Small update today. Busy. Also, very likely I won't be updating this weekend, I apologize.

Anyways I leave my room and bump in to someone

Attachment 56180

Pretty lady

She fusses at me about being reckless and stuff. Women always be crampin my style

Attachment 56181

He's also supposed to visit me here soon

But FIRST

THIS GUY

Attachment 56182Attachment 56183

Anyways he gets speared right in the head and Rosch shows up

Attachment 56184

Rosch asks what unit or whatever he is from

Attachment 56185

Yeah, I don't know what that means.

Then he glows and turns to sand

Attachment 56186

That's what I just said

So we go back to the room to discuss this odd event

Attachment 56187

This is a problem

Attachment 56188

From what I understand, in this world
-When someone dies, mana leaves their body
-When someone's mana leaves their body, they die

Attachment 56189Attachment 56190

Then from this they talk about how the desertification started after the fall of an empire or something, but they wonder which set of which

MANY QUESTIONS

Attachment 56191Attachment 56192

Suspicious probably

Then the big armor guy asks me to go work for him because BFFs and stuff

Attachment 56193Attachment 56194

So I have a decision to make! Then the book glows again (I'm calling it book now because the actual name is too long to type out. I'm too lazy)

Attachment 56195

No, really?

Attachment 56196

Stocke is all appalled

Attachment 56197

So I go see the book and find the kids again. Stocke is all like raaahhhajsanasjhsjakdhuwio [paraphrase]

Attachment 56198Attachment 56199

Yes, you've explained

Attachment 56200Attachment 56201

This is a conversation that goes on at length so I've tried to pick the screens that sum it up best.

Also, nodes. Nodes are apparently the points in time that I can change things

So Stocke realizes this book wasn't created for himself and asks what happens if he doesn't go through the "true" history or whatever they call it that the kids want him to do

Attachment 56202

Yeah no pressure

Attachment 56203

Oh okay

So now I am super nervous about this decision. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO

What will I do? Find out next time
