After giving up on my first monk run this time arround I will prevail.
As I wan't to make this a lil harder I'll only eat veggies, no meat allowed.
I'm writing this 59mins and 49 seconds in the run, after meeting a certain someone.

#

So far I managed to not die, but as I don't know where to head from here on it'll only be a matter of time

austere ivy

hate that guy :II

#

and ofc as soon as im past him a white lizard camps the pipe I've to go through

#

what a lovely duo of utter suffering

austere ivy
#

first time i killed anything this run

#

tbh it deserved this

tulip ledge
#

the white lizard of doom and destruction

austere ivy
#

it

#

is

tulip ledge
#

when i saw it was a white lizard i was wondering if it was THAT white lizard and it. was 🥹

austere ivy
#

is there a specific one ?

tulip ledge
#

just the white lizards in that area in general

austere ivy
#

i just always forget they exist

#

when i try to sneak past a horned lizard or meatheap as i get past them a white one pops up and snatches me

#

died for the 4th time... fell from a high place after hibernating T-T

#

the red goo is glitching i think

#

made it to the entrance of pebbles

#

guess I'll call it a day

austere ivy
#

Current Deathcount:
1 Bottomless Pit
1 Heavy Mouse
1 White Lizard
1 Meatheap

#

Quick question: Rainworld does incorporate Elements from budhism, does it not ?

#

Or rather it Revolves around Tales from budhism

tulip ledge
#

i feel like there was some inspiration taken from buddhism yeah

austere ivy
#

It's just that I'm finding so many references to one of my favourite manga while playing, "Land of the Lustrous", which is based on Tales from budhism. For example the places that you can find, like Luna or Five Pebbles..., the thinks that are to be discovered, like Looks to the Moon. Also the Overseer somewhat resembles a LotL character.. if I think about it the general setting is pretty much the same as well, although the time gap between the Apokalypse and the present is much larger.
Although I don't think the developers read the manga and said: "let's copy this and make it into a game", the Source of Inspiration seems to be the same

austere ivy
#

made it further than I#ve ever been

#

5th death to another meatheap :II

loud tangle
#

oh there is an anime too, perfect

austere ivy
#

It's a masterpiece imo ^^

loud tangle
#

is the anime worth it ?

austere ivy
#

Unfortunately just one season

loud tangle
#

ah

#

i have my answer

austere ivy
#

T-T

loud tangle
#

season 1 then manga then monksilly

austere ivy
#

moon is not the only one

#

#

#

austere ivy
#

pretty town

#

is that outskirts by chance ?

#

according to the echoes I'm gifted due to the mark i just got

#

and can perhaps end the cycles, which sounds like i'm supposed to ascend or sth...

#

but i definitely wanna visit looks the moon once more

#

before i do ascend

austere ivy
#

Just realized the whole 'let's end the cycles and the suffering' - thing once again screams budhism

loud tangle
#

gratz on progress !

#

#

Oh, sorry. I just joined this server less than an hour ago, so I have no clue how this is built.

limpid oriole
#

No worries!! That’s why I let you know

low trellis
#

Ohhhhh that makes way more sense.

#

Thanks!

tulip ledge
#

though some ops will have multiple posts for each campaign so be sure to keep an eye out for those monksilly

#

wait did they leave the server

#

oh well 🥹

limpid oriole
austere ivy
#

yeah uhmmm... i was thinking pebbles might have a use for my pearls... seems he didn't wan't them at all

#

1 death to pebbles it is

#

just got 1 point in scholar and i can't figure out why

#

perhaps cz i took a pearl spearwrite

limpid oriole
austere ivy
#

new region found

#

what a beautiful place to be

tulip ledge
#

so sparkly monksilly

austere ivy
#

first death to rain T-T

austere ivy
#

died to a flying centipede

#

this game keeps getting more horrifiying

#

slain by a horned lizard O.O

austere ivy
#

Quick question: If I drop a colored pearl and a scav picks it up, were does it end up ? In their stash ? Or does it respawn ?

tulip ledge
#

only one way to find out monksilly

#

but a genuine answer to that: ||if a scav picks it up it's good to assume it's gone forever, unless you have "key item tracking" enabled in Rain World Remix unfortunately||

austere ivy
#

;-;

#

That's horrible but realistic game design

limpid oriole
#

you can always retrieve it from the scav if you notice it

austere ivy
#

Welp, I noticed to late this time monkwail I threw it across a cliff cz I had my hands full and needed a spear to get across. So I got one from a scav and got back there. At the time I was back, the pearl had already vanished due to a scav picking it up.

Status update:
I'm neither dead nor have I lost interest in the game. But due my current Lack of time and a friend finally being able to play grounded with me I'm on a hiatus for the time being spearwrite
