58.2 Endgame?

Without any fanfare, we landed in Port Sendoff. The portmaster greeted us like usual, and we went on our merry way back to Kotosa. I mean, seriously. I feel like a lot of things were missing right now. Where was the urgency? The fear of being invaded? At this point, I didn't even feel like something was going to happen even though we were essentially at what I'd call, 'maximum world tension.'

Also, that same nagging feeling that something big was about to happen still rang at the back of my head. Like, sure, something was going to happen, but there was some kind of finality to this one for some reason.

"Say, don't you think that everything's going too smoothly?" I couldn't help but ask Guidance as we quietly made our way to Kotosa.

"Not at the moment, no," the dev shook her head. "I for one like the quiet we've been experiencing as of late. That thing we did in Marquee was more than enough action for me for a long while. Maybe even forever if I was really pushing it."
