#but generally i think the focus is this. act 1: survival/gather resources. act 2: scaling damage. act 3: long term block plan.

[seaquestions]

do you have any video suggestions on how to get better at slay the spire? i’ve played several hundred hours with tactics just based on trial and error, and while i’m not too bad at it, i’ve only beat the heart once, with the watcher (i got lucky and had relics such as the black star, preserved insect, tungsten rod, orichalcum, and bronze scales)

oh sure! i've been watching a lot (a lot lot lot...) of baalorlord's videos & stream vods, and mostly i've been Absorbing the way he plays and picks cards and specifically when to pick certain cards and when not to, but he has videos on how to kill the heart as each of the characters at the bottom of this playlist, as well as explaining events & some achievement guides. he also has videos that talk about cards and when they are or are not worth your time and in what situations they would be. also, i watched this tips video and this video about elites around when i was starting and they gave me some tips that helped me but since you're many hours in i assume you know most of em, but still good to remember!

Star Wars Episode 9:Restored Hope: Part 1.(Chpt. 4)( Fan Fic to finish right)

Act 2-C (previous parts 1-3 below)

Ahsoka is in her room meditating, Rey walks in. Ahsoka has her eyes closed but begins to speak “I sense distress in you.” Rey replies to her “I’m sorry to disturb you. Did the force tell you I was in distress?” Ahsoka opens one eye and answers “I can see it ,you're not hiding it.” Rey replies “That obvious? I do have a lot on my mind. I have a question for you.” Ahsoka says “Please child ask.” Rey then asks “Why did you send Jacen to find me? He told me he came from the depths of space to Jakku looking for me. After me meeting Luke and sometime after Crait he found me but he said I was his mission. I was left on Jakku for years by drunk no good parents then all of a sudden he comes for me, why?” 

Ahsoka opens both eyes and stops meditating she waves Rey over and pats on the space next to her “Come sit.” Rey sits down and crosses her legs and sits next to Ahsoka. Ahsoka tells her “In this galaxy, everything is not as it seems. Who told you your parents were no good drunks?” Rey answers “Ben Solo current leader First Order.” Ahsoka replies “See that's not a reliable source, his vision is clouded how can he see yours clearly. We knew that we needed you, we knew Luke needed you. Your meaning to us and the galaxy isn’t arbitrary, but all will be revealed but I need you to be focused on the here and now, we have very little time.”

 Jacen walks into the room and asks “Do you feel that?” Ahsoka says “Yes I do.” Rey quickly follows by saying “No I don’t. What is it?” Jacen then says  The dark side.” Rey asks “ What, here?” Ahsoka responds “It’s coming we have very little time. I need that compass, It will lead to the salvation of the galaxy. We have to do this together, there is a threat bigger than dark side users. We’ll do this together but I need you here, for the here and now.” Jacen says “I’ll go talk to the students.” Jacen exits the room.  

Jacen has the students gathered in front of him in the entrance way of the temple he says to them “Since this academy has been established I have stated that we must be prepared for the war to come to us. That has been my motive as your teacher. For those who are not ready for the conflict, remember your teachings, no hard feelings may the force be with you. Anyone else who knows that this fight here is bigger than us, grab your nerves and lightsabers It’s time to join the fight.”

 A male Deveronian Jedi says “This is our home and our path We’ll stand and fight.”

Temiri looks over at Jacen and says “I’m with you master.”

Kylo Ren on the bridge of the star destroyer in hyperspace with General Hux standing next to him. Hux asks “ Supreme leader do you feel that this is the best course to use our resources or you more importantly?” Kylo replies “You seem to question your supreme leader far too much general. We have been prosperous and this will be a mission to continue our prosperity. If your along to see the next moment that's on you.” Hux gets uncomfortable trying to keep his composure, he says “ Supreme leader what if Fallon is right? The Jedi haven’t been part of this conflict and the resistance have been doing gorilla warfare. We are the central power in the galaxy and if this threat is coming that may change.” Kylo takes a deep breath in annoyance and exhales. “You know what general I really didn’t ask you. And I think... you should think about your next moment.”

The star destroyer exits out of hyperspace and descends on the planet of Deveron. The First Order begins a full-scale invasion and aggressive searching in the city.

Kylo Ren and Fallon meet with the Knights of Ren in the forest in the outskirts of the temple.

 When Kylo and Fallon approach the Knights bow on one knee. The knight says “ Master after all this time we found them. Master Fallon the First one it is an honor to have you.” Fallon smiles and looks at Kylo, Kylo looks annoyed. Kylo says “ Please Stand.” The Knights stand, Kylo continues, “How far are they?” The Knight says “Just over the ridge, at last fulfilling our destiny.” Kylo says to them “Thank you for your time and sacrifice. Thank you for believing in the vision of absolutes in peace and power in the path that Vader set before us.’ The lead Knight says “ Master there is no other way.” Kylo says “Let’s destroy these heretics”. They all walk off deep into the forest.

They are all walking single file the Knights are leading the way and Fallon and Kylo are in the rear. Fallon asks Kylo “How long have you been looking for the Jedi?” Kylo answers “Far too long, but today it ends.” Fallon then asks “ Do you think Snoke would want this? “  Kylo answers “ He’s dead it doesn’t matter.” Fallon then says “If this gets you to focus on what is coming, we shall do this swiftly.” Kylo says “ Agreed.”

They begin to approach the temple they all have alert disposition approaching with their weapons drawn.

