Or beak.”[/color] Kamek complained to V. He ignored his own desire to blast the feathered pest and paid more attention to what he was saying in-between the insults. [color=DeepSkyBlue]”Demons you say, bound to the life of a master hmm. Fascinating. Quite the effective leash that. That certainly solves one of the problems you always get with recruiting external help.”[/color] he said, mostly to himself as he mulled the possibilities over and was left grinning. [color=DeepSkyBlue]”Thank you, you de-evolved dinosaur, you’ve given me quite a few ideas and things to look into.”[/color] he told the rude bird. After handing over the position of his minigun to ratchet [color=DeepSkyBlue]”You can keep it. It was doing a number on my spine anyway”[/color] and his summoned Dry Bones to Blazermate [color=DeepSkyBlue]”You’ll find them far sturdier than these meat puppets I assure you”[/color] and collecting some minion sprites, including the one he had got into melee combat, in the empty exp vile he was ready to head out. [color=DeepSkyBlue]”While I’m sure you'd love for me to stay”[/color] Kamek addressed the assembly generally [color=DeepSkyBlue]”Now that V has been found this is as far as I go here. I have a Master and free dinner to get back in the Land of adventure after all. So unless there's anything anyone needs I’ll be off”[/color] [hr] [color=SpringGreen]”Is it Grass?”[/color] [color=FD0000]”Yeah. Good guess. Your turn.”[/color] [color=SpringGreen]”Ok! Hmmmm. I spy with my little eye something beginning… With… oh! oh! K! Definitely K”[/color] [color=FD0000]”Chicken?”[/color] Bowser tried, referring to the Chocobos running around the fields close to town [color=SpringGreen]”Nope”[/color] [color=FD0000]”Car?”[/color] he asked as they got closer to their parked vehicles. [color=SpringGreen]”Nope”[/color] [color=FD0000]”hmmm”[/color] Bowser hummed thoughtful while peering off into the distance, claws idly scratching his jaw as he tried to find the elusive K word. [color=DeepSkyBlue]”Greetings sire. I see the hunt was most successful.”[/color] said the Magikoopa who the king had overlooked while playing I spy with his son. [color=FD0000]”Gah”[/color] Bowser startled before looking down and finding his blue cloaked advisor had wandered out of the town where had been waiting for them to return. [color=FD0000]”Oh. It’s you Kamek”[/color] [color=SpringGreen]”Yup. It’s him”[/color] Jr confirmed Bowser’s guess. [color=FD0000]”Oh. Right! Uhh anyway yeah we got plenty of meat. It's goo d stuff to. You handled everything over in the dead zone?”[/color] [color=DeepSkyBlue]”I have. They’ve got a ways to go it seems. They need to face two more minibosses before the guardian aparently, but I got them safely to V and so I took my leave in-order to return to your side. I also learned about the existence of powerful evil creatures called Demons that can be bound to the life of a person. Something to look into once I have the time and resources. I asked around before you arrived but didn't learn much other than that the adventurers who have heard of them consider them very dangerous”[/color] Kamek explained, the supposed danger of the monsters seeming of little concern to him. [color=SpringGreen]”Got a scheme brewing?”[/color] Jr asked [color=DeepSkyBlue]”The start of one certainly. I’ll let you know when I have more, but for now tell me about how things have been since we split ways”[/color] [color=SpringGreen]”Oh oh, I we hired this hunter lady with a bird and I hunted things with her crossbow!”[/color] Jr began to explain. The trio continued catching up with each other’s adventures as they got on with turning in their quests, emerging from the blacksmith with pocket fulls of rupees (though not nearly as many as Tora and Poppie) and the 3 loot boxes and promises of dinner from Mina’s restaurant. Afterwards they got together with the rest of the squad at the guild hall to register their successes. Everyone looked to have gotten back in one piece and the Cowboy had even managed to acquire new un-Galeemed party member from somewhere. The King was pleased that they hadn’t gotten captured or killed when left to their own devices, which was an unfortunate habit his regular army had. Once inside the cubes where deposited on a table in the care of jr. [color=SpringGreen]”uuuuurgh.”[/color] Jr groaned after several failed attempts at bonking one of the crystalline rupees against the box and receiving no response. The cubes were spared from more violent methods of opening by the arrival of Michael who generously popped open the loot boxes for them with a few dollars from his wallet. [color=SpringGreen]”Oh nice! But why does only this fake paper money work anyway?”[/color] Jr asked as he waited for the boxes to open. Bowser and Kamek meanwhile handled the Guild business. The wizard had had time to sign himself onto the completion of their two quests but it seemed as though the original two quests per member had been put aside. Bowser was sure this was because their handling of every quest in just an afternoon had done more than enough to prove that his army was the best in the business. Then they got the lowdown on the F class quest from the Guild Master. [color=FD0000]”GAH, BUT WE JUST CAME FROM OVER THERE.”[/color] Bowser grumbled when finding out where the beast was before adding [color=FD0000]”BUT I GUESS WE COULD LOOK INTO THE PIG’S GREEN RAIDER PROBLEM ON THE WAY FOR MORE CASH?”[/color] [color=DeepSkyBlue]”What’s this sire?”[/color] [color=FD0000]”Pig people. Stuck up snobs with tiny houses. Getting attacked by small green people. We could go blow up their problem as a warmup, then head for the town, get some supplies and finally go out into these steppes where they said something big was. Probably talking about the dino we’re after. Whatever its name was.”[/color] [color=DeepSkyBlue]”The Saurian.”[/color] [color=FD0000]”Yeah that.[/color] [color=FD0000]”Doesn’t really matter right now anyway because the new guy’s got the right idea. Foods ready and I am starving.”[/color] Bowser said, despite being one of the few people in the building who had had lunch. [color=FD0000]”Also it being a dinosaur is only a guess.”[/color] Kamek added, before turning to the Guild Master and asking [color=FD0000]”Now that we’re properly certified for taking on this quest, what can you tell us about this ’Mr. F’ as you called him?”[/color]
