One of Seram`s offered Graces was inventory world so we can replicate it anyway.

EDIT: found it

[ ] Inner Sanctum - Perhaps the character may never go home again. But that does not mean they cannot make one anew. From the soil of their soul the Cursebearer initiates the genesis of a new world, a personal realm of which they are steward and master. A Rune may be emplaced on items the character owns to send them to and summon them from this Realm near-instantaneously. With time and skill, near all aspects of the Inner Sanctum may be shaped to the character's will.

Fair! But have you considered that getting an inventory would lock us indelibly into the [Gamer] class?

Not at all! Drawing items from your cloak of holding is very much in character for an archetypical mythic hero!

The capture trick is useful on anything that surrenders unconditionally or is defeated and helpless. With our blood magic, even mostly killing someone isn't the end if we don't want it to be, and if our healing isn't strong enough, just put them in time-out until it is.

Indeed, the Blood Ring synergizes well with the ability to imprison foes!
 
I'm undecided as to what to do with the Sten; having him do some good would be alright, but sometimes you should just let man rest.

[X] The Ring of Power

Man, this is just so fucking cool. Lord Hunger indeed.
 
Oh man, both ES EFB options offer synergy, what am I supposed to do? Perhaps people have the right of it to betray Evening Sky for the Ring!
 
Looking at the nature of Eldeldross, I suspect most of the graces we can get will be suited to stat build or healing. They are going to be relatively simply.
 
Mechanically, this would mean gaining Progoression+ for purposes of social, which is nice. Additionally, it will likely lead to lots of Charisma and, this, Protection!

Be the Imperia you always wanted to be SV! We already started making people fall in love with us with our chiseled jaw!

When in doubt - RANK

I mean yeah, Tomb would have meant we didn't need Larissa, but Larissa cost far less than 25 Arete so I'm not sure that would be a favorable comparison exactly. Again, stat-wise Sliver has Tomb beat and also in versatility as well due to the Graces we can get. An Inventory system is good but far from revolutionary, and pocketing enemies in your time-locked cloak has ???? utility. And we are still penalized from developing Tomb further due to Hunger. We don't need to but this out of Evening Sky pity, people.

I mean didn't Rihaku say that Tomb is actually more useful and versatile in the long run...I think people are ignoring the "seal aspect or ideas" part.
 
I wonder how long it'd take for us to reach Ananda from Nobilis tier beauty(Exposure is lethal, Songbirds sing themselves to death in his presence for example)?

He fell, the abused chamber floor yielding at last to the destruction visited upon it, Plerion's vise toppling as well, fingers of that ivory hand beginning to splinter as ruinous winds smashed through its barrier. Through a cut of sheer blue he saw the invader emerge, the accursed R-type who refused to be felled, and Stenallon Worldkeeper roared in fury. A second wave of Shadow issued forth from his left arm, but the invader simply cut through, that impossibly heavy blade slicing the tide straight in half.

Slip POV here. Most writers I'd think it an error, but I can see it builds the hype moment of changing the location and Hunger ascendant. I think if it went on longer it'd read well as a reversal in perspective coinciding with a reversal in fortune. But we then go back to Hunger's perspective anyway, so the jarring isn't ultimately in service to anything, for how quick it's over.

Star of Graces themes are full of Hope, Beauty, Grace, and Magic, a Silmaril in truth.

I just don't like Imprisoner's themes, they're dark, hopeless, and depressing. Getting an inventory is nice, a boosted soul evocation would also be interesting, but I like Graces more as a magic system, and this buffs them by 100%.

It's just not a hard call for me.
 
[X] His People Need Him

A fitting punishment for his crimes.

[X] Imprisoner's Vestige

A hard choice, but in the end this makes the Evening Sky relevant as protection, lets us collect pokemon, and unlocks our Soul Evocation.

Also I'm still hoping to make proper findross.

I wouldn't be broken up for a Silver of Evening victory either. It spares the conundrum of whether or not to use PW on Edeldross for an Intelligence explosion or our Soul Evocation. This is one of those really comfy arguments.
 
So if we get Silver of Evening we want to figure out how to produce Findross. We know we can do so with edelross, so we'll need to figure it out.

If you want to make proper findross, which we know is possible, wouldn't Silver be the better choice? It lets us get the entire array of Graces for no upkeep cost!
 
The EFB inlays Evening Sky with a jewel of pure Edeldross and says Edeldross-derived abilities don't require upkeep. Even if we find out how to produce findross, which we still have only vague ideas about, the EFB is mostly about enhancing Edeldross usage.

I like the option and am voting for it, but it's best not to draw a pie in the sky lest we are disappointed later.
 
Man the two Evening Sky EFBs give different vibes. The Sliver of Evening based on the edeldross has these heavenly themes and an overall power based on good aesthetics. Meanwhile it seems Heavenly Vault draws its theme on the void between the stars, that infinite depths of abyss in the sky. When I picture it in action I am reminded by All For One stealing and taking pieces of others for himself or Glaistig Uaine turning people into powerless slaves to fight for her. I mean Hunger could and had used other powers of evil for the good of all but Heavenly Vault just gives me these picture of an overlord taking things precious to others like free will, resources and even fundamental parts of themselves.

Still fucking cool though.
