The Good News: You Get To Pick Your New Soulmate! (You Can Define "soulmate" However You Want: Platonic/romantic/partners

So I've now cleared the rest of Caria Manor and the surrounding lands. The Red Wolf is much more difficult on a field compared to inside a Debate Hall. I've also entered Lady Ranni's service and have now descended down the Siofra Well to meet with Blaidd.

Additionally, I have tried to craft my own "Elden Bling" as it were while still trying to keep my gearset balanced:

Bandit Mask

High Page Clothes

Banished Knight Gauntlets

Banished Knight Greaves

The weapons I change frequently

Revan: I suffer every day for what. Girlish whimsy The Exile: you have something much more sinister going on

Current progress on Exile has me with arcs 2 and 3 now fully written (except for one interlude chapter) and arc 4 and its interlude(s) outlined. Hiatus is going to end this week with a new upload schedule beginning as well. Yay

That's you, dear viewer. Yes, you. Without any powers either. And you have to fight one. Which one would you be best able to take (in a fight)?

all of these options (excluding the explicit atheist ones, and possibly modern pagan ones) imply a significant detachment from serious religious beliefs, meaning she is functionally atheist/agnostic/theist(?) but was raised with nominal observance for the practices of whatever religion.

Going to try to beat Radahn tonight, but i want to respec some of my stats to be more precise, its a little all over the place currently and I want to be able to use Radahn's greatswords after the fight.

Im kind of considering fighting Commander O'Neil beforehand though, with the arrow cheese method

Killed that bitch Agheel! Kicked my ass several times a few days ago, but I'm 20 levels stronger and with better gear, didnt even use Torrent or ranged attacks, just a sword and a dream

\o/

The government doesn't make you list anything for your religion on any paperwork though, right? 'None' or 'N/A' are perfectly valid answers to questions like that in the US. First Amendment Rights (though we will see how long that lasts in 2025)

Tell me what you think and why you think it!

Waking up to alerts about Elon Musk doing a fucking Nazi salute was not what I was expecting, yet I am not surprised in the slightest
