I can't stop imagining Mrsha's Dear Diary note as a song sung by Johnny Cash in the style of his cover of Hurt originally by NIN. So good. Like people keep wondering: is there a mind healer in this world or is that just going to be the darkest running joke of the story...

2024-08-16 01:35:58 +0000 UTCWhen it actually started working it asked for a password. I did originally copy and paste what came after the link and got double the same first part. I think you can stop telling me what my experience was, and as and IT professional I know how hyperlinks work. Lets leave it at that, thanks

2024-08-15 22:31:42 +0000 UTCIt worked for you too: the first couple paragraphs are the same between the two parts.

2024-08-15 13:16:13 +0000 UTCActually it didn't request a password and took me back to the top of the same page when I used it on the morning of. Glad it worked for you.

2024-08-15 12:31:21 +0000 UTCCould the old ones be the reason magic is failing in the new lands?
Archmage37
2024-08-15 11:46:56 +0000 UTCMore than one kind of old one: remember that when the Selphids took the flesh of Gravehome they formed a gestalt monster that Neirs designated an "old one" even though it was brand new. As psychic as it was it might have even inherited truly ancient memories, but it seems to be more of a power designation than anything else. I think it is too far away from Liscor to be the Mother of Graves by a different tunnel, I could be wrong about that given she has been awakened by the Solstice.

2024-08-15 05:18:22 +0000 UTCthe link worked fine, you should have kept reading

2024-08-14 19:03:22 +0000 UTCI'm wondering if it may be a generic term for those Tier 8 monsters that have been fermenting and growing in dungeons for millenia, but don't necessarily have a species per se. Shirka's thought just before, might be referring to them: " The same feeling as she got when she heard Named-ranks talk about the things you found that had no name until they killed it."
DAK
2024-08-14 16:57:41 +0000 UTCI want that darn palace, but just for books. Surely better than scrummaging through a03 for a good fanfic all the time 😭

2024-08-14 16:29:52 +0000 UTCWhen the author creates a more cruel and unusual punishment for their dear readers than the monthly poll of what could of beens and what we could of had
Rukshan
2024-08-14 16:26:01 +0000 UTCMaking sure the other Mrsha stays alive as well when she leaves, maybe? This could be very interesting if ever one of them could cross over...
Splutty
2024-08-14 15:41:35 +0000 UTCIt's more the "it killed magic" thing that I am trying to figure out in conjunction with the other mentions of old ones. The wandering inn needs a beastry or something.
Archmage37
2024-08-14 14:52:07 +0000 UTCWell, Niers and Folena were able to escape, while the rest of their who named-rank team died. Niers fits into a pocket and Folena is a super sneaker rogue. The Old One in the high passes didnt find Gothica, so it is plausible that Folina would be able to escape as well
Craig
2024-08-14 14:27:10 +0000 UTCDon't forget the parts after part-2 from the Slam links before reading this :P
Splutty
2024-08-14 11:34:31 +0000 UTCYeah , the slam link did nothing on day 1 so not sure I missed anything as much as it wasn't a working link when I read this. Slam just sent e back to the top of the same page when I tried it.

Dominik Zettelmann
2024-08-14 05:28:50 +0000 UTCMaybe a result of the thoughts she wrote in her diary?

2024-08-14 04:28:42 +0000 UTCThe 'slam' chapters were awesome, this covered and fixed everything that was not quite right during the stream.
Pherosis
2024-08-14 04:12:16 +0000 UTCYeah I wasn't sure why she left it opened. What's the point of it?
Tarim Shahab
2024-08-14 03:56:30 +0000 UTCCome on and slam. And welcome to the Jam.
Robert Mullins
2024-08-14 03:56:05 +0000 UTCThey might be the Drake version of Rashkagar that's gone Old One. He called the drakes 'cousins'.
Tarim Shahab
2024-08-14 03:55:32 +0000 UTCAnd Niers survived that?
Archmage37
2024-08-14 03:47:39 +0000 UTCUsing a shoe to wedge open a door in the palace of fates… nothing could go wrong there.

2024-08-14 03:26:53 +0000 UTCWTB Slam
Richard
2024-08-14 03:24:22 +0000 UTCSo we all know that of Pallass kills Rags, then Erin will bring down Pallass’s wall right?
Theo The Good Food Bath Monster
2024-08-14 03:07:38 +0000 UTCHe calls the drakes “cousins”. My guess is that drakes are dragon/human hybrids so old ones would be related to dragons
Craig
2024-08-14 03:02:48 +0000 UTCYay! I love this new format, even if it were every other day or three times a week. I hope you can find a pace where you can actually build a backlog AND have some rest built into the schedule.

2024-08-14 02:59:01 +0000 UTCGreat chapter. I like the growth that Mrsha is showing.
David L Ballenger
2024-08-14 02:56:55 +0000 UTCI reaaaalllly want to know what old ones are especially with that line
Archmage37
2024-08-14 02:41:02 +0000 UTCDefinitely healthy!
