Dear mom, hello mother, Hey mom, no fuck why is this so hard Dear mom,

Happy birthday! You know, if you'd be here, you'd be 26 again? We're on a 24 month cycle out here.
Dad is doing well. His work with the provisional government has netted us a nice place closer to where he works. It's still 3 hours from here to there though. At least it's not 4 anymore, right? Bright side of things like you always said.
I'm doing fine. I'm about to start my Transitory semester. Wait. Right, that's something we only have up here. So yeah, because of the 24 month cycle, the campus has this extra semester in summer to prep us for the change in setting and difficulty between Entrance year and Freshman year. I dunno what change is setting means, it's still the same campus, but that's what it says in the handbook. I'll write again when I have time, but things are gonna get busy.
I miss you mom. Happy birthday again.

Okay so Pikke's dextrous and all, but stamina? No Marnari can beat a human. Pikke's tried. She really tried this time on the Power Sled. But-

"Hey Pikke, you lost your air tube. It's not GC if you aren't using your filter!"

"Haaaah....FFFffaaa-HAAAK...FAAAAAK....YU! DRUuuu...aaaaayk...Gaaaah..."

So now it looks like we're tied. But that means we're gonna need a tie breaker. So which one do you guys think we should do? Quick, while Pikke's brain is starved of air.

I don't think there's a reason to play any mind games with this person. Let's keep it simple and straightforward. You and your friend were injured, and you think the squirrel might have some information that could help. Was she in here recently? We last saw her heading into the library around...

I think it was just before we met Swiss Cheese. Does he remember when that was? He's with us now, you could ask him.

Alright, let’s see our notes now.

1. Maeve Greer is destined to die if she continues her ways.
→ 2. Therefore Jason breaks up with her in an attempt to set her straight, but it would further her addiction without him.
→ 3. Therefore Jason tries to understand her past, but confronting her folks may not change her future
→ 4. Therefore ???
→ 5. Jason sees Maeve in a timeline where she’s clean. He’s content that somewhere in the multi-verse there’s a Maeve who’s happy and safe.

Things are becoming clearer, and I could clean up that remaining step to refer to a newfound purpose Maeve could discover. Like the segment of learning to play guitar earlier.

Hrmm...

For the first time in my career my fingers start to hurt. I’m almost... happy about that. I should take a little break. It’s already been an hour of writing.

No. 1132145 ID: 3783d5

A thought occurs - if your job is to get the tennant to be spooked enough to leave (is it that specific or is your goal more vague?), then he might end up breaking his contract doing so and forefeit his life.

That would mean his contract is scaring him into staying / you and the manager have conflicting goals. Manager either wants tennants to stay for cash, or he wants tennants to die or other bad stuff by voiding their contract.

So what would you haunting someone away do for his tennant contract? Is our successfull haunting gonna kill someone indirectly?

>Ah. Well try not to panic. Its a lot to take in, but we need you to stand down right now. Whatever happened was long before our time.
It looks like the spirit has already calmed down: the creature is free, and neither of the ants seems possessed. Plus, your attempts to make something legible from the combined picture have served as a nice crash course. Now it has become way easier for you to see; you can even decide whose perspective you want to look from.

>Yes, I'm sorry. You're already dead. Your town was attacked a long time ago, I think. Our wielder came here to investigate this house because it's now a place of power. Likely the power is you.
>If you stop fighting us... well, I can't promise revenge since I have no way of knowing if the people who attacked your town are still alive. I'm also not sure if we can promise much regarding the actions of our wielder. I am fairly sure that we can find out what happened here, and maybe there are survivors. Maybe we can get you in touch with them.
— I… Yes, please…

The creature relaxes slightly after seeing the rest of its group free of the ghost’s control. It stops right before the remains and signals for ants to wait.
— So you've managed to calm the ghost down somehow. As it seems, it’s sentient, and it’s neither an elf nor one of their cultists. I was able to hear your words, but I have no idea what it was answering you: retell what you’ve got from it and ask it more questions so we could understand what it even is. Oh, and tell it I’m going to look at what’s inside that locket.

Roger that. The ghost said that some invaders had burned their lord in his own residence. The townsfolk saw a Venaiyan ship on the horizon at that time, and were hoping to hire mercenaries to fend off the invaders.
Before the ghost interrupted us, we were about to say that yes we can read the note. Can you not read it? Oh, what's your name? What are the names of the ants?

