Your... admin? ... I mean, the guy who was responsible for maintaining our connection to you: He had a mental breakdown. I mean, when a god has a mental breakdown... it's not as bad as his @#$%ing shattered mind. His heart broke in eight places, and that makes about as much sense to us as it does to you. Long story short, it's been a weird year for our CF (aka YOUR) connection. We ended up resorting to skip a few decades as a compromise, so the channel would be rid of "plot decay". Looks like you survived that, though!

... So, about the current 'queen'. She seems cute for a mass-murdering sociopath. Quite responsive. Really liked the whole Sphinx thing she's got going. Far as I'm concerned, she has potential. But you're the client. It's your call. Who do you want on the throne?

Any ideas?

>>868716
Yeah, getting you some strength back first. We aren’t going to be able to dig or climb out of here with you so weak and malnourished.

JAILBREAK TIME!

Alright so first things first, we need find a way out of this cell. After we get a map of this place we can start making a plan. The easiest way to do this is to get someone to come check on us. How about you start screaming bloody murder hide beside the door and when a guard or whoever comes in we ambush him and bite/tear his throat out.

>>868716
Could we rip off the wings at the base and heal from there? Experimentation for later. Let's get the hell out of this place, it sucks here.

>>868719
The doors open inwards. And there’s a three door station inbetween. The cell is only tall enough to accommodate the door, and the gaurds here have exoskeletons. Even if I were to attempt it, they might rip off my arms and legs, and forget about getting strength back, the food here is poison and they don’t give it to me often enough to regain anything.
>>868727
I... actually could do that, it will be painful and bloody... but feasible. Maybe the guards will notice my screams, however... they’ll torch the wounds... oh no, that won’t work.

>>868735
If we are going to remove the wings then were gonna need to muffle your screams/bite down on... how about your shirt? Take it off and roll it up to gag yourself.

You don't need the whole thing, just break off the tips and use them as lockpicks / shivs.

>>868749
I hate to break this too you but based off the way his wings are mean to look, the actually membranes that they would be attached to would be attached to his back as well, kind of like bat wings... so if we want them to heal fully and get our wings back in their entirety we’re gonna have to pull the whole thing off.

Then forget that. We jailbreak some other way. Possibly by like.... Well, what's in the rest of the cell? Any place we can hide construction material?

Ragnar liked to talk about himself too much do something like that.

>>868812
You designed this room, but it requires well-informed security to maintain. And Narune likely switched up the staff when she took over.

Go over the staff protocols. Is there anything, any small detail, that they're not doing?

Also, what's that thing in the upper-left corner? A vent?

>>868813
It looks like a crack in the wall to me, if that is the case then we might have a chance, if there is cell next door then their cell might be escapable compared to ours.

Those are scratches. I made them. And how would that complicate things? Maybe she’s in hiding, obviously they wouldn’t be so terrible if she was still on the throne. Also, I’d need to skin my entire back to get my wings back completely. And that’s a lot of lost blood. I could pass out and then the guards may check on me, see me regenerate, and chop off my arms to prevent me from doing it again! I like my arms! They’ve served me well!

>>868839
Hmm... Alright then.

So then what about something of a bait and switch? We do the screaming for help idea next to the door but when he comes in we are already by the door and run out and shut it trapping the guard?

Wait, you have a BEARD. Important question: when you designed this cell so your insanity wouldn't kill anyone, did you design it to hold you for a FEW years or five decades? Because something might have eroded by now.

What are the properties of demon beard hair? Can you make something out of it?

I have an idea. A stupid, crippling idea, but we're almost out of valid options. You have fire breath, and you can cauterize parts of your body so they won't regenerate. Does that include your fingers? Because I'm thinking: You mutilate your hand into a bunch of jagged bones, and then cauterize your whole hand so it's now unable to heal from the painful, SHARP bone-fingers. Or your tail, if that's possible. Then you wait for your next meal and aim for an unarmored area while you're reaching for the tray.

That would be... idiotic. The trays are slid under the slit in the door. Like I said, escape is impossible from within.

>>868962
Then we clearly need a new plan. Try scratching a hole in the wall by the door. Since they're only delivering trays through the slot, they don't come in and cannot see your excavations.

It'll take a few years, but your claws can carve through this stone. Therefore, keep digging.

What about the trays themselves? Have you tried using fire breath on them to see what happens? If your food has poisonous chemicals, it might induce special properties when lit on fire.

YOU MUST RESTORE BALANCE IF THIS WORLD IS TO SURVIVE!

Now, get up and fight for the ones you love!

FUCK this.

Let's assume, for five fucking seconds, that it's impossible for you to leave IF the guards aren't stoned. We forgot something REALLY important:

WE can leave. We're your link to the world of the fucked and the damned.

