Perpetua 44: Escape the Rumbling Castle! 04
Friends at the Table
As the crew of the Little Snail and the Sourcerot investigators continue to delve the depths of the Castle Eschatonica, new voices are heard in the air. For those in the western half of the castle, the voices are brusque and severe, shaped to fit the prepared phrases necessary for a most hospitable war. But in the east, the voices lilt and shine, like dewy petals in a breeze. Is such a sound an invitation or something more nefarious… This week on perpetua: Escape the Rumbling Castle! 04 Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.06] Some Feedback [Page 66 of 68] TheUnforgivenIII So uhhhh does anyone have...

Marielda 10th Anniversary Soundtrack Vinyl Available to Pre-Order Now!
Friends at the Table
For Semiotician Uklan Tel, the discovery of the object in the vaults of the New Archives was a gift he could scarcely have hoped for. The Holy City, walled and impenetrable, had fascinated him for so long. He'd pored over the Marieldan documents and artifacts that the Archives had collected over the years so many times that his name repeated in the access cards like a prayer . But here was something new - misfiled, overlooked - that had evaded his eye all this time. He was starting to take notes for a book. We could not be more excited to unveil the Marielda 10th Anniversary Vinyl Soundtrack...

As the northern edge of the Castle Eschatonica grows closer, the adventurers within begin to sense a change in the dungeon around them. While the Celestial Echoes that make up the hallways and rooms of the castle were once neatly separated, now it seems that the people and places from the various past Perpetuan worlds have begun to overlap and interact. In search of information, Brontë, Veile, Elena, and Caoimhe seek help from an otherworldly machine. Meanwhile, on the other side of the castle, a gang of otherworldly beings seeks help from the trio of Antistrophe, Jonathan, and Uncle...

Friends at the Table
In the depths of the Castle Eschatonica, the true beckonings called to the travelers of the Dragon Path. Led across the ether under divine shadow and holy light, to things that aren’t, but which might yet be: New more peaceful lives. Freedom from obligation and duty. Different, more adventurous histories. A key to a door which itself beckons. The power to protect those they care for. Power for power’s sake alone. With these behind them, the two groups re-emerge into the halls of the Castle. In the western wing, three figures push forward into the passageways of this transcendent...

It moved towards Antistrophe, Caoimhe, and Nicky through the dark as something other than itself. A creature of guile and hunger, whose taste for life is well developed and whose limbs are the limbs of others.

Alukard83
So does anyone know what happens if you don’t resist the beckonings?
TheUnforgivenIII
That depends on which one it is, right? Don’t you just get the thing?
Alukard83
But aren’t some of them really big changes? Like sure, if you get the pet landshark, you just get the companion added to your sheet. But if Elena retires to takeover her family’s bar, doesn’t wouldn’t that like, end the story for her?
FriendOfNei
Woah, I didn’t get either of those options when I hit the True Beckonings chapter. What the heck! For me, Elena was offered the chance to build her own megadungeon, and there was nothing shark related for anyone (land or sea or otherwise). Anyone know what’s going on here?I promise I’m not freaking out and leaving this time, I just really want to know what I missed!
xXZelgadyskXx
Maybe it’s random? Has anyone tried loading up a save from before the Beckonings to see if it’s always the same?
TheUnforgivenIII
I just tried and it SUCKS, it takes SO LONG. The only save point is before you meet Gnova so you have to wait through THAT WHOLE UNSKIPPABLE CUTSCENE and all that text before you get to even SEE the Beckonings again, and it was all the same for me anyway.
Doom_Tree_Anne
Since the “True Beckonings” are meant to relate to what someone really desires deep down inside, maybe it’s tied to how you’ve been playing?
TheDiamondRanger
The official guide says it’s just random, so it’s probably just random, right?
FriendOfNei
Maybe… But sometimes those guides get stuff wrong. That’s part of what made me want to do write my own FAQs to begin with. When I played the first Alteros game, the official guide said that you could only get the Ill Wings of Deadwind OR the Black Wings of Night, but not only was it totally possible to get both, you needed both to get the best epilogue.
Which is really my question (and I’m not sure if I trust that the official guide knows the right answer, sorry Diamond): Do you think the game punishes you for following the beckonings with a worse ending, or do you think you can accept what they say on their face?
Doom_Tree_Anne
Hmm. Well, this is my own opinion, but I sort of think some of them are their own punishment, ya know? Like, it’s the difference between you getting to write the walkthrough you wanted to see in the world vs just buying it ready made. Actually getting to write it is its own reward.

Sounds like someone who can’t afford the strategy guide lol
