Chapter 9: Everyone sucks at their jobs, Or, Melodrama pt.1



King Walse, you look well. I come with a request. Please, stop amplifying the power of the water crystal!
Ho ho ho... You must be joking. I could never do that! My people live comfortably thanks to the crystal's power.
King Walse, if left as it is, the crystal will shatter!
Hmm... I have heard about the incident with the wind crystal...
However... No evidence proves the same will happen with the water crystal. Furthermore, I am certain that the people will be opposed to ceasing the crystal's ampiflication.
Look, we don't have time to be arguing over this...


Thank you, whatever's making the screen red.


Oh, another meteorite.


That's never a good thing.


Oh sure.


Of course, plot won't happen without us.


That damned elephant?





The tower's full of extra paths for free stuff, like so.


Wyverns drop more potions than previously thought possible.


The Ricard Mages drop Fire Rods, which are clearly fire versions of Frost Rods.


Oh yeah! He's gonna stop that elephant!





Yeah whatever.

BOSS FIGHT: GARULA


Oh shut up Garula.


I'm gonna use the secret power of the Frost Rod.


Use it as an item while equipped, and it casts Blizzaga.


Booya, Motherfucker.


So, yeah, I don't have the rod anymore, but I don't care. Garula pisses me off.


I don't even know what anymore. To this day, I don't know why the water crystal explodes.


...Me? You know who I am?
Lord Galuf... Couldn't protect it... For-Forgive...
Hey-stay with me, man! Please, tell me who I am!
Fire crystal... protect... ngh...


Finally, something that isn't annoying the hell out of me; jobs!


Time Mage, Red Mage, Summoner, Berserker, Sorcerer.

The OP is going to be a mess...


And a shard I can't get.


Oh my! As if there wasn't enough drama in this update!






Is that...

Slydra! You're alive!

Slydra carries the party to safety...



Slydra... You used the last of your strength to save us...
What are you saying? Slydra! You can't die, I won't let you!
Slydra... Thank you...
...Slydra...


Over this black screen Slydra's final cry plays.

Anyway, our only lead is...


Hey-where is "here," anyway? Where'd Karnak Castle go?

Looks like we have a lead and 5 new classes to pursue it with.

NEXT TIME: Karnak! Shopping extravaganza!

The mystery knight would likely have 30 defense, given the stores he's from. Garula literally has too low of attack to damage something with 30 defense. Hence, I am constantly amused by how poorly the knight fares.
