I may not last long because I had a pretty taxing Sunday night.
When I logged out last, I was in the SW quadrant of Pernon, Halcya State. The Teleporter in Spire Isle (its capital?) showed me the names of all the Halcya villages, but I still have to run through them & get screenshots (& paint!). Maybe I should go get a diet coke.
So far I am really liking the looks of Halcya State. IRL I'd rather live on a mountain than by the sea, but the little rivers & beaches are very charming.
I teleported (984 kinah... not bad) to the far SW island, Azure Inlet Village. I found 3 paint plants, yielding blue & purple, on main roads just outside the Village center.
The waterfront in Azure Inlet is really my kind of shoreline; I like the look of rocks & moss better than sandy beaches. While I was there it started snowing again, which is just so weird when looking at a coastline. No, I've never been to Nova Scotia.
There were fish in the water, shellfish on the rocks, & platinum nodes. There are 2 properties in Halcya state available for purchase (a House in Spire Isle for 15m & an Estate in Mistcloak for 335m), but none of them in Azure Inlet. Oh well. I headed East into Longhill Pass Village.
Longhill Pass had a lot of scenic spots, being decorated very nicely with flower hedges & pleasing trees. I found one Dye Plant just in front of the southernmost estate. If that was a real house, that place would just have ridiculous views.
Standing outside, down on the shoreline, was some Villager who told me he can't fight any more; all he's good for is picking out snazzy outfits. Then he said "May the darkness grant you peace!" Creepy. I liked it. I then ran back up & harvested the Dye Plant AGAIN. It had been, like... 2 minutes. Yeah, this house is situated nicely.
The road East was very pretty in a grass & rocks kind of way, & I think I passed a spot where the Winter Agrint for the Turn, Turn, Turn quest pops. There were 2 Dye Plants on the main road as I headed toward the center, & a villager said I was looking sharp. Whatever, perv.
Night fell while I was in Spindletree & the lamps went on. It wasn't quite as pretty as Silver Tree yesterday, but nice. It felt to me like the houses in Spindletree were a bit denser than other villages. Nevertheless, it seems this village is fully populated.
I headed North out of Spindletree past some Platinum nodes & came to Mistcloak Village. This is one of the villages with an available Estate. I found a Dye Plant immediately entering the Village center & another one exiting it on the other side, & yet another one up the hill from the Village center.
There was a strolling family - Mom, Dad, 2 kids - that passed me, but no one said anything. Totally not creepy. That was ok. I liked the lavender flower hedges & the really peaceful inlet where I imagine it would be awesome fishing... oh wait, there's no fishing in this game. Oh well. Heading North to the next village.
Greenleaf was pretty before I even got there. I could see the tall trees from the bridge. There was a Dye Plant as I entered & I think I saw another, already harvested Dye Plant neat Village center.
I liked the gray rock walls used for landscaping, although there were a lot of wood platforms & stairs as well. I did see a House of unpainted wood, which struck me as slightly novel. A lot of the houses are painted paneling, & there's a lot of brick & antiqued stone. To see unpainted wood paneling was odd. But cute.
And I think that's it for Halcya State. I'll get to the East side States later; I'm too tired right now. I got me 20 Blue Paint though... I'm hoping one of the other 2 States has green.
