<span style="font-size: 20px">Answer: <span class="spoiler-text">Skald</span></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 20px">Explanation: <span class="spoiler-text">The term for a burn from a liquid is ‘scald’, which, when replaced with a k, gives ‘Skald’. Additionally, the Skald was split into the Hauntaurskald and Esterskald in the Cafe and Diner’s pre-history.</span></span>

THE OWNER<br>

Really, #71? You might need to brush up on your demonic history, all things considered. There is, of course, a quite famous Skald split in two. Skald, by the by, sounds like scald, just a switch of the c and k. Bedda is also a nod to historic skald poets if Complexico was trying to keep things level for Flipside players. Are there Flipside players in this game? I mean, of course, the Cafe—though we are certainly more accustomed to coffee than not. Compleixco never did specify how many players would be in his comeback spectacular, outside of the obvious two: Us and the Open Doors Church.

Regardless, we’re getting close to the end. Hopefully, we will be the first to reach it to secure Complexico’s mysterious prize. While I don’t know what he might give out, I know that it’ll be something cosmically dangerous—it always is. That, and a sticker and certificate. How fun. Does anyone have thoughts on the penultimate puzzle?

<i>“The game draws to an end so let us unwind.<br>
Yet don’t despair…<br>
There is still plenty of pep!<br>
Sin, after all, is in.<br>
And soon escapes Theli!<br>
Case in point, let’s let loose a little.<br>
Be at ease!<br>
Pro, you might think me… but I had to do that one backward… Awkward.”</i></span>
