Summary

As the northern edge of the Castle Eschatonica grows closer, the adventurers within begin to sense a change in the dungeon around them. While the Celestial Echoes that make up the hallways and rooms of the castle were once neatly separated, now it seems that the people and places from the various past Perpetuan worlds have begun to overlap and interact. In search of information, Brontë, Veile, Elena, and Caoimhe seek help from an otherworldly machine. Meanwhile, on the other side of the castle, a gang of otherworldly beings seeks help from the trio of Antistrophe, Jonathan, and Uncle Nicky.

So, I HAVE to know… who is everyone's favorite Agony? Back in Imago 2: Ancestral Fault, I HATED Miss Mephitic, because I just thought compared to the other Agonies, she was a really boring design. Who cares about a bunch of vines!? But with the music box/ballerina re-design in this game… I think she might have jumped to the top of the list! I guess we have to wait and see if she keeps it going forward…

My favorite is definitely Melo. That guy seems like he'd be cool to chill out with and listen to music with.

Wow, color me surprised Unforgiven! I thought you'd be an Ira guy, through and through. 

TheUnforgivenIII

Why the hell would I like that stupid little idiot baby?

Alukard83

Well, now I think it might be a bad idea to tell you why. As for my favorite, this is the first time I'm really meeting them, but I gotta say, I really love Connie. I love it when something references something else, you know? And she's sort of a walking (well, rolling) reference machine!

What's An Agony? The strategy guide says they're like equipable spells but it sounds like they're NPCS too!?

Give me a D-10 in here.

1:24.2

Okay, Mabella.

1:29.3

Mabella is an M-PIC and cannot do the travel roll. That's a good, that's a good bit though.
