    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    You mean the "beacon" in the Mansus? Is that even a location we can explore? Also there's no frangiclave. Axe took it and we have no idea what she did with it She might have brought it in the mirror world, or maybe it broke in the process of freeing her

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I'm only sacrificing 1 AP, and a fairly negligible risk of us not doing both moth 5 and lantern 4. nothing more, but also nothing less. I don't think it's paranoia. the vote is telling Axe to get us a criminal. Axe will find us one. If we tell her where to go, we can make sure it's a criminal...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I'm playing a Velvet walking the tightrope of "do what you must/need" and "try to be good, or at least not too evil". So to me an action spent on... well, not using a random pickpocketer Axe found at the market and instead using a child abuser or something comparatively bad is worth it.

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    For what matters I plan to propose a vote that will have Velvet do a scrying to PERSONALLY find a "victim" she can live with. I imagine this will allow us to better direct Axe in her action @OurLadyOfWires In any case the way I see it (and there's definitely different opinions about it in this...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I think you're missing the point, or alternatively you just don't care for it. Not picking Velvet Hill or Spoiled Rich, but still doing the sacrament with a criminal is basically Velvet recognizing that she has a NEED for that power, enough to commit an immoral act, but that she'll try to pay...

    I imagine it would be an easy fix. If the scrying action was meant to find the criminal, and Axe was meant to find the criminal...

    4th option, scry for a (mostly) guilt-free criminal victim

    and then the ritual points at ourselves 😭 it near certainly does.

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    you know, I think there's an easy way to fix the winning plan away from the "we might end up sacrificing a not-that-bad minor criminal. When it comes down to Velvet's action vote, we replace the third study action with a Tapestry ritual for that "super-horrible we-won't-feel-bad-about-it...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I don't think any of the proposed plans result in a bad NARRATIVE. I'd still rather keep a Velvet that tries her best to limit her evil... killing Velvet Hill is in a way a Velvet that gives up. It's her indulging. which, well, fitting for the GRAIL sacrament, sure, but there's no way to...

    [X] Plan: Prisoner Chomping I'm sad this plan doesn't include Tall Tale Velvet though, but other than that I think it's everything I want? [X] Plan: Let's Not Kidnap a Prominent Figure From Canterlot This seems a lot like Prisoner Chomping except for having Tall Tale. [X] Plan: Prisoner...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    posting my thoughts before FINALLY looking at the plans and deciding what to go for: I PERSONALLY think the decision to in the end go for Mareinette sacrament is NOT a wrong decision, in that there's a very good argument that we can't afford risks, and Mareinette is extremely useful both for...

    and of course that's when Velvet wakes up. ...ah, right, she can't dream anymore... keep in mind that lvl 4 artifacts are RARE. we didn't even have those when Bird first commented on us not being WILLING (and not able, he never said we wouldn't be ABLE to pay) to pay the 3rd price...

    embarassing, I actually posted on Red Riot quoting this thread before by accident :V oh well, I deleted that post, and it was nothing that important. We COULD just renew Mareinette "normally" if we wanted to. Telling her we're interested is NOT the same as telling her we WANT to do her...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I still think the "right way to do the wrong thing" would be an unconnected criminal, but Velvet Hill is PROBABLY less bad way than Spoiled at least. He's definitely done far more to deserve revenge from Velvet, and that's not counting all his OTHER crimes. ...damn, I don't want to go Velvet...