Spirit, can our wielder look inside your locket? Uh, he might not wait for us to relay the answer. Also, can you tell us more about what happened to your town? What was the town's name, who were the invaders, and can you remember the year that this happened? And what's your name?
Oh, there was a pot and a note in a chest buried outside your home, what's that about?

An RPG Quest with dice rolls and mechanics inspired by Pathfinder 1e.

Written by Capitulize

Art by Capitulize & Akwa’tim

This quest has themes of violence, depression, eldritch confoundery, suicide (serious warning on this), fuzzy animal people, harsh language, and risqué topics.

Guys, could you try to not violate the fourth wall so voraciously with real world concepts that don't fit the setting?


>...this thing is pathetic. In a sad way I mean
>...like a stupid sad little idiot.

Harsh judgement. Do you have expectations for animated skeletons? By nature they are already a sad existence, so I don't understand why you would think less of someone in this condition being depressed.

You got good information on the main room and adjacents. It should be enough for Eve and Mina to get down to set a defensible position. Doesn't even need to be the end of your scouting, they could stay somewhere you could run towards if something start chasing you.
That is assuming you don't want to lure skeletons for rock throwing from your friends. I still think doing this would be efficient but would also alert Shi'zen.

How I think this should go:
Inform the girls of what you found, in particular the animated skeleton in the corner. They also need to know about Roderick's body because if Mina freak out it's better that she does so up there than down here. Also inform them about Shi'zen smell (my earlier speculation about her leaving was wrong).
Once they understand the situation you can call them down here for backup in case you need. I think they could have a good sigh of the room and the trapdoor skeleton door if they stay near the left brazier. But of course this is a suggestion so maybe they will have a better plan or prefer the stone throwing idea.
With a fallback position stablished I thing you should take a look at the prison and maybe the room with the smoking reptilian lady.

Honestly the jail room has trap written all over it.
And given the types of fucked up magical traps in this place (let's not forget the SUPER curse you got) I'd say don't even risk LOOKING in there until you have other people with you.

Also since it's been brought up. The harmonica seems to have the symbol of Our Boss(I guess?) on it. I know it's his symbol cause that's the same symbol that appeared when you detected magic on Vax.

Not exactly sure what it implies that two of these eldritch gods seemed to have some form of influence over this area at some point in time but it should definitely be noted.

Early autumn is pleasant in Cedar Ridge. Summer's hottest days are behind you and the shade of the Douglas fir trees that blanket the town keep the underbrush cool.

North of the lake that divides the town are sets of woods. Interrupted only by mud roads and storm drains that rarely see use outside of the rainy season. This grove is only a mile from the town's one high school. Frequented by teens and alcoholics alike for bonfire parties that leaves the smell of ash in the air. This far east into Oregon the breeze is warm and sluggish, trapped in by mountain ranges.

From where you stand you can hear when the occasional truck passes through Cedar Ridge's main road. Barely. It helps you keep your facing when you're unsure which way is home.

You are in the north in the outskirts of town.

>The blue and red readings are probably Miller and Mary.

Sam would tend to agree.

>That symbol to the north, is it related to the feather?
>and are we sensing, a house?

Sam recognises this symbol from a few places before. She does not recognise it as meaning anything in particular. She vaguely remembers it as appearing under or in what may have been a drawing of a well, next to a skull and crossbones.

It’s more like a wide arrow containing the symbol than a house. But Sam supposed she could be sensing a sort of ‘abode’ of whatever is meant by the five pointed symbol, in an abstract sense.

>Are they draining Will? Or are they fueling the containment?

Sam doesn’t know for sure, but she has heard tales of certain techniques and rituals used by particularly cunning mystics to hold dungeon doors closed with the prisoner’s very own force of Will. If these stories are true, then it wouldn’t be the most outlandish thing to expand such a concept to a machine.

Sam and the group return to Miller and Mary. Mary regards them with an expression halfway between a grimace and a grin.

MARY: “Done.. already?”

SIMONE: “Awh, sorry Mary. Not yet.”

UBERTO: ”We just wanted to know if there was anything else you could tell us about Hella.”

MARY: “She replaced.. Quartermaster, Koroviev. After WOLAND pulled out of the Well. To defend assets here.”

MILLER: “I have heard that she is capable of a great many things.”

MARY: “Hah. Well, I think.. She’s a one- trick pony. Just to put on a show to. Scare away intruders. Her real power… was sent in a letter. Watch for that dark power, don’t get burnt. And you’re golden.”

MILLER: “But look at what she’s done to you! Clearly, her one trick is effective.”

MARY: “Hmmph.”

