Sometimes it's good to talk Story: With the glyph of Veilbrand Surge still glowing faintly above your Codex, you turn to the Guardian of Balance, who has silently observed your ritual. His eyes gleam with interest, and he inclines his head as you approach. You speak your question aloud: “This new fusion spell… could it affect sealed wards in the Elemental Temples?” The Guardian nods slowly, hands folding into his sleeves. “Yes,” he replies. “The Veilbrand Surge is more than a weapon—it is a harmonic key, a reflection of balance between might, healing, and truth. The wards left behind by the Ancients were designed to repel simple force or singular energy, but they may respond to fusion magic—especially one aligned with cleansing and insight.” He gestures toward the altar behind him. “The Temple of Still Waters contains two such wards. Until now, they rejected your presence. With Veilbrand Surge in your arsenal, you may now pass... if you can wield it wisely.” He steps aside. The grove grows quieter, as if awaiting your next move. Updated Stats: (unchanged) HP: 26 / 26 EP: 16 / 16 Spell Book Update: Veilbrand Surge (Level 1) (Can now be used to unlock warded sections in Elemental Temples) Outcome of the Choice: The Guardian confirmed that Veilbrand Surge can be used as a key to unlock previously sealed wards in the Temple of Still Waters—you now have access to deeper parts of the Water Altar’s sanctum. Next Choices: Travel immediately to the Temple of Still Waters to explore the sealed wards. Use a Firegem to empower Veilbrand Surge before heading out. Visit the Spirit Shrine to meditate and possibly evolve the spell’s insight effects. Rest in the Grove and prepare your spells for the journey. Ask the Guardian if other fusion spells might unlock secrets in the remaining altars.

how about the official version.

But, on the radio this morning I heard this! because Eurovision is coming up. I expect you all to be humming along and giving wolves bananas 🐺 🍌

and you can't start fighting either. No fighting!

You can still hubbub BTW. Just don't break my Night Rules

Well I don't know about you, but I've had quite the day! I truly hate having to go into the office. I don't care that they try and make it nice by providing much pizza and cans of pop.

End of Day 2 The day began in chaos. James Madison was dead. The first true casualty after Washington's erasure. And with that came panic—murmurs and finger-pointing, everyone scrambling to find a scapegoat, to reassert control over a game that had slipped from their grasp in the dead of night. And then the further Vanishing during the day. And in the center of it all stood King George III. Unbothered. Immaculate. Smirking, as though he’d been waiting for this moment. When the accusations began to circle him, he didn’t flinch. If anything, he seemed... amused. “Oh, my loyal subjects,” he said, voice dripping with mock sympathy. “So quick to forget who kept things civilized around here.” He stepped slowly toward the center of the square, arms open in a gesture that managed to feel both theatrical and condescending. “You want someone to blame? Someone to crown your fears and call him guilty?” He tilted his head. “Well. I do love attention.” The votes rolled in, and still he smiled. It wasn’t the grin of someone innocent. It wasn’t guilt, either. It was something stranger—like a man enjoying the performance, even if he knew the curtain was about to fall. As the final vote was cast, he clapped his hands once, softly. "Bravo." He looked around at the crowd, all indignation and nerves. “You’ll miss me, you know,” he said. “I brought order. Rules. A little pomp to your panic.” No one answered. “You think this ends well for you?” he asked, voice dropping ever so slightly. “I’ve seen rebellions before. They’re all the same—idealistic little fools tearing down their betters until there’s nothing left but ash and regret.” He turned then, slowly, taking a few deliberate steps away from the crowd. And with a smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes, he called back over his shoulder: “You’re on your own.” The hush that followed was absolute. And then, quietly, the whisper passed from one player to the next, like a line rehearsed too many times. He has been… erased from the narrative.

Fusion. Story: You place one hand on the Water stone, the other on Fire, and press your forehead lightly to the Spirit stone. The Codex pulses violently, threads of deep blue, crimson, and silver weaving upward into the air around you. The elemental lights spiral into a glyph never before seen—an intricate symbol that glows with waves of energy, pulsing in three tones at once. The Codex names your creation: Spell Learned: Veilbrand Surge (Level 1) Type: Hybrid Spell (Water + Fire + Spirit) EP Cost: 6 Cooldown: Once per battle (or major encounter) Effect: Unleashes a torrent of scalding, soul-charged water in a wide arc.

Passive Effect (Spirit Synergy): Grants you insight into the emotional state of all affected enemies for 1 turn.

If people want to look them up, they can, so please stop. They are all grown ups. Age wise.

Hands up anyone who thinks it might be a good idea to discuss set up right now? Anyone? No. Well alright then.

Are we nearly there yet?

I'm loving the blow by blow slow motion replay.

Not the first time that I've killed Turin. Won't be the last.
