It feels like it's been a lot longer than a few hours. Now that the voices are back, perhaps you can get some guidance.

[ Notebook ]
Solve strange landmark, Ikit's basement, and Buy Ikit's goods are all Completed.

Remaining items on the list are:
Find Nu, Uncover Ring, Queen Atsusa, Melt ice block, Swirly vial for Eden, and Figure out tablets.

You still have no idea where Nu is (or should you call him Epsilon now?), You haven't checked on Queen Atsusa of the fireflowers in a very long time, you don't know how to take care of the ice block problem, you don't have the vial, and you have found three tablets, but don't know where to apply them.

It is granted that you need to get out of the Labyrinth. It seems pretty unnecessary to add.

[ Labyrinth ]

You have been through quite a few rooms after splashing into the water hours ago. Although disgusting, the rooms had been cleared out. Almost the very second the voices came back you start hearing about recovering bodies you've never seen and encouragement to fix the robot lizard you were working on.

Well, the robot seems to have been left there, but the first few rooms seem like they had been cleaned up for later, but as you went on, things went to hell. Whoever was resetting this Labyrinth abandoned it around halfway through. Luckily for you, activating it on accident and being sent to a boring walk through a bunch of messed up rooms. Teleporting didn't particularly make it very difficult for you to travel.

You found some more tools to help with Mechanics/Repairing, and you've found this robot.

These are the fruits of your tedious journey through empty rooms.

Unfortunately despite your ability to fix the metal fellow, he isn't activated, and you don't know how to finish the job. You're going to either have to leave him there mostly repaired or store him in your Pocket Dimension because the gods know he will not fit in your pack.

[ Decisions ]

For longer term readers that know what's going on, you can add a couple of items to the notebook in your effort to get off of this island.

It's pretty much a given you're going to take this robot, the voices are very excited for reasons you are not aware of, but it might be why there was a long silence.

"Let's get the hell out of here."

>>183397
Perhaps you should do some more exploring. Go on and leave the robot where he is for now, he should be fine. As you just said, the traps in this place havent been reset completeltly.

>>183404

>Go on and leave the robot where he is for now.

Why would we do that if we can store him in our Pocket Dimension. Get him.

Sooo, nothing to do but start exploring. Exits in this room?

>>183397
Wasn't there a room not connected to that bridge over the frozen stuff? Go see what's in there.

Go ahead and take the bot in our pocket (DIMENSION) since there's no point in leaving him there.

Also add "Finish Fixing Jack" to the notepad for shits and giggles. I'm doubtful we'll find something to jump start his old bones in here.

Just FYI we had some kind of psychic feedback... vision ...out of body experience thing of the last group that went through. I'm sure due to the fact this place is literally a death trap.

Go ahead and show us where you've explored on this handy dandy map would you?

There were a few electronic devices here so their outlets might still be powered....might want to check those rooms.

Can we have a list of our current inventory?

[ Mental Map ]

You started in the water, but your memories of the dirtiness compared to the voice's recollection are surprisingly different. The condition of the water is much better currently than it used to be. The next few rooms were relatively empty, and cleaned up. It wasn't really that bad until you got to the long round room in the North with the broken equipment and the dirt floor.

The room west of the one with the balance beam? You went in there to check it out, and it had some sort of switch that moved the grating on the floor where the beam was. It didn't do anything for you because the room was empty and dry. It was possibly a draining system. Then there was some mirror bits, a tile room. Some big hunks of whatever on an incline, and then the room where you were with the robot.

You go south into a room with a thin hole and a grate sitting on the south wall. There's an opening to go up.

activate el-warpo and let's blow this pop stand.

Put robots hands where his feet should be and flail them around.

also check hole in roof.

Hey, did that gun turret run on electricity or magic?

 

Aha! I knew we had what we needed to wake Jack up!

PORN!

Think you can manage to get his visual systems to work? Just for a fraction of a second that's all we need. Make sure Hell's furry's centerfold is opened in front of his face.

Trust me:If there's any energy left in him he'll spring to life in an instant.

Okay it's a silly idea. A very silly idea. Ah well if it doesn't work we'll have to find a power source...

>>184373
that... that may actually work.

>>184373
You're a fucking genius.

If it comes down to it you could probably take him alll the way back home and jack him into a wall socket. You put him back together, so you probably know what kinda power he needs, right?

>>184373
>>184376
>>184394
Are you guys sure Jack would even respond to just a picture? His attraction could be reserved purely for Actual Women. Ones he can do more than just look at..

>>184419
Oh that's easy then. She just has to activate his visual circuits, pull her boobs out and put his limp hands on them.

>>184425

Hand.

Look down the grate and see if you can spy anything of interest, failing that, just go through the hole in the ceiling and see what's up above.


Also, perhaps the bridge controls in the cave could give your new boy-toy enough of a power boost to give him new life. That is, if that control is still even running anymore.