If it's always exactly the same spot, could we put a trap in that spot? Like, a snare trap? We've got trees around, so if we have access to rope or vine we could put tension on a branch to snap back when she teleports in and snag her.

>You should ask Malcolm how to tell the difference between wine stains and something else.
Oh you’re sure you know what kind of stains will be on those clothes without Malcolm’s help.
>veggies, cheap
You head over to the farmer Marten’s stall.

Marten: “Bit late today Eugene. Almost sold out of your regular purchases here.”

You sigh in relief, asking if he’s saved any broccoli or spinach for you. His nose twitches with disgust.

Marten: “Whole square’s been hounding me for it. The appeal of such foul greens is beyond me. Rather a nice farm chicken or a wild jay myself. Surely there’s more you feed on than this Eugene?”

You explain that every species has different needs to sustain themselves, but no. Another farm sources the more meaty meals for dinner. The Hatchet’s farm is a bit more specialized- Oh…seems from that scowl you’ve offended Marten.

Marten: “You lubber-hammering striped stain! After all the Bushlows do to provide for you. To have such gall as to turn your nose in disgust at us.”

Spinach and corn seem reasonable. You can shuckle the corn after sundown if need be, or just roast it. The peach is pricy but you might be able to make peach-scented soap, or make her majestys clothes smell peachy.

Possibly she has some kind of implant- the thumb might be a logical place for identification-tech. That, or Paprika's treatment is transferable. Probably best to keep quiet about it for now.

Is this the manner of politics Cricket is used to? She makes it sound so dire.

Natalina can't imagine that Cricket intends to harm Malia, and a common background seems a solid basis for establishing a new diplomatic channel after the arkus herself made a mess of directly approaching the princess. (Even the idea of attempted 'cide of one's own family feels foreign to Natalina, but well, she knows very well that not everyone's situation is the same). She signs her assent.

Apparently assisting in first aid improved on her poor first impression for Malia to have asked her in the first place. Although the arkus isn't sure how the exile knew they shared that language- an assumption based on her communication with the

The "entertainment console" is Turing-complete, outputs directly to control the food printer as well as some life-support functions, and Zalkezia apparently knows its syntax well enough to attempt arbitrary code execution - or at least has a few useful formulas memorized, given how quickly she convinced it to produce medical supplies.

Food printer seems to have some safeguards - there's a long list of things it'll refuse to synthesize and extrude, among which Reiko spots dimethylmercury as well as the active ingredients of cholera and botulinum - but if it gets a request for something it's physically unable to produce (including living cells, solid metal, explosives, or anything at all that's not roughly the size and shape of a hockey puck), that simply gets passed on to the ship's main molecular loom without so much as an "are you sure?"
Said molecular loom is currently out of commission, but there's no need to leave such a security hole wide open. New standing order means the ship won't fabricate anything until Reiko has either signed off on it, or been out of contact for a hundred hours.

Ah, interesting! The ceiling controls more than just the life support settings; complex images can be stored as codes or ciphers, which it can unpack and display. Zalkezia doesn't seem to have seen this before- which raises the question of who (or when) that pattern was stored in those memory-ant like bottles. (Given the princess' understandable lack of trust, probably not worth spending limited goodwill on asking now, though).

>cryptic diagram vaguely similar to the Pioneer plaque. Format of the labels on certain oddly-positioned dots within that diagram has a striking resemblance to certain symbols the University of Doors was using to refer to the "ballast nodes" of Banded Mesa's inaccessible innermost ring.
What does Natalina make of that? Training in history, perception, and/or transdimensional navigation all seem like they could be relevant. Applying Understanding and one level of Intellect Effort. Might also benefit from a modification if any of the NPCs have relevant insight and are willing to help. Also willing to use a book if any are applicable (the autobiography has some connection to cloud giants, or astronomy might be relevant if there's coordinates for the nightcraft). Taking half an hour to improve relations examining a clue seems worth it and relatively safe- and probably buys plenty of time for Cricket and Malia.

>rolled 9
Conveniently, that spills out from subsequent conversation among the princess's followers, without Nat needing to explicitly ask. There's another native sapient species in Branu's Kiss, known as the "saunukar." They're somewhat humanoid - Devyn is said to resemble one - and on much friendlier terms with the humans in general and Zalkezia in particular, presenting her with gifts (including that set of bottles, in this case) as well as a short traditional poem (more like a treasure map, including mention of the Grinder of Infinities, with just enough formal structure to make it easier to remember) whenever she re-appears.
>trained in history
Based on the few fragments you've picked up of each, sounds like Dramath and Saunukar religious traditions might possibly be schisms from a common source, or the result of indoctrination by long-vanished agents of opposing factions in some larger conflict.

