The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc.
The Celestial’s Sacrifice
On their way to the Firewine Bridge Ruins, the Troupe found a cave haunted by the ghost of Torqion. Aegon promised to obtain a “Vampiric Sword” to free the ghost from its curse. They now continue on their way to the Ruins, seeking treasures and curses alike.
Slow Boat to Luang Prabang
We were in Huay Xai, a border city in Laos. Across the river we could still see Thailand, a place we were already missing. On that day we would take the slow boat to Luang Prabang, a journey that would span multiple days.
ENDLESS Legend: A New Age
After countless restarts in ENDLESS Legend, I’ve finally forged an empire that feels promising. My Wild Walkers have grown from a single fledgling city to a thriving kingdom of five regions—and for once, I believe I can see this game through to the end.
Adding More Moth Varieties
This week I added a couple of new moths to Bok’s Banging Butterflies. One is another silk moth, this one a little colourful. The other is the tiniest of Clothes Moths.
Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights
Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of “need.” The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc.
Ambush at Beregost Temple
The Troupe visits Beregost on their way to the Firewine Ruins. They check in on Taerom Fuiruim who has found a way to counter the kobold poison used in the Nashkel Mines, and take the time to rest up.
Thai/Laos Border Crossing
Our visa extensions were running out, so our time in Thailand was coming to a close. We had elected to cross the border from Thailand to Laos, and take a slow boat along the Mekong River.
(Re)Starting ENDLESS Legend
ENDLESS Legend is a turn-based strategy game that is similar to Civilisation. You use settlers to build cities, research new technologies, advance to new ages, and conquer other nations through diplomacy and war.
Green Skirt Baron Butterfly
Variety is what brings a mod to life, and with every new butterfly, Bok’s Banging Butterflies grows more vibrant. On a recent trip along the Monk’s Trail in Chiang Mai, I spotted an uncommon butterfly known as the Green Skirt Baron.
