Great is typically a term I only use in conjunction with someone whose
deeds amount to more than "dropped in from ceiling", but you've piqued
my interest so I'll refrain from smashing you in the face right now
(tempting though it may be to introduce that abnormally wide head to
the business end of my over-sized novelty sword)
Um, I don't want to offend you or seem like an ingrate or anything, but I don't think I'm a goblin or a faerie. I have been wrong before, though.
Are you some kind of Royalty, perhaps some sort of ruler of goblins and
faeries? I'm sorry, I must have drifted off during the previous three
sentences you said and need a bit of a recap
Fool? Fool! I've killed before for less, just ask all those ants and
shargas and dogs that have met their end at my hands. Well, at least
one hand, the other may or may not have been in my pants at the time.
It differs from situation to situation, really.
Where in the world of body thieving ant wranglers do you think you're
going? I thought we were talking here. No, sure, that's cool, just take
off, real impressive their pal. More like the king of being a dick
Great, not only are you a conversational escape artist, you're a
close-talker. Shouldn't you be escorting people around the museum?
And off he goes again. ADD, I fucking swear. I yearn to end you
Sure I've seen entire cities sunk into the earth by giant animated
suits of armor, gods crushed into orbs and had my soul plucked from my
body, but what really surprises me is the incredible magic trickery of
teleporting into the exact same location. Handy and impressive!
Trading information and secrets for loot is an exciting prospect.
Seeing as this entire economy seems to be based around rocks, daggers,
roots and human skulls, I hope his expectations are low.
And just like that he's off, Raiden-style. Let's see what else I can find around here
Jesus christ, a honest to god sewer serpent. I haven't seen one since
the town wiseman told me there was a tamed one that lived in his pants
and that loved to kiss
I knew that kising line was bullshit, I fucking new it. This thing tastes like ass!
A quick slash with a sword doesn't takes this guy down unlike the one
that lived in the town wiesman's pants. Although this one is
considerably larger, so I guess it makes sense
Is that you King Kawooha? I guess you aren't quite as powerful as you
thought, what with the not mastering the "appear a second time" spell.
I can hear you, so that's half way there. The easy half, just like the
knowing
Holy crap it looks like a massive pile of sharga splooge. I don't know
whether to fight it or trick a serving wench into thinking it's a
healthy shake
Green blob bleeds green blood. Good to know.
It appears as though the top half of this things....I'll go with
head.....is missing, and yet it fights on. Game glitch, or indication
of the goo's scrapping prowess?
I smack it around for awhile until all of the fight has been knocked out of it and it just lays back and accepts it
Here's that fancy non-carcinogenic globe in action again, revealing
what we in the Stonekeep travelling business call "a ghost wall" ie a
wall that was murdered and now roams the world of the living searching
to rights the wrongs. Or it's a wall that is less a wall and more a
fake wall that you can walk right through, like an old-timey hologram
Crap, another level of just Ruins. But we're getting close to something epic, I can feel it in my bones. Well, bone at least.
Shits, I left my google maporb on the floor and now this tiny army of
shargas wants to kill me for littering or invading their territory or
killing their people or some other equally insignificant shit
Not on MY shift, gremlin!
Having successfully struck a minor wounding blow on me, the last
remaining sharga smiles impudently and waits for my counter-attack
And now he's fucking dead. That new sword cuts through these ghoulies
like a hot knife through babar. Time for Sherlock Drake to investigate
that irregular wall-related activity going on in this precise location
Normally if I tried this I'd be knocked flat on my ass and have to look
around quickly to see if there was anyone watching and if there was I'd
pretend like I was doing it on purpose. Lucky for me this is a fancy
fake wall, so I can just breeze through without any hassles like a rich
asshole's kid breezes through life
Sweet. I walked through an incredible fusion of magic and technology
and all that's waiting for me on the other side is more square hallways
and a human skull. Fucks yeah
Polite but firm. This guy must be their leader. I'll kill him last. Or first, depending on when I kill him
A few dead shargas later it's time to hit up the 'ooka for some info.
What's the rumpus, the low-down, the whatwhat, the dealio? Take this
skull with my blessings
Picky asshole won't except a skull as a gift. I've dated women like that before
If you think you're too good for skulls, maybe you shouldn't be hanging out in a pile of ruins in the bottom of a pit.
I give him figures one stone red shiny and motormouth lets fly at a
thousand words a minute. This guy is a wordsmith, a linguistic artist,
a fountain of knowledge and I am awed by what I learn. Seriously?
"watch out, there's danger here in this place filled with enemies?"
Thanks a lot, asshole. You're worse than so-obvious-it-hurts Thera
Damn right, I'd hate to go the rest of the game without anymore pealrs
of wisdom like those! What's next, "hit the enemies with you weapons"?
"Try to kill them without dying yourself"?
Oh hell yeah, The inevitable sewer level! That should get everyone's
lips a quivering and even the most utterly uninterested person
salivating. A videogame with a sewer section, can't you almost taste
it?
No more time to chat with that asshole, there's a sewer somewhere. Maybe these tube snakes will be able to help me out
I wouldn't be much of an adventurer if I couldn't handle two snakes out
once. Elizabeth was just an apple delivery girl and I've seen her take
two snakes, no hands!
Well well well, if it isn't the stuff of nightmares.
