Oh my.
I cannot wait for that story. I will buy it and then agonize over the choices until I have it entirely spoilt in the forums, as I do, before commiting to anything. But to whomever thought of anything so insane - Kudos. The Empress' Shadow was a great story, and I am looking forward to what follows in its steps.
I am really curious as to how the writers addressed the "feducci is not royalty" issue, by the way.

I actually feel sorry for Feducci, whether or not he deserves it. After all, there *are* fates worse than death, and I'll bet the Captivating Princess knows how to inflict a few of them.

No time like the present to discuss pertinent matters. How many Echoes is your property insured for?
Also, does anyone else find this appropriate (accidental, probably, but oh, so appropriate) to be announced on the day we get [redacted] from the Advent Calendar?

The Captivating Princess has been seen in public with Sandy Toller far more than with Feducci. And Sandy has already defeated the inestimable Mayor in combat on more than one occasion.

I'm very concerned. Specifically, I'm concerned that no future story will ever compare.

This is somewhat off topic, but I don't suppose there's a sort of bibliography for all of the FL writers. I'm looking forward to this story, and I think Cash is one of my favorite writers at FBG, but I can't remember exactly remember which Exceptional Stories he wrote to be sure.

There are obviously no brakes on the Feducci train, but that's ok, because before it turns into an inferno of fire and metal, it'll give us (or at least me) a Hell of a ride!

Feducci surely can't be in love. More likely, he has some sinister plot to do away with the Captivating Princess. In which case, he deserves our full support.

Hieronymus Drake considers the Princess by far the more evil of the two, but his perspective may be biased. Being murdered a time or two is the sort of thing he can take in stride. What the Princess did to him hurt him far worse.

In response to this announcement, I've decided to pay Feducci a visit by way of killing him with his own lance (replica) in the Forgotten Quarter. Unfortunately, there's no similar way to offer the Captivating Princess my regards. As for the wedding proper, we'll see how it goes.

just think of the wedding night. in fact, think about there being no sign that the captivating princess' soon-to-be-husband is at all alive in the post-liberation appetite destiny you can share with her....-
edit: but if he's alive then that's fine too. a family can be two grotesque monstrosities and an immortal duelist hunting each other in the darkness because there's nothing else left to hunt

Alright, this will sound idiotic, but I have absolutely no memory of what the Captivating Princess actually, you know, does. I've accepted her as a well-known character, but now that I think about it, I can only remember hearing about her as a well-known character, and I can't for the life of me remember why she would be well-known.

[spoiler]For one, she indulges Red Honey. She also takes full advantage of the Liberation of Night in the Gloom Destiny, killing her guards and looters alike. I think it's also hinted that not only her mind is warped. You become her companion/rival/nemesis, since you only fear each other.
It's been mentioned that many of those who try to court her end up trying to take their life. She also reintroduces you to the Court after you complete enough terms as a Governor of Port Carnelian.
While Feducci does horrible things both for sport and to further his agenda, whatever it might be, Captivating Princess does them only for her personal pleasure[/spoiler]
