October's Exceptional Story: "The Exile’s Chalice" - Official Discussion Thread

All the story from the start to finish I was wondering if Adventurer is a boy or a girl instead of enjoying the story itself. I guess it would be much easer for me to read this story in my native language since you cannot pull "they" trick in Russian if you are talking about yourself. So seeing a person talking about themselves without revealing it's gender was irritating for me more then it would be for a native speaker. So, yeah, weird.

Wait, there was something about Elder Continent and immortality and so on? Yeah, doubt we can get a Cider from ES, so stakes where low from the start. It was cool to met with Prester forces since they are big focus in Evolution. So for me this story was more a tie in to Evolution and less an actual adventure.
