The Road Ahead: First Royal Capital
After vanquishing the Mushroom Empire’s demon lord in Episode 3, Xylo and the team are setting their sights on the First Royal Capital’s defensive stronghold. The anticipation is a slow burn, like waiting for water to boil. It seems we’ll finally get more insight into Teoritta’s character and backstory, potentially shedding light on the Goddess herself.
Here’s the official Episode 4 synopsis: “Xylo and his group arrive at Murid Fortress, the defensive stronghold of the First Royal Capital. In the midst of the lively tavern, Patausche Kivia approaches Xylo and Teoritta. And from her lips, the intentions of the military and the temple regarding Goddess Teoritta are revealed.”
Will there be more action in the next episode?
The synopsis suggests a shift from outright combat to political intrigue. Think of it as a chess match, not a boxing ring. While the previous episodes focused on battles, it appears Episode 4 will lay the foundation for future conflicts by unveiling hidden agendas and power dynamics between the military and the temple.
