A Letter From Skelly Manor

A very formal looking envelope arrives at your door. It is made of thick, hand-folded parchment and sealed with wax. As you carefully open the envelope, you notice the wax seal is emblazoned with an ornate pumpkin motif.

Dear Sir or Madam,

It is the formal request of Lord Jaxon Skelly and Master Ian Asmodeus that you attend at Skelly Manor as early as is convenient. Your assistance is requested and appreciated for a complicated matter of some privacy and delicacy. Sturdy, waterproof footwear is suggested.

Yours Faithfully,
Lord Jaxon Skelly


You make plans to visit Skelly Manor as soon as possible.

Note: This is a narrative-heavy plot, and relies on knowledge from the previous Morostide Plot. Click here for a recap!

@jensen Yeah, that's sketchy af. I still don't believe you can kill someone's soul, but the reasoning's gross af.

@Cryptoid
it just started yesterday. you might not get the first achievement (i think? i don't know if it's timed?) but you can totally catch up! Topic: TLDR's Morostide Plot Guide [Spoilers]

@Valiska
according to the offsite wiki recap (http://subeta.wikia.com/wiki/Peril_at_the_Patch), ian specifically said you had to "destroy other spirits" to bring back jaxon last time, and he was alright with that because "some spirits are worth more to the world, and to me." which is... sketchy, lol

So I missed the first few days because I was deathly ill. Does this mean I won't be able to finish the plot this year?
Solas
I'd love to know how they got together, like was it love at first sight or was one sooo misunderstood that they needed a hug and it then got private.... ok I soooo could not write any of that with a straight face lol I just love my mind sometimes ;)
Valiska
Please delete my double comment. I don't even know how that happened!
Valiska
@13th Maiden -- That was before I joined; what do you mean? I don't personally believe you can murder a soul, and that if ghosts do exist IRL (which my personal experiences lead me to believe may be true) you can send them back to wherever souls come from, but the soul itself is not destroyed. Mostly because I don't think you can destroy something in the material world that isn't actually a permanent part of the material world. Did they say we were actually destroying souls, or just taking the energy binding them to the material world?
13thMaiden
Yeah no thanks, I hated the first plot, unless Ian is coming out to apologize for tricking us into murdering all those innocent souls for 'twue wuve!', I have no time for these two and their storyline. Yes this is an unpopular opinion but it's mine so neh, to all the shippers, all the power to you, have fun with the plot. I'm gonna help Ester and Emma decorate their house, they're nicer anyways. XP

Every time I see them calling each other cutes names, I squeal ;; Why are they so precious and adorable.
I screamed inside when I saw the official facebook site calling them "lovebirds." You can't believe how much I ship them
Bordeaux
YES! This was one of my favorite plots so I'm excited for the continuation!! <3

@JackyMedan I don't remember the exact year, but it was only a few years ago (maybe 3?). So it was probably during your hiatus.
JackyMedan
Does anyone remember when the previous plot actually was? Because I definitely wasn't there, but now I'm wondering if it was more than 8 years ago before I joined the site in general, or if it was between 2014 and 2016 during my hiatus (real life was getting in the way, still sad I missed peekaboo judging from the rad items).. from other comments I'm seeing it sounds like it was quite long ago, so probably before I joined?
BoaConstrictor
I loooove the recap! Still giggling!
oRKYD
i was stuck for about an hour... i loved it
HYPEBEAST
Is it possible to miss something about the plot if you can't play daily?
Nordi
I, too, skipped all the other rooms and went straight to the basement. ;_; :weary:

And, OMG, I love this plot SO MUCH! Ok, my last plot here was the Masquerade/Rift one, but still, I LOVE Morostide! It's my favourite holiday here on Subeta. And Jaxon and Ian are my favourite characters. And the setting, the art and the dialogue are just OMDGJFHDFJGGHFHFJSJJG! :heart_eyes: :heart_eyes: :heart_eyes: :sob: :sob: :sob:
Valiska
@littlebriarrose I had never battled before either, but I killed it in one turn with a bomb. It's not a hard challenger.
OverthinkingPixels
SCREAMS Yay plot!!!!
OverthinkingPixels

Samwise

antheraea
That recap art is unspeakably endearing! And it says something that...I don't recall that plot at all which means it must've happened a long time ago indeed
intermission
@Amber
unfortunately, no! i keep telling myself over and over again that i need to watch it! and i always forget! i'm super bad at starting shows!
i will search for the song in hopes that i can finally stop being a mess and watch it all in three days and then pass out
Amber STAFF
@intermission do you watch crazy ex girlfriend, because I have WHERE'S THE BATHROOM song stuck in my head now hahaha
intermission
@Amber

Amber STAFF
@intermission theme of next plot: where's the bathroom
intermission
very concerned i snooped through the entire manor and didn't find a bathroom
Thunderbird
Most intriguing plot thus far...interested to see what other secrets that Lord Skelly is hiding...
Deimos
Aah, I saw this and immediately dropped what I was doing. God I hope for the best with these two.
Pinocchio
Hah, I just watched Pet Sematary for the first time last night! Interesting timing.
Neuvillette
OH MY GOD, FINALLY! JAXON AND IAN ARE MY FAVOURITE ❤❤❤???
Riku_443
These two are adorable, and this plot is already super fun! I can't wait to see the rest!!
Merida
I clicked skip puzzle without realizing it, :(
Skrett
@Marlboro I did the same thing and am now regretting it. I couldn't help myself; the glowing light from the basement drew me in right away. Wondering if I missed out on anything, and if so, what.
Unicorn
YESSSSS
Finally some more Jaxon and Ian!
Ian is lookin' so fine ♥️
Jotaro
@littlebriarrose - Friend of mine who has never battled at all managed to beat it in two turns, so you should be fine. Just obviously give your pets weapons to attack with, but they're easy to get if you don't have them already.
StarShadow
@littlebriarrose
This challenger is very easy with low stats. Most low level pets should be able to defeat it.
SongSparra
Hey anyone else sort of seen the resemblance between Jaxon (in the plot/text section) and Norman Reedus? Jaxon's face is a bit fuller so that's why but hey it could be I still need more coffee....
littlebriarrose
what do i do if i don't have any pets that can battle? i've never gotten into that aspect of subeta.
Synth
I love all the artwork for this! I'm excited for these guys to finally get their happy ending. :)
Also, Ian is my favorite NPC so nothing had better happen to him. =x
PrincessJudith
I was able to get the challenger. After we battle him are we done for the day???
Diprosopus
god what year was that plot even? i remember clicking around the manor but literally nothing else. i must've skipped the text lmao.
Marlboro
@Solsticesprite thanks for your help! but you misunderstood me "^_^
I finished all the steps but after the 1st dialogue you could go to all the room, but I went straight ot the basement and so I missed all the re-disgned rooms for now.. it's impossible to go to them at this moment..
DarkVixen28
Apparently I share a sense of humour with Lord Skelly.
SongSparra
OMG I'M SOOOOO HAPPY!
Came on this morning to find a plot with 2 of the coolest dudes (holy crap did I just say Dudes?) on Subeta THEN found Quentin holding down the fort at the pumpkin patch *ECSTATIC MODE* god I love Morostide! This day could only get better if the winning lotto numbers fell in my lap! ....hey look what's that..... lol
PrincessJudith
I am in a room with a door that says 'investigate the throne.' When I click on the door nothing happens. Any advice. And how do I get the challenger please
Judy
Kiarda
@Virus I finally just had to skip that gauge game. It is a bear on mobile
Frankenchokies
Oh yay! I hope after doing all this, they casually break up on the side like it's no big deal like Skitters and Fantine did!
