You exit the convenience store and take a sigh. Whelp, time to head back to the apartment. You shake your head, for the last week you had been inside all day either studying or playing video games. You couldn’t remember the last time you went out with your friends. You step out on the cross walk to cross the street.
All of a sudden, you see a truck losing control! It's headed right towards you!
[[Jump out of the way!->truckjump]]
[[Stare at the truck like a deer in headlights->truckdeath]]
<<audio bgmusic play>>Not today! In a heroic twist of fate, you leap out of the way of the truck, and you fall face first into the sidewalk. You quickly get up as you hear the horn of the truck pass by you. What a save!
Suddenly, a sharp pain jolts through your body, and you look down to see a knife stuck in your stomach. You look up again and realize someone just fucking stabbed you. The assailant watches you as you slowly bleed out from your injuries. He quickly grabs all your belongings and dips. An id falls to the ground as you recognize it's your classmate from computer science. Damn. Guess you were destined to die either way...
<<set $howdie to "shank">>
[[Your vision goes black...and then you wake back up with a gasp ->flashback]]You can do nothing as you are frozen in fear, staring down the headlights of the truck as the horn blares. And just like that, the truck slams into you with a force you had never felt in your entire life. Your bones felt like they all vaporized instantly. What a way to go...
<<set $howdie to "truck">>
[[Your vision goes black... ->flashback]]You feel your life fading away from you, and your life flashes before your eyes.
//I studied so hard to finally get into NYU. There was still so much I wanted to do…sadge. I can’t believe my life was cut short, it's so not poggers. I wonder how my family is and if anyone will miss me. At least they won’t have to pay my college tuition anymore…//
The final bits of your soul float away from you, into the nothingness.
But wait...you don't feel gone yet...you feel...you feel...
[[You feel...->wakeup]]
You feel your head ringing as you gasp awake, the life shooting straight back into you. What the hell?
You heavily breathe as you try and grasp what just happened, when you become suddenly aware of the face of a young girl staring you in the face. She has a huge smile plastered on her face. She looks to be around...12? 13?
She immediately starts talking as she notices you waking up.
"WOW, what do we have here! Hi I’m Zoeyyyy! Who are you?"
<<textbox "$name" "Main Character">>
[[Enter Name ->zoe1]]Zoey: Nice to meet you $name! I'm Zoey! Nice to meet you!
You: Where...where am I? Am I dead?
Zoey: Dead? No!You’re in Luneterro Dummy!
She cocks her head at you and looks at you with a confused expression.
You look around and see that there are no people or buildings in sight. Theres a forest in front of you, and what looks like a desert expanse behind you. You look back to the girl, Zoey.
You: Hey, you’re just a kid, what the heck are you doing out here?
Zoey frowns and scoffs at you.
Zoey: Who are you calling a kid?! I'm thousands of years old!! I'm not a little kid! Hmph!
She crosses her arms and frowns.
[[Oh! Sorry!->apologizezoey]]
[[You //look// like a little kid... ->looklikekid]]You: Oh! Sorry, I'm still getting used to how things work in this place...Luneterro you said? I'm, uh, not from here.
Her frown fades and turns to an expression of fascination.
Zoey: Now that I think about it, you did fall from the sky. Last I checked, there was nothing up there to fall from! So how did you get here?
You: Well, that's what I'm trying to figure out...
You glance at Zoey.
[[Ask her for help ->helpzoey]]
[[Ask her on a date. She is 1000 years old after all, so it's ok right? ->smite1]]You: Hey, don't get mad at me! You're the one that //looks// like a child.
Zoey scowls at you.
Zoey: That's because I'm a celestial! I am immortal, but forever in the body of when I first ascended, dummy. Don't you have celestials where you come from?
You: Uh...no not exactly.
[[Ask Zoey for help getting out of here ->helpzoey]]
[[Ask Zoey on a date, since she //is// thousands of years old so it's ok! ->smite1]] You: Wait, do you think you could help me figure out how I got here? Or at least, how to get back to my home...?
Zoey smiles at you, and jumps up into the sky with a laugh.
Zoey: Sure! Let's see what I can find!!
You watch, mezmerized, as she starts to form portals around her. Magical particals begin to spin around her and all of a sudden, the daytime sky turns to night. The scene is beautiful, the stars here are evidently much more vivid here than they were back on Earth...but then your mind gets blown.
Zoey looks to be literally grabbing and moving around the stars from right here! What in the world?!
After a few minutes of this fantastical display, she floats down back to you with a scroll in her hand, one that she had pulled out of some portal on her way down.
[[That was insane!!! What the hell was that?! ->zoeyexplain]]Are you sure?
[[Yes, she's over A THOUSAND YEARS OLD!! ->smite2]]
[[Uh...this feels like a trap... ->trap1]]Zoey: Oh! I was just reading my star chart. Uh, you have //stars// where you come from right...?