[ Aura ]

You've gained a slightly better understanding of your aura. You can see your aura now. (The color underneath Asali.) Asali's leniency towards certain actions, and certain effects of her abilities are dependent on her aura.

[ Robot ]
Your voices seem to have a great understanding of your green metal friend, and that perversion will awaken him. You are fairly sure rest has nothing to do with it. When you were putting him together, many of his internal parts were damaged or fried when he was destroyed. Some even melted. You don't have anything you would need to complete it, nor is a power source the solution. Once he's fixed up and repaired with the right parts, he'll probably start up with or without your tits.

Although it is a nice notion that they'd be life savers.

[ Movement ]
You inspect the hole where the grating likely once set inside. It smells really bad, like blood and gore was sitting in there for way too long. You cough and go past the crushed grating before teleporting up through the opening. Soon after you step forward, the place seems to shift, and the lighting changes.

You are now in a room full of mirrors. It is not an entirely abnormal thing, but almost none of the mirror images seem identical to you, and some of them seem more twisted over time.

hey a black one that looks like epsilon!

>>187796
No it doesn't. You're imagining things.

>>187787
Before anyone suggests it: this is a BAD place to attempt teleportation again. I would advise against smashing the mirrors as well. It looks like she's in a relatively confined space, and showers of razor sharp metal and glass would be a bad thing, even with her toughness.

So, my suggestions:
1) look up at the ceiling, see where/if the mirrors stop.
2) look at the floor, see where/if the mirrors stop.
3) Take out Mission, see if his reflections are distorted too.

Hmm, put on the gas mask and wave, see if all the reflection do as you, or if some of them are illusions/magic or something.

>>187803
Almost forgot:
4. See how the room looks without the AUSPEX Goggles on.

>>187787
That black clone isn't wearing goggles!

I think perhaps it may be a shapeshifter, and not a reflection.

>>187787

You're forgetting something crucial

you need to dance in front of all of those mirrors.

>>188114

And make silly faces! Nobody can resist making silly faces at a funhouse!

File 127576866960.png - (132.86KB , 777x777 , BBQ586.png )

Without the goggles on this room is much darker, and it looks even weirder. If you don't remember much about the AUSPEX goggles, they reveal a lot of things about your surroundings, even out the lighting for your vision, and among many things, if something was an illusion, you wouldn't see it. Illusions, especially the magical type, wouldn't work with them.

The reflections return to normal when you put the goggles back on. All of them are now mostly normal looking except for two of them.

The blue and the red looking aura versions of yourself are pointing at you. The blue one looks extremely sad, and the red one looks amused. Although they do seem to be pointing closer to your feet.

As for dancing, you really don't feel like dancing, but you promise to dance once you can find Epsilon again.

Now you're making deals and promises with the voices in your head, how fantastic.

Also, beyond the two reflections pointing at you, all the rest are completely normal, and are doing what you do, including holding Mission.


Mission does not seem impressed, or interested in these mirrors. This was definitely not something up to his highly trained skill set.

well put him back in your inventory and strike a pose that has your regular reflection also pointing at your feet.

Hmm... Try to determine the point the two strange reflections are pointing at. Check if there's something there, like a hidden hatch or something.

If there's nothing, I guess we could also try to break one of the two aura mirrors. The... blue one? Fuck sadness.

>>188243
take that blue one and rub her cheeks, RUB THE HELL OUT OF THEM

>>188248
let's not. for all we know it would drive her insane... well MORE insane.

Alternatively, do a marx brothers mirror routine in the hope that one screws up.

>>188243
Walk slowly and carefully forward, arm out, while trying to walk with a light step (So you don't step immediately on something sharp, or fall into a hole, or set off a pressure plate trap). Try to gently touch the mirror in front of you.

>>188243
Blue is empathy, compassion. Red is schadenfreude, cruelty.

Examine where they are pointing at, then try mimicking the blue reflection's pose exactly.

>>188243
Since we're in crazyville right now, may as well try talking to them.

>>188452

You look down at your feet. Sure enough there is something down there. You lift open the hatch, which reveals a pull-chain.

"What do you want?" You say towards the reflections with the lives of their own.

The red one seems to cackle more, and it spells out words across the mirror. The blue one follows your actions, seeming to become a reflection as one would expect from a mirror.

You shiver, trying to focus more on the hatch. The words on the mirror remind you of something, but you can't place the memory.

Flip off the finger at the red reflection, what a jerk.

And continue opening the hatch.

But the red one remains alive because we listened to it by going for the chain!

If you pull the chain you'll murder your flower friend.

The shadow thing is ABOUT TO BITE THE FLOWER. If we do nothing THE FLOWER WILL DIE. There is no way for us to make the situation worse!

Pull the chain ffs!

