Considering to start a mist world stream on audio pub again tonight, which probably, means it's gonna happen.
My plan is doing it around the same time as on tuesday, that is, in about 3 to 4 hours from now.
What I'll do.
1. Gang missions.
2. Boss fights, if we get teams.
3. Arena fights.
4. Some farming, killing stuff, somewhere.
5. And maybe, a tutor dungeon with my pupil if he's available.
Of course, with my trusty ork again. It has a couple new things to it, which you'll see in the stream.
That's the plan for now, and if it works out, will see ya once I start.

📕 Word of the Day: valedictory

valedictory • \val-uh-DIK-tuh-ree\ • adjective

Valedictory describes something expressing or containing a farewell.

// The valedictory speech given by the department chair moved several faculty members to tears.

📝 Examples:
“Did I regret not catching a retrospective showing of ‘Little Miss Sunshine,’ in a special valedictory program of Sundance sensations from over the years? Perhaps—though not as much as I regretted missing the screening of Ryan Fleck and Anna Boden’s ‘Half Nelson’ (2006). That’s the title that I remember most fondly from my first year at Sundance ...” — Justin Chang, The New Yorker, 31 Jan. 2026

📜 Did you know?
Valedictory addresses delivered by valedictorians at high school and college graduations are as much a sign of spring in the United States as baseball games and cookouts. Though we don’t know where the first valedictory address was given, we do know that such addresses were an institution at some colleges in the U.S. by the time Noah Webster wrote his famous 1828 dictionary. (We also know that valedictory was used in non-academic settings—mostly churches, and especially in the phrase “valedictory sermon”—from the mid-1600s.) Since a valedictory speech is given at the end of an academic career, it is perfectly in keeping with the meaning of its Latin ancestor, valedīcere, which means “to say goodbye.”

📕 Word of the Day: interloper

interloper • \in-ter-LOH-per\ • noun

An interloper is a person who intrudes in a place or sphere of activity; they are not wanted or welcome by the other people present.

// Summer residents were regarded as interlopers who lacked a commitment to the town's welfare.

📝 Examples:
"... my garden is wildlife friendly, sometimes too friendly. By not being overly concerned about interlopers, it welcomes birds and bugs now, including beneficial insects. They help keep things in balance. Not so welcome are rabbits, but they still find their way in." — David Hobson, The Waterloo (Ontario) Region Record, 16 Apr. 2026

📜 Did you know?
If you keep chickens, a coyote loping around in the vicinity of your coop is not welcome. You'd be justified, both semantically and etymologically, in calling such a coyote an interloper. The -loper part of interloper shares an ancestor with the Old English verb hlēapan, meaning "to leap," and the Dutch verb lopen, meaning "to run." (The verb lope does too.) The prefix inter- means "between" or "among," so an interloper is essentially one that leaps in among others (for example, a flock of hens) without an invitation to do so. Interloper made itself at home among English speakers in the late 1500s; the verb interlope, which arrived close in tow in the early 1600s, is likely a back-formation.

📕 Word of the Day: redolent

redolent • \RED-uh-lunt\ • adjective

As a synonym of aromatic, the word redolent can describe something that has a noticeable smell without specifying the scent, but more often it is accompanied by of or with and means “full of a specified fragrance,” as in “redolent with incense.” Redolent can also describe something that causes thoughts or memories of something, as in “music redolent of the 1980s.”

// The late-spring meadow was redolent of wildflowers and petrichor.

📝 Examples:
“The store is redolent with the aroma of warm chocolate and an ambience evoking the agricultural roots of cacao with plants and growing tunnels.” — Robert Channick, The Chicago Tribune, 13 Feb. 2026

📜 Did you know?
Redolent traces back to the Latin verb olēre (“to smell”) and is a relative of olfactory, “of, relating to, or connected with the sense of smell.” In its earliest English uses in the 15th century, redolent simply meant “having an aroma.” Today, it usually applies to a place or thing permeated with odors. Scent and memory are famously linked, and an extended use of redolent to mean “evocative” or “suggestive” links them again, as in “lollipops redolent of childhood.”

📕 Word of the Day: engender

engender • \in-JEN-der\ • verb

Engender is a formal word that means “to be the source or cause of something.”

// Our monthly book club meetings started as a way to connect and ended up being a great place to engender unity and build life-long friendships.

📝 Examples:
“... ‘During a moment defined by anti-intellectualism, escapism, and AI tools that let you skip cognitive work entirely ... intellectual creators are doing something kinda countercultural,’ says Death To Stock’s culture researcher Agus Panzoni. These influencers, who have already built established communities around intellectual pursuits, hold greater meaning and engender more trust ...” — Markiel Magsalin, Vogue, 15 April 2026

📜 Did you know?
A good paragraph about engender will engender understanding in the reader. Like its synonym generate, engender comes from the Latin verb generare, meaning “to generate” or “to beget,” and when the word was first used in the 14th century, engender meant “propagate” or “procreate.” That literal meaning having to do with creating offspring (which generate shared when it was adopted in the early 16th century) was soon joined by the “to cause to exist or develop, to produce” meaning most familiar to us today. Generare didn’t just engender generate and engender; regenerate, degenerate, and generation have the same Latin root. As you might suspect, the list of engender relatives does not end there. Generare comes from the Latin noun genus, meaning “origin” or “kind.” From this source we took our own word genus, plus gender, general, and generic, among other words.

📕 Word of the Day: crux

crux • \KRUKS\ • noun

Crux refers to the most important part of something (such as a problem, issue, or puzzle). It is often used in the phrase "the crux of."