You: ...YES yes I have //stars//, but I've never seen anything like what you just did...
She laughs at you, and opens the scroll.
Zoey: Anyways! Based on the constellations,it looks like you were warped to this universe by some higher power! Or…two higher powers? Angio and Manvo…I’ve never heard these names before but according to my star chart they sent you into our universe for some reason.
[[Can...is it possible to find out why? ->bouttostart]]
[[Wow those are some really cool names! ->coolnames]]
Zoey nods as she rolls up the scroll and throws it into another portal.
Zoey: I’ll have to do some research into it…but don’t worry! I’ll find out! In the meantime, you should head into the main city, Piltunder.
She points to the forest in front of you.
Zoey: It's about half a day's walk through there, and don’t worry about evil monsters, they only come out at night! I’ll meet you in the city tonight, bye bye! Have fun!
With that, she forms a portal under her feet and drops through, closing it behind her. And, you are left alone in front of the intimidating forest, apparently leading the way to some city with a very familiar but trademark-safe name.
You turn around and look again at the vast desert behind you.
Hmm...
[[(Angie's Route) Follow Zoey's instructions and venture into the forest ->gamestartAngie]]
[[(Manav's Route) Disregard Zoey’s instructions and head off on your own adventure! ->gameStartManav]]
You: Oh wow those are some cool names. They must be very powerful and awesome and very attractive and highly intelligent gods...
Zoey: I'm sure they are!
[[Think you could help me get home? ->bouttostart]]You head off into the forest at the command of the young girl. Or, rather, the immortal celestial being who just //looks// like a young girl.
Traveling through the shrubbery, you soon discover a faint dirt path, and figure that it should head right towards the city that Zoey spoke of...Piltunder.
However, you also take notice of some footsteps in the dirt that stray away from the path and in the opposite direction. The footsteps //do// seem to be human...
[[Down the path you go! ->seraphine1]]
[[Follow the footsteps! ->ezreal1]]You chuckle to yourself. No stupid little 12 year old is going to tell you what to do!
You turn around and take a look at the vast desert behind you. With a deep breath, you take your first step into the sand, and into your new story.
[[A couple hours later... ->desert1]]
<span style="color: red;">GOD SMITES YOU FOR BEING DISGUSTING. THE END. </span>Not at all! Go ahead, she only looks like a child on the outside, she has more lifetime experience than any mortal being in existence!
[[Alright, I'll go for it! ->smite2]]
[[...On second thought, I'll just ask her for help getting home ->helpzoey]] Double-click this passage to edit it.Well surely, if there's another human out here, it is safer to find them and travel together, right? After all, you know nothing of what lurks in these jungles...
You scan your surroundings for any landmarks, just in case you need to find your way back.
You finally settle on a large tree that looks like a small tree, and figure that you'd be able to spot it out of a bunch.
[[And off to follow the footsteps you go! ->ez2]]You continue through the desert for what seems like hours. Well, based on the sun setting on the horizon, it certainly //was// for hours. You stop and survey your surroundings, to get a better grip on where to find the best adventure.
To the North, you see sand.
To the South, you see sand.
To the East, you see sand.
To the West, you see sand.
[[Go North ->northdesert1]]
[[Go South ->southdesert1]]
[[Go East ->eastdesert1]]
[[Go West ->westdesert1]]You decide to go North, but for some odd reason, you feel like your decision didn't even matter. This desert seems infinitely expanding, endless dunes of sand and dust, an eternity between you and the ever reaching horizon...
You start to feel thirsty. And hungry. You haven't eaten since this morning. The heat from the sun is draining your energy. Maybe you should have just listened to that celestial, immortal girl. Perhaps she knew better...
[[Collapse, give up, and face death ->reksai1]]
[[KEEP GOING, NEVER GIVE UP, LAUGH IN THE FACE OF DEATH ->yasuo1]]You decide to go South, but for some odd reason, you feel like your decision didn't even matter. This desert seems infinitely expanding, endless dunes of sand and dust, an eternity between you and the ever reaching horizon...
You start to feel thirsty. And hungry. You haven't eaten since this morning. The heat from the sun is draining your energy. Maybe you should have just listened to that celestial, immortal girl. Perhaps she knew better...
[[Collapse, give up, and face death ->reksai1]]
[[KEEP GOING, NEVER GIVE UP, LAUGH IN THE FACE OF DEATH ->yasuo1]]You decide to go East, but for some odd reason, you feel like your decision didn't even matter. This desert seems infinitely expanding, endless dunes of sand and dust, an eternity between you and the ever reaching horizon...
You start to feel thirsty. And hungry. You haven't eaten since this morning. The heat from the sun is draining your energy. Maybe you should have just listened to that celestial, immortal girl. Perhaps she knew better...

