Cyrus, Chapter 1

In keeping with traveling clockwise, I visit Atlasdam next and start Cyrus' story.

I wasn't sure where the story was going with Cyrus, or how he would be motivated to leave Atlasdam on a journey, but they made it work, though his journey doesn't seem as important or pressing as Ophelia. Still she's probably grateful for the company and his analytical skills.

As for the story itself, the Headmaster is an asshole, and I wouldn't be surprised if he and Cyrus cross, uh, staves at some point. I love that Chapter 1 was like a logic puzzle. Therese getting Cyrus in trouble didn't really work for me if she likes him as much as she states, and she almost assuredly the cloaked figure following him.

I feel like Cyrus' chapter was full of lore, and found myself wondering if I missed as much in Ophelia's chapter.

Overall, I give Cyrus Chapter 1 a...

5/10

Not quite as important a quest as Ophelia, and so it loses the motivation factor.
