: "...Well, sincerely, they are extremely lame."
"Hey now, I may not be a punamancer but as a bard I have to keep to strict guidelines on a minimal amount per month... I've been a little on the short side all month. And since time, I'm assuming here which is rare, probably doesn't flow on a 1-1 to our home dimensions, I figured now would be the purrfect time to catch up, so sit back relax, and let me punnel you with punny puns, just a shame I never got that feat... +1 to hit with every pun would be nice."

"I sink we could dolphinately cast a few more puns to Niko. Maybe once he takes the hook, he'll stop his trouting." She said, hands hiding her smile.

Nikolai narrowed his eyes and crossed his arms at chest-height.

: "Challenge accepted. Try me."

Bowser facepalmed at the barrage of puns the two were spouting.

"Don't encourage them, Nikolai,"

: "What's got your gil, Bowser? This torrent of puns smell fishy to you?" Queen giggled a little. "Perhaps you'd prefer puns that burned a little brighter? Melodrama's cheep-cheep and sarcasm's a dime-a-Dry-Bones, but a good laugh is coinless."

Turn 11, Day 2, ???




Lift finishes the four walls. A tree is toppled due to lack of space. NOTHING STANDS IN THE WAY OF PROGRESS!!

Nikolai tries to locate some Spirer Fruit, but these trees yielded no reward.

Aidan gets the Heritage Item equipped on his forehead, and as soon as its fastened, the ends of it start blowing in the wind. Aidan suddenly feels a great determination in him! He feels much more powerful!

Dell and Aidan has business with Ding after Queen handed the elf the headband:

: "Alright, lets get you up and running Dell!"



As the bell started to toll, Dell remembered his dear old grandfather, his father and his entire heritage. He remembers the early years, the school days and the proud day he got his first PhD. The familiar smells of his home, the gentle breeze that seemed oh so magical in the silent night. He remembered building his first turret, making his first proper blueprints, it all came back to him. As he remembered the past, it all just whent away with a single breath. The bell stopped tolling for now.



After paying for the second skill from the Cube's stash, the bell tolled again. This time, the world around him seemed to become components. All of it could be reconstructed, improved, made better in every concievable way! The trees would manufacture the fruit with special systems and improved transportation circuits inside. The ground toiled and became metal, which in turn would rise and become deadly machinery, either destroying the nearby foes or constructing helpers and turrets to keep them at bay. After all, all you need is more gun, right? He got a little terrified at the end though, as the machines produced robots similar to those he had helped destroy countless of back in the machine wars. He snapped to his senses as the bell stopped tolling.

Aidan wanted to pay, but noticed that Dell depleted most of the tones. Queen noticed, and decided to hand over her 10 Tones so he could learn his abilities. He couldn't keep the last one though, so Queen hung on to that.



Aidan closed his eyes and the bell knelled. He saw his kingdom, his men and his friends. He saw his training years, and the time he had used playing his flute. All of it at once, from beginner to adept to the mastery he knew and loved. He saw the grief on his fellow soldiers as they marched to war, and the happiness he brought them with his music. He faintly remembered the screams of combat, and he opened his eyes again as the bell stopped for now. Another memory snuck in just as he regained his bearings, the image of Sadie smiling at him.



The bell rung again, this time it caught Aidan by surprise. The land around him seemed to dance with joy, his old songs playing in the wind. The world seemed a better place, as even the foes stopped aggressing and instead decided to dance in silent joy. Then, the land changed, out of the ground rose a prison made of thorns. In the middle, he felt a powerful creature staring out at him. A creature made of veins and blood, pulsing with pure cruelty. He was at first horrified, but soon realized that he had nothing to fear. The creature's repulsive form beated like a heart, to the beat of his own. The imagery disappeared as the world came back.

REGIS pushed the button of the Turret Controls, which quickly started to hum:



ANOTHER Uniq spawned from the controls!

: "Hurp..."

: "BROTHER BLAM!! COM'ERE YOU OLD SCALLYWAG!!"