[[KEEP GOING, NEVER GIVE UP, LAUGH IN THE FACE OF DEATH ->yasuo1]]You decide to go West, but for some odd reason, you feel like your decision didn't even matter. This desert seems infinitely expanding, endless dunes of sand and dust, an eternity between you and the ever reaching horizon...
You start to feel thirsty. And hungry. You haven't eaten since this morning. The heat from the sun is draining your energy. Maybe you should have just listened to that celestial, immortal girl. Perhaps she knew better...
[[Collapse, give up, and face death ->reksai1]]
[[KEEP GOING, NEVER GIVE UP, LAUGH IN THE FACE OF DEATH ->yasuo1]]You collapse to the ground and groan as your heavy eyelids slowly shut. The warm sand soothes your skin, and you realize that it's much nicer than the sand back on Earth...maybe this isn't such a bad place to die.
<<if $howdie is "truck">>
Hey, its better than getting run over by a truck...
<<endif>>
<<if $howdie is "shank">>
Hey, its better than getting stabbed and robbed...
<<endif>>
You sigh and relax your body, sinking into the soft, soothing sand...and smile as death closes it's grasp around you.
[[You feel a hot breath on your face...? ->reksai2]]You grit your teeth, and take a deep breath. YOU WILL NOT LET SOME MEASLY HEAT STRIKE YOU DOWN!! YOU WILL VENTURE ON!!
You: HAHAHAAHAHAHAH! I LAUGH IN THE FACE OF DEATH!! NOTHING CAN STOP ME!!
Just then, as you deleriously laugh at nothing and no one in particular, you are suddenly tackled and pinned to the floor. You look up startled and staring back at you is a disgusting bandit, grinning with their disgusting bandit teeth, wearing a disgusting bandit hat. Disgusting.
Quickly scanning around, you also notice that there are MORE of them, walking closer to you.
You: HEY! GET OFF ME!!
Bandit #1: Not a chance, kid.
The bandits spoke in a British accent.
Bandit #2: Yeah, we're going to take all your belongings. Now hand 'em over mate.
Bandit #3: And after that, maybe we'll have a little more fun with you...
[[WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK ->yasuosave]]
[[Fuck these British sounding bandits, time to fight back! ->banditkill]]You: Zoe? Is that you?
You slowly open your eyes expecting to see the young girl's face all up in your grill like before...instead you are met with the snarling face of a terrifying creature that you had never seen in your life.
It was akin to some kind of purple, plated armadillo, but the size of an elephant. Instead of a bottom jaw, it just had two small tusk-like appendages snapping open and shut, with a long, thin tongue protruding out. And...it had no eyes!
[[HOLY SHIT WHAT THE FUCK?! //Run away// ->runrek]]
[[*Calmly* Uhh...hi...how's it goin? ->introrek]]
[[*Smirk* What dat tongue do? ->rekkill]]You freak out, perhaps understandably so, and scramble to your feet before promptly skedaddling out of there. You take off in some random direction away from the beast, and run for your dear life.
You've already died once, you're definitely not going out like this.
After about 10 minutes of non-stop running, you slow down and collapse back on the sand. You must have lost it by now, right?
You look behind you, and to your horror, you see the beast tunneling in and out of the sand, traveling like a shark on the hunt for it's prey. Before you know it, the horrifying creature is already underneath you, and it jumps out of the sand, catching you with it's jaws and snapping your body in half. The world once again fades from your eyes as you watch the monster eat your legs before dragging your upper body towards it's mouth.
<span style="color: red;">DEAD</span>You: Uh...h-hi...h-how's it g-g-going?
You chuckle nervously and hold out your hand to shake.
The beast makes a creepy growling/clicking noise at you, and wraps it's tongue around your hand. You brace yourself, prepared to be chomped up...but to your surprise, the creature shakes your hand with the tongue.
It reaches into the sand with it's enormous, bulky claws, and pulls out a peice of paper. You take it and realize that the paper has braille imprinted on it.
[[Good thing I know braille! ->rek1]]
[[Damn, I don't know braille... ->rekbye]]In your delerious state, you start to feel kind of frisky when you see the creature's tongue. You smirk at the beast.
You: What dat tongue do tho? ;)
After a moment, the beast's tongue wraps around your body, and pulls you into it's mouth, snapping it's jaws around you and killing you instantly.
<span style="color: red;">DEAD</span>You look up at the beast and shake your head.
You: I-I uh, I don't know braille...sorry...p-please don't eat me...
The creature looks back down at you and makes another clicking noise, before jumping up into the air and crashing back into the sand, burrowing beneath and leaving you once again, all alone in the desert.
