OK, I think I'm very much TLSed out for the immediate future. I have some ideas on how to make the last page of the war spreadsheet less unreadable, but these can wait for the revision for 0.44.3,

I'm still waiting for someone to look carefully at it and find the megaton spec bomb fuel, but I can wait.

General speccy thoughts:

It's looking like the new character who isn't going to be named yet based on in game file only information, the one who likes messing with Mestan, is the Renthorian Tower Walker of mischief of whom Xerces spoke.

In a completely unrelated note, one of the YouTube channels I subscribe to released this video that might interest people.

We can also conclude that the high pitched voiced thief who should have appeared in this update but has a relentlessly bugged event, the one who was first teased in the Gathering, is not the same individual.

And we now know that our friend the GoM is indeed Mithyn, giving us the first real piece of information about IDs of the folks in the Ch 2 Interstitial.

We've now met Tanurak, although most players have yet to experience what a pain in the ass he can be. We also have had Ulrissa tell us there's someone else in the Tower who's just as bad. That's probably the only unaccounted for Arclentian.

Apparently dragons did indeed used to be a thing in the TLS world. Presumably the magical particles that Tanurak destroyed to starve them into non-existence were G.R.R. Martin's work ethic.

It's interesting that the Tower Walker from Zirantia turned out to be King Kanfour and not the butler, which was the consensus choice, IIRC. It might have been significant that non-Incubus King Kings seem to become Tower Walkers, but it's made clear that Kanfour became a Tower Walker before becoming King.

One note that may have interested only me was that Janine mentioned in passing that Darghelon and Gheldaron were apparently female preference inheritance monarchies, "matriarchal". That implies Ghenalon probably is too. I remember there was a conversation that Altina had about the political structures of the Western elf kingdoms, but I'm drawing a blank on both the context and content.

Joking aside, it's a shame the Sage of Ghenalon got Skullcrushered just to demonstrate that the "Don't Trust the Anak" club is on to something. Of course, we don't know that the Sage wasn't actually incredibly evil. Maybe he was mean to children, the elderly and dogs.

I wonder what the hell those of us who now have two demonic seeds are going to do with the second, start a commercial demon farm?

Smart money also says that we've now met 4-5 out of 6 of the Others in the harem. Mithyn, Sabitha, Ulrissa, Wendis and she who must not be named, although the over and under that that last one is the final combat party member are pretty good betting odds too. Then there's possibly Zelica. We're probably going to see the Mother of the Elves get Kanfoured.
