Well, I’ve reached a new personal worst. Summon number 60 before the first 5 star. At least the game gave me doubles for the horrifying pity rate.
Had sparked for Ophelia and got 4 star specials Duo Eph, Sigurd, Lethe and F!Morgan on the way.
Now the choice of giving Arete a new tome or OG Ophelia SS4 and TP… tough call. I use Ophelia more so should probably go for her. Then maybe when I can get a second copy for Arete there’ll be Atk/Res Finish bridge fodder.
Against my better judgment I decided to go for the spark in order to get “easy” mythic merges. Yeah.
Only got one shitty F!Julia and not even a 4* special on the way. 
Bro! This is the 3rd year in a row I got the book opener OC on a free summon/ticket. My luck is absolutely insane. The funny thing is I completely went broke spending all the new Book quests/story Orbs sparking for Legendary Veronica which I got by the way, so I literally had 0 Orbs so I couldn’t even summon if I wanted to. But the game still said: Here you go! Also got Rhajat and F!Lilith also on free summons/tickets. In the words of Boey: “My luck is almost scary” today!
I think this is a sign to just not try at all after tickets.
The irony/link between the focus units and what I got here is just 
.
Burned all 140ish orbs I been hoarding up to reach the spark. It’s somewhat meh in quantity but Im generally pleased with folder quality. Bonus: can you guess the units got blurred out?
I decided to pull full circles for a cheap spark on the Mythic and I’d be happy with any others for fodder. The haul:
1x Seidr (spark)
1x R!Ophelia
1x Caeldori
2x Dwyer (1x 5-star)
Not bad at all!
I’d call 5 5*s before the spark fantastic quantity. Honestly I’d call 2 a good day.
Yah, honestly anything is better than nothing… I’ve had runs were I didn’t get a single 5* before the spark
I was on track for my monthly 5x Book 1 disappointment until Brave Lysithea showed up at the end. I’ll take it.
This cost me 254 orbs but my goal was complete.
3 R!Ophelias achieved with two Seiors, oddly two F!M!Morgans and Midoris back-to-back and other goodies.
Much better results than the Halloween banner since I actually got the focus units.
I aimed for at least one Seidr, then decided to be an ass because who needs to score anymore. Just ruining peoples days is enough for me in ar now adays
She’s +res -Atk. Fine with me. 
I’ve still yet to get L.Veronica… I got L.Nanna’s and 3 Embla’s (Sparked). If I had known I was going to get Embla’s after the spark and nVeronica’s I would have Sparked for her instead 
Games mean. Game sadistic. 
Decent start and I know I’ll spark for another S Spiral 4 anyway so I’m happy
Literally me in nutshell wtf, might actually build him up, but now I should focus on L!Veronica’s banner I need another panic smoke 4 and I already sparked it…
Spent 100ish orbs and this is all I got oof. Other rearmed heroes have been MUCH kinder to me than Ophelia. Hope to spark her so I can save the red tome for someone else potentially.
Did give her tome away immediately to someone:
Hopefully Panic Smoke 4 gets put on another unit pretty soon don’t want to fodder a Veronica for it… at least not until she’s +10
Ah, the problems with spark. I got three Askr that way and no Arval as a result.
This banner I did pretty good… 14 pulls with an Ophelia and Arthur. That includes the free pulls, so I’m happy.
Well that didn’t take long. First R!Hero I’ve actually pulled without having to spark them too. Neutral asset, but hey.
Made it to Spark.
Grand total of noteworthy units that I kept - or will merge - are:
Myrrh
Galzus
Malice (!)
Fallen Ninian
Ephraim (5*, will send home)
Ophelia x2
Seiðr (+1, including Story copy)
The second-to-last looks like Ares
