My name is Ken Suraisu. I am a super cool wandering ronin samurai who has traveled many days and nights to reach the temple that stands before me. The Temple of Waru. I have come to this place on a quest of revenge against a man who has committed an unforgivable sin against me and my family.. Master Kitsokuyaku, the head of this temple. He resides within, guarded by his famed Nine Generals who are said to be unbeatable. My resolve set, my quest known, and my fundoshi secure, I stands before the gates of the temple, which are said to be impenetrable.

What course of action should I take first? I innocently wonder to myself, definitely not trying to provide a prompt at all or anything like that.

I look to the ground, to see the result of the epic battle.

"Oooooohhh..... OOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHH........" The tanuki moans.

"MMMMMYYYYYY LEEEEEGGGGGGG! THE PAAAAAAAAAIIIN! THE PAIN IS UNBEEAAARAAABLLLEEEEE!!!" He whines, grasping his pierced limb as tears run down his furry face. I begin to feel a little bad.
"Did.. DID YOU REALLY HAVE TO GO AND DO THAAAT?! I WAS JUST MESSIN' WITH YOU, MAN! JEEEEEEEEEEEZZZZ.. THE PAAAAAAIIiiiinnnn...."

I glance around the room, immediately noticing a new ladder that seemingly appeared after defeating the tanuki. Perhaps he was concealing it. I also see that the Magical Medicine was released onto the ground from the pot. I appears to be some sort of herb. The tanuki writhes in pain..

I think you'd better find out where this tanuki's loyalties lie before deciding to help him or not. You're here for revenge, right? If it stands in the way of your revenge, should you not treat it like an enemy?

>Do the morally correct thing.

I retrieve my kunai and proceed to give the tanuki the all healing herb. He looks at me, surprised. "But.. But I was trying to stop you.." He says.

"A true samurai knows when to help.. tanukis. I guess. The answer is sometimes. Maybe." I say wisely. "Also, taking on a warrior form and not expecting battle is a bad idea. Rascally Tanuki-kun."

I help him to his feet.. er, paws... hands? And he begins to speak. "Be warned, samurai. Though you have defeated me, ahead of you lies eight more generals, each mightier than the last. If you wish to reach Master Kitsokuyaku, you must defeat them all. And like.. I mean.. Like they're all my friends so if you could not like.. kill them, that would be great. Just something to think about."

He hands me something. A coin. "I want you to have this. It's a Torikku Coin. Trademarked. It will allow you to call for my help one time in any of your future battles. Use it wisely, for you face legendary trials." Torikku Coin added to inventory. One space remaining.

The tanuki's warning fresh in my mind, I proceed up the ladder. I find myself in a darkened room, surrounded by... massive vegetables..? I take a few steps before a shrill voice rings out from the darkness.. "I see you've defeated Torikku. A shame I'm sure.. I'm sure you're feeling confident.. But I have a question for you.. Do you like vegetables, samurai?"

Ignore him, but be ready for cooking-themed attacks! Carrot arrows, boiling oil, moving trees, whatever!

CHOP IT ALL, SALT THE POTATO.

But yeah, try not to kill any of the generals you face. These guys have not disgraced you, just Kitsokuyaku, and it's likely that they will surrender if defeated.

I shout into the darkness, stating my stance on a proper diet and the fact that vegetables are popular in Japan as it is. I also prepare my sword for defense...

"WELL HOW ABOUT THESE VEGETABLES!! 'ICE' TO MEET YOU, SAMURAI!!" Shout the same shrill voice as my enemy reveals himself in a surprise attack, unleashing a volley of carrots from his palm. He also says what I'm pretty sure is a pun, but it's oddly not vegetable related.

But while I was parrying, it seems Yasai prepared a follow up attack and is coming down towards me with a large eggplant-club. "LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE 'TROUT' OF LUCK, SAMURAI!!" He yells, yet another not vegetable related pun at me. He's too close for me to counter or dodge! At this rate I'll be struck! If only I could think of some way to distract him.. Maybe something I could say..

You, you do know that's not a vegetable pun, right? You're a veggie based opponent, not a cold based one.

>LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE 'TROUT' OF LUCK, SAMURAI!!" He yells, yet another not vegetable related pun at me.
Wow, he's terrible at this. Best distraction would be to point out how terrible he is at this. What kind of villain can't stick to a theme?

We'll have to overpower him with proper puns.

I don't carrot for your lack of style.
You've left me rather cress fallen.
I don't relish listening to this for much longer.
How long dill you produce a proper pun.
You're making my brain leek.
I will squash you.

>you prefer your vegetables... sliced
This one is the finisher, obviously.

Try and not kill the guy, though. Veggie-warrior is kind of harmless, and the tankuni did as us to spare his friends, if we could.

Vegetable-themed general starts making puns about ice and fish...!

He's talking about a recipe!

Keep dodging his attacks, listen to his puns, and then answer with the correct recipe related to those ingredients and/or cooking methods declared in the puns! It might be the true test!

Stepping through the chamber I look around for the usual mysterious surroundings and- O.. Oh. I am taken aback at the large beefy wolfman in front of me. He looks at me with about the same amount of surprise.

"ARREAH.. ARREH YEHH ANNEH GENRAH?" He.. says. In the best way a fellow with a canine mouth can. I believe from the tone, he was asking a question, and appears to be awaiting an answer but.. I'm not entirely sure what he said..

"Are you a general?"

I guess this guy is climbing the temple, just as you are. Tell him about the other generals, and ask how many generals he has defeated. Then either join up or go your separate ways.

Nope.

This guy might pick fights with other generals, hence the question. Otherwise, if you lie and he finds out later, he might get angry - really angry.

Just ask if he's a general, or if he has business with one of the other madmen in this twisted slapstick carnival.

And keep your sword unsheathed, he might be fast either way.

I have a brief internal struggle before coming to a resolution that it would be against my samurai honor to deceive this.. wolf.. fellow.

"No, I am not a general. I am here to see Master Kitsokuyaku."

The room goes silent, the air stagnant with anticipation and the smell of wolfman.

"Uoo reealish. Eeat ee ouw aah ou ight." He steps back, and takes a combative stance. Dammit. This guy looks tough.. yet.. he appears to be sniffing feverishly. In fact, he's been doing so since we first met, now that I think of it. Perhaps he smells something on me? But what..
