The Spirit Candle fashion show was still going on.
And the Prison Players had not stopped discussing the latest intelligence either.
Storyteller: "From the intelligence in [Rekindled Flame], it can be seen that Spirit Candle World is now roughly divided into two opposing factions."
Storyteller: "One is [Rekindling], and the other is [Extinguish]."
Storyteller: "At present, the only known Rekindling force seems to be a single Bonfire. As for our Candlefire—at the moment, we should be considered undecided. I guess the players might be the ones to make that choice."
Storyteller: "As for the Extinguish faction, there are quite a few of them. Fallen Fire Twilight, Ashes Guide, and Abyss of Extinguishment alone make for three clearly identified groups, not to mention the inscrutable Shadow of Deception and that strange Polluted World—"
Storyteller: "In short, the current situation does not seem optimistic—"
Combining the intelligence with what they had learned from speaking to the Candle Keepers, Storyteller calmly analyzed the situation and roughly distinguished friend from foe.
Scheming Frog: "Damn—looking at it this way, if we want to rekindle the world, we'll have to join Bonfire in a two-against-three?"
Gray Sky: "More likely two against four, or even more. After all, there's also the master of the Withered Finger, as well as the true culprit behind the world's Extinguish."
After hearing that, many Prison Players in the group fell into thought. If things developed in the worst possible direction, they might really have a lot of enemies to deal with. The pressure was instantly maxed out.
I Do Push-Ups with Niuniu: "Sigh! I have a suggestion! Why don't we just choose Extinguish? Then it'd be four against one against Bonfire. The advantage is ours! (cigarette in mouth)"
Niuniu's way of thinking remained as unconventional as ever.
