Not So Elven Elle

This was a fun and silly little dungeon, shame I played it like absolute shit cause I was tired LMFAO

Review/Reaction:

What the fuck was that that just happened with Sphene this shit keeps getting weirder by the minute. FUCK ZORAAL JA IS LAUNCHING AN ATTACK NOOOOO. Vi passes control to Y'elviam here cause she knows Y'elviam is the better fighter and thats what they need rn. FUCK YEAHHHH WUK LAMAT vs ZORAAL JA 1v1 LFGGGGGGGG YOU GOT THIS LAMATYIIII FUCK EM UPPPP. I FUCKING KNEW QUEEN SPHENE WAS UP TO SOME SHIT MAN NEVER TRUST A WHITE DEVIL. OHHH MY GOD THIS DEFENSE OF TULLIYOLLAL CUTSCENE WAS SO FUCCKING COOLLLL THE FOOTFALLS PLAYING WHEN VRTRA SHOWED UP AIGJESJIGBIREGBHSRGBRSHGBSRHKGBSKRGBNSKRJGNRS. ALso fucking of course Zoraal Ja lashed out on his people as soon as we defended LMFAO. OH MY GOD HES USING FUCKING GULOOL JA AS A HUMAN SHIELD NO. That solo duty also was so fkn fun holy I love high level red mage. I love that I'm getting these back and forths with story cause it gives me the opportunity to showcase how the lunalises have grown and how they're willing to communicate and work with each other now.

Y'elviam's DT Journal: Together (Day 20) (Entry #6)

Today was one of those days that really made me realize how long we've been doing all this for. Vi understand she's much better at research than combat and cause of that relinquished fronting to me once the situation called for an offensive approach. Even a few years ago we didn't have communication between us like this, its really refreshing and relieving to be able to reliable contact everyone in here and work together in unison so smoothly. I'm also pleasantly surprised to hear of Tulliyollal's successful defense against the Alexandrian offensive, their sheer numbers and air control had me worried. At this point I feel exclusively malice towards Zoraal Ja and his antics. It's truly miraculous how he manages to continuously blow his own horrific and malefic feats out of the water practically every day. Using your own child as a human shield is a level of lowliness that's sure to send you scraping against the rocks of the seven hells on your way to your purgatory. I just Sphene is not one to be trusted either, even after fighting through the Everkeep with her I still do not like her. I can just tell when someone is keeping secrets at this point. In regards to our trials within the Everkeep however, it was quite sad to see Otis go so soon, but at the same time I'm honestly glad his soul has finally had a change to rest after so many centuries. That man certainly deserved it after living in a digital purgatory for so long, I would have like to get to know him better before he departed. When all was said and done I handed control back to Vi so she could tend to the wounded, that being said she did indeed take advantage of the opportunity and studies the various electrope trinkets in the background for about two hours before clocking out and leaving me to finish getting ready for bed. I hope she's left us with enough time to get good rest before our duties tomorrow.

Wow we actually got registered as Sphenes guests. WTFFF THIS PLACE IS SO COOOOLLLLL OUGHHHHH. Vi is so excited to study some shit from another shard she never thought an opportunity like this would just present itself to her. OHHH MY GOD YES WE GET TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE SHARD AND HOW IT GOT TO THIS POINT YESSS DUDE. WHOS GOD DAMN BLUE BABY IS THAT DID ZORAAL JA BECOME A DAD OVER THESE 30 YEARS?????? Ok after stalking for a bit we finally talked and AWWEEEE HES SO SILLAYYYYY SO CUTE I LOVE GULOOL JA. THAT CAMPFIRE SCENE WAS SO CCUTEEEEEEeeee until Otis made it creepy by revealing the fucking endless what the shit. NOOOOOOOOO CAHCUIA IS DEAD I FUCKING KNEW ITTTTTTTTTTTTTT UGHHHHHHHHH. Anyways I think thats a good place to end that episode and the break for repast gives Vi time to write a journal entry while they all talked.

