Seuche also buys Quickslash for 5 Tones! Yay!

That's together with the existing action of; Seuche attempts to heft the Eastern Breeze. If she can't, she'll ask the various cuboids if it's possible to make a version of it she can somehow.

[freeformschooler]

"Ah, Solo. Good kid. Still can't date my daughter." She crossed her arms. "Now, again: how do you recognize me?"

: "I don't know how to explain exactly, but you are a fictional character in my world." he finally answered "There are interactive stories from a series called 'Legend of Zelda', in which the expectators usually play the part of Link, who is, in turn, is supposed to save Princess Zelda."

Queen seemed frozen in place for a moment, as if she was trying to understand but could not.

: "Solo Hero... saves Princess Zelda?" She looked down at the ground for an uncomfortably long time. "But, how could..."

Queen smiled a little. She didn't know what Nikolai meant by "Legend of Zelda" or "fictional character", but if he knew how events would play out while she was gone somehow, it didn't matter how he knew.

: "Thank you, Nikolai! Great news! Daughter might be safe after all. What else do you know about my world?"

EDIT: If there were enough leftover tones after everyone else had spent them on what they wanted, Queen attempted to learn Mollify.

[Tiruin]

Sadie nodded.

"More or less. I'm still hurt inside, but [...] I like when you smile like that, Aidan. You should do that more often."herself.

Aidan couldn't bring himself to reply so fast. What did make him smile anyway? Her charm? No. Opinion? No.

Her personality. It was unique, like a star in the night -- bright and burning with passion and warmth.

Perhaps it was time to-

*Tap Tap*

"Um...Can I borrow 6 tones from your share?"

Perfect.

"Sure Sadie, and if there is anything left, I'd prefer to take Landscaping..."

After listening to what everyone had to say, without intervention, Aidan spoke.

"Are we all agreed that the bridge is the best way to go?"

[Caellath]

: "Thank you, Nikolai! Great news! Daughter might be safe after all. What else do you know about my world?"

: "Due to the format of the games and the fact I'm not a big fan, I can't really remember much aside from the fact Link repeatedly saves Hyrule and Zelda in different occasions. Also, Ganondorf is an ass."

[Evergod41]

"Are we all agreed that the bridge is the best way to go?"

"While I would still say that the full and complete exploration of this island is one of the best things we could do at this time. I will admit that the appearance of a boss-like enemy, especially when it comes to the... erm....." Cora looks around at the group skeptically. " 'daring adventurers'... instead of us going to it, usually signifies the completion of a previous task. So I will submit to the exploration of what's beyond!"

[Fortis]

As his gaze fell on the big pile of tones that the Shogun Slasher left, Bowser's eyes practially glowed. He promptly grabbed a big handful of the tones, and went to the Bell of heroes.

"Hey! Ding! Wake up! Gimmie my fire breath back!" Bowser commanded as he held out the tones to the bell. "I got the tones now!"

[Burkhart]

REGIS reluctantly let go of Aidan, but not before turning him around and glaring, as best as a being without a true face could, in the face of the elf.

"REGGIE IS LETTUNS YOUSE GO'S NOW, BUT IFFUN YOUSE DON'TS LETTUN DA FISHLADYS HEALSUN PROPERS, REGGIE WILLS BE PUNCHUN YOUSE, AND NOTS WITHUN THE HEALUNS, EITHER."

REGIS walked past the elf and up to the newly risen Sadie. He channeled mana into his hands and grabbed Sadie's midsection, letting the healing magick seep into her. Surprisingly, the golem's voice lowered in volume to an almost soft level.

"REGGIE IS GLADS YOUSE IS ALRIGHTS. IFFUN WE'S GETS INTO DA FIGHTUN NEXT TIMES, YOU'SE STAY BEHINDS REGGIE. REGGIE DON'TS WANTS TO SEE NO ONES ELSE GETTUN HURTS LIKE DAT AGAINS."

When the healing magick from the spell ceased, REGIS turned his attention to Queen, who had just finished rearranging her hair and for some reason, was very interested in what Nikolai had to say. REGIS laid a hand on her shoulder gently for a moment.

"REGGIE IS WANTUNS TO TALKS TO YOU, BUT REGGIE DOESN'T MINDS TO WAITUN. REGGIE WILLS LOOKUNS TO MAKEUN HIS PROTECTUNS ABILITIES BETTERS IN DA MEANWHILES."

The golem then lumbered over to the cube next to Bowser, and after some thought, selected Friendly Fire from the list.

"I'S WOULDS RATHERS HAVEUN DA LIVINGS ARMORS SKILLS, BUT DIS IS GOODS TOO. LETTUNS REGGIE PROTECTUN PEOPLES BETTERS."

[freeformschooler]

: "Due to the format of the games and the fact I'm not a big fan, I can't really remember much aside from the fact Link repeatedly saves Hyrule and Zelda in different occasions. Also, Ganondorf is an ass."

: "Oh... hmm. Do not know who 'Gannondorf' is, but Solo - er, Link - has... no interest in Hyrule any more."

"REGGIE IS WANTUNS TO TALKS TO YOU, BUT REGGIE DOESN'T MINDS TO WAITUN. REGGIE WILLS LOOKUNS TO MAKEUN HIS PROTECTUNS ABILITIES BETTERS IN DA MEANWHILES."

Queen turned away from Nikolai.

: "Should be fine, the fish-girl. What did you want to speak about?"

[Dwarmin]

"REGGIE IS GLADS YOUSE IS ALRIGHTS. IFFUN WE'S GETS INTO DA FIGHTUN NEXT TIMES, YOU'SE STAY BEHINDS REGGIE. REGGIE DON'TS WANTS TO SEE NO ONES ELSE GETTUN HURTS LIKE DAT AGAINS."

