Ah, almost forgot that.
How long do you all think it would it take for Eclipse to find the first circle now the Woods are the Wastes? The Master gave the cult the first one so I assume it is needed to make a two circle ritual unless the Blank Plains has both circles.
Now I'm imagining Eclipse...
Yeah, that makes sense. But she trusts us and if we tell her why we can't let the lores come out fully just yet(Daybreaker) she might follow the plan and wait to heal Shining until Celestia is better.
We are going to heal the scar anyway so it's either trusting Cadance to keep quiet for now and...
...
Have we been reading the same Cadance? Because she is not well-adjusted at all, she just pretends she is because she is a Princess.
She had 3 breakdowns that I remember: When we told her about Twilight's kidnapping, when she thought Velvet lost her "baby" and we showed her the scar as...
I honestly forgot we could teach as a free social, I guess that solves the AP cost issue with Selene's training.
That speedrun will prove if Velvet's luck went away for good or if it will return. :V
That basically locks Axe's action as a lesson though, nothing wrong with it I just don't like...
You just reminded me that we can do that(get her to All-4) next turn. I presume "a confident certainty" would count as properly introducing Selene to the occult.
At this point waiting for Heart 4 to teach the whole family takes too much time so it's better to get Seeker Selene first.
I'm calling it now: Selene will reveal herself to Copper just before she is killed by one of the Names(or maybe she will do it herself, she does have a Winter Realization to reach), taunt her and maybe make a speech that has something like "that's what happens when you hurt my family" in it.
But doesn't that apply to helping Twilight too? On Cadance's side at least since telling your friend somepony she loves might not be there for long if you don't talk to them looks like it fits(and if the worst happens, at least they would see each other one last time).
The long run investment...
I don't really feel like hubris applies to Velvet, she is not really confident in her abilities she is just so competent/lucky we never really had her try to do anything that challenged her.
I feel like something along the lines of "denial" or maybe "delusion"(sloth?) is more like her. No pride...
There is also that possibility the Names have "things" that stopped them from being active before the Quest started.
Axe and her curse.
Mareinette and the Church.
Biedde and the Museum.
Baldomare and Illopony.
With Neighnia... she might have been just stuck as a painting.
Is anyone else extremely curious to see the Wrong Keys being used or is it just me? To be more specific, them being used on Neighnia.
We know they deal one Wound to a summoned creature if used in combat but when the Master went Moth on us for the last time it could also be used to banish him...
Ponyville wasn't really safe, remember the "kidnappings"?
You actually gave a very good narrative argument for talking to the Mayor, but I still want to social Applejack(for nefarious purposes).
Neighnia should be higher, at least priority 3.
Not sure about looting if it interferes with the Names collecting Evidence against Velvet, if it doesn't I'm in.
Then we can at least invite her to talk with us, maybe offer to hire her someway?
I don't like the idea of any of the Names being unbound(yes, including Baldomare) so if Neighnia doesn't go back to being a painting after we kill Copper or just stops being active in the Wake because of it we...
So we all agree on 1 action for healing(2 left) and paying 60 bits to get the auto success to healing, right?
I kinda wanted to write to Uncle Steppes, just for him to know we are recovering.
Social for Applejack(remember if we pay bits the -15 doesn't matter, since the roll will succeed...