[[Time to venture on alone again... ->rektrans]]Luckily, you actually know braille from back on Earth! You take a look at the paper and make out the following:
//Hello, my name is Sai Reck, I am blind.//
You: Oh...huh...n-nice to meet you Sai Rek...can you hear me?
Sai pulls out another peice of paper from the sands and hands it to you.
//Yes, I am not deaf I am blind.//
You: Oh, right right, sorry...Oh! I'm $name!
Another paper.
//Pleasure to meet you $name//
[[Wait how are you making these papers so fast ->rekq]]
[[How do you survive out here being blind?? ->rek2]]
[[*Smirk* So, what dat tongue do tho? ->rektongue]]Another paper.
//Do not ask questions you don't want to know the answers to, small human//
You: UHHH..right, right, ok...
//Come, follow me//
[[Follow Sai Reck ->rek3]]
[[Wait, are you a boy or a girl? ->rekbruh]]Another paper.
//Being blind is beneficial. I use echolocative sonar to sense my prey shifting through the sands. There is no need for eyes.//
You: Uhhh...ok! Well!
[[A-are you going to eat me? ->rekq2]]
[[Well, I'd love to be your prey ;) ;) ->bruh2]]Sai growls and clicks at you.
[[Heyyy I'm just curious! Like...how does your species reprodouce? ;) ->rekbruh]]
[[Sorry! ->reksorry]]You nod to her.
You: Sure, I'll follow you. Where are we going?
Sai looks down at you and clicks.
She suddenly picks you up with her bulky claws and drags you, screaming, underground into the sand.
You vision is blinded by the sand as you feel yourself being quickly ferried through the ground.
Finally, you pop up and collapse on the ground as you are dropped from Sai's grasp.
You: WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR?!?!
[[Wait, where even am I? ->rekcave1]]//All of my species are female. We have no need to reproduce, because we are effectively immortal. We only become stronger as we devour more mortal beings, and they only make us more powerful//
[[So...are you going to eat me? ->rekq2]]Sai clicks at you, and then hands you another paper.
//Follow me. You are not safe here//
[[Uh...no thanks... ->yastrans]]
[[Follow Sai ->rek3]]
Sai looks down at you and clicks.
She suddenly picks you up with her bulky claws and drags you, screaming, underground into the sand.
You vision is blinded by the sand as you feel yourself being quickly ferried through the ground.
Finally, you pop up and collapse on the ground as you are dropped from Sai's grasp.
You: WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR?!?!
[[Wait, where even am I? ->rekcave1]]
//Very well//
And the moment you finish reading that paper, you realize that Sai has already wrapped her tongue around you, and all you can do now is watch as your body is pulled into her fearsome jaws.
<span style="color: red;">DEAD</span><<cacheaudio "bgmusic" "Music/bgmusicLoL.mp3">>
<<masteraudio volume 1>>
[[Start ->intro1]]
You: Listen...Sai...I think I'm better off alone than I am with you...
Sai clicks at you, in a confused and irritated way. Not that you could really tell the difference between a normal click and an irritated one.
You: Look, I'm just afraid that, I dunno, you're going to eat me! And honestly, I'm not into that. We can't have a relationship that has an undertone of possible murder!
Sai growls at you, snapping her jaws.
You: See! Like that! Every time we get into an argument, what can I say! I just have to agree with you or else you're going to literally devour me! It's not a healthy foundation. I'm sorry.
[[Suddenly, from out of nowhere, comes... ->yastrans2]]Suddenly, a man with a large ponytail, and a katana by his hip, dashes in between you and Sai. He looks like what you on Earth would have called "An Edgelord."
The man looks at you, and speaks with an edgy, deep voice.
Edgelord: Wow, you are the most stunning being I have ever seen.
He gestures to Sai.
Edgelord: Hey, is this thing bothering you?
[[Uh...no, no she's not. We're just going through some things. ->rekeat]]
[[Yes! As a matter of fact, she is! ->yaswhiteknight]]The man shakes his head in an edgy way.
Edgelord: There's no need to defend this beast, I will save you from it!
He turns to Sai and unsheathes his katana, brandishing it at her.
Edgelord: Engard, foul creature! Do not come any closer to my love!
Sai roars at the edgelord man and pounces on him, sinking her fangs into his flesh and tearing him limb from limb. You shak your head.
You: Sai! You can't just kill anyone who tries to white knight for me!
Sai grumbles and clicks as she continues feasting on the edgelord's corpse.
You: Ugh, you know what? That's it! I'm going to find my way back to the city. We're done!
And with that, you storm off into the desert once more, leaving the blind monster Sai Reck to her dinner.
[[Back into the desert... ->rekending3]]The man nods.
Edgelord: Say no more, my love. I will take care of this foul beast for you.
He turns to Sai and unsheathes his katana, brandishing it towards her.
Edgelord: Engard, disgusting creature! Leave my love alone!
