Well I promised an update after I’ve played the anecdote so here I am.
All I can honestly say, after going through a rollercoaster of emotions, is that dear fucking god, that was a mixed bag. Some of it was extremely spot on and caused me to just kind of.. freeze. Some of it was so blatantly wrong.
I knew that I had met A Knight previously to this at a museum, but I really didn’t know how much of an interest he had in me. A Knight, if you ever read this, thank you for all of that, I greatly appreciate it. I hope you also know what holidays are now.
The bits about the previous Fogwalkers was so iffy for me. I adored my father, he was always trying to look after me, even if I barely got to see him. Maybe I did resent him after he died? But I don’t think it was for too long, I just resented the system in the end since if it wasn’t for the system, he wouldn’t have died. The idea of the Fogwalker title also being a decorative title because the fog never got better HURT so much. Again, the fault of the system and government.
I think a lot of the story just existed to hurt me though. That LAST SENTENCE just made me exist in the state of happiness and sadness simultaneously.
And “This is my responsibility, and it is our responsibility” is now etched into my brain forever. Thank you, father, wherever you are. I miss you.
