The Shortest Path posted:I just read 3.08H of The Wandering Inn and oh my god, what a fantastic end to that small arc. After all the despair and awful poo poo happening to the main characters since late book 2, things going stupendously well for once is really great.

The chapter heading talks about "Battle of Four Armies and One" - so my question is what's the fourth army? I guess there already could be all there depending on you do the partitioning.

RE: Wandering Inn Not sure how far you are in, but I thought Ryoka was fairly clearly written to be unhealthily broken, and her behavior has perfectly consequential negative effects late-ish in Book 1. And yes, she does get better as a consequence, though its still an issue that seems like it will cause problems in the future. Ytlaya posted:edit: By the way, is Ryoka supposed to be half-Japanese or is it just a coincidence that her name could be a Japanese one? Also looking at the table of contents holy hell does the numbering make zero sense. lurksion fucked around with this message at 18:42 on Sep 6, 2017 |

Mygna posted:I'm pretty sure this exact moment was the main reason Bard conspired to get Champion killed like she did. That Black so recently witnessed such a powerful villain be defeated by a total nobody of a hero, solely on the strength of narrative weight, certainly didn't do Malicia's argument any favours here.

So it was linked a few months back that the ending of Ra was being rewritten and drafts were starting to be put up. https://qntm.org/files/ra/end2/happen.html Just checked randomly today and it looks like he's finished the drafts - 5 chapters in total.

Practical Guide - who knew that doing classically evil things comes back to bite you in the rear end? At least they came up with some basic mitigation. Disappointing that this will probably result in a sidetrack.

Autonomous Monster posted:Should I be reading these tGaB interludes? The one where Tellwyrn turns out to be a time lord was bad enough I just gave up on them, but there's been like a billion of them since Trissiny had her last bollocking.

Black had days to plan after the plague started, and is noted to be out of power when he should have recovered. So what exactly did he do as his last stand. I'm thinking Pilgram will find his plague is not as contained as he thinks it is.

Hierophant telling a capital G-od (not even a choir) to shut up, and then Warlock kicking it in the mouth certainly is something. Full on divine intervention certainly is messy. There's definitely a power up in the works for witnessing that
