I could have easily lost this one too, exploration was harsh. Despite yoyoing I was forced to glyph spike 2 mosters in the leveling phase, because I simply had no visible popcorn around me and I needed to catch up in levels to feed on monsters.
Also this is the first goat run ever where I prepped GG but didn't have the opportunity to dump food for piety. By the time I solved my issues GG didn't show up anymore.
Lucky I kept my piety somewhat high in the early game, so when I jumped to Binlor I could request his Endiswall.
