Recap Thread 3
The arena- and that's what it is, really- quiets as the last of the raider-phantoms bleed out of existence on the ground.
The only sounds outside of the slowly dying embers the enemies brought with them are the voices of your two smallest friends, still perched upon the skull adorning your rear.
"That'ssss how you met?"
"Well, that's how proper introductions happened, of course. It was formal."
"But you didn't go with her, then."
"No, that- That comes later."
You clear your throat, interrupting the storytellers behind you.
"Do you mind, yes? This is a dungeon."
Nin waves you off unconcernedly.
"Yes, yes. Don't worry, You can keep us safe."
"That is not really- It is a concern, yes, but it is not what I am talking about."
"Oh, were you listening along? I can be louder. It would be good practice."
"Please do not do that."
Doors creak around you, and you turn to face the mix of villages- Where what appears to be guards and villager and militia are slowly emerging in the false starlight.
You groan.
What kind of cheap encounter is this? You have to fight both sides of some ancient conflict?
Your spear sweeps the first phantom to rush you, a farmer flailing about with a two-tined pitchfork, hurling him to the ground as a crowd thunders towards you.
This is just lazy dungeoning.
"So, what happens next?"
"Well, lots. You know Lyra. It isn't one thing, it's seven. And six of them are monsters."
"I am right here, yes."
"Ahem. And so she returns, triumphant, to the village in the forest-"