Sai roars at the man, but then turns to you and makes another clicking sound. Finally, she burrows back into the sand and tunnels away into the distance.
The man turns back towards you and bows.
Edgelord: I am eternally grateful that you allowed me to assist you. Please, allow me to introduce myself. I go by many names...but you can call me NightStalker. And you are?
[[Uhh... ->backcity]]
[[So charming! ->yasrepay]]You: Uhh...I am going to find my way back to Piltunder...
NightStalker: Yes! Of course, I'll accompany you. Let us go!
And with that, the two of you set off to your original destination.
[[Off to find Piltunder! ->yasending1]]As you head deeper into the forest surrounded by trees and shrubs. You look up and see a figure hanging off a vine.
[[Approach the figure ->ezappr]]
[[Stay where you are... ->ezstay]]You carefully walk up and peer at the figure.
Upon closer inspection it seems to be another human! Not a moment passed, when the figure suddenly jumps down from the tree and lands right in front of you. It was a soft looking blonde guy. He had a charming smile as he began to speak.
Guy: Hey, who are you? Never seen you around here before!
You jump in surprise and quickly respond back
You: Oh ummm I’m $name. I’m new around here!
Guy: Oh nice to meet you $name! I’m Twinkie.
What a suitable name!
You: I’m trying to head to the city, do you know the way?
Twinkie thinks for a moment.
Twinkie: Hmmm, sure! But, you have to help me with something first.
[[Ok! ->ezhelp]]
[[Uh, no thanks... ->ezleave1]]You decide to stay back for safety reasons. However, the figure seems to spot you immediately, and swings down to the floor!
It was a soft looking blonde guy. He had a charming smile as he began to speak.
Guy: Hey, who are you? Never seen you around here before!
You jump in surprise and quickly respond back
You: Oh ummm I’m $name. I’m new around here!
Guy: Oh nice to meet you $name! I’m Twinkie.
What a suitable name!
You: I’m trying to head to the city, do you know the way?
Twinkie thinks for a moment.
Twinkie: Hmmm, sure! But, you have to help me with something first.
[[Ok! ->ezhelp]]
[[Uh, no thanks... ->ezleave1]]Twinkie smiles and reaches his hand out to shake yours. You reach out as he pulls you towards him into his arms.
Twinkie: Hold on tight!
Suddenly with a flash of light the two of you are up on the tree. You look down at the ground completely disoriented with what just happened.
Twinkie: Can you see that cave? That’s where we need to go. I heard a rumor that an old relic is being hidden there and I want to find it.
You look where he’s pointing and barely make out a small entrance into a tunnel... you wonder to yourself what you've gotten yourself into.
[[Twinkie: Alright we gotta hurry! ->adv1]]You: Uh...no thanks, I'd rather just get to the city as soon as I can.
Twinkie: Oh..alright then! Well I hope to see you around...
He looks you up and down, winks at you, and then suddenly disappears in a flash of light.
[[Back into the forest... ->tahm1]]Clearly familiar with the forest, Twinkie jumps from tree to tree heading towards the direction of the cave.
You attempt to follow but are soon worn out, as your life in the city has not prepared you for very much athletic activity.
[[Stop where you are ->ezstop]]
[[Jump to the next tree ->jumpdie]]Seeing you slowing down and breathing heavily, Twinkie stops.
He jumps back to you and puts a hand on your shoulder.
Twinkie: You Good? Alright since we’re short on time I’m just gonna carry you.
He then sweeps you off your feet and picks you up in a princess carry.
You: WHAT ARE YOU DOING??!?!
[[Ask him to put you down ->putdown]]
[[Say nothing ->ezcarry]]You take a deep breath and leap to the next tree.
You didn't get very far at all, falling short about 5 feet from the target branch, and you successfully plummet to the ground, snapping your neck on landing and instatnly dying.
<span style="color: red;">DEAD</span>Your face turns bright red in embarrassment as you cup your face.
You: Put me down!!!
Twinkie shakes his head.
Twinkie: This will be over soon! Don't worry!
With you in his arms, he casually blinks from tree to tree reaching the cave in just a few minutes.
He puts you down at the cave entrance. You look inside, and all you can see is black darkness.
Twinkie: Ready to venture in?!
[[Uhh...that's too scary... ->tahmtrans]]
[[I'm right behind you! ->ezcave]]
[[Follow me! ->cavedie1]]With you in his arms, he casually blinks from tree to tree reaching the cave in just a few minutes.
He puts you down at the cave entrance. You look inside, and all you can see is black darkness.
Twinkie: Ready to venture in?!
[[Uhh...that's too scary... ->tahmtrans]]
[[I'm right behind you! ->ezcave]]
[[Follow me! ->cavedie1]]You shake your head and decide to wimp out. You turn around and start walking back into the forest.
Twinkie throws a rock at your head.
