(yes, really)

In the series’ latest episode, “Logistics In The Northern Plateau,” we learn that many of this world’s elves have sought to blunt the enormity of their near-endless existences by chasing a goal or purpose of some kind.

The Details

But what happens when that goal ends up fulfilled? Or even worse, what happens when a centuries-spanning project ends up a total dud?

Meet someone wrestling with this dilemma. As the gang hangs out in one of the Northern Plateau’s rare cities, where they enjoy delicious-looking steak and soft bread (this will prove important later in the episode), Frieren once again seems eager to leave for an unspecified reason.

Why This Matters

The second episode of this season , “The Hero Of The South,” taught us that this probably means there’s someone around here she wants to avoid. He had before crossed paths with our protagonist on her last journey. Specifically, Fass tried to recruit her group to help him find Boshaft, a legendary liquor that apparently dates back to an ancient Romanesque empire that once ruled the entire continent.

This is exactly the kind of news that gets fans excited or concerned.

Key Takeaways

• This guy has been trying to find it for more than 200 years.
• Usually, she goes out of her way to honor her former comrades’ wishes, even when it is insanely inconvenient.
• Fass shows them the mining network he built to find the legendary liquor.

The Bottom Line

Usually, she goes out of her way to honor her former comrades’ wishes, even when it is insanely inconvenient. Fass shows them the mining network he built to find the legendary liquor.
