in the aquarium, straight up "looking at it" and by "it". lets just say. the fish.
Do you have any things you hope will happen in 5th anniversary in CRK?
A good story :')
Not to be pessimistic, but I don't have much faith in how devsis are going to handle the final chapter given so many things that have been swept under the rug, not elaborated on, and/or set aside for other things. With so many characters at play, they're going to have to balance things out enough to make satisfying arcs/arc endings, character screentime that makes sense, a conclusion that doesn't feel hamfisted/forced/deus ex machina-ed, etc etc... and I just don't think they'll do that. I don't expect a literary masterpiece out of these upcoming chapters, mind you, but knowing what makes the fans happy etc, they'll lean on some things more than others
The hotel update feels like a sign of things to come, for example. A chapter about the beasts that heavily favored shadow milk (yes he's the de facto leader of sorts but he's also the fan favorite, people love when he talks). Or even Milennial Tree's chapter, which was a half-clipshow for the Ancients and an infodump of things that are kind of given (and could've been their own thing separate from the elemental story). If the argument is that they're trying to get information in before the DE updates, then the implication is that they're going to favor certain elements over others - and in a chapter where everyone they've built up are support to get their big payoff... I dunno, do you think there'll be anything substantial for the CoD? Or Pitaya Dragon? Or anyone who isn't an Ancient/Beast/gingergang/Creme republic (though i can see them being in the background for the most part as well)?
I hope to be proven wrong, I really do!! But the alleged three months of story might not be enough to tell everything, especially with what has (or hasn't) been established over the course of years. I've already voiced my concerns about Dark Enchantress herself, after all