Twinkie: Hey where are you going! You gotta help me dummy or else I’m not taking you into the city!
[[Ugh...fine, but you're going in first... ->ezcave]]
[[Back into the forest I go! ->tahmtrans2]] He smiles at you and enters the cave.
Twinkie: Step carefully, there may be traps around here. You walk in first, since you must protect your new friend.
Twinkie grabs your arm and pulls you backwards.
Twinkie: Woah! Be careful! There might be traps around here. Huh, you're not an adventurer, are you...no matter! Stay behind me.You continue deeper into the forest and finally come upon a river.
There, you see something hovering above the water...suddenly, a giant fish rises from the river. He approaches you and you stand in stupor as you’ve never seen a catfish that massive.
The catfish looks at you with a piercing gaze, and spoke in a thick, New Orleans accent.
Catfish: Who are you, and why are you in my territory?
[[I'm sorry, did you say the catfish SPOKE??!?! ->tahm2]]
You flip off the blonde boy, you’re gonna work on your own terms. And your terms are to not step foot in that dark, ominous, scary cave.
[[After more walking through the thick shrubbery... ->tahm1]] You snap back to reality as you think, what the fuck, did a catfish just talk to me?!
You stumble to regain your composure as you stare at the figure looming over you. You noticed more details about this creature that really surprised you...never in your life have you seen a fish wearing a top hat and a suit jacket.
[[Scream in terror and run away ->tahmeat]]
[[Clear your throat and introduce yourself ->tahm3]]
You scream, make a 180, and bolt for your life.
Before you even make it more than a few feet, a large, warm, thick tongue wraps around your waist!
Catfish: Now now, I don't take kindly to strangers in my territory!
His tongue slowly starts to pull you into his gaping maw, truly the largest mouth you've ever seen in your life.
Catfish: I am Froggie, the babbling brook king, you will remember my name! Though, not for much longer.
Finally, his tongue snaps back into his mouth, pulling you along with it...and you are completely devoured whole.
<span style="color: red;">DEAD</span>You: Hello! I’m $name, I’m trying to find my way to Piltunder.
The catfish strokes his chin.
Catfish: I see...the name's Froggie, and I am the Babbling Brook King. Say, would you like to play a game? If ya win, I'll get you back to the city. If ya lose...well...
He gives you a wide grin with his huge mouth. You flinch as you sense sinister intentions.
[[Game on, fishman ->tahmgame]]
[[UM, MAYBE HOW ABOUT NO ->citytrans]]
Double-click this passage to edit it.You nervously chuckle, and shake your head.
You: Uhh...no thanks! I-I think I'll find my own way to the city...but I'm sure your game would have been fun!
Froggie: Hmph, alright then darlin, but I'll warn you, the forest ain't no place for a pretty thing like you...
You regain your composure and take a look at your surroundings. It looks like Sai has brought you into some kind of cave. The air and sand in here is actually much cooler than it was outside. Cooler as in colder. You can't tell any difference in terms of style and popularity.
You turn to Sai.
You: Is this your home?
Sai clicks and nods her head.
[[Man, its really dark in here, how can you see? ->rekblind]]
[[Its quite cozy in here! ->rekcozy]]You: Man, its really dark in here, how can you see?
You freeze as you realize what you just said.
Sai turns to you and growls, baring her fangs.
You: Sorry! Sorry! I forgot...
She clicks and gestures to one of the cave walls.
[[Take a look at the wall. ->rekstory3]]
[[Screw this, I don't want to die again! ->rekleave1]]Sai clicks at you and settles against a large rock against one of the cave walls. She gestures to the sand next to her.
You: Oh, you want me to sit there?
[[Sit there! ->rekstory1]]
[[Screw this, I'm out. ->rekleave1]]You snuggle up with Sai and get comfortable, and she wraps her plated tail around you. It may not be a blanket, but you feel safe and protected.
Sai growls and clicks, and points to the cave wall next to you.
[[Take a look at the wall ->rekstory2]]You: You know what! I changed my mind. I am not into being friends, or whatever we are, with a giant blind monster who could kill me at any moment. I don't feel safe! That makes this a very unhealthy relationship.
Sai bares her fangs at you and clicks.
You: See?! That's what I mean! And, how can we communicate properly if all you can do is click and growl at me?!
You turn around to walk out on Sai Reck.
You failed to realize that you had just been incredibly insensitive to Sai's disability. Even though she doesn't feel uncomfortable being blind, using it as a reason to not be with her was disgusting on your part.
And unfortunately, you didn't get a chance to realize and repent, because as soon as you turned your back, Sai roared as she pounced on you, ripping you to shreds and devouring you for being so rude.
<span style="color: red;">DEAD</span>You take a look at the wall, and see carvings depicting a creature who looks like Sai, devouring what looks to be humans.
