天下制覇

And sex toys. Mostly sex toys.

I’m tired of waiting for a decent raw.

Also, I’m somewhat itchy, but I guess that’s neither here nor there.

Impressions:

And here’s most of the rest of Arawn’s harem. One more wife, two more sex toys. Sadly, the (eventual) new wife is Ermin. Epona and Limwris are forever stuck at dutch wife status. At least Epona sells you equipment. Limwris is just some plushy thing to sleep with whenever Arawn gets bored.

Amusingly, after I was complaining a bit about all the mystery they were making about Pwyll (remembering that he’s in the bloody OP), this episode started off with him and Arawn chatting and they were all over making sure everybody knew that Arthur was Pwyll’s descendant this week. We even got the first hints of Arthur’s hatred for the Holy Spirits a bit ahead of time. I’m not complaining though. This portion of the game drags quite a bit as they go out hunting about 18 times in a row before anything else important happens. First boars, then crab, then more boars, then more crab, then sea elves… well… you get the picture.

All in all though, just a slow episode mostly focusing on the backstory of the whole elf thing as well as introducing some future plot points that’ll be more important eventually. I’m a little sad that they didn’t show the fight against the CG crabs, but then I remember that they’d be fighting CG crabs and think that we probably came out of it just fine.

Brief Summary:

After Morgan professes her disbelief in elves and cowers from some birds, they arrive at a castle shrouded in fog. Arawn offers Arthur a choice, to keep running, or to stay here and make this their home and fight for it. Arthur chooses fighting. Duh. Arawn commands the gates open, and they find a pair of elves inside. The busty one is Limwris and the mentally handicapped loli is Ermin. After greeting Ogam (all the bitches love Ogam), they realize who Arawn is and are a bit stunned. Learning that Arthur and Riannon are Pwyll’s descendants is icing.

Limwris shows the main group around while the rest of Gael squats in the abandoned buildings. The Holy Spirits come up in the conversation and Arthur gets pissy to the point of storming off. Morgan explains that Arthur’s father was killed in front of him by a Holy Spirit shrouded in white light. I wonder who that could be.

Arthur and Arawn are exploring a building that appears to be an abandoned shop. When Arthur tries to take a spear, a magical glyph activates and paralyzes them. The storekeeper, Epona, shows up and beats them before realizing that it really is Arawn. Epona later takes them all out hunting for crabs with a special whistle. Morgan blows it extra hard and summons a giant swarm of EVIL CG CRABS.

After the slaughter and subsequent feasting, Arawn wanders up to a grave on a cliff. Riannon follows him and tells him a sun legend as they watch the sunset. Arawn tells her that he actually has spoken with the person in that legend before wandering back to the camp.

A fleet of ships sails around with Gaius at the prow.
