Uh - depending on how this is culturally expected to go, either book it, or deploy Lil Balboa to defend you.

Huh, poison element turtle? Very dangerous, get away from it. I don't see how you could use such a thing in your party anyway without getting sick.

If it chases you then you deploy your turtle to fight!

It must be very hungry for it to feel this upset. Deploy any apple slices you have left after catching Li'l Balboa.

Watch out, this might be a Thespian Tortoise. A tortoise that can act the part of anything or anyone it encounters!

Oh my.

Proposition her!
Hold her hand, stare into her eyes and ask.
"Will you... be my rival?"

Oh, it's Alia! You know her, don't you? If you don't, then a hasty apology is in order, followed by an explanation. Maybe she can help you catch the angry TURT.

You’re torn between apologizing, introducing yourself, and running away as fast as you can. You start speaking faster than you can think, launching into a panicked explanation about the turtle in the log, and the odd smelling smoke, and how you’re so scared, and—

“Dude, calm down,” she interrupts. “Sounds like you ran into a NIGHT TURTLE—they’re freaky, but they’re not exactly persistent. It’ll give up chasing you pretty soon, just keep your voice down and it won’t come looking for us. Alright?”

No. 1089586 ID: 184595

She's not angry; that's good, you can relax. Maybe the NIGHT TURT is a bit above our level, but we're dreaming big. Alia seems to know about these TURTS, so ask her how to get one in your shell.

Aw.
She's not a jerk.
That's a shame.
She looked like prime rivalfu material too.

Do you think she'll let us pick her name?
No...
Probably not.
Sigh.

Better listen carefuly and quieten down.
She might have info to share.

Yeah, kinda miss the Turtle quest red/blue/yellow and Turtle quest Gold/Silver/Crystal version days when the rival was a jerk. But her being a friendo is nice. Might could even be a travel companion!

Plus, who's to say we might actually meet a jerk rival later down the road?

You take a deep breath. While you try to calm down, the girl introduces herself as Alia.

You ask Alia about NIGHT TURTLES.

“I’d stay away from NIGHT TURTLES if I were you,” she says. “That smoke they give off can knock you out cold if you breathe too much of it in. If you’re determined to fight one, some shopkeepers sell masks that can help you filter out the fumes, but I wouldn’t recommend it. I don’t think they’re even trainable—they’re just too NASTY. What were you doing messing with one in the first place?”
>>
No. 1089866 ID: c5529d

you saw smoke coming out from the top of the log, and decided to investigate the side of the log to see what was inside.

Now that I think about it, it seemed to be giving off smoke before you looked in and disturbed it. I wonder if it was agitated by something else that caused it to emit smoke before you looked in

You saw the smoke and thought it was some kind of fire turtle or something.

Okay.
We can tell her a convincing lie about our burning curiosity about turts that momentarily overwhelmed our sense of self preservation, so burning is the passion to be a turt master within us.
Or
Tell the truth that were hoping whatever was in there would let us share its lair, for the night is cold and scary. also we secretly hoped it would let us cuddle it.

No. 1089888 ID: 5ebd37

you were looking for a place to spend the night and wondered what was making the smoke.

No. 1089976 ID: 184595

The truth is that we thought it might be a strong TURT that we were hoping to add to our team. She can see how that turned out. Thank her for the advice, and ask her what she's doing in the forest at night.

You tell Alia that you’re looking to catch a powerful TURT for your team, and that you thought the smoke may lead you to one. She rolls her eyes, but says nothing.
You also confide in her that you were considering using the log as shelter for the night.

You shake your head. She sighs, then falls silent for a moment, seeming deep in thought.

“Well you really shouldn’t be out here in the first place,” she says, “but if you’re determined to stay the night… I’ll be here all weekend doing some foraging, and I’ve got a tent set up about a half a mile away. Help me gather some of the stuff on my list, and you can stay with me for the night—but ONLY if you pull your weight. Deal?”

Well its not like you're doing anything else, so that would be great.
Try to learn what's good to forage for yourself.

Yes, accept!

A TURT MASTER doesn't do it alone, and you need the help. keep your eyes open while you forage; especially with the help of a knowledgeable friend, you could stand to learn much more about the TURTS that dwell here.

“The BARK FUNGUS is the main thing I need. It’s also the hardest to find, since it doesn’t grow in large chunks. You can leave that stuff to me, though. You just focus on the rest of the stuff on the list.
You can find BLOOMS just about everywhere.
I marked a good spot to find MUSHROOMS on your MAP—but there are a few poison TURTS that live in that area too, so be careful.
BERRIES grow near the river bed."

Alia stresses that she needs to finish the recipe she’s working on tomorrow morning, so she’d like to have all the ingredients ready tonight. She’s marked her CAMP on the MAP she gave you. You can go there whenever you want to rest for the night, even if you don’t have everything on the list—but the more you do have, the happier she’ll be.
Are you ready to begin foraging? Or do you have questions for Alia before you leave?

Besides night and poison turts, any other turtle threats we should be aware of?

Also

Wanna see our Rock Turt? Any tips on how our rock turt can help out on the scavenger hunt?

Heading to the mushroom patch, then going north along the river should let you get all the ingredients and end on the campsite.

Is rock strong against poison?

Ask
What shes making?
Will she make sure lil balboa gets a good loving home if i die out there?
Does she have a cool turt of her own?

Then boldly head out into the dark.
Dont let anyone see your fear.
Except lil balboa.
He knows your heart anyway.

Head for the river.
Maybe the poison turts will be asleep the later you leave it.

No. 1090418 ID: 7cbed7

I think ROCK doesn't resits poison outright, but some ROCK TURTS with the TIGHT SHELL are immune to getting poisoned. That's what my friend told me, anyway, and I have no clue if that applies to Li'l Balboa.

We've seen some of the mushrooms before, I think, so we know those, and don't have to be afraid. But as a first step towards TURT MASTERY, it's probably a good idea to ask how you can work with Li'l Balboa, and make sure that you know how to train our new TURT without courting undue danger.

You tell her about Li’l Balboa and ask if she’d like to meet him. She pauses for a second, as if considering your offer, but then shakes her head. She doesn’t have time for a TURT cuddle sesh right now; maybe later, when she’s finished with her recipe, she’ll be up to it. She promises she’ll take good care of Li’l Balboa in case anything happens to you, though.

You ask Alia if there are any threats you should be aware of other than the NIGHT TURT and the poison TURTS near the MUSHROOMS.

“NIGHT TURTS and those POISON TURTS are nocturnal, so they’re the main ones you have to worry about right now," Alia says. "There are other dangerous TURTS in the forest, but most of them should be asleep by now. Just try your best not to wake up anything tougher than that ROCK TURT you’ve got, and you should be fine.”
