Threads Of Destiny(Eastern Fantasy, Sequel to Forge of Destiny)

Voted best in category in the Users' Choice awards.
I'm very disappointed at the way the vote is going.

This is about which of two sites we unlock, and the permanent party/social even that is the revel seems to me to have a lot more long term potential than whatever unpleasantness lurks in some moldly old jail cell.

This is going to be a place we come back to again and again. You really want a prison over a party? Come on.

I mean the this choice doesn't mean we are never going to a revel again. In fact seeing as this:
The Dreaming Gala: Only once have you tasted the wine of Dream, and reveled in her halls. Those memories are blurry. Those memories are slippery. You have grown, and you know in your heart that you always have an invitation. Seek again that cacophonous hall, that phantasmal concert, and find the lessons you may have yet missed: Fuses the Ephemeral Dreamlit Dancer technique in to the Dreamwalker Trait. Advances the Dreamwalker Trait by 1 level, and the
Is one of our cultivation options that we have to do if we wanna master plr, we are bound to go to at least one revel again in the future. Maybe more if we do end up taking Xuan Shi to one. I'd rather have a prison of broken space and the ability to go to revels later than just the ability to go to revels.

I really like this option much more. I feel that LQ is not a revel person, and on the other hand the goal has the skeleton, and it is behind the shattered throne; and I think for us as direct vassal of the heir to the throne we need to know about this.

I think both options will be cool so I'll just be approval voting. Not that it matters because spooky pond looks to be a run away winner.

Let's peak behind the curtains here.
 
So this is a hidden moon vs dreaming moon choice and as we are doing dream stuff the vote should be...

i was enjoying this update, really, then, we got the new targets....then, the choice....
Onward, to Skeletor! Skeleton husbando! Spooky scary skeleton!
 
To me Skeletor > Revel but the Fantasial Revel seems more interesting than the Shattered Goal. Like, I'd just want to dip in and see how this leads to the Nightmare of Burning Glades, if the great lord who should sit atop the throne of vines and wicker is the corpse of the black lake and if the door behind it leads to him. But if it's just associated with it or will only give us a bit of backstory about the corpse then a party of Weilu echoes sounds way more fun.

I don't have any idea who is supposed to be in the gaol, and because of that I have no interest in voting for it.
 
"Don't worry me like that, you'd already started to grow horns for goodness sake," Sixiang huffed.

Ling Qi's hand rose to her temple, but she felt nothing. Still she doubted Sixiang was lying. "I'll be more careful," she murmured.
Huh, so Weilu women got horns too... I kinda assumed that was a male thing as female deer don't grow antlers.

The Nightmare of the Burning Grove (? I'm having trouble finding the exact phrasing of his name) is there who seems to have some sort of connection with the Dream Cult. Interestingly his location was clearly shattered in physical reality, suggesting that there is an overlap between the Liminal and reality there.

Plus, well, LQ has always been one to see some horrific cultivator and go "they look lonely".

Skeletor is not going anywhere. We can come back to him/er later. If he's the Great Lord of this Revel it means we'll learn about his good origins rather than his shady end. That's Hidden 101. The Revel and the information in it about the Weilu, their music, customs, etc. will be lost forever if we leave this hall. Skeletor will remain.