Sadie nodded shyly at the concern, averting her eyes, and considering the strange golem in a new light.

[Burkhart]

: "Should be fine, the fish-girl. What did you want to speak about?"

REGIS motioned to Queen Zelda so she would follow him to the cube so he could multitask. Once again, Reggie's voice lowered to a soft speaking tone.

"DURINGS DA LAST FIGHTS, WHEN YOUSE DIDS DA HEALUNS ON REGGIE, I FELTS CONNECTEDS TO YOUSE FOR A MOMENTS. THEN SUDDENSLYS, REGGIE GETSUN AN IDEAS FOR A NEW ABILITYS TO USE TO HEALUNS EVERYONES. REGGIE JUST WANTUNS TO KNOWS IF YOU HAD THE SAMES FEELUNS HAPPENS TO YOUSE, QUEENIE."

"Queen Zelda" nodded.

: "Indeed, I felt the same. Though methods are different, our goals are similar." This was the first time she'd studied REGIS very closely. The others, at least, had some element of familiarity, but REGIS looked completely alien to her. "Though... I also feel connected to you on a different level. You understand what's most important: protecting life. The prime agenda of a healing magi."

"PROTECTUN OTHERS IS REGGIE'S ENTIRE PURPOSE. IT'S WHATS REGGIE WAS BUILTS FOR. EVENS IF REGGIE HAS TO SACRIFICUN HIMSELFS, I'S GOTS TO KEEPS EVERYONES SAFES. IT'S BETTERS FOR REGGIE TO TAKES A HIT OR EVEN DIES THAN FOR ANYONES ELSEUN TO." REGIS paused and looked at the sky for a moment. "IF REGGIE DIESUN PROTECTUNS EVENS A SINGLES LIFES, REGGIE CAN DIES HAPPY."

[Dexexe1234]

"Ding! Is it now possible for me to take Landscaping and Truesight? And does everyone plan to cross this bridge?

"Uniq, are there any knives around I could use to try to fashion something out of these sticks around here?"

: "Indeed it is so! You should have enough Tones right now for most things!"

: "Okay I just gotta say, my real name is Cube. If you haven't realized it, all of us have four letter names that correspond to the machine we fit to. Just wanted to say that. And about the knives, you should be able to find a sharp rock if you look hard enough... Wait, is that a Horror Heart that Cora has in her hands?"

Turn 22, Day 1, ???




Everyone suddenly feels a little sleepy.

Nik and Queen are both replenished by the food they decided to eat. Everyone worked together to get all the Tones into the chest, except for 3 which were the last that Cora could hold.

Seuche tries to contain the Eastern Breeze, but it fills four spots at once and she doesn't have room!

Everyone started to pay up their Tones to get their abilities back:



The bell starts ringing with no end, and bowser is suddenly back in his castle. His minions are standing ready around him, as the daily feast is being prepared and added to the great table set up in the throne hall. He could smell the meat being cooked and prepared, hear the tapping of the shy guy boots and almost feel the magic that the magikoopas created through their exercises. Ah, it truly was good to be king. Just as he started getting used to the throne again, the image stopped, and bowser was back on the flying island.

: "...Aw, damn."



The bells started to get to Cora too, as she learned her skill. She could feel the familiar grass and hear the birds from the woods. She could see her halfling friends, and the animals enjoying her music. Oh, her music! She was playing the harp, a feeling she long thought forgotten to her. As the final note of the song struck, the world around her became the real one again.

"..." *Sigh*



The world around her was nothing but water, and Sadie splashed around in it freely. Fond memories of her past came rushing in like the tide, and the time she spend studying the land dwellers came to her like a silent breeze. She could remember it all, both the good and the bad, of the world at home. Though a new memory had snuck its way in there, just a single image; Aidan, smiling.

: "...Aidan."



It didn't take long for Seuche to be back on her ship, sailing the worlds of space. Just the simple leisure of hearing the crew working around her, the false wind in the solar sail and the cargo full of precious loot. She remembered the battles she had won, some she had lost, but all were enjoyed. The final moment of the dream was of this place, the island, where a new adventure loomed. Aaah, to be free.

"Hehehe!"



The queen was suddenly stricken with fear, as her body started to grow. She could feel her hands growing talons, her back growing feathers and wings, and her face growing a beak. Around her, darkness spread as she became a humanoid hawk, her thirst for blood growing. Beasts began gathering in a circle at her feet, and she easily made them swell up and explode into a horrible series of tumors. She spewed corrupted healing power at the world, making it twist itself into gruesome images and horrible details. Just as she was about to scream, the mirage faded, and Queen came to her senses.

: "I-I..."

Queen, without even thinking about it, fell to her knees and started to cry.

As the spectable happened, Cube the Uniq had drifted over to Cora:

: "Excuse me, Cora? Can I have that Horror Heart? I can unlock what the creatures have stored inside for you!"

: "Everyone! I have gotten the stat screens running now! Go check it out on Cube's interface!"

"You want it, cube? Sure, it's not like I know how to do anything with it, plus I'm more likely to cause harm than good." Cora gives cube the heart of horror, and eats the last fruit.

"Juicy looking... but what's the taste..? Anyway, I feel like it's time for everyone to gather 'round and get the next plan together. Any ideas oh great King of Koopa?"

[freeformschooler]

Queen started to cry, but got up and brushed herself off instead. She needed to be strong. Her vision... no matter. After looking over the stat screens, she came to a conclusion.

: "Ah, believe I understand now. Everyone: watch as I do, but careful with your tones. Cube, I will purchase 5 tones of Fortitude and 10 tones of Spirit."
