It's pretty likely that the queen is going to die before the end of the series, especially if Total Victory is the canon ending. I don't know if you can get that ending without killing the part of her soul in the Tower of the Nisse. It would be really interesting if there's a power struggle for the throne in 3 or if your decisions end up shaping what happens to Haven at the very end. We're almost certainly going to see the second failure next game, but things like your reputation will likely carry over and I'd be surprised if the faction choices didn't have an effect.

This game is my favorite new Spiderweb release in a good while. It feels like the game took a lot of what I liked and disliked about Avadon's political storytelling and improved it by narrowing the game's focus to the 3 vassal nations. The combat system took a while for me to get into, but it feels pretty satisfying to end a fight without taking damage and only using 1 to 2 energy. It's also open ended enough for me to change up my playthroughs both in terms of exploration and fort design. I'm really interested to see what's next, and while I'm looking forward to playing the Geneforge remaster I can't wait to see what Queen's Wish 2 looks like.
