"Will she be useful, though?" Navi wondered as she looked at the numbers. "Alice's level is much higher than anyone else's but you've already got more focused coverage for both Almighty and Curse, plus instakills are kinda meh. You've said yourself that they're not particularly useful. Our cognition might even screw the odds up even more against us in a rigged casino like this."

FFM 2024 24: Bomb Soup
"Waiter, there's a bomb in my soup."
FFM 2024 23: Thumbs Down
When the description said that the game would suck you in, I didn't think it would mean it literally rather than keeping you hooked.
FFM 2024 22: Restoration
Most of the academia that had followed first the investigation into the gem that had ruined Fieldentown and the surrounding forest areas — named Miasma Gem based on witness descriptions — and then the efforts to try to cleanse the rotted land so nature could heal had given up on the area.
FFM 2024 21: Liberation
The magic in the Harmony Blade thrummed with unease. Even Ria was queasy as we walked through the rotten forest filled with smoke-like miasma. I could not help but doubt our ability to deal with this job. "Is this a bad idea? I feel like we're out of our league here."
FFM 2024 20: Read the fine print

Akira took a deep breath, lowered his hand back to his pocket and said, "I saw the world through your eyes and it was one hell of a view."
FFM 2024 18: Lowering the standards
I stared at my nemesis through the one-way mirror, growling as some pathetic hawker managed to cheat him out of a pouch of gold. "Have you ever considered that you may be aiming too high?" Diginn asked as he sharpened his axe.
FFM 2024 16: A Fair Trade
The Trader loomed as I knelt. Their crystalline eyes gleamed in numerous colors, the most striking ones in colors of peridot, citrine and azurite, as they observed the package in my hands.
FFM 2024 15: Degradation
I won the election fair and square. The gem stayed in a box for the duration of the election time. Somehow, the shifted reality was very much for the restoration of environment; it seemed that many factory workers who had been unhappy had enjoyed the restoration work at the field. The change worried me, but I reminded myself that there was no going back. The investigators came and went, never apparently finding the gem despite the mages that started walking around the town.
