Secondary Saga II(?) Interest Check/General Discussion

[Guu]

After receiving a bribe taking into consideration certain new factors, I have decided to participate as well.

As for which verse we should traverse in our search....I guess that depends on how 'straightforward' we want the adventure to be. If fairly so, I think the Ashen Steppes and Vasty Deep offer a variety of different experiences that could be used for the quest. I lean more towards the Ashen Steppes one. It hasn't been done yet, it's a little more unique, it's a good opportunity to explore the aftermath of the Volvagia raid and, in general, the Steppes are a place that can always use more activity.

If people would prefer a more unconventional adventure (though personally, I don't mind something more straightforward, since the original Secondary Saga was already fairly 'mind trippy'), then something like the Astral Realm would make for a very whacky and varied experience. And it's another verse that could use more activity.

I'm not sure how to feel about the Pale Moors one. On the one hand, it too offers a variety of experiences and is a fairly compelling place in general. But as much as I like the Silent Hill premise that forms the core of that Void Quest, I feel like isolation is a key part of the Silent Hill experience and thus doesn't work (as) well in a group setting.

*Quietly angry that ya heavily reccommended Ashen Steppes and Astral Realm ones, the two I wanted to do for Isabelle and Guu respectively.*

Though, honestly, I don't think the Astral Realm would work, it's intentionally written to be chaotic and random, it's hard to organize around. Plus, if we are treating these characters like Level 1 fresh from the pond, that's 2,000 om for Enlightenment which is a requirement for that particular quest.

And I don't know about the Ashen Steppes one either. You're going to send 20+ through a bunch of narrow caves?

And the Pale Moors one... I dunno, Silent Hills has a very personal aspect to it, marching an army of people into it at once might be interesting... though I don't see it working for us.


I'm going to change my vote to the Vasty. It would makes sense so many people would be needed, it takes a lot of people to man a ship! We wouldn't even need to be in groups, it's just crewmates on one vessel! Just think of the adventure! Stop to explore an island for supplies, fend off pirates and seafolk! Plunder treasure! YAR! It was heavily considered for the first SS for a reason. xD


Bonus cannidate: Endless Dunes. There is a risk of endless posts about thirst and heatstroke, but this could also be potentially awesome!