>>189788
Yeah, gonna hesitantly suggest pulling the chain. Hopefully the blue one is mirroring you, because it's mirroring your good side.

Tug lightly on the chain and observe how the reflections react.

There's enough slack and enough redundant branches on that thing that pulling on it wouldn't stop it from chomping that flower.

So, what's preventing it from chomping right now?

The red reflection continues to cackle, pounding and clawing at the mirror. You grip the chain firmly in your left hand.

With your right, you make a fist and extend out your pinkie and ring finger alone. This is possibly the most crude gesture you could make towards someone, as this, "Flipping the bird," idea means absolutely nothing to you. Hopefully this will suffice.

The reflection stops laughing and starts to crack harder at the mirror in response. You jerk the chain upwards.

There is a loud KACHUNK, before the mirrors all around the room seem to fade and lower into the floor, meanwhile, the floor erupts around you, spiraling upwards. You have erected a staircase to an upper floor. It takes a moment for the noises and the stairs to stop their ascent. Afterwards, it's eerily silent all around you. Nothing but you and the stairs.

>>190394
That was pretty fuckin' cool.

Ascend stairs in an appropriately cool/mystified manner.

Also expediently, your flower friend might be in peril.

>>190394
>go up
there is no way up here
>climb stairs
that seems silly, climbing is for suckers

>ASCEND

just teleport to the top of the stairs.

Now that we have a way out, lets grab Jack and ascend the stairs in a badass manner.

Cautiously ascend the stairs.

>>190394
Can't we just teleport right to the flowers at this point?

Go left.

Teleport to the left.

File 127601634878.png - (202.20KB , 777x777 , BBQ590.png )

You ascend.

The doorway near the top has the symbol of the followers of the Waning of the Moon. The followers of Jianyu.

Teleporting to the flowers is quite a stretch, you still don't know how deep underground you are, so it would be difficult to place yourself versus the distance you need to travel. You could do that once you make it out of here, if you really want to.

>>190453
Investigate the circular recesses in the door frame. If they are boring, just walk on through.

Investigate the doorway while you ponder the The followers of Jianyu. When you are finished, if there is nothing interesting to note, then pass through the door.

Wait, no! Don't go through the door! You'll kill the fireflowers!

>>190394

It must be pretty damn offensive as a gesture, because its impossible to do without a magically animate skeleton arm. Regular tendon-users like me would experience great difficulty in fully extending the pinkie and ring fingers alone.

>>190631
i just tried, it kinda hurts.

>>190631

You enter the door. Inside of the door is a throne room. This was most obviously originally a shrine of some sort for the Waning of the Moon, a religion following the moon, and their leader, Jianyu. This has long been abandoned for that purpose, since the colony settled here was long sent away and taken control by the King.

The throne was probably sat in by a leader of the church. Behind the throne is a stone relief of Jianyu and his four personal guards, which he referred to as his pets. Jianyu was a very strong Fey, but his guardians were arguably more.

Jianyu believed strongly in Building the Universe. He is a very diplomatic person. He believes that racial differences can be ignored with a sense of politeness. He does not tolerate impolite natures at all.

He is, as most Fey are, known for his sexual appetite and is extremely charming.

There was a time where the followers of the moon were driven out from the capital of Mingxia and executed by The Brotherhood of the Sun. The few survivors including Jianyu traveled into the desert, and built a hidden shrine. Many years later, when Jianyu was much older, he made peace with surrounding countries and leaders. Jianyu completely overtook Mingxia and destroyed the Brotherhood of the Sun in one day during a Solar Eclipse with the help of four other armies. Since then, Jianyu has led the country.

That is about all you know of him. His following is centered in Mingxia, which is a foreign country to you. The King of the Rainbow Islands took over this underground shrine long ago, and turned it into what it is today.

You take a guess that people used to sit here and entertain themselves while people ran through the labyrinth.

There is another door past the throne, but it is not nearly as decorative.

charming in that kind of..metrosexual flasher kind of way.

check to see if the throne has anything useful

Examine the throne closely, and the stone relief, look for something interesting like hidden switches, or treasures. If there's nothing, stroll over that other door.

Seems like a nice guy, so lets try to not break anything. Look around, see what you can find.

Cute guy, but I am disturbed by his decorating. Who would leave a big shredded cloth hanging on the ceiling!? Either he was clueless about what to put around a room or he was hiding something up there. Likely a picture of his butt.

Since we don't have teleport up right now, and even then that looks to be a risky one, just chuck the wrench at it for now.

Also wtf at that chair it looks like it's going to hump something at any second. If you are going to inspect it at least do so carefully.

You walk behind the throne and mess around with it for a moment. It looks like there used to be some great treasure hidden inside of here. What you find is a fuse. You look around the area very thoroughly, and this is the peak of your findings.

At least it wasn't a complete waste of time.