The Tides of Tural: Thunderous First Impressions (Day 20) (The Journal of Vi Lunalis | Entry #4)

Twelve forefend today has been such an exciting day for science. So many things I've learned so far and we're only halfway through the day. Knowing that all of this is from a different reflection too, in a strange way it gives me hope and makes me feel far more connected to my lost home. The scenery around Solution Nine has left me speechless. I spent hours walking around the place noting practically everything I saw and encountered on my far more scientific notepad. The usage of this newfound material known as Eletrope is just stunning, I could only imagine what would be going through Koana's head if he were here to see such technology in action. The usage of electrope within the Backroom of Solution Nine was the most impressive to me. It was so relieving to see electrope being used in such beneficial ways for such interesting pieces of technology. I must admit my first impressions of it were indeed mildly soured by the overwhelming amount of usage they have in soul/memory manipulation, alongside its frequent usage in warmachina. I could go on for days and days about everything I've seen it do, however I've already done that on my other notepad and I've only got this brief dinner to write things down here. Predictably, Alexandria also seems to have their share of aetheric imbalance based conditions. While it has not progressed to the level of the voidsent or sin eaters, I do share concern that without the proper warding magics, the people of this realm are uncannily susceptible to such unfortunate circumstances as the side effects of living in such a levin dominated area worsen. While I hold my fair share of doubt for such pleasantries, it would be enjoyable to see the people of Alexandria work alongside our recently discovered purifying magics in order to cure and prevent these ailments. The tales of their people have made me quite invested in the citizens of Alexandria, and I wish nothing but the best for their people, and even outside of Zoraal Ja's madness, Queen Sphene however concerns me. The tales I've been told of the Endless by Otis certainly freak me out, everything about it just feels so unnatural to me. As much as I would like to study them endlessly, it feels like readying into forbidden technology and information. I honestly don't know if I want the people of Etheryis to be aware that such things are possible. Regardless of my concerns, this has been an incredible opportunity to study though, I hope I will have more opportunities to do such in the near future. Also I somehow am not surprised in the slightest at the fact that we found yet another reflection of Gerolt. That drunken bastard somehow always manages to squeak his way into our adventures, even if its a totally different version of him.

HELLLLLL NO I FUCKING KNEW SOMETHING WAS UP WITH THESE BRAIN CHIPS THEY ERASED NAMIKKA FROM THEIR MINDS FUCKKK THIS. Erm what is this unidentified floating object. IT KNOWS ERENVILLES NAME??? WUK LAMAT HAD THE SAME REACTION AS ME LMFAOOOO. EVERNVILLES MOM IS IN A FUCKING COMPUTER NOW HUHHHHH??? Her voice actor is fucking KILLING this role too oh my god. ERENVILLES MOM IS LEADING AN ANTI ZORAAL JA RESISTANCE HOLY GOAT STATUS??? UHHHH FYM PEOPLE BE WALKING AROUND WITH SPARE SOULS??? IS THAT WHY WE SAW THEM COLLECTING SOULS FROM THE PEOPLE THEY KILLED????? DO THEY HAVE A PERMENANT UNDERCLASS THEY JUST FARM FOR SOULS IM SCARED???? Watching this mf demonstrate the regulators and its insane that they can just shake off killing blows like its nothing what do we do against Zoraal Ja who presumably has an unlimited supply of these as the King of Alexandria. OHHHH MY GOD YOU CAN LOAD BEAST SOULS INTO THEM AND BECOME PART FUCKING ANIMAL THAT SO COOL AND THATS 100% GOING INTO GABE'S CHARACTER LORE FOR HOW HE BECAME PART FISH. Oughhhh getting to learn the backstory to Oblivion was so fkn cool man like its insane some of these people were born and raised in the dome and have only ever known life in here. I'm loving the rebel group so far. ERRRRMMM WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS MEANWHILE WHY ARE WE INSIDE OF A GIANT SUPERCOMPUTER DATACENTER HELLO. Also the story really seems to be setting up that Sphene is mostly innocent here but every time I've let my guard down before theyeve ended up actually being a double agent or something so I'm stilllllllll i dunnooooooo. Anyways I think thats a PERFECT place to leave off this episode. It really is depending on how many quests there are between 98-100 as well as how dense the dungeons + trials are but its looking like S2 is gonna run more episodes than S1! Im guessing 10-12 ep? Probably 10? Who knows we'll find out together

Elamvi's DT Journal: Stained Souls (Day 19) (Entry #7)

