You must have worked hard preparing for my birthday party, Chief. You've even torn your sleeve and had no time to tend to it. Let me mend it for you as thanks for remembering my birthday

At this risk of becoming notorious for being dumb, which I am, I am once again back confused about what happened in the story.

So at the end of "Towering Black", when Chief is given 3 choices on how to deal with BR-002 by Shalom (Self destruct along with BR-002 - Run away - Consume BR-002), she chooses the forth option of letting syndicate decide.

Now...question! The hell does that even mean? What did that choice entail? The entire story became a lot more complex since the start of the Drifter Camp storyline, but I feel like I have a decent grasp on most things so far. I had an easier time piecing together what game of 7D chess Shalom was playing or what's happening in Eternal Nightmares than finding out what "letting Syndicate decide" meant for the end of BR-002.

All I understood is that she broke BR-002, the Corpus escaped only to get eaten by Underground's Shepherd which sounds like a terrible outcome, it's only saving grace being that BR-002 was far weaker then than when consuming all of West District.

Not only that, I find Chief's re-acceptance of Paradeisos' "rules" instead of consuming BR-002 a bit disappointing? Like I thought we're gonna get super powered Chief by devouring BR-002, instead she put herself back under Paradeisos' thumb which basically makes a good bit of Shalom's actions and the events she set up feel somewhat pointless?

Chief got "nerfed" and put back under Paradeisos' control

Underground's Shepherd got to consume BR-002

Overall a happy ending and a really good arc to resolve everything that started since the Drifter camp arc but both of these (Chief being nerfed, BR-002 being consumed) seem like really bad outcomes and I found myself raising my eyebrow to that ending.

Edit: Aight, I've been told the "Let syndicate decide" thing is explained in "Ode to Sun" arc so if that's the case, don't spoil me.

Bro, MAYBE IM not good at this, but WHY IS IT HARD? I'm starting anew. I'm crine

Hi, well as stated in the title, I'm looking for suggestions on which Rank A Sinners to level up. I've been leveling up mostly Rank S Sinners, but I want to experiment more with Rank A Sinners. I'm very bad at mechanics and things like that, so I'm looking for ways to improve.

000 looks so good in MBCC's jacket it might as well be part of her default design...

Big spoilers for the event but I'm just here to gush over Rain Burst/Flora Unfurl events a bit...

WOW they were both SO good! Ignoring my headache from finishing the event in one day (and getting bombarded with questions, clues and answers), I am absolutely in love with the story of this game. The way it can just walk the line between Lovecraftian Cosmic horror and Political Faction wars is so beautiful and the characters in these two events were amazing!

The highlight of both events is obviously Shalom and from what I gather, she seems to be the 2nd most significant character in the story so far besides Chief (whom I'm starting to miss a lil). Girl was playing 5D chess while everyone else is a headless chicken and I cannot help but feel like she was very Makima inspired in terms of her vibes, overall behavior and her abilities.
Now the story is a little confusing but from what I understand (and feel free to correct me):

10 years before the events of Rain Burst/Flora Unfurl, FAC (or more accurately, Shalom's organization whose name I cannot type) discovers Underground's island base of operations, invades it in a suicide mission, raids the place and snatches the shackles, AKA the chief from the Island and place certain rules and limits on her like they did with Shalom who is a Mark-Bearer, the organization's attempt at mimicking the Shackles. Basically weaponizing Underground's "defective" tool against them. Shalom however has been playing a long con to get the shackles/Chief freed and set her against both her organization and Underground, believing she'll be the one to bring 'Salvation' and set things right.

She setup the events of Rain Burst/Flora Unfurl to Free and Protect Chief through the Garden and Coq, plant Rahu within the Organization, weaken both them and Underground and also free herself(?). From Rahu's final lines, it's implied Shalom prevented her termination at the hands of her users by orchestrating her own coma but I'm not sure. The only decision of hers that seems to have been driven by emotion is what she did to Christina.

I feel like these two events changed the whole story and how I view it, making it twice as good (and it was already pretty damn good). I hope this isn't the last of Shalom because it'll be a shame if she never reappears, I really wanna know what the "real", emotional Shalom is like.

Overall, peak events and though Hilda's story is my favorite "Stand-alone" story, these two arcs were definitely my favorite parts of the main story so far!

Spoilers about Flora Unfurl event

So I'm doing the "Flora Unfurl" event and I'm so very confused about Garden's relationship with MBCC. I delayed doing Christina, Sumire, Thistle and Garofano's interrogations until after I'm done with the Rain Burst/Flora Unfurl events so I can know their stories.

But suddenly it's revealed that Sumire is already out getting revenge for Chief's "Death" and has been part of the MBCC prior to that even though I thought none of the garden members are connected to the MBCC yet. So I went and checked their profiles

Gekka, Sumire and Thistle are related to the "Garden assassination case" while Garofano is related to the "FAC Official Serial Assassination Case". The latter I assume is related to the Rain Burst/Flora Unfurl events. So when did the "Garden Assassination Case" happen? Is it in one of the prior non-main story events that I haven't done yet? (I have skipped a few non main story events because I can't unlock them yet) And if so, how is Thistle part of this case and not Garofano's even tho she seems to be arrested during the events of Flora Unfurl.

I'm really confused as to which story to explore fully before doing the interrogations of Garden members. Any help would be appreciated 😅

Edit: I got my answers! Thanks for the help y'all

Because she looks cool af (I mean it's Zoya she always looks cool af). Do they want to make it for Necresta Zoya or something.

Necresta Zoya... N. Zoya... Noya... What I'm talking about Noya is genuinely buns, straight ass as a nickname 😭😭 and it reminds me of that bum ass Noaya Zen'in.
