      I stared nervously at the loading bar, on the precipice of either auto-saving or crashing down upon the desktop littered with icons. Seemingly subconsciously, I scrolled to the depths of a comment section within what appeared to be what some call youtube. My anxiety rose, as the loading bar seemingly appeared to stall - dramatically - just at the precipice. Averting my gaze, I noted a jape by Count Noctilus, threatening to draw my attention into a momentous maelstrom, only to be saved by the auto-save completing and the end turn beginning to crawl by, despite the modifications that had been devised within the Workshop of Steam. The camera was momentarily transfixed, as Count Noctilus had seemingly alt-tabbed himself to follow me, abandoning his siege of Lothern to sail up the river of ash, striking deep into the still heart of Khemri. With auto-resolve in my heart, the scion of Sylvania seemingly retreated back to the youtube comment section, leaving no apparent sign of his appearance, but a Leadership bonus for sea battles, seemingly taunting me as I turned in the direction most know, as southward, to the distinctly land-based threat of Prince Imrik's aerial assault.

    When you're so good at satire that you win an Oscar for the category you're making fun of. 🙌

      It was supposed to have another half season but Lori Henry moved to another country and I think got married. She is working as an occupational therapist for kids now. So I guess she hasn't got time for the show.
