Perpetua 53: Up and Down 01 friendsatthetable.net/perpetua-53-...

friendsatthetable.netFriends at the Table: Perpetua 53: Up and Down 01Long before there was an Elevana League, there were the Elven city-states, rivalrous and fragmented. Across centuries, they skirmished over territory, bickered about resources, and contended for prestige. It was only when an invading empire pushed them to the breaking point that they tempered their singular ambitions, united against their would-be-conquerers, and became a nation. At least that’s how the story goes. And it is that story which they celebrate here, in Lumai, the Gleaming Fortress, which traces its own history back to those battles of lore and epic—and to the mythical favor of Lucena, Bringer of Light. She was so impressed with their efforts, it is said, that she gifted them her moon, brighter in day than the world’s sun, yet most tranquil in nightglow among all the satellites of the Ennead… Every year the sun slowly ticks, day by day, into place above that constant moon. An inverted eclipse. A stellar occasion for the dignitaries of the League to come together:  Theia Galani, Ice Princess. Toirneach, Lightning Rider. Doctor Hashin, Herbal Minister. Aisling Revanj, fiery Hexcloak. Historian Whish, my pupil. Hardrock Metch of Marl. Athon, High Cleric of Castine. Saylea Fen, Shadow Governor of Umbexia. And of course, Adrius Aegier, the High Marshall of Lumai, the head of the Order of the Bright Wall, and older brother of Hexcloak chief Thereus Aegir. They come together to celebrate the founding of the League, to dance and feast under twice-bright light. But Lumai rumbles with rumor. Soldier-engineers work double duty, erecting a new wall just outside of town. Hexcloaks arrive unannounced and move unimpeded. And something draws nearer over the horizon… This week on Perpetua: Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.062] Ongoing Mysteries - Dragon Path (Known Entrances and Exits) [OMDPE] The Dragon Path is a system for quickly traveling long distances across the game world. This is really important if you’re going to do a lot of exploration before getting an airship!  Simply playing the main scenario (on either continent) will inevitably bring you to at least the edge of one entrance to the Dragon Path. In the eastern story, a painting in Cenn puts you on a direct path towards Lumai (with a detour). In the western campaign, you’ll first enter the Path during the open quest to the Dragon Tower, and then in the Clayridge Mountains you’ll likely fall “randomly” into the Path (you’ll end up at the same detour as the eastern party). But there are many other ways into and out of the path. Obviously, there’s the entrance painting in Lumai, since that’s where you exit from if you take the one in Cenn. Below are the others I’ve found so far. Let me know if you’ve found others! Stitchscore: The painting in the trophy case. Ruins of the Grand Academy: There’s a hole-like entrance under some rubble in the northern district near the water. Veruz: I haven’t actually seen this one, but I’ve read a note from a member of the Way of Fearless Truth talking about some priest having one in his room. Duriel, The Shattered Colosseum: There’s a painting in the Temple of Zephius. Terroir (Grand Sonnerie): Check the basement in the Old Vintner’s House! Burzin: In the basement of the Post Office ruins. Salix: There’s a painting in the basement of the Bates house! Bates like Arley Bates from Perpetua Prelude, I wonder if his family got that after the Prelude, or if that’s something he actually had down there the whole time. (Also wow, a lot of hidden entry points in basements!) Cenn: You can’t actually seem to find one in Cenn, but there is a secret Dragon Path detection device you can find if you search for the right vendor. Parisolia: The Foreman’s House has one, but it only leads literally to a different place in the same city! (The Mine Owner’s House).

There's a section in our latest Outward episode where Jack and I just start talking about the new DD2 patch and the upcoming DLC, so I chopped in a bunch of post-patch footage I'd taken, including this incredible, perfect self-own.

With this episode, we have finally escaped Castle Eschatonica! Thank you for all your patience, I hope you enjoyed our journey through a mega dungeon floating in the mysterious dragon path 🙇‍♀️ friendsatthetable.net/perpetua-48-...

friendsatthetable.netFriends at the Table: Perpetua 48: Escape from the Rumbling Castle! 08All aboard the Adventure Beckons! Drawn back together after a disastrous time apart, a reunited team of Eschatonica explorers must fight their way to escape. But the Creed of Oracle’s most determined soldiers haven’t given up on taking Jonathan’s new airship back yet… This week on Perpetua: Escape the Rumbling Castle! 08 Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.06] Some Feedback [Page 69 of 71] FriendofNei So what was everyone’s favorite part of Eschatonica? For me, it was getting to mix up the two parties and see how their abilities worked together. Antistrophe, Nicky, and Jonathan are a real powerhouse team! Doom_Tree_Anne I loved mixing the parties too, but more for the special conversations you can get! I hope Brontë can spend more time with Veile and Elena later in the game. TheDiamondRanger Why? Do they get cool bonuses? Doom_Tree_Anne Haha, no, I just like to see them together n.n;;;;;; TheUnforgivenIII The Redolencia and Ichoria Celestial Echoes were fuggin bad ass. I gotta go play those games, they seem metal as hell. Doom_Tree_Anne Oh, they are quite metal indeed! I’d say that was my favorite part as well. Especially getting to see the Agonies rendered in the Perpetua style! What a treat for a long time fan! Alukard83 I loved the Agonies, but I wish they got to stick around long term.  I think my favorite part was the exploration. I loved mapping out all the hallways and dead ends. TheUnforgivenIII Why would you like like to map out a dead end. It’s a dead end. Dumbass. Lol page 69 btw TheDiamondRanger Why is that Lol?
