This is part 2 of my series on Dragalia Lost. I covered the gameplay mechanics last time. Today I’m telling the first part of the story. So, there’s a lot of story in Dragalia Lost. I won’t be able to cover every event, dragon story, and adventurer story here as it’d just take too much […]

Video version! Slog? What slog?! We’re talking about The Path of Daggers today, and I’m excited for this one. I’ve been holding off on discussing logistics for a couple of books now, and now we finally have the perfect opportunity. I almost covered this topic for A Crown of Swords, but I’m glad that I