You've already checked those cushions. They are very luxurious cushions while you're thinking about them. If it didn't smell terrible, and you hadn't already been stuck down in this place for hours you might want to sit down and stare into the darkness like a Queen for a while.

Once you are satisfied and have copped enough feels from inanimate objects and trying every possible action you can think of to try and acquire a hidden item or scene you finally go to the doorway.

Inside of the new room--if you could call it a room--is a set of engravings on the floor, and a sign on the wall intended for who you assume were the people who never completed cleaning or resetting the place several years back.

What could this room's purpose be?

looks like a teleporter to me. stand on the thing and you out.

>>207669

Hmmm... I'm pretty sure we've seen that symbol before, but I can't remember where right now.

That sign is interesting. Check the back-side of it.

Ah, you can use the medallion here to activate the teleporter or whatever this thing is. Check the back of the sign first of course. (I'm betting it's just going to be blank though)

You check the back of the sign. It looks like some of the workers weren't always on the ball.

You don't have the medallion in your inventory, but you stand at the center. It glows red and activates.

Where did you go? It feels like your entire body is asleep for a second, and all your senses cut off. It's an almost entirely unpleasant experience.

Now you're free to do about anything on the island.

You warp once, but it's not nearly far enough to get all the way across the island to Queen Atsusa. You finally arrive, and she is not much of a sight to see. The Queen is shriveled up, and the blackness seems to be running through her. She raises her withering flower of a head and speaks as you approach.

"...I was beginning to think you forgot about me. I hope you can still help my children, but it may be too late for me." Her voice is crackly and weak. It is most likely a good thing you came here so soon, she doesn't seem to have much more time.

Find the roots. We saw them in the precog, before. Expose some roots and see if you can figure out what's wrong with them.

grab that black vine sticking out over there and PULL!

Apologize for getting waylayed.

You frown and step over to the exposed black tendril looking thing over to the side. You tug and pull at it hard. It doesn't give way easily, but when it does, the area seems to shake. There is movement all over the place, as all of the black vine looking things all over the cave start erupting to life.

"Asali! What are you doing, it hurts so much!" The Queen cries out and writhes in pain. You've not said anything to her, and now it seems like you don't even need to pull too much more.

Something is coming out for you.

>>208771
Get your hammer ready to smash it.

"i'm gonna kill whatever this thing is"

"I'm gonna lay the beatdowns of beatdowns on this black stuff"

...Okay let me kindof plan this out a bit more.

Go over to the queen and defend her from the vines as best you can. Inform her of them since she is apparently blind or something.

Hmmm, some kind of fire weapon would've been nice.

Smash the black tendrils. When it comes, attack it with your aura.

>>208805
Did you forget about the fact we're trying to save a flower? Fire is probably not the answer.

>>208824

Did you forget that she's a fire flower?

>>208826
That is not any sort of guarantee!

Oh hey, I bet we can get past the ice-wall if we manage to save the fire-flowers.

But enough of that! Cast magic hammer on the darkness! And engage COMBAT AURA. Oh, assure the Queen that you're going to try your best to save her and all of her children.

You step back once you notice tugging further is unnecessary and take out your hammer.

"Queen Atsusa, I believe I found your problem, I'm sorry if I caused you pain but I am going--"

The vines have formed into something much larger and dangerous than you anticipated. It snaps its jaws closed and then opens them to release a flame. Its many tentacles holding up its form while more of it pours out of the hole where you pulled at the 'root.'

"--to kill...whatever this thing is, I hope."

Combat Aura it up and try to smash the body of the black creature.

Combat aura, and go for the eyes!

>>208924
GO FOR THE EYES BOO! GO FOR THE EYES!

>>208915
Yes, the eyes. You should avoid approaching it from the front, what with the flame breath and sharp teeth. Not gonna be easy, tentacles and all.

>>208931
I'm thinking whack the body to bring the creature down to your level, THEN we can smash the head.

Dodge the fire, obviously.

I disagree. Run around it, aim FOR the tentacles! You want to hurt it so you'll get an opening to get to the eyes.

The part where it breathes fire makes me worried about its possible link to the fireflower queen. Is she still like, alive? Watch out for damage done showing up on both of them.

The monster moves before you can. It lunges at you, lashing out to grab you with some of its many tentacles, but you leap and stumble over its back. In retaliation you swing your hammer haphazardly and take a strong aura enhanced thwack at it. It shakes from the blow but no outward damage is done.

You have a much better chance of hitting its eyes up here if you can keep your balance.

The Queen is hiding in her cave, she doesn't seem to react when you slammed your hammer into the beast, so you can make a safe guess they aren't linked.

Judging from its attack that erupted where you were a moment ago, it's another safe bet that if caught, it's going to hurt a lot.