You glance up to Sai.
You: Uh...are you eating those humans?
Sai quietly grumbles and clicks, and gestures again to the wall.
You look back and see there is more to the carvings. As far as you can make out, Sai and other creatures who look like her were coming through a portal.
You: You're from another world?
You chuckle
You: I am too! Guess we're not so different, giant plating and claws and fangs aside. Hey, you're not going to eat me, are you?
Sai clicks softly and her tail wraps around your leg, before it begins slithering upwards.
[[Oh jeez, is that tail heading straight for my- ->rekending1]]Woah! Ok! Well that's all for this version...man, you work fast! Or is it Sai who's working fast?
In any case, the story lines will continue in the next update.
Can't wait to see what mysteries are uncovered! And what devious and steamy plans Angino and Manvo have in store...You take a look at the wall, and see carvings depicting a creature who looks like Sai, devouring what looks to be humans.

Sai simply clicks and burrows a little into the sand, resting her head on her tail.
You: Hm, I guess it must be around bedtime now...I hope Zoey doesn't get too worried.
You lay down in the sand next to Sai, and doze off to sleep...
[[The next day? ->rekending2]]Wow, you are sure not off to a great start with this lady. Wonder if she's going to eat you or if you two will end up fu-uuuhh in any case, the story lines will continue in the next update.
Can't wait to see what mysteries are uncovered! And what devious and steamy plans Angino and Manvo have in store...Wow, 2 potential suitors down, you really are quite picky! I wonder if this whole situation will come back to bite you in the ass? Not literally, one can hope. In any case, the story lines will continue in the next update.
Can't wait to see what mysteries are uncovered! And what devious and steamy plans Angino and Manvo have in store...Phew, what's worse, a ravenous monster or an edgy white knight simp? I'd say they're at least on par. In any case, the story lines will continue in the next update.
Can't wait to see what mysteries are uncovered! And what devious and steamy plans Angino and Manvo have in store...Suddenly, a blast of wind slices past you. You feel the bandit get swept off of you, but sand gets blasted in your face, and you start coughing, trying to wave it away.
By the time you clear your eyes, you realize that all the bandits are lying face down on the ground, and there is a man standing above them. The man had a large ponytail, and a katana by his side.
[[Wow! You saved me! How can I ever repay you? ;) ->yasrepay]]
[[Uhh, I had that situation under control, thank you very much... ->yaslol]]
[[I'M SO FED UP WITH THIS! ->takemetocity]]You: Not a chance!!
You summon some great strength and push the bandit off of you, before clocking them in the face. The bandit falls back into the sand and starts groaning.
You: Ha! Haha! Aha! Who's next!?
[[Leap at the nearest bandit ->banditdeath]]
[[Hold your position... ->yasarrives]]You hold your ground, and suddenly, a blast of wind slices past you. Sand gets blasted in your face, and you start coughing, trying to wave it away.

[[Uhh, I had that situation under control, thank you very much... ->yaslol]]
[[I'M SO FED UP WITH THIS! ->takemetocity]]With great courage, you leap at the nearest bandit hoping to take them out. Unfortunately, they were ready this time, and shot you in the face with their disgusting bandit gun.
Rip. Maybe you shouldn't have played hero.
<span style="color: red;">DEAD</span>You: Wow, thank you so much for the help...perhaps you need some repayment? I don't have money but perhaps...something else...
It seems your dehydrated state is causing you to lose your mind. Or maybe that's exactly like how you were on Earth.
The man bowed at you.
Sword Man: My love, I require no payment. It is but a wander's job to protect beautiful creatures such as yourself, no matter the cost. Please, let me be of service to you, my love.
[[Oh brother... ->ohbr]]
[[This simp is kinda cute... ->simpcute]]The man bowed at you.
Sword Man: Yes my love, you surely had that under control. But it is a wander's job to protect beautiful creatures such as yourself, no matter the cost. Please, let me be of service to you, my love.
[[Oh brother... ->ohbr]]
[[This simp is kinda cute... ->simpcute]]You: THAT'S IT!! I'M FED UP WITH THIS! I'VE BEEN LOST IN THE DESERT FOR THIS LONG, AND NOW ALL AT ONCE I MEET A BUNCH OF DISGUSTING RAPIST BANDITS, AND SOME WEIRD GUY WITH A SWORD IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE? NAH, I'M GOOD.
You: TAKE ME TO PILTUNDER, SWORD PONYTAIL MAN. I JUST WANT A HOT BATH AND SOME PEACE AND QUIET.
To your surprise, the man actually bowed at you.
Man: Yes, my love. But first, may I just say you are the most brilliant speciman I have ever had the chance to meet. I am at your service, I will give my life to take you to Piltunder.
