[Kitten Snot]

You attack some random cat's mind. Sadly, that random cat was a priest of one of their many gods, guessing from the church inside the mind. You act clever about it and climb the walls, first.
The priest itself wanders out, wielding a flaming whip in his hand and dressed in some kind of heavenly rag. Brown and ugly, like all friggin' priests.
You jump down and rake alongside his back with your claws, cutting it wide-open. His reaction time leaves something to be desired, and you kick him over. He dies from that, surprisingly.

You open your eyes again and discover that cats see a lot better then you can. The dark spots hold no secrets.
Also, this guy was tripping balls. You feel a weird sense of elation and have too much energy. Still, you perform the mark on this guy and whomever gets close.
After about 10 however, you're pretty tuckered out. You don't have mana, being a creature of pure magic, and being tired is the same as being mana-less.
Still, no more marks for today, you're pooped.
Also, still tripping balls, considering the moon just winked at you and started a duet with a trashcan singing about the starlight.
You've got no clue what to ask for surrounding info. So that leaves you here, at night, in the middle of the street.
High as a kite.

Inform Moon that Trashcan has been intimate with an abundance of random strangers. Inform Trashcan that Moon is in a stable relationship with the stars and that it should be ashamed to bring such misery into the world.

How about fuck this stupid quest go back to our city {{meta teleport if need be}} and just cause damage. This game i felt went haywire after "theirs a hero you can't kill but if you act nice and let him drag you out of the city then you can help him save the world by finding armoks.." ballcocks i can't remember what. It was something to craft on..lonely tunes drop it on each others heads? dammit i feel stupid.

It's a world-ending superweapon. That is why we want it.

[gman8181]

Yeah, I don't think we should stop what we're doing but a little more interaction with our various city operations would be nice.

Anyway, find out how they get their substances and contaminate the source somehow. That's all I got.

Moral quandaries are often applauded when applied to heroic pursuits. Why would villainous efforts be any different?

[Kitten Snot]

You know what, I agree.
I dug myself into a hole and kept digging, so what do you people want. A timeskip back before the quest started, or just leaving the schmuck behind?
The timeskip will be canon, and you will keep your levels, abilities and experiences, but nobody will know or remember.
Seum will be removed from existence.

If you have a better idea, feel free to leave it in the comments.

[gman8181]

A quick wrap up? Oh the Anvil is here! Final boss battle commence and then we go home with some additional power or whatever.

I prefer just to go home. I know the Captain of the gaurd was killed {we took him over and then got him killed} and was later revived on the order of the Count or w.e.

We should just go home with our litte prizes thus far and begin a real Insurrection against the Count. Also can our priestess be loyal to us again? i feel it's stupid that she just wasn't :/

Well I liked the quest, was a chance to get out into the world, encounter new situations, shaky allies and interesting chances to twist otherwise good people to evil.
But if you don't want to do it that is fine.

If we want a way out we could have someone else show up, someone that could play our part that has already gathered the rest of the people/knows where they are, Seum ditches us, finishes his quest with them, promises to come back and get us back for what we did to all those innocent people, we get a possibly powerful enemy or two far off in the future. Whether he actually survives his quest to do so is a consideration.
Our god is just as in the dark about us being lead on as we are, sends us back.

Or we were just a possible candidate for this prophecy, but with our actions towards him (particularly the recent destroyed fort) we fucked it up, so they (the gods) just had us escort him to this city where our replacement is.

Meh, I'm no writer, just saying "fuck it" and ditching would probaly be fine, do what you want.

Honestly it dosen't sound bad {the story fix thing}. I feel we can reach out into the world but i beleive it must be done slowly. Like having a strong influence in the city that the count can't break so he calls in higher level warriors/mercenaries to come after us, the duke gets pissed at us too, and have other human kingdoms or other racial nations going CIA on the city supporting us with stuff to destabilize the nation were in.

Oh an lets just say that there are {atm at least} a dwarven fortress belonging to the dwarven kingdom fallen but no one knows yet, a elven federation lead by some king/queen, the human kingdom where our base is, a nation of demons who keep to themselves and are the target of the other nations, and to top it off goblin/ogre tribes.

Everyone of course hates the demon but they hate each other too and crave power,fame, wealth, and land. cool?

One advantage of being inside a cat that took more drugs then the average human could possibly handle is that it makes you think.
Why did you agree to follow some random asshole with some chosen benefits. You've had better things to do...
Put ordered you. Damn it, how are you going to do anything of note with him hounding you on the chosen quest BS.
Ye don't need to be havin' a worry. Sumetin' jus' came up.
And that something would be me.
...WHAT. I was thinking to myself and instantly I ended up in this conversation? I didn't even get a warning, or some fore-shadowing or anything. This is sloppy story writing dammit!
Shut up and lemme retcon. Kind of. Anyway, I'm the reason there's a quest in the first place. My anvil, the chosen one, your involvement... All that, my doing.
Whaddaya mean "your" anvil?
Oh shush, I'm Armok, if it wasn't clear by now. I created this world and keep it interesting by making this stuff. If it bores me enough I make another world on my anvil and drop the first anvil somewhere in the world so civilisation can grow. But here, I realized something.
Adventures like Seum's conundrum are a dime a dozen, but how often do I get to watch the growth of a new empire? So, tell you what. Leave him.
Kill Seum, if you want to. I just removed his only reason to exist anyhow, and he's been mind-controlling you with sorcerer magic stuff.

You sputter in surprise and indignation before growling in anger and forcibly going into the real world.
So he's a sorcerer. That explains why just kind of agreed on killing the troll, and jumped out of the window a while ago....
Son of a whore.
Your claws come out of your fingers (and toes). Your host may be a mangy house-cat, but the claws seem good enough.
You climb the hospital your damn self, basically working on the sheer power of your anger (and shoddy building work +claws) to keep yourself going. You arrive at the window, and nab the guard standing nearby by his collar and pull him off. His screams please you on a deep level that you've kind of missed.
Seum is already up, holding his rapier. You storm towards him, jump, and...
manage to get yourself speared on his rapier. you force yourself closer, and scratch at his head.(roll=8) the claws still go deep, causing him to flinch.

You reform behind him, and run him through with your own claws.(roll=20+5 surprise bonus+1 disarmed=26 )You make sure your grin is the last thing he ever sees before he coughs up a piece of lung and croaks.
You dump his body out of the window, and make your gassy escape towards your undead horse before the guards get here.
That was fucking fun. Make a straight run back towards your city?

And that marks the end of this specific bit of terrible writing, tune in next time I stop being lazy for more of horrible writing!

Lets stop by the town we visited earlier, the one with the possessed mayor, since we will be passing it on the way.

Or we could find a goblin tribe to take over, so we bring something other an undead horse and a sword back.

Could just grab another body for the road.

[scrdest]

OK, cult ideas: I feel a straight-up religion is not beneficial. After all, a plain ol' church is, with all things said and done, about living what you believe, faith and other boringly good ideals, and Put feeds on sin, not worship.

Instead, create an Inner Party Circle of acolytes that would as Secret Service... of EVIL! MWAHAHA!

So, they would infiltrate adventuring parties, courts, cities and what-have-you and steer the people towards betraying their own principles.

As a bonus, especially effective attempts would destabilize the regions and make it easier to march in with our Evil Army of Evil.