// The crux of the problem is that the project's budget is totally inadequate.

📝 Examples:
"The new trees number in the thousands. ... What will become of this nursery in the wild in the next hundred years, or thousand, is the crux of a scientific and policy dispute. Starkly different visions of how the grove will recover in the long run have implications on how forest managers should act today." — Doug Smith, The Los Angeles Times, 15 Mar. 2026

📜 Did you know?
Latin speakers used crux to refer literally to an instrument of torture, often a cross or stake, and figuratively to the torture and misery inflicted by means of such an instrument. When English speakers adopted crux in the early 18th century, they used it to mean "a puzzling or difficult problem." In the late 19th century, crux developed a more specific use referring to an essential point of a legal case that required resolution before the case as a whole could be resolved. Today, the verdict on crux is that it can be used to refer to any important part of a problem or argument, inside or outside of the courtroom.

📕 Word of the Day: palatable

palatable • \PAL-uh-tuh-bul\ • adjective

Palatable describes something that has a pleasant or agreeable taste, or that is pleasant or acceptable to someone.

// Our group was pleasantly surprised that the food options at the local fair were actually palatable this year.

// Given the traffic downtown, traveling by train is a palatable alternative to driving.

📝 Examples:
“[Toni] Morrison’s work was not meant to be a palatable salve. Instead, surprise and provocation are the ingredients of her fiction.” — Edna Bonhomme, The New Republic, 6 Mar. 2026

📜 Did you know?
It may be a coincidence that you can’t spell the word palatable without all of the letters in plate (the two words are etymologically unrelated), but this fact may help you remember that palatable is synonymous with a host of words that can describe an enjoyable meal, from tasty to toothsome. Alternatively, you could just stick your finger in your mouth and touch the roof of your mouth, aka your palate. As the palate was once considered the seat of one’s sense of taste, so the word palate eventually came to refer to both a literal and figurative sense of taste (as in “architecture too ornate for my palate”). The adjective palatable arose from palate (via the now-rare verb palate defined in our Unabridged dictionary as “to taste or relish”) in the 17th century, and functions similarly. Seasonings from adobo to za’atar make food more palatable, certainly, but ideas and advice can be made more palatable, too. As a wise woman once sang, a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down.

📕 Word of the Day: permutation

permutation • \per-myoo-TAY-shun\ • noun

Permutation is a formal word for any one of the many different ways or forms in which something exists or can be arranged. It can also refer to a major or fundamental change in something based primarily on rearrangement of its existing elements. Permutation is usually used in its plural form.

// Early permutations of the design look nothing like the final result.

// The system has gone through several permutations.

📝 Examples:
“Megadeth have weathered nearly all of metal’s generational permutations, only once deviating from their ... formula with 1999’s infamously confused country’n’industrial mish-mash, Risk.” — Eli Enis, Pitchfork, 26 Jan. 2026

📜 Did you know?
“Ch-ch-changes!” David Bowie sang memorably in his classic (and appropriately titled) hit “Changes,” which concerns the phenomenon of artistic reinvention—something Bowie knew a lot about. In fact, he could have titled the song “Permutations,” though we admit that the word would have been a bit clunkier to sing. Permutation is, after all, all about change—specifically change (as in character or condition) of something based primarily on rearrangement of its existing elements. For example, Bowie’s artistic persona went through many permutations over the course of his career, from the alien rock star Ziggy Stardust to the aristocratic Thin White Duke, with the common denominator—the existing elements—being Bowie himself. (Permutation can also be used for a form or variety resulting from such changes, and can thus refer to Bowie’s individual personae as well.) Permutation, perhaps ironically, has not changed all that much since it was borrowed into Middle English from Anglo-French as permutacioun.

📕 Word of the Day: unctuous

unctuous • \UNK-chuh-wus\ • adjective

Unctuous is a word that’s undergone change in recent years. It now often describes food that is fatty and oily, especially in a pleasing way. Formerly it was more typically applied as a formal adjective describing someone who is figuratively oily—that is, overly or insincerely flattering. Both uses can be found today.

// Braising chicken thighs with their skins on creates a rich, unctuous sauce that can be spooned back over the finished dish.

// The mayor’s unctuous assistant was making the rounds at the fundraiser, chatting up those known to have the biggest bank accounts.

📝 Examples:
“The thinly sliced pork belly is shaved into curlicues and cooks up super quickly and crisply, so it’s great for an impatient group or as a first round. Thick slices are more akin to what you’d find at Korean BBQ restaurants nowadays; they’ll cook and sizzle in their own fat … resulting in juicy, unctuous bites.” — Irene Yoo, Soju Party: How to Drink (and Eat!) Like a Korean, 2025

📜 Did you know?
Unctuous is a slippery word in multiple ways. Its ultimate source is a Latin word meaning “to anoint; to smear or rub with oil or an oily substance,” and this oily character was key to the word’s meaning when it first appeared in the 14th century, as when John Trevisa wrote “Þe fruit of olyue is ful of liȝt, likynge, and vnctuous” (in modern English: “the olive fruit is bright, delicious, and unctuous”). Unctuous here means “fatty” or “oily,” as did its immediate Medieval Latin predecessor unctuosus. This same use of unctuous is quite prominent today, as the word often describes deliciously fatty foods and the sensation of such foods on the palate (as in “an unctuous mouthfeel”). But come across unctuous in literature of the 19th or 20th century and you’re more likely to see a less pleasant application, with the word describing a person or behavior that is figuratively oily—that is, overly or insincerely flattering.
