Mind-bogglingly popular game series that you follow from early on and cannot stop, waiting for new installment like a drooling addict.

Long-runner soap opera you're too invested into to just stop watching it.

A fun little comic strip in the daily newspaper that's been around forever.

3/6

Who said it's fun? I didn't for sure.

I'm just waiting here for it to die horribly already so it will stop showing on my Unread Posts list.

You decide to fish for the fish before the sun sets.

Grabbing a sharp enough branch, the only fishing tool you can get in this remote location, you enter the shallows of the lake and wait.

Evening comes, and the sky turns dark, and you get nothing.

A) Let's continue the fishing.
B) Let's complain to the old man.
C) Let's camp for the night.

[Harry Baldman]

C

You can catch your death out by the lake at night.

I wish we got a lore roll to know what sort of things we are fishing for. Some fishes are easier to catch at different times of day. Early morning is always a good bet though, so might as well rest.

You decide to rest for the night.

(Supplies:

You wake early in morning, when the skies are still grey and the sun isn't out completely. It's best time to fish, some say at your court.

7!*

You spot a black silhouette and stab it, hitting it right where it counts! You pull up the bastard, and notice that it is some hideous breed between an eel and a fish, with its face opening three-ways, exposing three rows of needle-like teeth. A bite from this thing would be hella nasty and you're glad you didn't have to fight it.

1

The other doesn't show up that easily.

4

Finally, perhaps in search of its missing compatriot, the fish-eel gets to the shallows and you stab at it, but this time you miss. Much to your horror though, it springs out of the water, clapping it jaws at your face!

Fortunately you manage to cover yourself with your hand. The pain of your flesh being punctured by the needle teeth is terrible, but you gonna shake the beast off!

1

The weight of the eel and the pain in your hand causes you to lose your balance and you fall into the water!

4

With some good smacks against the rocks, you knock the fish out. You're feeling terrible, so you drag both fishes out, stab the second one for good measure, and rest to lick your wounds.

(Supplies: 7)

It's evening when you feel well enough to return to the King. You place the fish in front of his seat, and that's when he lifts his head a bit.

"Mm, yes, these will make some good eatin'..." He comments, and again, he freezes in his spot for a lengthy period of time before speaking again.

"My bed is undone... would you kindly clean it...?" The problem is, there's no bed.

A) I had enough of your delusions!
B) Obviously there are more hidden rooms here.
C) Maybe he means his sarcophagus?

An eel... is a fish though? Are you thinking of a lamprey instead? Or, considering the three-way jaw, perhaps a nematode.

C, seems the most bedlike thing about.

You decide that he must be speaking about his burial place, so you walk up to the sarcophagus and push the lid away. Sure enough, the inside is filled with thick layer of dust, with some cobwebs hugging the walls. With a piece of cloth, you do some cleaning, getting rid of the cobwebs and getting off most of the dust out. You even rub the edges of the sarcophagus for that extra touch.

When you turn around, the old King is gone (and so are the fish-eels). On his chair there's now some bone dust, half a skull, and two curious artifacts; a golden crown, and a small, sheathed knife. Both look rather old.

So, ummm...

A) Aha, this means I did well enough! Time to return home!
B) Did I miss something? Is there another NPC I need to talk with?

[crazyabe]

B.

[birdy51]

B

Ye forgot to put the body back in the bed ye silly lump.

[Harry Baldman]

B!
