Medb had the MC record a video on his phone telling his parents/the Templars where he is.

How that was delivered (and whether or not there was some level of Alfar arrogance in the delivery or even an intro video from Medb with some gloating) we don't know.

Given the way some Templars freak out about not controlling something (William - let's go to war right now - Nolan), there could even be accusations of betraying the Templars - even though the MC is Not a Templar and was in the dark about all things Templar until very recently.

The writing for the different path possibilities in CH 6 will be complex but I trust Ceolag to nail it!

Cheers!! :coffee:
That's right. I had forgotten about that. Maybe they didn't believe it. We shall no more in ch6 when the times comes. I just wonder about a clash with Templars when the MC is with the Alfar. Would they put him at risk again?

I don't think the Templars would put the MC at risk when he is being returned - he is a potential gold mine of information, having spent time with the Alfar and returned alive - something no human we know of can claim since the days of Ponce De Leon.

(OC - How I hope we have Significant agency in choosing what to share/not share with the Templars - like not mentioning all the sword training and the final lessons from Oberon, the Elven King).

Now - I think the third party would Love to kill him and stage his 'murder and betrayal' by the Alfar to help silence the voices of reason among the Templars...

There are too many possibilities and Only Ceolag can turn my many 'what if's and what about that's' into what is.

I'm Really hoping for a CH 6 December release - something nicely wrapped up with a bow and under our Christmas trees!

Cheers!! :coffee:

Many possibilities and that's one of the things that makes this game fun and engaging. You cant help but speculate.

That....
Was a horrible place to end.
Too many much feels.
I honestly thought it ended in a good spot the feels would of been there no matter what. I honestly don't look forward to playing Chapter 5 now anytime I do a replay. Not that it was a bad update far from it ( I think it was the best chapter yet) but the feels are going to come back everytime

Play the chapter up until after the sex scene and don't play the day after. You'll be fine.

Just played ep 5 and I see that dev took the inspiration from certain acting lessons *wink*
Shit like this just hits different. Especially if u play modded version and it says "Finnabair path" for certain decisions
Overall - great update, can't wait to play the next episode.

Hm, maybe but I don't think so, Finnabair never was a LI, she was a sidegirl, The LI s are in the in the Chapter ends review.
there is for shure a path where you can have sex with everything what don't climbs up a tree, but not with all example Kate and Kari are exclusive, and If you go with Anissa, you miss oportunitys with, to build relationship with Elea and Fiona, (I don't remeber if with Kaija aswell).
For me it seemed less cruel than in That AVN what you mention.

only more cruel in the sense I got more attached to Finnabair than the others in the game he mentioned hell I liked her more than alot of LI in other games. If she wasn't a side girl for 1 chapter would of put her above Kaija.

I know she wasn't a main LI, but I thought the game would have side routs that don't end up being just fuck fests (like BaDIK).
Well, glad I still have Medb left at least.

"A Father's Sins" have a dead than hit me harder, and is not even a potencial LI (maybe for some).

Dev just got you emotional with her sad story and maybe a chance of a good end and then....BANG!

Honestly Finnabair almost hit me as hard as a certain cliffhanger from a certain mafia game and yet that cliffhanger isn't that sad compared to another character's backstory

Oh yeah, forgot about that one you're right, between that one and Finnabair, is hard to say which was harder, and again they were necessary for the plot

Good Point, why we see MC Bodyguard, and not Jess's ? has she even one ? and why MC and not her ? or was it just because MC moved out of his parents home ?
i made a similar comment and someone made a long sort of reply going off on theology and stuff, but the one thing i understood that actually made sense to me was MC is special. First off templars are a sexist organization, the son is an heir of sorts to the father while the daughter not so much. So it makes sense the templar council would want the leaders son protected with a more permanent and hidden bodyguard. Then consider the parents, they also did not find a babysitter for the sister, but remember the MC is special. I think the parents kind of expect the MC to be special, they show surprise that he was resistant to the alfar jedi mind tricks, yet their follow up behavior was more like they expected something of the sort from the MC. I mean he has mad king arthur sword in the stone vibes.

It's the mark of a good writer to get the reader so emotional over the loss of a character. Ceolag has some skills. LOF, AL, AFS, and a few other games were good story telling as well. Its for VNs like these that I am here. Porn is porn and you can get it anywhere, good story telling, that is much harder to find.