Hit it again, in the eyes, with your Offensive Aura. Grab onto a tentacle for stability if necessary. Try to keep low to the... 'ground' for extra balance.

>>209248
Did you just hammer its ass? It's smiling. Why is it smiling? I bet it enjoyed it. How devious.

Get outa there before it surrounds you with its tentacles. Exit from above the head again, and try to land a hit while you do.

Swing tail for extra balance bonus. Then hammer to the eyes.

wait.... part of it is still underground! it must not be able to leave all the way. YANK IT OUT!

>>209256
I concur! Hammer the fuck out of it, Asali!

You keep low and hurry forward towards the head and swing your tail to throw more power into your hammer. You slam it into at least two of the beast's eight eyes.

It splatters outwards from the crushing force. It roars in pain, stumbling and writhing around.

>>209542
It's time for... WARP+AURA ATTACK!

Warp over to the other side of its face and smash it in the eyes again.

>>209550
Gonna have to agree here. Try to look for weak points in skull. If it HAS a skull.

>>209542

It's probably going to counter-attack now. Quickly warp to the right side of its body, and hammer the other side of its face!

I love hammer-diplomacy.

You are stabbed in the left foot before you can even think. The pain jolts through your body. You snap into a teleport, and empty your psi-well into another attack, smashing in two or three more of its eyes on the other side.

You don't have much time to observe your powerful attack as you are ensnared in tentacles and gored in the stomach for your effort. In the act, you have dropped your hammer.

You cry out in pain, and you are pretty sure you've just been injected with venom twice.

>>209683
fffffuck

Scream for help?

>>209683
TAKE OUT THE WRENCH AND START BASHING TO GET FREE

I guess we could bite the tentacles.

>>209685
Also, yes, try grabbing a tentacle with your bandaged hand!

Uuuh, not much to do, shit is going down.

Probably going to be useless, but try to talk to it. Maybe it's sentient and not just a dumb monster. Our only hope is to stay alive long enough to reload the warp power.

just shoot out everything in your inventory. something has to work... like launch the porn at it and hope it serves as a distraction.

You struggle and scream at the creature in defiance and pain. In the meanwhile, it slams you around and into the rocky wall.

You manage to slide your skeleton arm out from the tight hold of the tentacles, and you take a tight hold on your hammer.

You feel the heat as it sparks up a small flame, roaring angrily down at your much smaller form.

Alright, warp behind the tail of the fucker and slam it down, trying to nail the sting through its head.

YES! let's see how it likes a taste of it's own medicine!

Teleport behind it. You have to kill it now, this is your only opportunity! Destroy its damn tail. After that, hop away a ways, it'll probably spun around and try and whack you.

Actually, aren't scorpions supposed to be weak to alcohol? If one manages to pour some on a scorpion's back, it goes wack and stings itself.

Suppose Mint'd let you borrow some of her stronger stuff?

>>209763
It just makes scorpions angrier.
They do it in scorpion fights to ensure that both scorpions are aggressive.

Teleport the venom from out of your body.

You blink.

When you open your eyes, you can only see out of the left. The flames are licking at your face, and without so much of a thought, you use your warp to save yourself from the fire.

Your warp distorts, and you go absolutely nuts with your hammer before you even fully come out of it, onto your feet.

The monster collapses to the ground, and just oozes out.

Your breaths are heavy, and painful. You can feel yourself getting weaker. You can barely hold your hammer, but you are victorious.

You blink again, and your vision is back.

>>209999
Asali! Are you okay?! That poison seems nasty, quick, pull out Mission J and tell him to find help! Maybe from the Queen. You just rest there and try to slow your bloodflow.

Proceed to trip balls on poison

We really need to stop ending fights like this.

>>210004
Agreed, but cave the thing's skull in first. Take no chances.

>>209999
Maybe we should try to get to the disco flowers? Their area is safe from the Dark Plague for some reason.

Make sure the Queen is going to be alright, first. Tell her you've been poisoned; maybe she has a better idea of how to fix that.

You turn around and lay a final smash down upon the creature's head before you put your weapon away. You weakly step towards the Queen while the black being slowly vanishes in a huge puddle like the rest of them have.

While you walk, with the darkness away, small flowers begin to rise up all over the cavern vines. The temperature rises a few degrees.

The Queen smiles, her blackening withered form crackling as she moves, shaking while she holds a bottle towards you. "I do not know what you have done, but it has saved my children. This fiery potion is all I have to really repay you. I hope it can help you. Do not feel you have failed because I am fading away, I am full of joy that my little ones will live. Thank you so much Asali." She falls back and rests in a heap inside her small cavern home.

Your aura has changed.

Your body hurts and is weak, and you have no way of knowing if it has resisted poison being that you haven't been poisoned before.

just get somewhere safe and rest. that is all you can really do for now.

Farewell, noble queen.

