-E97: Smacking Balls - Metagaming

What this episode covers

The selection process goes on for the selection of the next royal Dip to marry the incumbent Grand Chip, Malvolian Ashlyn Desdemona Croy or Ash as we generally know her. Secrets and favors are exchanged to gain favor in this continuing high stakes game of whimsy. Warchief Graknak of sORCrates is taking attacks from two fronts, Silas, the liquid Mirror, strikes Graknak's ball out to oblivion off the edge of the map and therefore back to the beginning dragon statue. Whereupon Valerius, Emperor of the Kingdom of Byzantium, bribes a servant to sabotage Graknak even further by having the dragon statue swallow Graknak's ball. Meanwhile, Silas clears the 4th hoop, and secure Ash's third highest favor, the Main Course! With 5 more hoops to go, this is still anyone's game. Capitain Thorn trailing only slightly behind having cleared hoop 3, Princess Julian up to Hoop 2, and trailing in dead last new Lich CEO of the PNC Kaleen. Choosing instead to attempt to lure Ash with anti-culture rule breaking bad boy vibes.
