In the first location, you will find out that your tadpole is asleep and there is no need to hurry, Nettie or Halsin will tell you this. So what's the problem? Why do you feel so rushed? Now that you know that the tadpole is being held back by magic, you need to find its source. At first, I was even afraid to sleep, because the days pass, but after the news that the tadpole is not growing, I relaxed and enjoyed the story.
Because it’s bad story telling. It starts by pounding in the fact that you are going to turn into a mind flayer and continues to highlight that over and over again and then all of a sudden, yeah no big deal.
And you still have a tadpole in your head. I don’t care if it’s sleeping. And quite frankly both Nettie and Halsin are completely useless when it comes to the tadpole. I wouldn’t trust their advice regarding it with any confidence.