Ok, the potion will probably work with the Ice wall! But I guess we should make sure that we aren't going to suddenly die of poisoning.

>>210100

Yeah, rest would be nice. Go to Epsilon's room and rest until you fee better. And maybe Epsilon or Mint are there.

Epsilon's room is... really far away. The closest sanctuary we have is the Rave Flower party, if we just want to rest. If we want to get somewhere new and maybe find an actual antidote we can try the door that needs the fuse.

>>210104

I don't think that a rave party is really the best place to REST.

>>210110
I'd like to add that I don't really tend to plug in random fuses to random doors in hopes of finding medicine that may or may not exist

Safe place to rest...hey, isn't there a killer robot who kind of doesn't hate us nearby?

And by the way, we need to reorganize our pouch. Because that book feels useless there and we must have stuff that we can use in a life or death situation there.

You look around. The little fireflowers are very quiet, you ask, "Can any of you speak?" You wait a brief moment, and decide they either cannot, or don't have the heart to do so right now before you leave.

You need the Fuse and the Wires to open the door in the West Garden area. You got the fuse but strangely you do not have the Wires, and have not for quite a spell. You will need to reacquire the Wires to go there. (They haven't been anywhere you've walked recently either, and you're walking around where you found them currently.)

You decide to go to Epsilon's place. This is quite a long walk to the forest, into the forest, and then using your key, you go in.

To no surprise, nobody is in here. You catch the vague smell of smoke again, like at the Labyrinth Entrance formerly known as the Strange Landmark.

You favor your wounds and lay down on the bed to rest. Your clothes are getting extremely ruined and beat up, and your body is still weak, and you feel even worse. You are near passing out.

Right now all you can think about are Mint and Epsilon. Either or Both of them being with you right now would make you feel better, hell it would make you feel less alone.

Oh well. Try to get some sleep and get better.

Although, before that you could try and use Precog to see whre Epsilon and Mint might be.

Ergh. Why don't we Warp over to Mint's place then, since apparently we're not getting any better.

So, uh, I've been thinking, and the 3 weird plates we've found so much each had a roman numeral on it, and had symbols for the previous numbered plate and the next numbered plate.

So, since III had a volcano on it as the location of IV, can we at least add "Find Volcano" to our to-do list?

>>210185
That's not entirely true. I is blank - thunder power - tree. II is graveyard - grey /\ power - temple. III is tree - water power - volcano.

>>210185
And add "Check Fire Flower cave" (Whoops) to the list, but we can cross off checking up on the Queen.

>>210188
I was found in the graveyard, II was found in the forest, III was found in a temple.

Sure looks like they're pointing the right way to me.

>>210190
Oh, sure enough you're right. I wasn't thinking about it properly. Still, I wonder what that grey power is. Necromancy?

>>210191
I think it's the white clan, which have the power to heal.

You set Mission J. Frog on the bed, and mark off the queen on your notepad.

You have no desire to cuddle with a metal lizard, that is by no means comfortable. You consider going to see Mint at her place, but you don't really have the strength to go there.

You feel an incredible amount of pain, and move around. The figures in front of you distort and swirl around as you feel touches all over your body.

"Guh huh. I'm sorry, oh you're asleep aren't you. Well I did my job. Please hurry, we're very cold."

"Who is your Master?! Where are you?" Your eyes shoot open and a green pair of hands are bandaging up your abdomen.

"Woah, feisty when you wake up, eh?" Mint leans back a little and blows a puff of smoke. The same smoke you've been smelling. She is sitting next to a bag filled with herbs and the gods know what else. She is putting some of them away as you notice you're almost entirely naked.

"Been trying to find you, left the hut a while ago. Found you here, and lo and behold you were in a venomed up fever, so I treated you. Nice that my pharmaceutical knowledge came in handy, right?" She laughs and inhales, looking out the window. It's very dimly lit in here. "Your clothes are wrecked up to all hell, you been jumping off trees?"

...Something like that. At least you managed to save some people... plants... plant people... whatever.

Thank her for the treatment, you might have died or at least been out of commission for way too long.

Then, since she doesn't have all that muscle and such on that arm, she can use the extra space to hide shit like heat-seeking micro-missiles or a small-grade blaster cannon.

You thank her without using words.

Mint blushes initially, but the moment is slow and sweet. Once your lips part you simply sit upright and look over yourself.

"When I was dreaming, the great spirit of death spoke to me." You begin talking, trying not to rush as you have a lot on your mind.

"People see a lot of crazy shit when they're unconscious." She says, smoking her joint once again.

"Is there anything weird about my eye?" You ask her.

"Your eye has been messed up since I met you, baby, is it getting worse?" She asks.

"No, just weird. I've been going through a lot of crazy shit. Just monsters everywhere, falling into the Labyrinth, trying to make a single bit of sense over everything."

