Continue the westward march! Shout challanges at the darkness in the most manly manner. [\b]
You move another six spaces west, shouting taunts and dares all the way. Soon, an imp appears at the very edge of your light, and you see a sword prototyped imp heading your way from the south.
RL: Go help the snake, you can always just go left later.
You follow the snake, who leads you to a clearing. Well, sort of a clearing. It's filled with stumps, mostly, so not very clear, and there are a few trees standing there. But they're obviously dead, withered like raisins, all the leaves dead and gone. Even the massive snakes that hang from the branches of trees throughout your land lay on the ground, decomposing in the humid air.
It's horrible.
A larger version of the snake who brought you here slithers toward you, followed by a sweaty looking prospitian. You notice that a few stumps have been uprooted, allowing the land to be seeded once again.
Elder snake: Dear Lady, could you assist my family in our time of need? Without the protection of these poor, ruined trees, our dens will be like ovens. We need a new home.
>AL: Proceed.You burst through your gate, and into RL's house, demolishing a wall in short order. You seem to be alright, but it seems RL is nowhere to be found! You really do need an on-the-go pestering solution, but you'll have to consider it at another time. For now, you start blasting toward the second gate. RL's probably through there.
>RA: Flip the fuck out. NO NO NO! How could it happen again! No matter what way you try, you either wind up getting ignored, or Danielle spends so much time interrogating you it's too late! You've tried GK and DB, and if they can't help, what hope was there for any of the others? Even in the few iterations with that Bear guy with the fascination with guns and ridiculously charismatic attitude couldn't do anything to stop it!
You waste more than 4 minutes making a scene and putting a couple fist holes in your wall.
