「工場見学」

SUNTORY京都工場に行ってきました。

素晴らしい企業ですね。90分の見学コースでしたが、あっという間に終わりました。生産ラインは圧巻の迫力でした。残念ながらメンテナンス日だったため、運転してませんでしたが、メンテナンススタッフの方々が笑顔で手を振ってくれたりしてなんか楽しかったな。サントリー山崎に続き、今回はモルツのビール工場へ、モルツの試飲は3種類のモルツ、香エール、マスターズドリームと飲み比べました。香エールはフルーティで飲みやすいです。3杯も飲んだら結構ご機嫌になりました。水が大切なんですね。あと、麦芽って食べれるんですね。結構美味しくてびっくりしました。

So Khalil's story was (is?) about What If you already defeated the big bad by secretly sealing him inside of yourself and now have to deal with the fallout of that? Like the big epic confrontation to free his home of a tyrant happens off screen before the story even starts in earnest, and because he has to dedicate so much of his power to keeping the bastard locked inside, he's Nerfed to shit.

None of the Big Bad's subordinates are thrilled about this and even if a good handful of them are now fighting each other to fill the power vacuum Khalil created (bc he sure as hell is not filling it himself), an alarming amount seemingly want to kill him, not knowing how or even what he did to create the vacuum in the first place. And they think it's going to be easy because he's this cowardly and pathetic looking little man, but he keeps managing to slip out of their grasp.

Meanwhile, the big bad who is very much not dead and is rightly miffed about being trapped inside a twink keeps trying to subtly influence him in dreams, in reflections, in quiet moments, and the more he fails at that the more aggravated he gets. And it isn't until a moment of pure desperation that Khalil even dares to use his power, (thus revealing to his enemies and allies just what it is he did) leading to some pretty devastating lasting effects on him.

Leno-Myraavi Khalil! Twilight Caste born and raised in Thorns! Has never really left Thorns until the plot of the comic kicks off!

And his various outfits he may or may not wear over the course of the story!
