Thea: The Awakening, Lada 2, Final Part

My main expedition, along with the Planetnik, went to the east to clear the creature lairs there. There were a lot of wandering baddies in the area too.

There were creature lairs and wandering baddies in the east.

With the Planetnik, it was easy to handle the 5-Skull Dragon Lords baddie group, who were convinced to leave the area. According to the text, the Dragon left some loot behind. Interestingly, it left Dragon bones instead of Dragon leather. I wondered where it got the bones from.

The Dragon left behind Dragon bones but not Dragon leather.

A Holy Hog appeared in my village and blessed all villagers everywhere with Bless of Health. I read online that this was part of the new content after the main quest was completed.

Later, another Event occurred where a number of villagers were blessed with permanent attributes. I also gained two Malicious Spiders. The bonuses I received in the Event were probably related to my choice in the Divine Quest. I considered trading Malicious Spiders for an Elf at Silveroak where 4 'people' were required. However, though I had another 2 Malicious Spiders in the village, one of them had since become indispensable because it had gained 3 Craft.

More blessings from the gods.

While clearing the lands in the east, I discovered that having the Planetnik allowed my expedition to deal with other Giants through a Social Challenge.

The Planetnik could convince other Giants.

After clearing the east, more lairs appeared to the south-west. It is possible that lairs will keep appearing so I will always have something to do.

Lairs appeared to the south-west.

I visited Silveroak again. This time, I brought a lot of food. I selected the option to meditate with the Elves and my people received Bless of Attractiveness. When I started another session in Silveroak, the option to meditate was replaced with a beckoning Elf. The Elf gave me a map to an old shrine.

The logbook kept records of what had occurred in Silveroak.

I had brought enough food for two training sessions. On the first session, my expedition received the Bless of Magic and Animal Kinship as before. On the second, I had a better outcome. My people received Folklore and Will in addition to Animal Kinship.

Training with the Elves gave a different result the second time.

I visited the 'Place of interest' marked by the map that the Elf in Silveroak had given me. When my expedition investigated the shrine, the Beasts in the party were poisoned. Some experience that turned out to be! The expedition later made a trip to the Herbalists hut for healing.

Was this The Shrine of Beast Poisoning?

The Holy Hog in the village gave random bonuses once in a while. One bonus I had was where a Child grew into an adult instantly. I find it interesting that, in the text of the Event, the adult appeared before the Child disappeared.

Children should be kept away from the Holy Hog.

The Child turned into a Hunter, a good class to have.

The Child turned into a Hunter.

My expedition found the skeleton of a Dragon again. Unlike the last time, they met a Baba Yaga. After defeating the baddie through a Hex Challenge, the Planetnik in my party gained a variety of good attributes, including 3 Magic. Veles was mentioned in the option for the Hex Challenge. Including him, three deities were mentioned in this Event - the other two deities were Lada and Morena.

The Planetnik grew stronger.

Just for laughs, I equipped the Planetnik with a complete set of Dragon bone equipment, excluding tools (which did not accept Dragon bone in any of its recipes). I had done this before with Enchanted bones.

My village had been robbed of precious resources by bandits. I confronted the bandits and took whatever they still had. Unlike a previous game, one of the bandits decided to join me.

A bandit joined me.

I got bored with the game shortly after. The map had been completely explored and there were no goals to meet other than unlocking Lada's last bonus. On the other hand, it was getting tedious to micromanage the crafting and the gathering to be done by my many villagers. Thus, I decided to end the game. Below is the final score summary.

The final score.

I had unlocked Lada's fourth bonus.

The bonuses of Lada, version 1.20.1921.0.

Lada's final bonus will be a Sage. Note that Veles also gives a Sage, but as his third bonus. As a final bonus for Lada, I hope that her Sage will be much better. With the Sage and Lada's other bonuses it will be easier to win in Social Challenges.
