Book 3: Twilly's Tale - Memories of Tea
Hey there, heroes!

This week, Twilly is looking for you! It seems like he wants to pay an old friend a visit, and you're invited to come along!

It's been quite some time since the events of the Book 1 Finale, and Twilly would like you to accompany him to visit an old friend.

Speak to Ash in Book 3 Falconreach to join him.



Also this week, a new cosmetic cape is now available for purchase!

The fin on the back is animated, and (presumably) eldritch energy pulses up the patterns! The Uthuluc Acolyte Limbs can be purchased from the DC Cosmetics shop for 400 Dragon Coins!



And that's all for this week!

Oh this one stings [:(]

spoiler:



It was nice to have a more personal moment with Twilly since we don't really see that with their character that much if at all. Moreover, it was nice to get a glimpse into Celestia's life through that of a trusted friend and companion that was more beyond the Wise Sage archetype she usually filled in the earlier parts of the story. It really reminds you that she was a person under that all that experience and wisdom though there were a few times when that whimsy bled through while we saw her.

I especially appreciate the maturity our character addresses the painful grief Twilly is experiencing over Celestia's death. It hurts, of course, but it's not something you are meant to stop feeling just because it hurts.

Also, it just occurred to me that up until now we never knew the name of the red dragon that we first met in the game. Is that dude still alive? I know he got shot down by the Rose in the Book 3 intro, but it would be nice if we could maybe check up on the guy if he's still among the living.

Yeah, Draco was right. What the hero said about grief was really good.

One moment that really touched me was when Twilly broke the teacup and began to cry because Celestia worked so hard on it for him, but true to her character, she just laughed and said that the cup now told a story too. I feel like this is the sort of thing you would expect her to say and do based on the little you got to know her. Raising Dragons probably requires a lot of patience on her part.

I miss Celestia.
It'd cheapen her story and that of her successor to bring her back from Death's domain ... but losing her was a gutpunch. And remembering the loss is still painful.
