Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
@OurLadyOfWires Does restoring Shining horn still on the table? I mean now that Cadance is aware about Lores can we inform her about ritual and conduct it? It is mainly forge ritual so Forge Name likely would not have any problems with it. -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
Narratively I find any Forge summoning options interesting. Velvet just summons another child for herself, but it may be son this time! And we can do it in Rarity house as she deserves to see first hoof how her money burns being spend for the cause. At the same time both Luna and DoA have... -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
1) We don't have much time left. If people are not willing to commit to Heart study I propose we just abandon idea of going for lvl 4 Heart. Certainly saves us time. In fact if we can't get Name lessons through our own AP then it does not seems doable at all. We can forget about Heart 4 and... -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
Eh, Mareinette preparing Spoiled to be Mothed and then consumed for Grail Sacrament was idea that was floated recently. Even without such extremities Velvet not seriously interacting with Spoiled even once tell certain things about her mentality. Like had she even heard in character anything... -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
Mareinette is not actually locked into Spoiled action, despite what Grail Sacrament supporters want you to believe. Velvet can do Spoiled as her free social and there are other options for Moth Sacrament too that do not involve scaring Tiara. Plan: Robo Doll Pasharka Go! Cover bases... -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
I think Woods covered Mansus and Glory, but Dreamlands appeared later and Woods weren't able to spread there. Or, if say Woods covered Dreamlands at any point of time and then for some reason stopped being able to do it, Harmony is still most likely culprit. Because I think Master was not... -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
Worms arrive at Dreamlands because Dreamland is the thing that glows. Master had access to Dreamscape, if he was able to cover it he would have done it. The fact that it was Dreamscape that encroached on Woods instead of the other way around indicates that Harmony was already too strong for... -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
Citation that you have given in the earlier post directly mentions teaching Harmony to hide. And if Master had power to simply cover it he would have done it immediately, no need to ask Harmony about it. Also Wolf does not eat Harmony. It is Glory that goes dark. Harmony is still around as we... -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
We don't know much about Harmony, but currently I view it more like concept than persona. Harmony actions spread harmony, and it quite possible that it just can't stop on its own. Like child can't stop growing. Or like Moth that flew to burn in the Glory. Luna and Celestia were necessary to... -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
Hiding from Worms is such Master-like decision that I find a notion that it is in fact Master flavored Harmony ending to be quite believable. And it also not something that Harmony itself currently intends to do , as its actions contradict it. It is also what Wolf ending does to hide... -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
I would not be surprised if it was how it was meant to be and Starswirl just screwed things with his disdain for Lores. But also dealing with top tier Worms is the task for Hours. Which is probably why Velvet getting Glory considered to be winning condition. For Harmony to reach similar levels... -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
It also attracts bigger and smarter Worms, whom Luna can't kill yet. Perhaps if Starswirl actually taught her Lores and warned about Worms she would have been more successful. Even with that Harmony would need to greatly expand in its strength to counter what seems to be continent sized Worms... -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
So Luna have 3 actions and DoA now have 2. Are there any particular actions we want them to take? I wanted to suggest for Luna to search for 3 circle ritual sites as she goes flying at night and by now have a good picture of surrounding land. Maybe to look for expedition sites near Ponyville... -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
I would say send her to Cadance so we can see if Cadance have a chance here and to be in better position to make preparations. Scry for lvl6-7 Edge weapon and maybe ask Baldomare for ritual to weaken/ neutralize Mareinette using her bindings/any other way. Then if we see that Cadance starts to... -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
Final state of Mareinette would affect epilogue one way or another unless you consider her to be so insignificant that she would not even deserve a mention in it. Be it friendly cannibal Mareinette, theorized Harmonized Mareinette, or free and holding a grudge Mareinette any should have enough... -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
You see, befriending Mareinette and accepting her habits are not exactly the same thing as taking her Sacrament even though both things are reached simultaneously. You want to tell me that unrepentant Mareinette hanging around and doing her things post epilogue would not affect things? When... -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
The question would be if we are allowed to bring support for the confrontation. Seems counterintuitive for Edge challenge, but Sacrament option does not mention that it must be one on one fighting. I liked the way we fought Windigo :V -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
Is it time for Uncle Steppes to learn Lore of Edge? As long as he is able to survive hellish training of course. It seems like he may or may not be turned into Colonel puppet in the process too. -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
And yet base cadre bonus was not always +15. It was +10 during Luna's Path through Nightmares ritual. And I don't remember what caused it to increase. Is it tied to Ponyville's cult infiltration instead of Library levels? -
Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience
I thought it was just copied from here: -Jade Whistle's Cadre: +15 to rituals performed using the cult's assets. Each Level of cult Lore increases this bonus by its own value, cumulatively. (Level 1 -> +1, Level 2 -> +3 total, Level 3 -> +6 total, etc) It is actually not clear if +15 is base...
