The Chimeric Professor's Research Notes

The Socialite looked aside, hands folding in his lap. "I have two potential solutions. Both involve immense work that may cost me everything, but I am willing to pay any price. The game, I've put my all into resuming, convincing the fellow players. It should guarantee me exactly what I am after, should I win. If I win. But another path opens, with both more and less room for failure. I would be starting over, but my work would hardly amount to luck, as a hand of cards might. But failure may result in... dire consequences. Both lead either to failure or success, both are hard work and stress, but one is a slim guarantee and the other is a wide margin of maybe. Do I make sense?"
