Also, massive rave to Solanis for helping me prep for it by asking me random questions and telling me things I didn't know!

Solanis

Congrats Ushaara! You deserve it!

Also this quiz was very tricky compared to previous.

Zagreus

Oh damn... I was in the quiz. Hah!

Grats Ushaara.

Morshoth

My only complaint about this quiz was the amount of questions relating to gnomes/gnafia/aetherspace, and the lack of questions relating to Icewynd Event and Goloth Event.  These were, for the most part, really difficult questions, and excellent work on knowing all of that Ushaara!
