The World

*Now at about half health, the golem attempts its tri-attack skill again.*
========================================
Thiera: I'll be fine, I think.

Euryale: Take one. You need money for new spells.

*She rests an arm on Thiera's shoulders & begins steering them out of the Gott Statue chamber.*

*Monudon runs around the golem and stabs again*

Noct produces a Sprite Ocarina, "We can get out of here quickly with this. I have two, for both parties."

Hector attacked the other ghost, stabbing at one of it's heads.

*He is actually hit 3 times, because he ran right into one of its punching fists.*
=========================================
*The ghost moans, & tries to bite him. The other one is advancing on him from behind.*

Zalera: No you don't! Rai Rom!

*A small tornado of electric discharge forms under the monster, freezing it in its tracks & blasting it repeatedly. While it's frozen, Cactus runs over & swings his axe down from his shoulder towards it. He misses, but the ground shakes from the impact & he quickly adjusts his stance & jabs one of the heads with the tip of the axe.*
=======================================
*Euryale presents Thiera with one of the Grunt Dolls.*

Euryale: That's very nice of you, but are you sure?

Hector was bitten and slashed the ghost three times in the head.

"It is only 50 gold, and I don't really want to walk back..." Noct said.

Euryale: Alright, then, we'll gladly accept the help. Are you sure you don't want me to trade you 50 GP for it?

*She holds out her hand for one of the Sprite Ocarina.*
=======================================
*Once. The other two times missed. The ghost sweeps around to his back to bite him again. The other one shakes around, causing black skulls to drop on Cactus, who swings upwards into it. Zalera figures he pretty much has that one, so he runs towards Hector.*

Hector attempted to evade this bite.

Noct shook her head, "No, it is fine." She hands it over.

*The dungeon music is replaced by the pair playing their ocarina tunes, & the sound of them warping out. That, in turn, is replaced by the soft, eerie melody of the jungle music, as they are warped back to the clearing where the cave entrance to the dungeon is.*
========================================
*Nope. Bit. Zalera then slashes it from behind with 4 electrified, jumping cuts. Two of them miss, but the two that do hit deal heavy damage, finishing the monster off. The one Cactus is attacking tries to escape, but he takes a running step & swings his axe into it sideways. It doesn't connect, but the monster is slowed down by having to dodge.*

Hector leaped after the slowed ghost and slashed it twice.

Noct gates back out to town. Mortab does as well.

2:00 PM

*The ghost turns grayscale, drifting to the ground as it lets out a final moan.*
========================================
*Since they're in parties, this means that everyone is Gated Out. Luna immediately walks down the stairs towards the Recorder.*

Euryale: Probably a good idea.

*Monudon drinks another health potion, then stabs at the central orb*

Noct and Mortab agree, and follow along. Noct is giggling to herself.

Hector rested his cutlass on his shoulder, "Well done."

Cactus: Yeah, but it's not enough to go up a level.
=======================================
*The golem falls apart, monochromatically.*
=======================================
Luna: What is so funny?

*Euryale & Thiera talk to the Recorder NPC, & are done quickly.*

"I made a movie joke on the forums," Noct said, "I usually try to stay off the forums, but the set up was a little too good to pass by." Mortab finishes up with the recorder as well.

"Then, let's keep going," Hector said, beginning to walk in the direction of the cocoon that he had seen earlier.

*Two pumpkins with faces near the base of the cocoon turn around. Zalera follows, but by the time they get there, Cactus is lagging a few feet behind either of them.*

<La Pumpkin! ...La Pumpkin!>
==================================
Luna: That's...great?

*Luna uses the Recorder next.*

Noct uses it as well, then continues talking to Luna, "Not really. It was kind of rude of me actually, but I thought it was a bit funny."

Hector pointed at one of the pumpkins with his cutlass and poked it.

Luna: If it was rude, then you shouldn't have said it.
=================================
Zalera: It's Grunty Food.

Noct shrugged, "It wasn't that rude. Like I said, it was just a joke. If he is a movie buff he probably laughed along."
