[Akigagak]

Wield it as a weapon.

[JoshuaFH]

Hmm... I guess I... I Dunno. I sign up for a to-the-death match.

You start to approach the proprietor when he exclaims,

"Oh! Why looky there, it's our winner!"



In the doorway stands the masked man that beat you. He's gesturing that he wants to talk to you outside.

What do you do?

I try to make an egg hatch.
Dragondragondragondragon

You incubate the eggs the best you can.

All of a sudden, they start shaking and moving! You hold them in your hands as they bust open.



You're startled to find two newborn fairies, which have distinctively blue skin, practically featureless bodies, no wings, and closed shut eyes. Very different from adult fairies.

They wiggle about in your hands as they experience air and sunlight for the first time.

What do you do?

Examine the thong. Inspect for menacing spikes on the INSIDE. If one or less are found, wear it.

"You're most welcome, but I'm on a quest to slay some Imps, and I believe you dislike them as well! Is there any way you can help me with that, and show me the way to above-ground?"

((Whoo GCS Thong (I should have known it wouldn't be a +10 sword)!!))

You examine the thong for spikes, it has none, so you put it on. You feel pretty, even though you have a wedgy.

"I'm glad you like it!"

You ask the dwarves for a way out of this cave.

"Out you say? Well, the entire reason we're stuck down here is cause, generation ago, some jerk diverted a river into this Valley, and the river went right over our only exit. We dwarves can't dig up, so we've been stuck here ever since. If you tried real hard, you could probably make it out, but you'd probably drown in the attempt."

You think about your situation for a second, before being interrupted by the dwarves,

"Also, where is Kogan? We didn't see him come in with you."

What do you do?

[Emperor_Jonathan]

Go out and talk with the guy.

[Siquo]

I look at them with my saddest eyes.
"Kogan and I encountered the Giant Spider together. We fought it, but it was too big, too strong, and we got stuck in its webbing. Kogan fought like an elephant (I'd say bear but elephants probably impress dwarves more)! He told me to get away with the silk, and that he'd cover my exit, or all would be in vain. He died an honorable warrior's death, to save his friend from being possessed..."

With these words I bid them farewell, and try to find that leaking hatch again.

[NUKE9.13]

Awww.
I shall name them arson and manslaughter.
I pray for extremus to protect and guide my little fairies.

Kuchi kuchi koo.

If I remember correctly, you never actually saw Kogan die... now you just have to hope he did, so he can't walk up behind you and give the other dwarves a slightly different version of the story...

[Siquo]

((... I know... That's why I'm leaving. Quickly. Knowing DM's, he survived and I now have an arch-enemy.))

[NUKE9.13]

((... I know... That's why I'm leaving. Quickly. Knowing DM's, he survived and I now have an arch-enemy.))

An arch enemy with GIANT CAVE SPIDER CAVALRY.
Maybe he fused with the GCS and now he's a half dwarf, half evil cave spider...

[JoshuaFH]

Go out and talk with the guy.

You go out to talk with the Masked Man.



In front of the Arena, the man stands in front of you. He nervously looks about, making sure no one is watching.

He then undoes his head wraps.



It's Derrick the demon!

"We meet again Peasant! I followed your advice, and found those flower seeds. I didn't have any money, so instead of stealing them in broad daylight, I found some other peasant about by your town's well, ganked his clothes, and used the fabric to cover up my red skin."

You thought those rags looked familiar, looking closer, you can see the name "Siquo" embroidered on them.

"I gave the kid attending the store a good black eye and made off with the seeds. They didn't last long though as I planted all of them along the road. Walking into Baurville, I heard that some imps were pestering people in Piet and I thought 'Hey, I have some friends in some of the more prominent imp families, so maybe they can help get me out of this crapsack world', then I socked some decrepit peasant in the stomach and took his savings of 2 copper. I made it here, and heard they were hosting a combat competition, and I knew this was my lucky day. Passing myself off as human, I entered; and now, beating you, I've doubled that 2 copper 8 times, and now I have 5 gold, 11 silver, and 2 copper. I can get some decent human weapons in case the first plan doesn't work out well. Since I saw you here, I thought I'd stop and say thanks for the advice earlier, what happened to your two friends?"

What do you do?

I look at them with my saddest eyes.
"Kogan and I encountered the Giant Spider together. We fought it, but it was too big, too strong, and we got stuck in its webbing. Kogan fought like an elephant (I'd say bear but elephants probably impress dwarves more)! He told me to get away with the silk, and that he'd cover my exit, or all would be in vain. He died an honorable warrior's death, to save his friend from being possessed..."

With these words I bid them farewell, and try to find that leaking hatch again.

You tell the dwarves of Kogan's heroic sacrifice to save you from the giant cave spider. They seem a little sad, but then they wander into the tunnels to collect his socks, as is the dwarven way.

You retrace your steps and manage your way back to the chamber with the leaky hatch.



What do you do?

Awww.
I shall name them arson and manslaughter.

Kuchi kuchi koo.

You name your adopted Fairy children Arson and Manslaughter. They fall asleep in your inventory. you should find food for them soon.

Siquo, crawl through the hole.

What do fairies eat?

[JoshuaFH]

Siquo, crawl through the hole.

What do fairies eat?

They'll find out...

[Emperor_Jonathan]

"My friends? Well. One left and went back to Rodel, I do not know what happened to him. The other one and I traveled down the river towards Baurville, however he get stranded from a leak in our boat. We met some fairies and then some gigantic monster attacked we ran north but we got separated. I know not what happened to him either. What are you going to do now? Leave?"

[NUKE9.13]

Fairies eat moonbeams and happiness...
Actually they probably drink human blood.
I'm 75% sure that they are dangerous to me.

I will be on the lookout for... stuff. Anything. Bodies, monsters, mysterious evil houses, you name it.
EDIT: I will also try to make little weapons for the fairies from the safety pin.

[Siquo]

Actually I'm inclined to open the hatch.

Open it. If unable, break it. wait for the water, then climb out.

[NUKE9.13]

Actually I'm inclined to open the hatch.

Open it. If unable, break it. wait for the water, then climb out.

Take a 5 pebbles.
Turn one pebble into a mechanics workshop.
Turn three into mechanisms.
Build a lever, and link it to the hatch.
Then build a wall between you and the hatch (with the lever on the non-hatch side)
Pull the lever!
(optional) Laugh evilly.
