Well, we had a C-section because my wife's blood pressure was really high and wasn't coming down, and then the baby started getting really lethargic and wasn't moving like she should.
Wife did great, baby is doing well, all things considered. Her oxygen level is low, which is expected considering she's early. --- https://imgur.com/WqDcNNq https://imgur.com/89Z5jrB ... Copied to Clipboard!

She's in the NICU for the time being until her lungs develop to the point that she can breathe on her own. She also has jaundice (which isn't uncommon), so she's being treated for that, too.

Well, as I mentioned in one of the Finale write-ups, you can tell the translation and editing kind of went out to lunch later in the game so I suppose that doesn't surprise me! ugh, did that really happen again? I remember you could tell in CS3 the exact moment Hatsuu had to step away because things just sunk. and i am also in the middle of a WoT book 4 reread i should pick up the pace or something >_> Also BABY YAY CONGRATS!

Honestly, the typo and wrong or missing words situation is probably the worst of the Trails games but you can definitely see the frequency pick up towards the end of the game.

They told us today that she could be in here up to three weeks, but it could be sooner. They said the main problem NICU babies have is learning how to eat since they're usually being fed through tubes and IVs, so if she picks it up quickly, she could get out of here sooner than that.

Trails into Reverie (postgame) - Made it to the Depths of the
Exploring the Stratums: Minigames: Quiz, Maniac Mode: Oh, I guess I have to retract some of my gripes from Brutal Mode from back when I thought that was the final difficulty. Now we got those OST questions I live for lol. Daydreams: This was a pretty great batch. Brights: road trip. Instructors: Ash: Rean: Got two Trial Door challenges left and then I think it's time to go complete the Reverie Corridor. Unless there's a post-postgame. Which idk there might be. But based on the Combat Log this seems like the end of the Trial Doors at least so unless they make up a new tab I would not expect more floors.

Warbreaker beated! Man, that was a really good book. I still never totally got the magic system, but they made it work. The selling point is definitely the characters for me though. Really strong cast, and the story uses them well.
I guess I'll start on The Stormlight Archive next since that's what follows on the bibliography. --- https://imgur.com/WqDcNNq https://imgur.com/89Z5jrB ... Copied to Clipboard!

Trails Into Reverie postgame beated.
Reverie Corridor Endgame: And one final trip to the Daydreams. Technically one Daydream but as anyone who's seen it will understand, I'll be dividing it into three parts. Rean: Renne: Elaine: So that's Trails into Reverie, I guess! I liked it quite a bit, even if there are a few decisions Falcom made that are just... no. and now, in the words that dowolf says are extremely poorly translated, i must look forward to look back - and that means looking back to the xenoblade 3 dlc finally after all this time.

Also SSS still the best core cast, IMO. C's group is very good though, yes, and would be second place. C > Lapis > Nadia > Swin.

dowolf: oh noooooooooooooooo. Argh. Well, in spite of that it was still probably my favorite daydream of the game. But ughhh.
MacArrowny posted... I might rank Nadia over the whole SSS... Tio's pretty good though.I would definitely take Randy and Tio over C's group. Probably my new mancrush Lloyd too. all of c's group leave elie in the dust though. For the Liberl gang I was counting the core as the FC party. If you make it just Estelle and Joshua since it's basically a rotating party until halfway through SC they'd win but that feels like cheating. dowolf posted... C > Lapis > Nadia > Swin is just wrongI mean, I could have put some extra >>>s to separate Nadia and Swin but I actually considered it and went "naw i don't want to humiliate swin that much, he's okay" but probably should have at least one given that he's definitely a tier under the other three. Like I said, the others I could swap around depending on mood - Lapis or Nadia could easily end up in the top spot depending on how I'm feeling. --- May you find your book in this place.

C's party is great but I still don't think I like them as much as the SSS or even New Class VII.
Liberl has the best individual characters but for some reason I have more difficulty thinking of them as a group.

Kurt (and Musse) dragging down New Class VII but they're in the conversation for sure. Juna/Altina/Ash are all super-solid and some of the best characters in the arc.

I agree that the first book is the weakest, but imo that just speaks to the strengths of the later volumes. Heck, it also might be my favorite book 1 of a "big" fantasy epic? So many start off on the wrong foot (a part of me loves how the Dark is Rising Sequence is named after the second book), and The Way of Kings absolutely does not.
