Lady Arabella's glasses which happen to look very similar to my IRL ones :)

    Her glasses, and her special, um, technique, of calming down King Emeric 😉 there’s a story to that!

    Also, the robe she’s wearing looks great. Hopefully it’s a costume or a motif that isn’t too difficult to obtain.

    What glasses?
    I'm but a sarcastic beef jerky. Irony and cynicism are my parents. You've been warned.

    @Kisakee those gold things on Lady Arabelle’s face. They sort of look like monocles, but with two lens. Not sure how they stay up though.

    I see, thanks. And they are called "pince nez". @SammyKhajit

    Thanks @Kisakee for the tip

    looks like pince nez will be the latest fashion accessory in High Isle.

    Pince nez reading glasses are kind of making a comeback. They were very popular in the late 19th and early 20th century, You've probably seen them in photos of Mark Twain and Teddy Roosevelt among some notable wearers.

    Mine are not. They have proper arms over my ears. I wouldn't trust myself with pince nez. The shape of my lenses is very similar to these though.

    I have the dwemer goggles which are the closest I've been able to find in game to eyeglasses. IDK if there are more but I don't think so. These are closer.

    A good, ambiguous storyline.

    I mean a story that is not obvious from point A how it will end in point Z (looking at you Blackwood), but where NPCs have motivations, rather than being "good" or "evil". I want ideologies, beliefs, causes for the NPCs to fight, intrigue and even die for. It might be that I will get what I want, at least partially, and that makes me glad.

    I did sigh a bit when they said that the Ascendant Order was the bad guys. Sure, I know stories can't have multiple endings in an MMO, sadly, but I wish it was a bit more ambiguous, not so clear cut who are the good guys and who are the bad. Without knowing too much, I cannot but feel that the Ascendant Order has a few points right. Maybe I would rather support them than the aristocrats of the breton "elite". ;)

    With all the card games that citizens of Tamerial are playing, more eye glasses so you can see the cards better would make sense.
