Don't worry, your life comes first, we all understand that.
Uh, how about you offer me votes? So we can finish this game?
But democracy is haaaard! Flexibility and Reflexes I suppose. Oh and I'd also suggest cake
Spoiler
I'm not sure I remember right, but isn't the rest of the game kind of a coast to the finish after Togami?
Flexibility and Reflexes, though I'm not sure at the moment what mood alteration would help with that.
I vote Ciphering and Archery.
Sense and Resist Magic, assuming we can max them both out with a single lesson. Because I don't think learning anything new is going to make an actual difference to the rest of the game at this point, and it'd be nice to have a category of skills fully completed.
Edit: Weekend activity is anything that keeps us Willful to aid the above lessons.
I'm gonna third Sense and Resist Magic.
Sense Magic and Resist Magic 'til they're full.I happen to prefer that ending.
Chapter 47, Week 38, Mood: Willful
or
Antepenultimate! That's a fun word
Spoiler
Alright! Sorry for the delays, boys and girls.

Let's even things out a bit...
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0012.png
And a quick look at our skills because...I've gone mad with the power of convenient screenshots.
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0013.png
And now we're super-durable!
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0015.png
And we now know everything we can learn about magic...
I sometimes suspect that 100 in a skill doesn't make Elodie a master of it; just someone with skill completely unexpected of a 14-year old girl who's been studying this for less than a year.
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0016.png
I dunno, game. You tell me.
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0017.png
Ooh, it looks like we can talk to Julianna about something. That may be a fun diversion for these final weeks.
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0018.png
Our mood. Things are almost wrapped up. Would you believe that this is our penultimate vote?
My, how time flies...
Don't think I've ever tried talking to Julianna here, so try that.
Julianna, than dance the week away.
Julianna, then double public speaking
Jullivana then dance
Visit Julianna
SpoilerI forget, did we get the dialog about the priestess being a lumen? If not, that's likely it. If so, it might be something about EvilDude.
For training, do Flexibility and then Dance.
Visit Juliana, and learn Ciphering and...
DECORATION!
Just wanted to let you know I found this page around when you first started and have been lurking pretty much daily for new updates. Thoroughly enjoyed the Let's Play. :smallsmile:
Guess I should give input at least once...
We should Visit Julianna. Then go with dance. Because why not.
SpoilerFor the most part, but I've managed to wind up in trouble by botching a particular act of retaliation. I'm pretty sure it happened entirely after the invasion.
SpoilerIdentifying the poisoner but letting the poisoner massacre Elodie's agents caused a popular revolt. Picking another option would prevent the revolt. I just loaded a save from week 36, and there the botching didn't cause a revolt.
Fortunately I couldSpoilerwade into the crowd of rebels, killing them in droves, until the survivors broke and ran.
Then the people cheered at my coronation.
Visit Julianna, then train Public Speaking so that we can give a nice speach at the coronation.
Visit Juliana and double up on Public Speaking.
"Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight the nasty goblins..."
One demeanor, one speaking.
Chapter 48, Week 39, Mood: Willful
or
Hey, are we going to cut next chapter in half to end on 50?
Spoiler
Alrighty, let's see what Julianna's got for us, or what we've got for Julianna.
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0002.png
Ah, Elodie noticed something...
And neglected to tell us. Naughty, naughty Elodie! Bad viewpoint character!
How are we supposed to operate when you don't tell us what you know?
"What is it?"
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0003.png
"Wait a second," you may be asking...Actually, you won't be, since at least half of you have already seen this scene and don't need to ask anything, "What priestess?"
Well, remember that time a loooong time ago, towards the beginning of the LP, when Elodie saw Julianna with some priestess and they were holding hands?
That priestess.
...
Ok, so that's a little obscure. So I've reached into my files for a picture, since we'll never see her face here.
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0001.png
This is Selene. She comes and asks you to let Julianna out of prison if you put her there, sometimes mentors you, helps you sinks ships with magic (she's the easiest third Lumen for your team, but with Lucille, you can have 4 Lumens going at once) and tells you about Krakens you may have unleashed upon your kingdom and what to do with them. (She's doing the last of these at the time of this screenshot).
I feel like aiding in the establishment of her character now, for something in the next update.
Back to the present, however.
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0004.png
Now, here is a question for you:
Julianna is all but explicitly stated to be a lesbian according to our various gossip tabloids/lessons. We have seen her holding this lady's hand as they talk in the garden, and Julianna uses the pretense of her classes with us to teach us magic. While this is apparently a secret relationship, even Elodie should be smart enough to realize that they know each other.
So why is Elodie telling her teacher, the one who taught her how to sense a Lumen, that her teacher's friend (Elodie's version)/ secret magical girlfriend (The Version of Thinking People) is a lumen, like this is a thing the teacher did not already know?
The logical one is that Elodie is just not smart, but that's waaaaay too easy. Maybe Elodie just thinks she's better at magic-sensing than Julianna.
But she's probably just dumb.
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0005.png
Or this. But, uh... Lumens sort of get rocks thrown at them in certain ending paths, Elodie. Just think about that.
"You didn't need to know."
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0006.png
I feel like there is more to that last line than we'll probably ever know. Oh, well.
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0007.png
Oh, yeah. There is that.
Well, it's not like crystals can be destroyed.
"Except for your ancestor."
And yours, Elodie. Don't forget that bit.
And apparently Lucille's.And several other members of the nobility, including a few more family members...But we don't learn about those on this path (one we kind of don't learn about in general). We're on a happier path.
Not to mention foreign Lumens like Togami...
And there's that criminal guy we killed...
Actually, a better question is 'who doesn't have a crystal/Lumen potential?'
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0008.png
And then Elodie sulks off to her room.
I bet some of you are a little confused. This scene isn't linked to time. It's linked to scores and activities. First, you need a very high (I dunno if it's 100 off the top of my head, but it's close) Sense Magic. Then you need to go and do some religious activities, namely Attending Service. Then you can get this prompt to talk to Julianna.
The game tell you none of this, of course!
Anyway...
We have a tie!
Sort of.
We've got, like, a half-tie.
Today, I'm splitting the difference.
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0010.png
Wee, bouncing!
Also, a new costume! We shall try it on for our coronation!
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0011.png
Ooh, getting somewhere, I see.
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0012.png
But we're just gonna buzzkill.
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0013.png
Eh, who needs to worry about things looking nice? We're almost out of the game!
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0014.png
Well, it's not going to be for a while, right?
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0015.png
Whew!
If we were not engaged, we could pick our future most likely husband (if we hadn't pissed him or his family off) now, and under certain circumstances, we could break it off, possibly to marry someone else.
http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/z...enshot0016.png
And then it's the weekend! Hi, weekend.
You're the last weekend. The very last.
How the time flies....
What shall we do with our last choices of the LP, everyone?
What's the best way for us to see Elodie off?
Lets get her cheerful if possible and finish by doing nothing at all for classes
Okay, the conversation did what I hoped it would. Pretty sure this is part of getting the best ending for Julianna.
Attend Court and double public speaking.
Attend court, public speaking and decoration.
