In yet another attempt to have content for this website (a new year’s resolution maybe?) I decided to do a themed mixtape every month. Why not? That’s at least twelve posts! This month’s theme: The FaLaNa mix, a bunch of songs that feature Non-Lexical Vocables. You might know them as nonsense syllables. Words that are Read More
I know we’re a few hours in, but I got a late start! My Saturday sleep brain is used to hitting the snooze and throwing my phone across the bed in the wee morning hours, what can I say? Anyway, once I finally awakened, I let the doggo in for cuddles and finally finished up Read More
I signed up for a readathon! Here’s an intro to the blog! Read More
I head on across the way to another exclamation point and find none other than Alkibiades, fresh off another successful party and still super drunk. We are going to bask in each other’s hotness for a moment before he gives me an escort mission. Read More
We are back! There is a new console and a new Assassin’s Creed game, but since the latter is particularly difficult to get a hold of this time around, I’m just going to cool my jets and concentrate on finishing my long-form written version of a Twitch stream! Today: Myths are Real! Read More
I have to talk to a man called Gorgias (who may be this Gorgias?) here in Boeotia. I’m just going to assume this is pronounced like gorgeous before I can hear anybody pronounce it! (Update: it’s not, but I’m still going with it.) After defeating a huntress camp, we find Gorgias in a weirdly modern Read More
I wander around Elis for a while, wreaking havoc on the Athenian forces. When I finally get to the actual Olympic Valley, I’m notified that I shouldn’t get caught doing anything illegal there. Great. We all know how good I am at sneaking and not doing illegal things. There are a bunch of new quests here that I can do before we get back to the story too, so let’s see who wants me to commit crimes so they don’t have to! Read More
Since I’ve stumbled my way back into the mom quest, I’ll just continue to look for Phoenix. I finish all the locations on the island first. I do find a sweet bow that turns all my plain arrows into poison arrows. After a minute I realize that this may be too cool of a thing and worry that I have another cursed object. It is not! Hells yeah! Just some sweet loot. nice. I get dressed up in my Sunday best (upgrade my Snake armor) to visit mom. She’s having a meeting of minds about protecting the town that I walk in on. Obviously she’s stunned to see her dead child. Read More
If there is any luck maybe this piratical quest will be less educational than the last one. I am on the Isle of Misfortune today. Doing favours for pirates because I am being extorted by the pirate queen, Xenia. She’s just going to tell me my mom got on a boat and went to some other undisclosed location, isn’t she? I will have run out of clues at this point. Read More
I fast travel to Demokritos and he tells me the tales of three theorems that will lead to great treasure, Zeno’s Paradox, the Pythagorean Theorem—no need to search for that one my dude it’s A² + B² = C². You’re welcome, and thank you, math class. The third one is the Golden Ratio. He says he will pay me for my help. Read More
