets are a pain to swallow without water.

Walked to the fort with Jebadaiah during the heavy rain, unamused by the priest’s constant chatter. ((Can’t really handle that character.)) Tom claimes unable to win against bear. ((Actor is really friendly, so the whiplash from the contrast is big.)) Entered fort.

Stiorra avoid Tom. Met Thaelin and Roland. ((I’m never going to be able to differentiate Roland and Maxwell, so I’ll just default to Roland.)) Went to tavern, got stared at due to own appearance. ((Internal voice and actual speech is very contrasting. Chat loved it! Is funni IMO.))

Eat soup with straw. ((Hates soup.)) Plan: Meet up with local authorities, set up church, check up on vagabonds. ((This POV is really funny af. The man’s scary on the outside, but is normal on the inside so far.)) Acquainted with merchant Silas, introduced self as censor of the church.

Acquainted with Private Emanuel Paine, has only worked at fort for seven days. ((Oh, huh. So he’s been at the fort literally since E1.)) Asked about state of affairs, got told fort is under siege, internally thought from bears.

At guard building, found Thaelin talking with Justin and Nathaniel, got acquainted with the two guards. Got Thaelin to have the guards lead to get first impression of the land. Explained chat about Church of the Father and the Offered Son. Father offered son on altar to bring salvation to humanity. “Old school Catholic.” ((
sounds like a religion about early biology IYAM.))

Noticed Bracken, did not like anyone taller than self. Very self-conscious of people staring at self. Noticed mercs, and thereby the existence of guild. At site, planning to repurpose wood structure to build church. Wanted higher place to oversee fort, but had to concede that place to the guards.

Still at site, Casimir asked if any had letter to send. (He be courier.) Went to tavern to talk with local authorities. Stare contest with Branwen. Noticed coven operating out in open. If council know → Anarchy. Tom not telling high priest, because Tom has own agenda related to a journal and going south.

Jeb hyping up Tom to Declan. ((LMAO, Tom modest, but Jeb not.)) Acquainted with Dominguez, whose father was a priest. Love Thaelin honesty about Theo discomfort at Tom’s mask. Met Solomon (meeting finally finished), new meeting with Solomon, Dane, and churchmen. High priest instructed Thaelin to make church post-haste.

10 pcs for each help each day. Acquainted with Commissar Tetch, Maxwell Culper, Lumi Blackwood. ((Visual bug actually increased immersion, lol.)) Searching for merchants with firearms, Thaelin knew none, so will write to church. Wanted to go south with guildsmen, but denied by Solomon.

Wondered how far was “infiltrated by coven”. ((Y’know, it’s rather impressive how much my opinion has changed about the coven once I knew more about the situation. Initially I had the same thoughts as Tom, but now I know that the coven is not a threat to the fort 
and if they are, then it’s nowhere as immediate as the monsters that lurk south.))

Acquainted with Dr. Finley, got invited to clinic. Tom switched tactic from likeable to respectable and fearsome. ((BGM adaptation is great, really on point.)) Informed of chute where bodies were dumped to be burned, lest they become monsters. Informed of dead sister (i.e., Anne), and the blight.

Got shown upstairs and laboratory. Tom wanted to aid Dr. Finley, got vials to sample the blight. Notified Dr. Finley about needing regular medical checkups for Tom’s infliction (Devil’s fever). Placed to backroom. Tom searched for place to store journal. ((So he has one as well
 but what are its contents?))

Fermi Question of the Day: “How much revenue in US dollars did OpenAI make in the first half of 2025?”

:arrow_up::white_check_mark:

Tom wanted to know what happened to Blackwell, and why the churchs was ignoring it. Want justice if corruption exist. Informed Dr. Finley about Devil’s fever when Tom was a boy. Fingers, many upper halves, not present. Outer layer of skin are scarred. Missing nose.

Left clinic. Relief of actual doctors’ presence. Went to tavern (despite not liking tavern), wanted information about fort from Ambrose, who knew not much about it. Got informed surface knowledge about Blackwell, ashpeople, cursed bones, E1 exile requirement to return. Gave a few pcs as reward to Ambrose.

Met up with Jeb again (parted ever since going to clinic). Plan: More contact with guild. Acquainted with Francis Thorne. Got invited to guild building with Thaelin, got lost. Fed raven. About to be brought to guilds building by Dominguez, when southern expedition group returned with injured. Heard howl. Checked up at wall, no monster in sight.

They should add the Hades II soundtrack to Apple Music. “Olympus Aflame” is likely one of my T3 most-listened-to songs this year.

I’m noticing a trend here.

That trend is overestimating the average person’s integrity.

Priest meeting at Thaelin’s room. Informed Thaelin and Jeb about censor’s role; remove political and religious corruption. Tom proposed [good cop, bad cop] to Thaelin. Thaelin attached Jeb to Tom, to Tom’s internal dismay. :joy_cookie:

Acquainted with Cassandra Dalesmen, who had closed the gate. Notified Justin (and Cass) that Edward, Logan, and Dorothy went to the north. Justin informed Joshua, Allison, and Paine. Guards (Joshua and Allison) and censor planned to go north. Advised by DM to not venture out of fort. Compromise attempt: Not venture too far from fort. Captain / Lieutenant told Justin to tell group to go back, Edward’s group was allowed to go, they were safe. Conclusion: Venture denied. :pensive:

Went to tavern, took off cloak and headgear to dry them. Jeb informed the findings of a corpse. ((From Edward’s group.)) Introduced self and Jeb to Blacksmith Shane Woodson, who was searching for glass to repurpose into lanterns. Informed about merchant building. Jocelyn interested in church’s beliefs.
