Game #18 - Impressions

Well well well. Richard started seeing things, which later proved to be quite real when attacked with his Void skills. Marcus got into political scene, and with Lovejoy they got into alcohol-trafficking. And Ninga went on a journey into the woods to recapture a portion of her past she had forgotten. This is just a […]