We established a connection with Narune, and she likes us. She didn't even seem to mind our pervy attitude. We can help with her battle plans, and slowly influence her personality as we gain her trust through pleasure and profit. That includes finding excuses to distract your guards or let YOU out. At the very least, we can pass clear-cut messages from you to her, and inform you on the current situation.

So how about it? Ever wanted to know what it's like to be an Adviser like us?

“Ah, hello there~ You’ve caught me right when I was about to get out of the bath! Shame on you~ Pleasantries aside, what do you need?”

We were checking around for other connections. Dedrin's the only one still around, so I guess all his friends are dead. He's ALMOST at the breaking point - do you know what he means by "the buffalo that is always flying behind" because he said he was going to eat whatever the hell that means. Just a few more months and you can let him out.

Seriously. When you're done breaking him, let him out. He misses you. AND more importantly he has all the intel files you need to find all those secret passageways and hidden weapons laboratories in your castle! We tried to grill him but he just started deadpan honking - that's trollspeak for "hate hate hate kill kill funny".

Back to business, then: give us something to do. Go on a quest or lend us to one of your minions to do stuff. Our aptitude is in surface technology, not arcane abilities, so the more we work with other mages the better we'll (barely) understand your powers and how to apply them.

We don't know many people on the plains period. And your restriction to prevent us from gathering information and classified intel about the world you plan to conquer so we can devise an actual strategy to accomplish this, which is our only @#$%ing job, puts you near the bottom of that short list. Help us see the world and we'll start adding some names and general population IQ averages, which should be about ~50 points lower than yours.

>I am ONLY letting him out when the Usurpers are entombed in demonsteel!
Or dead. Or banished to another dimension. Or 'dealt with' nonlethally by means which are complex but sadistic and artistic. We could go with that.

>My minions will never get their grubby mitts on something as influential as YOU!
Even if we can spy on their activities at anytime from anywhere for any reason with access to their private thoughts and emotions?

Bouncing around minions has its benefits. Our communications can break the sound barrier and use secure encryption protocols to prevent spies from codebreaking your secret messages. That means you can give orders from the safety of the castle to a commander in the middle of a battle.

Just think about it. Now, what's on the menu for today? Public floggings? Castle raids? Or just lunch with lesbians?

Murphy's Law

noun
1.
the facetious proposition that if something can go wrong, it will.

>>877989
.... that’s not ominous at all...

Alright, what happened?

Seriously need to rein in a bigger fanbase with shameless fanservice and stuff...

Also how screwed are we.

We have to find a way out. Knowing Ragnar, his ego’s tougher than stoneback hide, and I can cut him with Usagi-no-ha, but Lazarus heals him almost instantly. You guys have any bright ideas?

>>883532
Crazy idea but you don’t actually have to kill him. But you do need to get past him in order to escape. Aim for areas that fast healing or no will buy you some time such as eyes or tendons that will cripple him for a second.

>>883541
Greetings Eto, I must make this brief. Ragnar loves to show his superiority, challenge him to trial by combat. You’ll be able to buy some time during the duel.

I told Ragnar to use scorch-and-surround tactics, but now that I think about it that doesn't involve a vertical getaway. With the excessive numbers and slow supply lines, you could make a quick getaway if you're creative and prepared.

Can you tunnel, fly, or portal out? Doesn't matter if it's infeasible, anything to stall a dive into the meat grinder.

“RAGNAR!”
“AH, MATASUKI! I WAS BEGINNING TO THINK YOU HAD RESIGNED TO YOUR FATE!”
“I evoke the rite of single combat!”
“WHAT?”
“I challenge you, You weak livered sea scum!”
Okay, He’s listening.
“VERY WELL, FOOL. WHAT ARE YOUR TERMS?”
“Melee only. No magic bolts or outside interference.”
“IF THE CROWN WINS?”
“You can arrest the lot of us, but if the rebellion wins, you must release the old king to us.”
“... WE ACCEPT.”
“Very well. Your weapon choice?”
“I WILL GRANT YOU A MERCY ETO. YOU HAVE LIVED YOUR LIFE BY THE SWORD, SO I WILL ALLOW YOU TO BE DESTROYED BY IT.”
Real stand up guy.

>>885833
Alright! Now we’re cooking with Gas! Any idea how fast Ragnar is? I suspect he is stronger than you and as you stated he has a really amazing healing factor. Is it possible to cut him up and be so fast his healing factor can’t match?

... Well, it was nice knowing you, Mr. Jump-Into-Quantum-Waste-And-Accidentally-Screw-Over-The-World. You got a bomb strapped to your chest or something?

I think what we are looking at is something akin to Ragnars real form... try to look past it. Or rather sense where he really is. Sectionate your view, don’t see everything at once only see what you need to win.