Jacen, Temiri, and the Jedi male Deveronian greet Kylo and Fallon and The Knights at the entrance of the temple. Jacen projects his voice and says to them “ Go know and leave with your lives.” Kylo comes to the forefront and asks “ Where’s Rey?” Rey comes from the shadows from the side of the temple and she says “ I’m right here.” Fallon and the Knights of Ren look at Ahsoka amazed. The Knights say in unison “ The Bringer?!”. Kylo is amused and says “Ahsoka its been far to long. I wish it was in better circumstances reuniting with you, but the force wills it for you to die today.” Ahsoka replies “ Not today.” Fallon says “Or just close to it?” Ahsoka says to Fallon “ Tell me how it feels friend.” Kylo looks at him confused, Fallon shrugs his shoulders.

Jacen says to Kylo and the others “Go know and leave with your lives.” Deveronian men and women come from the trees surrounding them with their native weapons. The other Jedi show themselves and surround them as well with their lightsabers drawn. Kylo, Fallon, and The Knights huddle close togther. Fallon says “They are warriors but they are not Jedi they’re students.” Fallon uses the Force and pushes the ones surrounding him so does Kylo Ren very far back.

Fighting between the two groups ensues.

Ahsoka leaps into action with her lightsabers drawn. She lands in front of Fallon. She says to him “ You left and your here squabbling, stopping my progress, our progress.” He replies “ Other than fighting for survival we had nothing else in common. I’ll take that compass if you got it.” She looks at the entranceway of the temple. Fallon says “ Oh not yet.” Fallon and Ahsoka Fight with movements of dancers. Choreographed moving like leaves in the wind.

Kylo is walking focused towards Rey, ignoring the chaos that is around him. He pushes and slices anything getting in his way. Rey stands ready for him with her lightsaber drawn. 

He stops directly in front her. He says to her “It’s been far too long Rey. I wanted us to meet sooner. You alluded me for quite some time. I and the Knights looked for you at every place that was special to the Jedi. I started on Ahch To from when we connected there I remembered. But stronger the force was I knew I couldnt sense you but this place here, has overwhelming power of the force. I don’t want to fight Rey. I don’t want this chaos around us, around the galaxy, let us both be the change. One last time join me, because this won’t end how you think.” 

Rey lowers her saber looks Kylo directly in his eyes with a look of sincerity. Kylo begins to smile and lower his saber. Rey drops her head for a moment and lifts it back up and says “No.” Kylo gets livid and with all the rage in his voice he says “ You and everything you stand for dies today Rey.” They begin their lightsaber duel.

Fallon and Ahsoka continue their fight through the temple. Ahsoka says “ You allow your draw to the darkside cloud your judgment.” Fallon replies “ My draw to the darkside has kept me alive, you are not too far from it yourself, that is why we are here and the others are not.” She says to him “I’m here to prevent that, you want to exploit that.” Fallon then says “ My reasons are far beyond what you can fathom, I’m thinking of forever while you're only thinking of the here now.” She tells him “That is all that matters.”

The fleet of TIE fighters and Troops of the first order come as back up and begin firing on the Jedi and Deveronians.

Jacen is fighting off the Knights of Ren and Killing Troopers at the same time. From the corner of his eye, he sees that Rey is losing her fight with Kylo. He begins making his way towards her.

Kylo gets Rey on the ground near a cliff, she has a sense of panic setting within her. 

Kylo says “Where is all that power and will I have seen in the past grand master Jedi? This scene looks awfully familiar, Ah that's right I was on the ground while you stood victorious. I have grown far stronger than you Rey in many ways. Your not worthy Rey, last time join me, you and the students. We will build an empire where it will never crumble and the sun always rises on us with our combined power it's possible. I am far beyond Vader, Snoke , Or Luke. Join me or die.” She says “ I rather die than join you. You monster.” Kylo says “ I came into this world alone, I’ll die in it alone. It would have been nice for you to be with me.” She prepares for death, while he lifts his arm to strike her down. 

Right before Kylo’s arm comes down the sharp wizz sound of the lightsaber echoes. Kylo screams in agony. Jacen chopped off his hand. It was still holding on to the lightsaber as fell into the canon. Kylo is on the ground holding his severed limb.

Jacen grabs Rey by the hand they run off. The Knights of Ren come to their master’s aid. Kylo yells at the top of his lungs “ GO FIND THEM!”

Jacen joins Ahsoka in her fight against Fallon. Fallon pulls out another Lightsaber and fights them both being unnerved.

The Knights of Ren soon follow. Ahsoka, Jacen, and Rey get cornered. Temiri uses the force and pushes the Knights and Falon away. Ahsoka says “ I’ll meet up with you.” She tosses Jacen a communicator he catches it. Jacen tells Temiri to come on. They run out of the temple and troopers and a few Knights of Ren are waiting for them on the other side. All of a sudden the sky gets dark lightning goes off in the sky. Everyone looks up and around skeptically.

Luke Skywalker appears.

One of the Knights say “ The old Master. We thought you were dead.” Luke replies “ So your thinking now? That was never your strong suit.” The Knight tries to swing his lightsaber, but it goes right through Luke. The troopers prepare to fire. Lightning goes off in the sky again the troopers stop. Kylo having his hand wrapped in his cape is walking with haste through the temple seeing Luke from a distance.  Luke nods his head at Rey, Her and Jacen and Temiri runoff. He winks at the knights and smirks at Kylo. He says ‘ You should’ve stayed in school. A series of lightning strikes come from the sky and the ground begins to rumble. The temple begins to have debris fall everywhere. Rey looks back and mouths “ Thank you” to Luke.

The sky clears, Luke vanishes, and they are all perplexed.

Kylo uses the force and around him to lift some stones and drop them and he walks off the knights of are standing over the defeated Jedi they collect their lightsabers and put them on their belts.

Fallon walks up to Kylo and asks “ Do you feel satisfied to capture your enemy have them bow before in defeat and destroyed what is most important to them?” Kylo answers “ No.” Kylo then says send them to Veldobah for processing. Hiding in the corner trying to escape Ahsoka hears this holding the compass.
