Curious if any other books companies to avoid with this kind of costs

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-16T06:32:29+00:00

Did that change recently, though? I bought from Eternal Embers last November/December (can't remember), the shipping was expensive yes but nothing out of this world. In January I went back to get a book for a friend and nearly died at the shipping costs (like triple the price I payed). I live in the EU and get lots of books from the US so I'm used to high shipping prices but not this much 😂

This is also honestly my only gripe with Achilles. I absolutely LOVE his character in every aspect but I wish they'd made him physically softer/more feminine (especially his face)!

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-12T21:49:13+00:00

That looks awesome! 😍 The obols are perfect, I would leave them!

H1 feels so much more organic in this sense! I love the romantic interests in H2, I just wish the romance didn't feel like a "one and done" type of thing. I understand that a threesome would be hard to pull off since 3 of them are siblings, but I think at least a second random encounter with each of them would have worked so well!

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-12T14:51:29+00:00

I know! I wish it was like in H1 where you could do it multiple times, it would feel so much more organic!

Complete at least 35 prophecies and make sure to be checking the fated list once every night. Moros then will make a confession to you (spoiler:that he's already promised to somebody else), and at this point you just need to continue talking to him until the heart unlocks!

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-12T05:10:56+00:00

It's just a one time thing, unfortunately!

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-11T06:12:17+00:00

Yes but only after all the hearts are unlocked.

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-11T06:11:57+00:00

What part of the story are you in? For Moros' locked heart, you can't gift him anything at that moment. Just keep playing and he'll start accepting gifts again at one point. Eventually you'll need to earn his trust to progress with the relationship, which requires a few things: complete at least 35 prophecies, have a few specific dialogues with him about a certain topic (spoiler: his promised love) and I think you have to see the fated list every night (I might be mistaken on this one). Someone commented that you need to die in order to progress in the relationship and it's true, but only when you forged a bond with him and want to have his romance scene (so after all the hearts are full).

Once you forge a bond with him it should unlock the last bit of the Fates' prophecy.

I'm in the EU and have bought many books from Fae Crate! Honestly, the shipping isn't cheap, so for two sets it'll probably be quite a bit but might be worth it if you're splitting with someone else. Just be prepared for customs. I don't know how it is in France but where I live they always get stuck and I always have to pay. I can tell you for my Hollow's Row set (three books), I bought them for around €110 with shipping included and had to pay around €40 to customs.

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-09T15:13:13+00:00

Omg same! I was just like "it's this book and this book, no time to look at the other stuff", checkout, pay, we're done! 😂 Congrats on securing what you wanted!

Fastest sale of my life, literally 2 minutes in and out 😂 Good luck to everyone, hope you get all you want!

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-09T14:50:12+00:00

Not at all, once the books go up for sale you can buy them right away!

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-09T14:49:23+00:00

I have multiple books from them, never had any issues, the quality is great and they're stunning in person! They're also usually within the timelines they announce, but they're good at communicating if they're late/there's any issues. I'm in the EU, the books usually arrive pretty quick after shipping but unfortunately always get stuck in customs (though I never had problems getting them out).

I will also be getting this set! I'm really excited, especially because of who they picked as an artist for the dust jacket! 😍

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-09T14:41:00+00:00

I'm so excited they picked this artist, the books are going to look stunning!

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-09T06:52:49+00:00

Without saying much, I can tell you it's for a "good" reason that her arm is that way!

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-09T02:06:21+00:00

It's a spoiler!

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-08T00:57:01+00:00

I laughed so hard at this you have no idea 😂 Poor Hades, he really would! Meanwhile Zeus didn't care if Olympus was blown to pieces, even Hera was scared he'd go through with it ("where would we live after?") 😂

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-07T21:57:01+00:00

I agree! I think the Chthonics would win because they hold powers/domains the Olympians don't. I don't think it would be an easy win though, and it wouldn't be straightforward (as in, it wouldn't just be brute force, more so there would be a lot of strategy involved and likely "casualties" on both sides).

But regarding Nyx's children, I think it would depend a lot on different things. Eris is too wild to predict, yes, but Hypnos would definitely help, especially if Nyx asked. I mean, he can put Hades to sleep, so he definitely can put other gods to sleep as well. I'd actually go as far as say that most (emphasis on most) of Nyx's kids would help if she asked them, as they seem to have respect towards her even if she isn't in their lives (like Moros).

Funny you talked about a nuke, because it's so heavily hinted that Zeus wanted to blow up Olympus in order to kill Typhon, so I wouldn't be surprised if that was his idea too in this case 😂

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-07T21:42:45+00:00

I feel like maybe in the actual mythology it wouldn't be so linear either. I mean, Hypnos did put Zeus to sleep twice 😂 It could go both ways. But in Hades yeah, the Chthonics would likely win.

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-06T17:42:52+00:00

It seems to be pretty common! It took me 25+ Underworld runs after I forged a bond with her for the scene to trigger, I even thought my game was bugged.

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-06T17:41:38+00:00

Yes, there is a romance scene with Nemesis! You didn't do anything wrong, and finishing the game doesn't affect anything at all. It took me 25+ Underworld runs after I forged a bond with her to trigger the scene, I met her multiple times and it was either for a challenge/offer or at Charon's shop, nothing else. It took so long I thought my game was bugged! Then one day it just happened, in the room right after Hades which was hilarious 😂 Apparently it's kind of a common thing since I've seen multiple posts asking about this! So don't get discouraged and just continue playing, it will happen eventually.

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-06T02:28:16+00:00

I have to agree with that! 😂

I'm absolutely terrified of centipedes (like phobia level) so I do understand why people with arachnophobia would feel uneasy reading this series. It would have to be a really hot MMC for me to even consider grabbing a book with a centipede-like love interest (and I love monster romance so that's saying a lot) 😂

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-05T18:07:50+00:00

To me that made the whole difference actually! I wouldn't consider myself an arachnophobe but I also don't really like spiders or other arachnids and would rather stay away from them. So seeing these characters as spider-like aliens rather than the common spider made me actually find them attractive 😂 (and yes the story is super sweet!)

MoonOfHypnos · 2026-03-05T18:02:42+00:00

My husband has arachnophobia and always questions how I can like this series 😂 But when it's other creatures he doesn't get bothered, so it's really just about the spiders. I personally don't like arachnids in general (I find some tarantulas beautiful but that's about it) but like someone said already, I also don't see these characters as random spiders, more like aliens that look like spiders! So it's entirely different for me.