"Woah, uh, yeah everything's gotten really desolate since everyone started dying in the first place. It's why I stayed in my hut for so long," she trails off, giving a pause in the conversation before talking again, "I'm really sorry about the Labyrinth or whatever, I found the necklace sitting on the stones when I was looking all over for you."

"It's alright, Mint. You do see my right arm is nothing but bones, right?"

"That'd be hard to miss, I'm high, not in a coma."

The robot and Gamma can wait. He's been out of commission for years, he can wait a few more hours at most.

Awwww~

When you finish, ask her if she knows anything about any thieves.

Ask how she got in the room without the key...

For that matter, how she knew about this place at all. I mean, it's pretty hidden.

Her clothes are in the way, remove them.

Ask her how she found and got into Epsilon's room as well as why she had been at the large slab leading to the labyrinth. Also ask why she left her hut, where all she's been in her travels and if she's found any hints of chu or Epsilon. You may also wish to show/give her the porn magazine as well. Perhaps it'll lift her spirits a bit?

After you've finished speaking with Mint you should rest some more, in hopes of getting rid of any after affects the venom may have. Wondering as you drift off, if the remains of the curtains in the room might make a suitable replacement for your ruined clothes.

take it a step further.

Oy, why are we messing around with Mint again, horndogs? The mood is totally wrong for it. 'sides if we keep on at this it's less a casual fling that Epsilon doesn't mind (because apparently he's watching?) and more polyamory or something, which he'd mind I think.

"Mint, where have you been? How have you been? Have you seen Chu or Epsilon? Why'd you finally leave your hut? How'd you get in here without a key--how'd you find Epsilon's place? Know anything about any thieves?"

Mint takes a few long drags, her eyes opening a little wider than usual at all of your questions before she laughs softly and finally speaks, "That's a lot. I can answer most of those pretty easily. I guess your visit made me want company, I was trying to find you. I haven't seen Chu at all, unfortunately, no idea where she went off to. Chu is also conveniently the only Thief I am aware of at the moment." You show her the porn mag out of curiosity, and rub at her with your hand idly, trying to advance your bedside manner.

Mint flips through the pages, until coming to the skunk centerfold. "Yeah, here's Chu if you need a visual aid. She did a couple pinups, possibly the only honest work she's done." She gives a slightly sad kind of a laugh before taking another puff. She then takes your hand off of her body and just holds it.

"Which leads me to the portions of your questions I didn't answer. I really don't want to do anything with you right now, love. That almost hurts me to say it, believe me. I did run into your shadow lover. I told him I was trying to find you. He brought me here, and gave me a key to get in. Said you would come here eventually looking for him. He told me to tell you that he can't see you yet, but he will see you soon."

You definitely want to know why he can't see you yet, but at least it's confirmation he is alive. You're thinking and about to say something when Mint interjects right back into her tangent.

"Oh and we definitely talked over me having sex with you, because I remembered your big bad shark was your reason for resisting. He quite promptly fucked me stupid and sore."

She stretches out her legs and leans in to kiss your cheek.

"Oh and he said something like, 'Let her know that next time we'll share, fucking by proxy is not as efficient.'"

Tell Mint how glad you are to see her again and that your happy your visits seem to have made some difference to her, then playfuly scold her about how her misadventure could have ended poorly.
Pet her hand and thank her about confirming your suspision about the centerfold as well, then remind her that you'll be keeping a special eye out for Chu, just for her.

Laugh at Epsilon's explots with Mint before, once again, thanking her for all the information as well as medical help. Then promtly notice that Mission is gone and search the room for him. Should he not turn up, then make plans to head out, possibly back to the Ice Cave or Gamma's place. Chances are that he'll return when he's ready or you'll find him again in the end.

Oh, and don't forget to inform Mint to stay at the house incase Epsilon comes back, andtokeephersafe.

Also, costume idea.
Overalls with belt and five pockets - possibly made from Epsilons curtains maybe?
Steel toe work boots
Work shirt - part Tank-top part T-shirt to cover her right shoulder better.

You pet her hand with yours and you slide your minutely sore form to the edge of the bed. You notice that Mission is gone. He is nowhere to be found as of now.

"Thank you very much for helping me out. I don't know what would have happened without you, but please don't wander around anymore. Either stay here or go back to your hut where Chu would know you to be. I will be sure to look out for her."

You are intending to go to the Ice Cave, but you also don't want to go there naked. Mint smiles and slides a box out from besides the bed and leans it towards you.

"Epsilon left a package for you, you might want it before you go."

>>214302
OPEN THE PRESENT OH BOY I HOPE IT IS A PONY

Get ye package.

>>214302
MISSION J FROG NOOOOOOOOOO

>>214302
Thoughtfully open the box and either admire or loath your latest gift from the shadowy shark

"Sure thing, baby. And I'll tell that pervert of your shark boyfriend of you if he comes back to my hut again. I would give you one of my rainbow leaf smokes, but I guess you need to stay sharp."

