Well, I said âlater todayâ. Apparently, that means now, because Iâm genuinely a little choked up right now and need to express my feelings. Obviously, massive, MASSIVE spoilers for Quest for the Queen down below!
Puzzle-wiseââtwas all well and good! But I wouldnât know. Again, I was skimming them, because doing the puzzles gets in the way of reading the PLOT and I donât have time for these peopleâs problems :P
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH *explodes*
I knew it! I KNEW this was post-apocalypse! I clocked it from the moment I read Transportia in the promo images! I KNEW it! And then I saw that Render got a âmagicâ gauntlet that shot out fire and I was just like FLAMETHROWER GLOVE. AND I WAS RIGHT. All the magic was advanced tech!
Well. Mostly. Apparently, possession is real? Holy mother of wow.
Sir Render and Queen Leigh, the one heterosexual couple in puzzle books to not be doomed by the narrative! ^^ I enjoyed Renderâs growth immensely. Seeing him genuinely become a better person over the course of the narrative and earn a happy ending was soâŚimmensely satisfying. I loved Bâs tragedy, but this is nice too. (A happy ending? In Bordergrams? Itâs more likely than you think!)
PanâŚoh god I wanted to give him a hug. Iâm declaring it now, he survived the sanctumâs collapse and reunited with Render and Leigh later. Itâs canon now. No one can stop me. (My first villain blorbo was also possessed and forced to do evil against his will, so Iâve got a soft spot for them.)
Speaking of possessionâŚ
B. Oh my GOD. I was really hoping thereâd be some twist that would let him be an antagonist because B just being dead seemed like a waste of a possible villainâAND THERE DAMN WELL WAS! Holy fuck I was RIGHT that he was past the point of conquering the world and just wanted to destroy it, and even his own (probable) death didnât stop him from trying. This man literally built the Divisionâs successors into a DEATH CULT. Oh my GOD. B. B I love you. B stop doing this to yourselfâ
Ty got a cameo! ^^ I like that he still counted B as a friend, after everything. That was nice ^^ Iâm not entirely sure what was going on thereâwhether this was an afterlife or some kinda simulationâbut then again, neither would Render. Medieval times, and all :P
(Yâall think the fantasy creatures mightâve actually been, like. Mutants, or something?)
All in allâthis was a very, very fun story ^^ Iâm happy the Bordergrams world could get a happy ending, after everything, but Iâm also sad, becauseâŚwell, B, for one thing, but also because the series seems to be over. And speaking as someone who loves Bordergrams deeply and dearly, it always hurts when something you love comes to a close. But, well, it was good, from beginning to end. Thatâs all one can really ask for, in the end ^^
âŚI do have one question, though.
Okay, so Render is descended from the Holy Being. The Holy Being was B.
So who on Earth was his other ancestor?!
No, seriously. Was it Ripley? You know, in the super brief time B and Ripley had before she pretended to blow herself up? Was it someone else? You know, when B was clearly so hung up on her he didnât want to make it work with anyone who wasnât Ripley? Was Renderâs entire line the product of some one-night stand the Director had that would produce someone who inherited Bâs depression possible CENTURIES down the line?!
I suppose weâre not finding out, genealogical records probably blew up along with everything else in the Great Divide. But. Well. Itâs the kind of question that leads to interesting headcanons :P
