welcome to my personal hell

dragon warrior iii for the game boy color describes me as "stubborn", and i'm tempted to agree with that assessment

you know, a lot of fantasy games like to go with the good ol' lake/pool of blood to make something seem fucked up, but Path of Exile is the only thing I've seen do that and then follow it up with "And here's the 12ft high wall of corpses used to do it", most of the time it's just an abstract "isn't this fucked up? like a metal album cover or something" rather than a wizard actually doing industrial scale murder to produce the lake of blood

i like noita because it puts you in the position of the war crime wizard grinding up corpses for a sea of blood, and as a bonus you can turn enemies into gushers or fireworks

Oough good. Make it a cave. The walls and ceiling are lined with exsanguinated bodies. They occasionally stick fresh ones on there to refill it. Maybe they need to keep it from coagulating (stirring it or maybe unseen horrors swim in it)

personally i like the version where it's blood from a single source. like a chained giant or half-dead god, constantly bleeding and causing this lake of their drained vitality to exist

another benefit of the version where it's the blood of a god is it gives a reason for people to be interested in it beyond it just, existing. shit's gotta be potent with the magical energies and who knows what sort of things an enterprising wizard might be able to make with it