Don't forget to give each other a kiss before leaving.

Open the parcel and then find the nearest hole to jump in like that one chapter where it happened 4 chapters after I suggested it happening.

Mint smiles as you take the parcel from her, "Sure thing, baby. I'll be sure to tell that pervert shark boyfriend of yours that if he comes back to my hut again. I would give you one of my rainbow leaf smokes, but I guess you need to stay sharp."

You open the box, and inside is your old work uniform. Now you have some useful, and protective clothing to go around in, rather than that impractical dress you were wearing before.

You sit back down and lean, Mint runs one hand through your hair.

"Well I'm going to go try and help solve all the shit on this island now. You be careful on the way back to your hut."

She takes you into a kiss before she takes her stuff and leaves Epsilon's place.

I think it's time for a little inventory management.

Leave Epsilon's and stylishly make your way to the Ice Cave.
After making sure to place the Locket, Yellow gem stone and Blue Metal Piece in your new pockets.

If its dark outside use your new butt light to-oh wait i see whats going on there.

>>214381
Hmm, ok I agree that we should keep the blue metal piece and the locket out... but we already know what the gem stone is for. We can leave that in the dimensional pocket until we go back to the Diskownt Store.

Put the Snoball Mix and empty 'M' bottle in the other two slots.

>>214377
Fantastic. Now to find a suitable hole to jump into.

You arrive at the Ice Cave. You are feeling pretty great.

You've put a bunch of possibly useless items in your pockets, and are ready to work.

It's like your first day at the job, but without the boss, work site, co-workers, training, money, lunch breaks, or overbearing dream shattering depression.

So, it's really nothing like a job at all, but it is cold.

Lets kick some ice.

drip a drop of that fire flower potion the queen gave you.

Red potion + Ice wall = ???

Are you supposed to drink the potion, or just melt the ice with it directly?

>>214521

I think it would be wiser to drip a drop on the ice before chugging the potion, in case it tastes like BURNING DEATH.

>>214486
Place a drop or two of the potion on the ice to see if that'll melt it. If it works then throw the rest of the bottle onto the ice in an overly dramatic fashion.
If it fails... then try taking a swig and see what happens.

Hugs and kisses and all that sappy shit.

You aren't drinking liquid fire, you're not one of those Kibai clan jerks.

You splash the potion over the large block of ice, and it begins to steam and melt down. This is not good enough for you so it's Ice Kicking Time. The melting ice breaks apart and the steam rises up.

Inside of the steam rises a tiger with glowing neon blue eyes. Its image doesn't seem stable, and it just stares into your eyes.

"Asali, you freed the caged bird, you aided the trapped and the helpless, but you ignored creatures struggling for survival. You allowed one of my brethren to fall to the dark, was there reason for your hesitation?"

It speaks with a loud, and powerful voice, but it doesn't seem centered around the shaking form of the tiger's body. The eyes pierce through you, as if straight through your soul.

Confusion, surprise, before I knew what was happening it was over.

"I didnt understand the significance until it was too late"

alternatively
"your brethren reminded me of someone who had done me a great wrong, my apologies."

>>214684
Well, we didn't want to interfere with nature taking is course, and if they weren't just animals we didn't know why they were fighting. It wasn't clear that the black snake was evil until after the fight. Just going by color is unreliable. If we had the chance to choose again, we would help.

Sorry.

"because the voices in my head were feeling like jerks at the time"

>>214689
I agree with, "I didnt understand the significance until it was too late."

Or

"I didn't understand at the time what I do now, and my mistakes shall forever hang over my head like a cloud. But while I failed to aid all that were in need, I managed to save others. Such as the little Fire Flowers and the Angry Tree. Whom I could have harmed or ignored as well.
My actions are inexcusable, but all whom I have aided should be taken into account, not just my acts toward your brethren."

Yeah, I would go with "I didn't understand it until it was too late, dawg."

"Woah, woah. The fact I helped any of them is amazing at all being that I had no prompting that anything on this island was relevant or important in any way. I've helped almost everyone I've met, rebooted the economy of what little shops still stand, I better not be getting penalized for letting a strange snake get killed out of no where. I'm sorry and all, but god damn."

"You are strong of the mind, body, and in your heart. I will not punish you for an accidental deed of negligence, do not fret. In fact I will reward you. One of us was lost, but of the three of us, you may choose one for a blessing."

The tiger seems to be less threatening in aura to you, but the steam is still very present. The turtle and the lizard float nearby.

"What do the blessings all do?" You ask, a little bewildered.

"Now, now, Bubble Touched, you're not supposed to unwrap your presents until you receive them, but you only get one." The tiger speaks, amused.

So which of the three will you choose?
