Turn 29
"I knew as much..."
Kira tried to remember basic survival, on where the Fighter's guild was most probably known to be in the general sense of a cartographer.
She then examined the air temperature and the trees for any sign of moss and it's direction in relation to the sun.
Well, the Fighters Guild is commonly known to be Darius, the Capital of Tantalan. Darius is almost always to the west of where you are, being a coastal city.
| You easily remember that there are no rain forests in Tantalan, especially rain forests this size. As a matter of fact, the only places in the world that even have rainforests are Idelius and Udagar, and given that you saw an elf, Idelius is most likely where you are.
| You have no idea what the temperature could be, but you reason that it is at least 28 degrees Celsius, if not hotter. You cannot see the sun from where you are.
"Janna, let's take this guy out and move. His screaming's gonna wake the dead."
Arcane Pulse + Weak Push the thug, then get to another room.
| Your Arcane Pulse goes off without a hitch,
| but your push barely manages shoving power.
|| Your Arcane Pulse was well on it's way to finishing the job, but the thug punches your attack, making it dissipate into thin air!
|| Let's not talk about the other spell you attempted....
Janna: Seeing the thug punch the spell renders her speechless for a while, but she manages to mutter, "Spellbreaking..."
| She is in a bit of a stupor....
Enraged Thug:
| He attacks Janna, seeing as she's in her own little dream world.
|| She completely fails to react, and he sends a fist straight into her jaw, breaking it and throwing her to the ground. The blow seems to have woke her up from her stupor.
You gain +3 to Redimio Ianus! You gain +1 to Ianus Somes! You gain +2 to Ianus!
Zerus laughed a little maniacally. A giant crow warrior, how cool! He hadn't even known those existed.
"Come with me, crow! We're off to find a deadbeat and get him to return overdue library materials. Gently."
Ask around for the guy I'm looking for, crow in tow.
((You're going to go walking with a 12 foot tall crow? Okay then....))
| You quickly find the deadbeat, and you go up to him, gently asking for the material.
"HEY, MOTHERFUCKER, I HEARD YOU HAD SOME SHIT THAT YOU DON'T OWN! NOW I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU COME FROM, BUT WE DON'T LET THAT SHIT FLY WHERE I COME FROM! BITCH, I WILL BEAT YOUR ASS SIX WAYS TO SUNDAY AND THEN TAKE YOU DOWN AND ASS RAPE YOU, MOTHERFUCKER! I WILL SHIT FURY ON YOUR SOUL, AND YOU WON'T BE CONSCIOUS ENOUGH TO CLEAN UP THE MESS! WHEN I GET THROUGH WITH YOU, A FUCKING GENEALOGICAL TEST WON'T BE ENOUGH TO FIND OUT WHO YOU ARE! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME!? WHERE THE FUCK IS THE SHIT!!?"
Saying all this while having a gigantic, angry looking crow behind you is not good for the human psyche. The fool barely manages to point at the stuff the quartermaster sent you for before he defiles his pants and passes out.
Well, that's one way of taking care of a situation.
((Oh boy. Nirur, I'm not going to have internet access for a whole week, so my character is going to put onto auto pilot from Baradine. Still, I'm sure that he can handle my character as an NPC until I get back so I don't see any reason why my character can't join yours on a mission.))
"Oh! Sorry..
Well.. Oh! The bandit battle. Yeah, you seemed to almost disappear. There wasn't any trace of you at all. But anyway, I don't see why we can't do a mission together, as long as we both pull our weight, things should be fine."
Help Nirathi up, and agree to go on a mission with her.
Get a mission. If there's time, learn Repel Weapons.
((Nope, no time for learning stuff while you have MISSIONS to do))
You both go up to the mission person, and ask for a joint mission.
| The clerk seems a bit agitated today, and looks at both of you and says, "Hotshots, huh? Well I got a mission for you two that you will love."
He hands a slip of paper detailing how a large force dragon has been terrorizing the few settlements that are left in Ggryymirr.
"Oh, and this mission is mandatory. You have to complete it, or you get kicked out of the guild."
((Sorry for the delay, I was without internet connection for a while there.))
"Thanks Ricky, you did a good job tonight." Wondering whether I should report back, I decide on the quicker and more dangerous of the two choices; going in alone. Or, almost alone.
Summon my Diminutive Imp, then sneak into the home with my minions, having my imp (try to) hold Udyr hostage while I brandish my dagger menacingly.
"Hello, Udyr. I think it is time we have a chat about the location of your "employer", Reddrick."
| You summon your tiny minion, and you quietly go into Udyr's home. Looking around, you find him sleeping on his bed. You manage to tie him up to his bed without waking him up. You then stick your knife at his throat at cut it a little to wake him up.
"Wha- What the hell!" he yelled, thrashing at his binds.
You smack him in the face with the hilt of your dagger to shut him up.
"Hello, Udyr. I think it is time we have a chat about the location of your "employer", Reddrick."
His eyes widen, and then he snarls at you and says, "You ain't gonna get anything out of me. Reddrick taught me everything I know. He's like my goddamn father! I wouldn't sell him out!"
You gain +3 to Summon Diminutive Imp! You gain +2 to Everto Voco!
