I don't like to criticize the efforts of others, and usually I can extrapolate a story by playing all around a scene and doing background research, but this was a critical "life-and-death" interlude in which a child's sense of safety and belonging hung in the balance (albeit an obscure and possibly unencountered alternate scenario for players who moved along briskly to Bazel)... Well, I didn't want to screw it up now, or have to go back later and clean it up. Tom and Eris are key figures in Feda, at least early on. I suspect that Eris survives the path-2 storyline in AREA-1 and appears in a subsequent chapter, so I will need to play this alternate version of the game after I've refined matters quite a bit deeper.
Yes, by the time we finish posting spots, it may seem like a significant body of work, but things aren't nearly this off target through about 95 percent of the script I've encountered so far.
I appreciate the hard work and best efforts of all those who have helped Bongo` advance the Feda project to this point. We'll get there, but be patient with me. I will probably need most of the six months to do my part well.