It got worse. It got so much fucking worse. I'm truly horrified. Everyone forgetting Namikka like that. Why would anyone choose this. Now there's no way to tell if the opinions coming from these people are truly theirs or if they live their lives absent of true free will. I cannot believe people would so willingly erase, temper, and modify their memories, their souls. The memory issues I deal with are far enough for me to every wish something of the like upon anyone I know, and yet people are just toying with these sacred artifacts of the soul. The usage of beast souls to, its just so unnatural, so uncanny. All of it makes me want to vomit. This whole day I've just been fighting the worst dissociation I've experienced in months, I'm so glad I had my wonderful wife to confide in, I likely would have blacked out otherwise. I am kinda proud of myself for managing to tough it out and not having to rely upon Y'elviam or Myriad, but after today, I'm more than willing to just let Vi take control of things tomorrow, she's been dying to do some research and sampling in the area, I want to give her that opportunity just as much as I want a break. The only positive thing that seemed to come out of today was us choosing Oblivion over Sphene. I really don't trust that woman, something is just so off about her. Meeting Erenville's mom was also really nice, she seems like such a wonderful person. I wish I had more to say on that but its just been hard to focus on the positives after what just went down. I need some rest, that should help me feel better

THE TRAIN CUTSCENE WAS SO C OOL AND THEN THE DUNGEON RIGHT AFTER IT HOOOLY FUCK THE AESTETIC OF THIS PLACE???? THE GEAR DROPPING FROM THE DUNGEON TOO????? WTF??? IM SO ???? HELLO???? Im sorry are they saying ZORAAL JA BROUGHT A PIECE OF ANOTHER SHARD HERE??? Who is this devil white woman on my screen I do not trust her at all. Ok after hearing her out maybe she's not evil but I'm still. Hmmmmmmm. What do they mean "its time" what cult shit am I about to witness bro. FUCKING OLD AND DYING NAMIKKA OH MY GOT NO.... IM SORRY WHAT DO YOU MEAN SOUL CELLS????? OK SO THIS SHIT IS ACTUALLY FROM THE LIGHTNING SHARD HOLY SHIT???? This was literally the last thing I expected from dawntrail oh my god. YUP THESE TECH THINGS ON THEIR HEAD JUST SCRAMBLED THEIR FUCKING BRAINS AND MADE THEM FORGET NAMIKKA I KNEW I WASNT TRUSTING THIS BULLSHIT.

Lore for this journal because there's not a day split here is that she wrote this while Wuk Lamat was having her time with Namikka.

Elamvi's DT Journal: Stranger and Stranger Lands (Entry #6) (Day 19)

It's all rather hard to take in. The fact that the remnants of a reflection lost to the levin have been so spontaneously transported to the source. Not only this, but apparently within this dome thirty long years have passed. I understand the time dilation between reflections is inevitable, however the fact that it continued despite Alexandria's apparition, simply put it scares me. Thirty years the people of Yyasulani have lost living under an unknown orb with no way to contact their loved ones outside of it, its haunting. I feel so terrible for Lamaty'i and Erenville especially, Lamaty'i has now lost both of her parental figures to Zoraal Ja's atrocious ambitions, and Erenville has now lost his home. All of this has been so daunting it seems frankly impossible to earnestly write about the events that led us here. Y'elviam enjoyed her time at the train station and it was indeed satisfying to see the culmination of our efforts come into fruition. I also really do not trust that Queen Sphene, she may have begun to win over Lamaty'i, but something has just felt off about her ever since we met. Today has just been so damn overwhelming. The worst part is? It's not even over yet, I'm writing this while I sit aside a bridge while poor Lamaty'i shares her final words and moments with Namikka. I am trying so hard to stay awake, stay in front, show I'm worthy to be the host of the system I'm supposed to lead. I just don't know how many more punches I can take today.

AWWW THAT CUTSCENE OF MAKING THE TRAIN WAS SO CUTEEE AUGHHHHH. It also gives us room for our first official time skip of 3 days for the time it took to build the train!

