Dagsion Errands Done, Peter Next
A short session: the Armorer and Shop tutorial errands, and the point where I put the controller down.
1 min readSpoilers: structure only
Short session tonight. Finished the Armorer and the Shop tutorial errands in Dagsion, and the next main-story step is meeting Peter at the inn. That is exactly where I put the controller down.
Nothing dramatic happened, which is sort of the point of writing it down. The thing I lose between sessions is never the big decision — I remember those, they were interesting. It is the small "wait, what was I in the middle of", and that one costs me ten minutes of wandering every single time. So: errands done, inn next.
One note to myself about recruits while it is fresh. I keep hovering over Noctula because she is there, and I have to keep reminding myself that available and useful to this team are two different tests. She passes the second one as it happens — Brawling is a job nobody in Cai's core does — but I want to be recruiting her for that reason, and not because a name appeared on a list and my brain filed it under jobs to do.
Where this ended up
The journal keeps the session. These carry the conclusion.
How I'm Playing Fortune's Weave Without Optimizing the Fun Out of It
Understand every system; deliberately optimize only the ones that make the game less repetitive. Finish the game before trying to perfect it, and treat replay as permission to experiment rather than a punishment for missing something.