Despite being broadly regarded as friendly, or at least less threatening, apparently saunukar hunt, kill, and eat humans on an almost routine basis, while dramath approximately never do? Temptation to pry with follow-up questions is fierce.

Reiko does some research, starting with the bottle itself; there are too many fundamental acts of arrogance imposed upon the cosmos to get an accurate reading based on physics extrapolation, but that form of 'liquid map' isn't exactly common. Even the bottle's shape itself seems off, so its style might be from an earlier time period. The datasphere should have some information on when the bottles were popular and among who, and from there Reiko can download a few star maps during those time periods and see which ones almost line up with the map.

So, she has Silksong-style regeneration/wound binding. Good to know!

Her arms also look ridiculously thin/fragile, a thin as strands of silk! Either they're EXTREMLY durable and/or flexible to prevent them snapping like twigs, or I'm overthinking it / it's just the artistic depiction.

On the topic of Iris being hungry, Iris is chewing off her arm-blades. Are those made of weak-but-sharp silk/bone/chitin, or is Iris's bite able to chew through rock/steel?

Probably tell her that before it chews the rest of her armblades ot uselessness.

Ask her if your 'respawn' method (i.e. reforming from a puddle of goo/dissolving into one on death) sounds familiar - maybe her 'Hive' has a similar thing? And might help explain your (assumed) immunity.

She might not be directly responsible in any case. Could be another of her kind/species out there who bled their red liquid in the wrong place, or the red liquid affects her differently than the black hive (i.e. it's a third party of its own).

Is the red liquid is 'normal' for her? Is that her 'normal' blood or is it unusual for her too?

Also, ask her (delicately) about the eye on her forehead / Iris's head. Is it controlled / functional or sort of has a mind of its own, like a parasite or symbiote?

She confessed! It's so cute how she's slowly working up the courage to give herself to us! And it looks like Hax reminds her of someone; that should be an interesting topic of conversation while we're playing with our new toy.

Here's an idea, Hax. While you're making Ahn unwittingly strip for us, move your own avatar like you're her mirror image. Rub your hands over yourself and see if she can figure out what we're doing to her before we're finished.

Since we all know where this is going, let's make it more exciting by inserting a special "gift" into her mind that will activate when she has an orgasm. And when we tell her about it, don't say what it does. If she wants to get out of it, all she has to do is not cum. That shouldn't be too hard for her, right?

Now, what should we put in her gift? I'm thinking that every orgasm saves a "snapshot" of her mental state. The pleasure, her sensory input, her recent thoughts and memories, her positive emotions, any negative emotions that enhance the pleasure (like that erotic fear she's feeling right now), all preserved forever in a memory that she'll perfectly recall whenever her mind wanders that way.

If you're worried about Ahn's consent, we could install a mental "Escape" key that she can activate at will to undo any changes or controls we put in her mind. That will make sure she's as safe as she can be and won't have the potential risk of a simple verbal agreement.

Unless... you want her to be dependent on us for mercy. We could instead give her a switch that only sends us a signal, and leaves the act of freeing her up to us.

tell her the tour sounds lovely and ask her to lead the way.

Just remember to ask a lot of questions so she has to focus on you just as much as the tour and to keep your subtle manipulations going on her whenever she looks your way or talks to you. Once the manipulations start getting her noticeably aroused start acting like you're getting more comfortable around her and become a little more clingy. As in moments when you can't think what to talk about walk close enough for your shoulders to touch or even try and hold her hand if you think she wouldn't mind. If she tells a joke or a happy story give her a quick hug when expressing your own joy. And every time the two of you touch make the subtle pleasure rise slightly for when your touch last longer then a moment or in instances where the contact is brief give her a sharp and large amount of pleasure but make it so quick it could easily be dismissed as a trick of her mind.

Other than that go through the tour and show genuine interest in both what she's talking about and in her, be friendly and kind and show you're starting to open up to her yourself and trust her more, and never leave her side to keep the manipulations up even if she tries to distance herself from you to make it seem like she is getting hella worked up around you.

Oh and on a side note, if she ever makes any remarks or jokes about dating, hanging out, or just being around you give a small jolt of pleasure to her only slightly more noticeable then what you're doing to her normally to "encourage" these thoughts and a much sharper and stronger jolt if she ever mentions anything about sex or making out to you, while you yourself will always take such questions or remarks as her just being friendly and opening up to you to keep up the air of innocents you're trying to build up.
