    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Hmm, let me double check because I'm pretty sure Baldomare managed that scrying for us. Right, so her first try Baldomare failed due to the defenses but she succeeded on the scrying with a re-roll. So scrying was possible if very hard. Mechanically if we had given Baldomare a level 4...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    More of a proto Lore of Agony kinda like Soft Sweeps type of a thing but pretty close. Heart indeed did get lost in the whole death and rebirth thing to be replaced with Edge and Winter. Though the amount of health was a remnant of their old Heart Lore. I think it was mentioned that the House...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Thanks! Your pretty good yourself. The idea just hit me hard after realizing it was probably technically possible (the corpse never popped up as destroyed and the Roots of the Woods are still around), and I had to write a bit about what might happen if we went looking and found her. The idea...

    The Velvet It is dark, an old darkness that has never known of the light. It was here in this cradle of roots that a Goddess was born. The taste of the blood that gave life to the birth still lingers upon the roots. It was here that she fled when she fell, wounded and poisoned. It was here...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I'm pretty sure the rules were that you can't scry stuff in the House of the Sun. It can't be stuff just in the Wake because we have already proven that we can target areas outside of that with the Frangiclave. Given how the remains are probably outside it should technically be possible. Hold...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Actually hold on a minute here. The Woods can't hold their secrets anymore. So what happened to the corpse of Velvet? I kinda assume that when the Hour Velvet died she had managed to crawl back to the Woods for her end and had her body/secrets taken by the Woods. The remains of a Moth/Heart...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Umm, does get your hooves dirty count as the only requirement for long expeditions? Because I don't think that's the case which would leave us with only three Velvet ap on helping Cadance at most. (and no Mareinette ap which I heavily suspect is worth around two Velvet ap on this) Besides...

    We also have Analyse your options regarding the Changeling Colony which probably should be done this turn.

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Why would we do such a thing though? If we wanted to deal with Windy just have Selene scry and use Smiles free assault on him. Like, I'm not seeing a good reason to be putting our investigators on Windy when we need a Bureau action on investigating our options for fighting Changelings and are...

    Errr, where are you pulling that from? Because the closest comparison is something the QM said about a Grail Influence which is something completely different to having Mareinette run Equestria to free up Cadance.

    You underestimate Mareinette's power. Running Equestria so Cadance has free time is her speciality.

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Given how Mareinette's probably worth around 4 Velvet ap due to the Celestia situation I'm pretty sure Mareinette's going to be too busy running the kingdom to go off adventuring. Cost is a real concern though. Personally I trust Axe can get the book all by herself (her expedition bonus is...

    We need Mareinette on Celestia.

    Oh it would be after the Church expedition for sure. Once we are much better prepared. Good chance we won't get around to it which is a shame.
