Pillars of Eternity 1, Part 8: Beneath Caed Nua to Floor 5 and to Dyrwood

This was a bit of a fun time. We talked about Tarisland for a bit, the WoW Rip Off. Yes. Everyone hates Teemo. Accept and embrace this fact. I also learned that the next game brings our party size down to five, which I have mixed feelings about. Guess we'll find out in 20 years when I finally get to Pillars 2. Look, I'm slow.

Anyway, we got through floors 3 through 5 of the Endless Paths, beating a drake and many, many Not Kobolds. We picked up some levels, some bounties, and then passed through Stormwall Gorge to Dyrford Village, where we picked up even more quests and the Grieving Mother. We ended with trying to figure out what we should level her as -- and I think the answer is a dual wield murder machine.

The AI is starting to be a show its issues, and I'm going to be pretty happy with our choices. Our other goal is that once Darimere dings 7, we want to hire up some more mercenaries, because we can hire up to 8, so that means I'm going to fill our roster.
