[Memo: Open to All] ==> Zurahe: Talk about your Sweet Loot

[soundtricks]

You're planning to do just that.


-- blackoutEtude [BE] RIGHT NOW opened memo GATECRASHING --


Right then, so I guess I'm going to be the first one to make a proper fuckin' progress report.

Yay. Me.



You are not at all, in fact, enthused to be the first to do so- but considering the estimation most of these jerks seem to have of you, you ARE kind of FUCKING SMUG about it. You're not, however, pleased to be doing this with the stupid VOICEBOX on, but you sincerely doubt any of them know ASL anyway.

You make it a point to look as bored as possible though, and scowl a little as you try and remember the points you were going to make. Thankfully, it doesn't take long.

Dunno what the fucking problem was before I gatejumped, but I had to deal with every kind of fucking imp I'd beaten down on my way in. Some of the fuckers even followed me through.

Considerin' I wound up in my Denizen's chamber, according to my 'consorts' or whatever, that coulda gotten a mite nasty.

Weren't nothing there to fight though, so I got lucky- but it seems like that's a problem. Turns out that big bad Boss Monster's kinda important to these little things. So I guess I gotta go lookin' for it and bring it back.

Fun fact though- did y' know Denizens are what you get your ultimate weapon from?

You equip BRAHMASIRSHA and VAISHNAVASTRA,one arm silver and flowering, the other golden and seemingly overrun with vines.



Cause I sure do. And let me tell ya, these babies ain't lacking in power. Equippable at all levels too- guess they figure if you can earn 'em, then use 'em.

Got a buncha grist and a gem to power those babies up too, and it looks like I was supposed to find the rest beforehand, so I'm gonna get to that as soon as I alchemize some new clothes. This stuff the little dudes gave me's comfy, but ain't running 'round like this on the battlefield.

You unequip your RAD LOOT and lean forward, hands on your ankles, a smirk sliding onto your face.


So- how've the rest of you been doin' with makin' progress?

You pause there, considering, and then add- as quickly as possible-

By the way, looks like we lost Hapara. Can't find hide or hair of the idiot.

'Nother one bites the dust, I suppose.


Video: End.

That's kind of what I thought
but I guess they're not so much 'end game' as part of some important decision
either way, you get to 'em when you're supposed to, and not any sooner
but then that still don't explain where the fuck it went

Figuring out what the hell is wrong with this other team's version of the game is fascinating and all, but there's far more urgent, more important questions to ask right now...

So, how much have you tested your new loot out? ~~CS

[soundtricks]

not a lot
I've been kind of busy with the fuzzy dudes wanting to tell me ALL THE THINGS
and giving me ALL THE QUESTS
so yeah, fighting's been kind of minimal for the moment

[callouslystalwart]

A shame. ~~CS
~I'd~ quite like to see them in action... ~~CS
But your consorts are still willing to give you quests regardless of your current situation? ~~CS
What kinds? ~~CS

[soundtricks]

what are you expecting
a live videofeed from the fucking battlefield or something♫
not likely

and the usual, duh
fetch quests, mostly
I'm saving all the ones where I beat up imps for last unless they involve saving someone

[callouslystalwart]

You're not going to double up the defeat quests? ~~CS
Surely you could complete the "Defeat X Imps of Y type" sort almost incidentally while focusing on others! ~~CS

[soundtricks]

I'd rather just do all my fighting at once if I can
everything else usually takes me way longer
