Question about Cycle Syncing. Do you know where i can find, like a masterlist of food that fits into the steps of the cycle? I always see the same food but how abt the rest? Would be nice to know for example for meal building.

[ACT 1]
{On your way to the Favor Tree, you walk into Odile and ask if she wants to come along. She considers for a moment before agreeing, and following you.}
{You approach the Favor Tree.}
Odile 👓
The Favor Tree, huh… Isabeau showed me how to ask them for a favor a while ago. I take it that’s what you’re here for?
Mirabelle 🎀
That’s right! I know a lot of people already asked for Vaugarde to be saved, but I thought I’d ask too, since…
Odile 👓
Are you worried about tomorrow?
Mirabelle 🎀
Hmrgh…
{You nervously clasp your hands together. Odile looks up at the tree.}
Odile 👓
The Favor Trees aren’t really part of the Change belief, right?
Mirabelle 🎀
No… The Change God doesn’t grant favors. It’s more of a myth here in Vaugarde, but lately people have taken it more seriously because of the King…
{You take a breath.}
Mirabelle 🎀
Are you going to ask for a favor, Madame?
Odile 👓
Probably not… Forgive my pessimism, but I don’t see the point in relying on a mere myth.
Mirabelle 🎀
Oh…
{You both remain silent for a moment}
Mirabelle 🎀
Is there something you believe in?
Odile 👓
Religiously you mean? Well, in Ka Bue, we don’t really have Gods. They’re more like… Expressions? You’d pray to the ones you need the most currently in your life. I have been reaching out to the Expression of Battle and the Expression of Victory among others, for example.
Mirabelle 🎀
…Do you believe we will beat the King tomorrow?
Odile 👓
…Do you want my honest answer?
{You bite your lip. Odile looks to the ground. You don’t want to dwell on this.}
Mirabelle 🎀
Um, you know, Siffrin actually showed me how to wish on a tree once!
Odile 👓
Is that any different than asking for a favor?
Mirabelle 🎀
I think? You do it differently and he seems to believe in it more than most people…
Odile 👓
And how would that work?
{You smile, relieved that Odile goes along with the change in subject. You look around, pick up a leaf from the floor, and hold it up to show it to her.}
Mirabelle 🎀
First, you have to pick a leaf that represents yourself!
{Odile listens curiously.}
Mirabelle 🎀
Then you have to breathe your wish into the leaf three times and fold the leaf.
{To demonstrate, you hold the leaf close to your mouth and whisper.}
{You wish for the King to be defeated. You wish for all of you to make it. You wish for Vaugarde to be saved.}
{You fold the leaf, holding it like this for several moments, before letting it be carried away by a breeze.}
Odile 👓
Hm… I take it this isn’t a Vaugardian practice. Has Siffrin ever told you where they learned this ritual?
Mirabelle 🎀
They haven’t. But I thought it might be worth trying, seeing as he puts more faith into it, and I… I shouldn’t be saying this, I know it’s on me to bring about change, but I don’t think I can do this alone.
{Odile gave you a look and for a moment, you were worried she was judging you. Instead, her expression shifted into a smirk.}
Odile 👓
You’re not planning to go to the House alone, are you?
Mirabelle 🎀
HUH?!?
Odile 👓
Because unless you are, you aren’t alone.
Mirabelle 🎀
MADAME!!
{Odile laughs, and you sigh.}
Mirabelle 🎀
Don’t scare me like this again!
Odile 👓
I didn’t mean to. But it snapped you out of something, no?
Mirabelle 🎀
I suppose…
{She isn’t wrong. You feel… not calmer, but not as anxious either.}
Odile 👓
Now then,
{To your surprise, Odile picks up a leaf.}
Mirabelle 🎀
Are you going to make a wish?
Odile 👓
As you said, Siffrin puts more faith into it than Vaugardians have for the Favor Trees. No harm in trying.
{You watch as Odile repeats the ritual you showed her. You are a little curious about what she whispers into the leaf, but decide not to ask. After folding it, Odile lets go of the leaf, letting it fly off.}
Odile 👓
Now, I still have to stock up in the shop for tomorrow. I’d like to rely on more than a wish for us to make it to the King. I’ll be seeing you in the clocktower, Mirabelle.
{You nod with a smile.}
Mirabelle 🎀
I’ll see you then!
