Rumors spread quickly in Eden as everyone's talking about the restoration of the Fire Shrine, but we have other things to worry about as more events and side quests open up that pay off both monetarily and in terms of new recipes, so there's a lot to do.
Upon reporting to Kruez, we're given permission to enter the Noir Historical Library, but we need a Glow Lamp in order to actually see what's inside there.
No surprise that we need to pact with a Fire Mana in order to make one. So, with Iris now accompanying us, that's what we'll do!

![Ys Origin (PC) [39] (Hugo Route 14) - Gate Your Ass in Gear!
Lots more exposition as we get Hugos backstory and the source of the feud with his brother all while Epona dishes out her thoughts and advice. Unfortunately, that doesnt really teach us how to open the gate.
But, on the plus side, we already know what to due thanks to past experience and find our way to the room where Feena is held in just in time for her to drop a bomb in the form of the truth about the source of magic on Ys.

![Rifftrax: The Game With Friends 4/3/26 Session [5] (Finale) - More Than One Way to Bulk Up
Yep. Need some buffer videos to fill some time between Lufia 1 and Atelier Iris 2 so I can procrastinate on- er, better prepare myself before starting recording it a bit more.
Enjoy the usual shenanigans!

![Castle of Shikigami III [24] - Batu + Roger
You know the route is going to take itself super-seriously when Roger isnt joking around. As such, we get a pair who are focused on solving the incident and are good for dealing with bosses, while their regular enemy game isnt quite up to par.
In one sense, its not much different from the Roger and Gennojo run, but still a good one overall.

![Lufia & the Fortress of Doom Restored [22] - Yours, Mine, and Arus
Were more or less cleaning up the rest of the bridge repair plot that is not nearly as bad in this hack simply due to the double walking speed and half encounter rate. So we fix the bridge, explore the rest of the cave, and get story confirmation on Lufia being our best magic user by speaking friend and enterin- Oh, wait, wrong series.
And you thought we were going into Arus to continue the plot?
Nope!

![Super Marisa World Blind Race [9] - Waxing Lyrical
The various Marisa titles created by Double Cluster have been fairly memetic in the Touhou fandom since their creation. As I already did a Lets Play of Mega Mari, I figured that it would be interesting to return to the even more difficult Super Marisa World, which is full of Super Mario references in its bosses.
However, I still have PTSD from playing through the game years ago, so I convinced three members of the Bakashop Quartet to do a blind race of the game with some assistance from me.
Will there be a winner? Or will there just be survivors?
Or will there be any survivors?

![SMZ3 1/4/26 Chaos Race [8] - Lucariot Below!
Our first SMZ3 chaos race in a good while courtesy of Yosh calling for one at the start of the year, so we can put the blame entirely on him.
Except for the fact that I managed to roll crap seeds for all five of us.
Surely, we are cursed.
