Pygmy: "Court case easier if all dead!"
Corve "I don't intend to wait until they come up with something. I have a daughter and friends on these islands. I'm not about to let some demon worshipping lunatics kill millions of people 'cause their god isn't important enough to the rest of us. We need to find them, and stop them."
Xar'Rex "Is there a reward?"
Corve finds the giant hot chicks very distracting, but tries to keep Jaks on a steady course.
Tonidra "Tonidra still think tiny little men cute. Other Bronze Hill women say tiny little men strange and ugly, but Tonidra think they just covering up secret interest."
Xar'Rex "Tonidra has two husbands?"
Tonidra "Tonidra has three, but is looking for more!"
Corve leads Jaks in line to follow the giant hot chick.
Corve looks at Xar, raising an eyebrow. "A really annoying idiot."
Xar'Rex "What does that have to do with...fucking...prick?"
Assistant Priest "Your time will come soon, when you may join with the gods as pure essence, and live on a higher plane."
Melody "You mean be thrown down a giant pit to my death."
Melody "But you know, this is really pointless. I'm sure the guards are going to arrive at any moment and slay you all messily."
Melody "That's what happened to my last would-be rescuers.
Corve "You're a perceptive sacrifice."
Melody "And then he died!"
Myrrh "We can get you out of here without the slightest bit of killing you."
Myrrh "Well we knocked out a assistant priest and stole their sacrificial victim from the tentacled behemoth and his wives and minions. You?"
Corve looks around, and can vaguely see Carmine's lips moving... he shakes his head and pokes at his ears. "I CAN'T HEAR YOU. I THINK IT DEAFENED ME!"
Face Eater looks between the members of the group. "Why your food talking?"
Myrrh "A crazy cannibal in the guts of a gigantic cursed monster...fantastic. Why is it this adventure doesn't involve ravishing high priestesses?"
Corve struggles against the falling wall, buckling under the weight and pulling Carmine near him, grunting against the weight. "FUCK. WE'RE BEING EATEN!"
Corve "Keeping people in this beast. What's the point of it? Why are you here?"
Man "It eats us, of course."
Corve sighs. "Must eat really slowly."
Man "Oh, we're not being eaten now."
Corve smiles and waves his rifle dismissively. "No, but I've been eaten by a gigantic monster, slashed up by a death-dealing pirate, made friends with a Dragon King, and seen the face of gods. Big bats are just a plus."
Xar "I cannot tell, but that is what mating is for."
Shine "Did your friends have any trouble with Deadly Tailor Onizumi?"
Xethlixocoatlculbialik "Oh, I think they are still recovering from the fact they finally look fashionable. I'm sure it was a huge shock to them."
Xethlixocoatlculbialik "Funny story, really. We were simply flying past, admiring the scenery when the we ran into the one called Myrrh - quite literally - using some kind of fascinating glider he'd created. I saved him from certain death, of course, and our relationship rather took off." he giggles a bit. "Oh, I kill me."
Xethlixocoatlculbialik "Weren't you telling me he was discouraging her from seeking personal growth?"
Shine "He was! Trying to keep her down in Creation just so he can have "rights" and be treated like a "person" or some such thing."
Xar`Rex picks up a small fungus-monster, glances sidelong at Myrrh, and munches on it surreptitiously
Small Critter squeals and makes pityable snuffling noises as Xar tries to eat it! Despite all the protesting and squealing, the small mossy being tastes pleasantly fruity, with a hint of mold.
Xar`Rex belches quietly.
Corve nods a little bit in thanks. "The whole 'holding the dragon over your head in victory' statue? Bit much," he says, grinning.
Sixth "Now that statue I *do* remember and I liked that one." He glowers at Corve, "Nothing wrong with being proud of doing something impressive as that. You know that was a Fetich Soul? You finish saving the world, then tell me you don't deserve a few tasteful statues."
Carmine glares at Sixth. "If you can't say anything constructive ... don't spank Corve!"
