In Which Civilization has a SimCity moment, a bad omen

Hello there, my good friend, kind reader of this post! Happy Friday! Hopefully another beautiful day, maybe we should indeed give it the benefit of the doubt! How are you, my friend? How have you been? I have not write much these days, alas... It is that thing of having some stuff in my head but not being able to take them out to my satisfaction. I mean, we could as well be seeing the collapse of the Civilization franchise, for example. I think I wrote it before here, that I am not optimistic about this title, that their heart (if at all) is in the wrong place for this entry... I could smell the miasma, but now it is clear: reality is even worse than the predictions and projections of before. The Steam consensus, this morning, got as low as 33%, an absolute catastrophic number for the franchise, it is a snapshot of the bad User Interface, the lack of customisation on the game, its mechanics ossifying the main building, or ot is what is implied on even the milder of reviews. I did not h...

In Which I share the part 2 of the Story!

Hello everyone! Happy Monday to you, and good morning/Afternoon!! How are you today and how things are going? As usual, I wish you the best, and hope things are going fine! Today another week of January is starting, which is nice! I think it can be nice indeed! Yesterday rained, which is so nice! I love rain, so much! I hope it rains today as well, eventually, for now it's really hot, it's the height of Summer, but you never know! Before we begin the part 2 of our story, I have a picture to show you guys! It is so beautiful it's of some flowers I've seen recently, quite ordinary flowers, actually, nothing special, but I think they're beautiful, let me show to you, dear reader! They're so geometrical and blossoming, I love it! 


So, after these flowers, that I think are really pleasant, we can proceed to our story!

At 2PM, everything was calm at that place, people were at sleep and the children were doing some mess somewhere away from me. I was looking for something important that I have missed, what it was I can't properly recall. I was searching through the house, focused on finding the object, when I turned my eyes a bit to see a small hallway on a place where it shouldn't be any. That place was supposed to be the bathroom of the living room. That caught my atention greatly, and I even forgot what I was doing previously. Turning my focus to the hallway, I went through it. It was indeed a curious place, and I, in the end, found myself in a room I've never seen before, that vaguely remembered me of another house I've been in previously in my life, but that's another story, moving on... The small place had  two sofas as white as snow  and a small table with a small yellow lamp in it, on the walls I could see a big window, covered in curtains, the kind I found rather curious! But I didn't spend much of my attention there, as things are about to get way, but way more bizarre! As I turned around once more, I found another room, one that as I get inside of it, the bigger it gets. It is made of wood and bricks, with a very vivid tonality of brown with a red twist to it, looking like hair dye or chocolate, even. I can see many fancy furniture there, and many beautiful objects as well, the ones I'd love to take pictures of and post them online. My eyes are feasting on the place, that is so different from the room I was in before, it looked like I was in a completely different building! The beach house was gone, I felt like I was in a different country, or even world. And I looked to the window I found, it was dark! I thought it was something on the glass, but as I turned around once more, I could see that place didn't have one of its walls, the room was open to a fancy corridor, like an extensive boulevard. I could count many plants as well, like it was a rich well cultivated californian garden. I could see the corridor had stone in the floor, and I also could see many splendid gateways, on the other side of the promenade, giving the impression it was the doorway to an important place. It felt like I was on the park of a prosperous nice city, a touristic hub, and the corridor was like one of the streets to it, as it had no beginning, and no end, in sight. I could smeel party house, which pleased me greatly. And what's more, it was a night sky above! Stars and the moon! The last time I checked, it was like 2PM or something, and yet, a night sky! The lights were on, the temperature was fresh, it was a night sky, and yet, 2PM! How could this be?! And I started to explore more the place, more fascinated than intimidated, with a vague notion that this wasn't real, as I was on the beach house just seconds before, nothing of that could ever be possible! I wandered and wandered, I saw the plants in the garden, the arcs with its gates wide open, I could hear conversation, fun and laughter, and I was trying to understand everything going on. Until someone yelled at me.

And this not so small part is what we have for today, in our gathering in the Divagation Store! The Part 3 is coming this Wednesday, and I'll try to fit a sketch into it, hopefully I will, so we can have a Sketch of the week with it! Anyway, thank you so so so much for being here, you are indeed the very best, and I see you next time, hopefully!
