D, though I have the feeling that this will bite us in the ass.

[Haspen]

You tell him that you do not know what a powerful Wizard like him might want, and therefore ask him to name the price.

"And I shall name it. Far north of your little Kingdom, lies a mountain, Summit of Venoms, a treacherous place, and a nest of rainbow lizards. They sometimes grow a fang made of onyx-like stone, and that is powerful catalyst of magics. If I were to receive such a rare tooth, I would consider that a fair payment."

You promise to have men sent there, but he interrupts you.

"Nay, YOU shall go and bring it. It is not just the fang itself I want, but I want also to assess your courage, your determination and your heart. Show me that you are indeed worthy of my aid." After some internal discussion, you decide to...

A) Agree to the demand and venture forth, alone, to obtain this rare Onyx Fang of a Rainbow Lizard.
B) Reject this demand as you have a Kingdom to rule and responsibilities to fulfill.

[Swordstar]

A!

[IamanElfCollaborator]

A. If nothing else, our wife will know we died for her.

[Taricus]

Fuck it, let's help that unwashed nutter. A

because fuck it. At least we're not yoloing at a dragon, and the people ruling in our absence are okayish.

[TempAcc]

ALAS, TIS A QUEST, WE ARE MIGHTY QUAESTORS, FOR LIZARD TOOTH AND ELF BOOTY

Alternatively, it might be a good idea to nominate a faithful regent while we're away.

You agree, despite the pleas of Queen Mother and the advisor to not go on such a dangerous quest.

The wizard will be traveling around your Kingdom, but you should not worry - he will know exactly when to return to your Palace.

Next morning, the sky is cloudy and thin rain wets the ground. You, King of Luathbas, armed with a sword, protected by chainmail, and with a bag of necessary supplies and food, leave your castle and travel northwards.


Congratulations! Houlandin II have embarked upon an Epic Quest!

It will be a lengthy adventure that will heavily involve combat, diplomacy or both. He will be restricted by Supplies, however; if he runs out of these, he will be forced to return home, lest he starves to death (there will be of course chance encounters or options to replenish Supplies a bit).


Less than a week later, you leave a house of the nobleman dwelling northernmost in your Kingdom. You are leaving your subjects behind and enter the wilderness.

Far in the north, you can see a mountain chain. The nobleman was kind enough to point that the Summit of Venoms is the second tallest of the mountains in the chain, and is quite in the 'front' of the other mountains. For now, you decide to...

A) Follow the overgrown cobblestone road that snakes northwards.
B) Cut right through this dense conifer forest to save supplies and mayhaps even time.
C) Follow the nearby river; rivers often have their sources in the mountains, after all.

(Supplies: 11)

[Elephant Parade]

Forests are, like, dangerous. A.

[TempAcc]

Our wife may be an elf, but we are not, so fuck forests. Roads are, however, also specially dangerous because THIEEEEVES.

[Haspen]

You decide to follow the overgrown road that snakes northwards.

The road goes and goes till finally evening approaches, and you need to camp for the night, to prepare a meal and get some sleep.

(Supplies: 10)

In the morning, you can see that the road continues northwards. Of course, you can always enter the forest that is right between you and the mountains.

A) Continue along the road.
B) Enter the forest.