: "Oh-hurp... Hello brother Lift. I didn't know you were aro-hurp..."

: "Let me explain my brother's function, since he has some trouble talking: Brother Blam can make turrets! just give him a large item in the area and 10 Tones, and he will make that into an automated turret that can take out enemies while you guys look the other way! Give him 20 Tones and he can turn a large item into a Magnet, that will attract the items dropped by the foes! That's the only things he can on a basic level though, but find his upgrade pellets and you can really start making some fancy machinery!"

: "Thank you brother Lift, that was nice of yo-hurp... Im going to rest a bit."

Blam disappeared back into the turret controls.



Sadie deposited her Bow and her Root and have now located 2 Spirer Fruit.



She squashes them together with her alchemical powers, learning ways to make them more effective! The Spirer Fruit Mash recipe is learned!

Bowser and Cora found the seal on the Dungeon entrance, and hastely pried it open.



Boom! A large firework seemed to shoot out of the hatch and explode into a big red five! Suddenly a voice boomed over the area:

: "HIIISHIISHIISHIISHIII!!! FOOLS!!! YOU UNLOCKED THE DUNGEON!! SHIISHIISHIIIII!! YOU BETTER GET IN THERE BEFORE THE TIMER HITS ZERO!!"

The booming voice was gone as fast as it appeared, but the heroes did notice that the five kept its position above them.

Aidan massaged his temple with his free hand.

"We discover some sort of tunnel that might just end up over an endless expanse and here we are making puns?"

He laughed, remembering the visions that had just occurred. "I love this group."

But before he could say anything else to anyone, the Reaper came and went with some kind of ultimatum. Threats like these were not to go unheeded, especially after...Kaina.

He cast one look at Queen before address the general other, "Grab Cube, someone! Let's move! Into the tunnel, now!"

Go, go, go!

On being the first, inspect the surroundings for any signs of life or the composition of what-must-be-the-walls.

: "Ah, ticking timer? Let us get on that. But first..."

Queen walked over to the Cube and dropped her last Tone in. Afterwards, she grabbed the bow and Terranome root out of it. Then she walked over to the Duplicator to create one last item. She put the Generic Bow in and used the Terranome Root as a material.

Dell blinked and held his head for a moment. "Hrm. Does that always happen? Seems a bit depressin'."
He frowned as another mechanical like voice echoed from below. "Did that thing just say it could make turrets and such? He grit his teeth. It sounded suspiciously like another robot out to get his job. "Why that little- what the?"
His face took on a grim determination as he heard the newest voice announce itself. "This is one of them challenges, right?" He tipped his had forward. "Alright then, lets show this dump of deranged data what good ol' texas machinery can do! But first..."

Drop a teleporter exit.

"A dungeon? This is gonna be fun! Been itching for a good fight." Bowser said grinning. "And we can take it over too! Dungeons are always useful. Especially the ones with lava pits. Great natural resources! Maybe we can find a good creature for you to tame too, Cora. Hey Reggie, you got the cube, right? Grab the Grim chest and bring it with. Just in case." When everyone was ready, Bowser would head on into the dungeon.

Nikolai sighed and put his arms behind his head, the sword safely "sheathed" in one of the straps that hung from behind his jacket's neck.
: "Let's just get going. I'd make a Dungeons and Dragons joke, but that would be too cheap." he comments, knowing full-well he'll end up making one anyway. "And hey, catch. You guys seem to be forgetting to feed."

Get two Pastes from the Cube and toss them to Sadie and Queen, then enter the dungeon.

: "I just hope this Dungeon does not favor magical classes or cheap powergamers."

"You have Dungeons and Dragons in your world too? I was Sadmash the Mer-Barbarian in mine. I had a vorpal returning keen greatsword of flaming slashy goodness +4!" Sadie replied, in a suspiciously nerdy way.

....

"Onward to adventure!" *pretends to roll dice*

Action: Eat my Spirer Fruit Mash, yum. Since my items are claimed, do some research on the banana if there's time!

Head into the dungeon when everyone is ready.
