Brainstorm for Chapter Five:

Beats to cover in Chapter Five:

Full Beat - 7. It Was You All Along: The main characters realize they can bring love, safety, and unity to each other, helping each heal and understand they’re not alone in their struggles. MC2 acts as a supportive counterpart, making MC1 feel secure. The tension between the main characters builds, leading to a pivotal moment where they express their feelings for each other, often culminating in a kiss (or more) (SWIND).

Half Beat - 8. What’s That?: In this part of the story, the hero encounters physical temptations that challenge their focus on the quest. They need to resist these temptations to earn a bigger reward later on, and they'll face a few until they figure it out. After a strong connection, the love interests start to feel uncertain and let their fears creep back in, which complicates things for them.

- Unknown to Luilia, Joppy's kin had plans for her powers and needed her to be virginal until the marriage and that's why Joppy wouldn't have sex with her.

- the man at the gate is "the Space Cowboy", aka Wes' brother.  He is getting his moon cows into his space ship and offers them a ride to the safety of space with him. the "moon sex boat"???

- Wes' brother recognizes Joppy's carriage and starts to yell at Joppy to go away, he's fucked enough prostitutes this week or something.  Maybe Joppy has a secret family at the ranch, "Dakari Duskhollow"?  Either way, Lulia is horrified to know he was fucking and just not fucking her.

- Lulia comes out of the carriage, and the gateman has heard of her, because Joppy complained about her in town.  Or the gateman knows of Joppy's family and their need for Lulia and her powers??

- Lulia says Joppy and her broke up and she has his carriage for now.  The gateman lets his guard down and says how shitty Joppy was in town, maybe the prostitute admissions come out now or something??

- Lulia explains they are being chased and the gateman offers his space moon cow space boat??

- While on the space boat, Cannon plays the lute and everyone has a fun time, then Cannon plays for Lulia alone in the room and they have a very steamy sex scene.  

- Gateman knows about Lulia's powers and can explain them to her.  

- Going back to the nobles: we see Wes is still alive, they arrive at Dakari Duskhollow just in time to see the ship taking off.