[[Damn right! ->yascity]]
[[No thanks weirdo ->simp]]Great...as if you hadn't had to deal with enough of these back on Earth. I guess white knighting simps exist on all planes of existence.
[[Kill the man ->killyas]]
[[Ugh, just take me to Piltunder... ->taketocity]]You: Say, you're real cute! Heh, you say you're at service to me? Hell, who am I to deny you such a thing. A cute guy at my disposal, sounds like a win-win to me!
Ponytail Sand Man: Thank you my love. My leige. I am known as NightStalker, but you may of course call me whatever you desire.
[[Call him NightStalker ->ns]]
[[Call him Honey Bunches ->hb]]
[[Call him Baby Boy ->bb]]
[[Call him Dog ->d]]You: Damn right! Take me straight to Piltunder, and make it snappy! I am thirsty and hungry, and I need to just relax!
Ponyswordtail Man: Yes my love! Please, follow me, and I shall take you to where you desire! And please, call me NightStalker. Wait, what am I saying, you may call me whatever you desire, my love!
You: Yeah ok buddy, just lead the way..."NightStalker."
[[Follow NIGHTSTALKER to Piltunder ->yasending5]] You: Oh, hell no. We have people like you back where I'm from, there is NO way I am going anywhere with you. Goodbye! Go on! Shoo!
The man shakes his head and bows even lower.
Sword Ponytail Man: Of course! I am so sorry, my love. Please accept my most gracious apologies. I will be on my way, but worry not, I will be here to protect you if you need so.
[[Nah, don't trust it, gonna shoot him instead. ->shootyas]]
[[Ok. Thank you. Goodbye. ->yasbye]]You: Nope! Nope! I am not letting you follow me! No thanks!
You grab a gun from a nearby bandit, and fired it at the sword man.
Well, you pull the trigger. The gun backfired and the bullet shot backwards into your own chest. You immediately died.
Man, don't shoot people for no reason.
<span style="color: red;">DEAD</span>The sword man bows once more and walks off into the sand.
And you walk off in some arbitrary random direction, once again looking for this ever elusive Piltunder.
[[You're still dehydrated... ->yasending2]] Life gets saved, and you asked him to leave? Harsh. But maybe you saw something in him that you didn't trust. Who knows...
In any case, the story lines will continue in the next update.
Can't wait to see what mysteries are uncovered! And what devious and steamy plans Angino and Manvo have in store...You: Nope! Nope! I am not dealing with more of you. No thanks!

Well, you pull the trigger. The gun backfired and the bullet shot backwards into your own chest. You immediately died.
Man, don't shoot people for no reason.
<span style="color: red;">DEAD</span>Man: Yes, my love. Of course, let us venture forward. By the way, I am known as NightStalker. But please, a beauty such as you deserves to simply call me by whatever name you desire.
You: Uhh, I'll stick with NightStalker...I guess...
[[And off to the city you go! ->yasending3]] Sand and desert and simps, oh my! I wonder if you'll end up taking a liking to this NightStalker character. What a strange name...
In any case, the story lines will continue in the next update.
Can't wait to see what mysteries are uncovered! And what devious and steamy plans Angino and Manvo have in store...You: I'll stick with NightStalker. Very edgy name, I like it. So, NightStalker! Where are we going to next?
NightStalker: My love, it is up to you!
You: Hm, well I am quite thirsty...get me some water, NightStalker!
NightStalker: Yes! Wonderful! Let us venture on!
[[Off to find water! ->yasending4]]You: I'll call you Honey Bunches. Very sweet name, I like it. So, Honey Bunches! Where are we going to next?

Dog: Yes! Wonderful! Let us venture on!
[[Off to find water! ->yasending4]]Jeez, I'm not one to judge, but that is a weirdddd nickname. I wonder if it's going to affect your relationship in the future? Only time will tell.
In any case, the story lines will continue in the next update.
Can't wait to see what mysteries are uncovered! And what devious and steamy plans Angino and Manvo have in store...Huh, NightStalker. What an interesting nickname. I wonder what his real name is? In any case, the story lines will continue in the next update.
Can't wait to see what mysteries are uncovered! And what devious and steamy plans Angino and Manvo have in store...As you march on, you are suddenly tackled and pinned to the floor. You look up startled and staring back at you is a disgusting bandit, grinning with their disgusting bandit teeth, wearing a disgusting bandit hat. Disgusting.
Quickly scanning around, you also notice that there are MORE of them, walking closer to you.
You: HEY! GET OFF ME!!
Bandit #1: Not a chance, kid.
The bandits spoke in a British accent.
Bandit #2: Yeah, we're going to take all your belongings. Now hand 'em over mate.
Bandit #3: And after that, maybe we'll have a little more fun with you...
[[WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK ->yasuosave]]
[[Fuck these British sounding bandits, time to fight back! ->banditkill]]