Y'elviam's DT Journal: The Wheels of Progress (Day 15) (Entry #4)

Despite hardships, the wheels of fate seem to be moving towards progress. The speech provided by the Vows this morning certainly proved as such. I'm quite proud of those two for how well they were able to calm the concerns of their citizens and rally them all towards a good cause. I'm also quite happy with Bakool Ja Ja, he seems to really have been putting in the effort to improve, and his constant support of the Vows have really attested to this. In regards to the information revealed today about the Golden City, I'm speechless and stunlocked, there's no shorter way to put it. When we agreed to help Wuk Lamat secure her seat as the Dawnservant I never imagined it would result in us somehow finding our way to another shard. Even writing it down now it still feels unreal, the Golden City was truly just a gate to another reflection this whole time? It's baffling, truly. If I was the smart one of us I'm sure I'd have plenty more to write here but unfortunately I'm better at following orders than asking questions. The newly befriended railway crew however is a joy. There's something uncannily familiar about all of them as if I've already met them before, regardless, I'm very excited to take on this train construction project over the next few days. I've really needed something more down to earth and slower paced that lets me just work with my hands. My days on my island sanctuary have certainly changed me to be one to enjoy the simple things as opposed to constant action. I'll enjoy this little project I think. I'm off to catch some sleep.

Y'elviam's DT Journal: A Reflection of Hope (Day 18) (Entry #5)

I'm honestly really proud of the work everyone's come together to do over these last few days. Spending this time with the rail crew was just phenomenal and its all but confirmed to me that these are the counterparts of Magnus and the trolley fanatics from the first. It damn near brought me to tears, I guess I am softening up with my age and experience now. It was indeed such a relief to just pick up some tools and work on something more down to earth. It reminded me of the time I spent in "retirement" on my island. Real shame we'll have to blow this fine work of craftsmanship to smitheries. Regardless, I appreciated the glimmer of hope this excursion provided during these uncertain times.

Elamvi's DT Journal: Tural is in Turmoil (Day 14) (Entry #5)

I suppose we should write about the positive before the negative, although I dont feel all that motivated to write at the moment. The crew behind the train station are all such lovely people. Spending time with them reminded me that there are so many incredible people in the world and helped encourage me to continue fulfilling my duties as the holder of Azem's crystal to protect the star. The train station employees also remind me so much of the trolley fanatics and on the first that I believe that these could very well be their source counterparts. It makes me happy to see that in at least one world Magnus got to live happily with his wife. Meeting the people of Mehwahhetsoan was cool as well, their culture was very intriguing, although Vi would probably find it stupid. (I don't find it stupid, I actually have a soft spot for their connection to nature, I just dont like beliefs that are uncompromising in their nature, its dangerous territory in my opinion) - Vi I knew Zoraal Ja was plotting something, I didn't expect him to go out quietly, but this? This is absolute absurdity, its heinous and horrifying, not even the children were spared. It's safe to say a flame of hatred has been kindled for that man. He slaughtered Gulool Ja Ja in cold blood too, right in front of us all, right after cheating death too. I did not expect him to go this far. I'm horrified honestly. I'm somewhat proud of how long I was able to hold onto the front during the stressful circumstances however. I've been getting much better about being braver and not relying on my headmates as much. Ultimately Y'elviam did have to stand in for me however, which I'm kinda disappointed with but oh well, I'm still not great with death and there are much bigger issues on our plate right now. That's all I really want to write right now. (You did what you could, don't sweat it, take care) - Y'elviam

Y'elviam's DT Journal: Death and Dishonor (Day 14) (Entry #3)

What a pungent pathetic piece of shite. The audacity to cheat death and ruthlessly slaughter your father in front of an audience, to mindlessly slaughter children, mothers, families, to sow such dismay and panic amongst your own people, amongst your OWN FAMILY. Finding poor Lamaty'i over the bodies of the Pelupelu shaking and in tears. That stare into the abyss, the attempt to process what you're seeing but you're just too overwhelmed. I'm all too familiar, its gut wrenching, my heart aches for poor Lamaty'i who's had this illusion that everyone can be reasoned with shattered so brutally before her. I've lost family before, I know how devastating it can feel, but not my mothers, both of them are still healthy and alive, I cannot imagine the turmoil I'd go through if I were to see them slaughtered before my eyes in such a manner. All I can offer is my undying support and deepest condolences, we will be here for Lamaty'i through these trying times. As strange as it may sound over these two weeks Lamaty'i has become somewhat of a sister to me and I wish nothing but the best for her, we shall sail through this storm together. As much as I'd like to go into further detail on how the day transpired, we have no time, we need to rest up and headout as early as possible tomorrow morning to pursuit Zoraal Ja. I pray for the people of Tulliyollal with all my being
