Well, there is a consistency issue here because Beyond did not happen. So I have to bring in the storyline from it somehow else, without revealing all of it, in case it does happen, later on. I still want it to happen.

Oh well, there's always next invasion! ;)

*fingers crossed*

I direct you to this quote:

From this I would have thought to see much more of an undead presence in the Fifth Invasion.

So the undead accomplished their big secret agenda...

And look what *that* gave them. I guess it wasn't a big deal after all. ;)

We won't find out until Beyond arrives or Tom decides to spill the beans anyway, heh.

Twelve silver coins which equals one gold coin says that despite it all, anything we learn will either be so dense that none of us gets it, except for the people who wrote it and/or people who decide to be jerks and thumb their noses while the rest of the players much like themselves wallow in confusion, or so simple that none of us even care to entertain the thought. Both of which result in none of the "normal" players knowing anything.

But that's also the real world too, so it's a good reflection of that.

Oh, you'll know. Didn't you read what I wrote about "themes"? In the 4th invasion, all the confusion was pretty much part of the plan, because confusion is what builds distrust and distrust is what you need for seperating people from each other, and seperation is what you need to draw them into your scheme, and drawing them in is what you need to betray them.

Betrayl isn't the theme anymore.

1st Inv: Huh? Wut? This can't be happening.

2nd Inv: Guidedangit not again! Stupid damn frogs!

3rd Inv: Yo Prudent, I'll give you some nice items if you stop messing around.

4th Inv: We...just screwed ourselves...We were so stupid...There's no point anymore...

5th Inv: Ah well, guess this is the end. It was a good life.

6th Inv: Oh hey, so this is what the afterlife looks like.

That's not true... when I wounded the Nightfall of the North the blood surely gushed out on the rhythm of a heartbeat.

Looks like the theme is  kill! kill! kill!


The signpost on Daimon Worship temple read like this- [censored by Tom]
What is Freedom? - ye can tell; That which slavery is, too well; For its very name has grown; To an echo of your own

T'is to work and have such pay; As just keeps life from day to day; In your limbs, as in a cell; For the tyrants' use to dwell

Wait...

Was that meant to be the invasions, or the seasons of Lost?

Nice catch... I hope the BT story has a better ending though.

songqu88@gmail.com

Duh, the Blight is a form of the smoke monster, and the daimons are the ones who watch over the progress of it. Think of BT as a really long ago prequel to Lost, when the architecture is being built for the future weird island thing.

And that means the Invasions will conclude in a "climax" at a temple...church...well, there are only temples in BM, but the point is the same.
