Artie and Theo had gone back into the water to get Finny. Maybe he thought he'd been left behind, and they had to reassure him they wouldn't do that? 🤷🏻♀️
Finny might have thought he was a goner for sure this time, but Oliver hugs Finny to thank him. Theo isn't wasting much time and gets to thinking about the jars of organs, perhaps the fact they don't have them anymore. What are they going to use as evidence, if they get to the authorities?
Theo says something else, then they look back to the orphanage.
Finny looks at the nearby windpump and is reminded of when he and Snake arrived. Then he starts to cry.
The chapter isn't over just yet. Ultimately, I hope Finny and the others figure out a way to break the windpump and flood the underground facilities, along with any staff that might still be down there.
Apr 17 - meant to resume scanning today but FR released a new dragon breed today; spent most of my time anticipating the patch, waiting through the patch, and then happily figuring out and gening up my first few Dusthides.
Nephew made a big salad for supper, with chicken strips and toasted almonds for protein.
When will we ever find out if the kids can flood the facility, destroy it in some other way, or even save anymore of the children? Not this month, and probably not for several months to come.
Because we get a cliffhanger, just like at the end of Baldo and Lau's mission. 😭
We return to Lau's Opium den, where their clothes have been repaired and cleaned, so Seb is removing the Chinese outfit he'd borrowed and putting on his usual butler's uniform. Sorry, but there's no fan service for the Seb simps, unless you are into what's not shown... or gloved hands.
Ran-Mao and other ladies from the establishment show up with several boxes of clothes and at least one box with a hat, maybe two. One hat is from Lock & Co. Hatters, on St. James Street, in London. The rest comes from Hopkins, so that means Nina's still helping them.
They need fresh clothes for their upcoming mission to the resort hotel in Brighton. Sebastian goes to his young master's room to get him ready for travel. Our earl asks something about the clothes from Nina. Or about Nina herself.
I don't know what all they say, but Sebastian does point out that the kid's current outfit reeks of opium (which would never do for where they are headed).
So, time to change clothes. I think we've seen scenes like this a few times throughout the series. It's very methodical and almost ritualistic. In a way, for demon and master, it is a sort of ritual, though.
Are his short pants slightly longer now? 🤔
And off they go.
So! It looks like we are going to Brighton next month, after all.
I was right we'd get the kids struggling to reach the river. Anyone who guessed we'd cut to our earl and Sebastian starting their mission was also right.
A whole new scenery next month.
But when will we ever get back to Finny... or Baldo?
Heya, how are you we doing today? Hope you all had a fantastic day so far! I sure did! ^^
So a new season started! The Season of Passage, finally a season that takes place in Isle of Dawn again. Been a while since Prophecy.
The entire isle will be shrouded in nighttime. Genuinely gorgeous how they took an old area and made it look so lively again. ^^
The first quest is simple. The Questgiver wants to start a rite that requires multiple lamps to be set up. They are spread out across the main area and easy to get to. When the lamps are set up, four teens arrive at the guide, probably ready to start the rite of passage. It's quite an adorable sight, seeing them so eager to start it. ^^
After the first quest the entire area will host a social gathering, similar to AURORA. So there will be a ton of shades roaming around, each representing a player. Nice to see the devs make use of this feature more often! ^^
The four teens also come as spirits you can relive. They are called Melancholy Mope, Oddball Outcast, Overactive Overachiever and Tumbling Troublemaker. They are actually quite a funny bunch. So lively and full of mischief. They get in a lot of trouble, I can already tell. X]
They also have some really adorable cosmetics and emotes. I already fell in love with the somersault emote. It's so incredibley cute! :D
Can't wait to see what future quests hold. Two weeks until the next one. I will definitely see...
Oh wait Days of Nature starts on thursday. Guess I will see you then actually. Hope you have a good day! ^^
