"Is it rude for me if I ask for your age?"
"Of course not! I'm 19 years old. This is what we call our 'budding age', and we are supposed to have our lifetime partner later on."
"What do you mean by 'All tucked up in bed by the darkest of rooms'"
"Ahh, my apologies! I seem to have forgotten that you don't know much about us Tonberries. As we live in caves and such, rooms are very dimly-lit, if not completely dark. It is just natural for us to sleep in a dark room."
"Where is home for you?"
"It's in Alcardia, silly! It will always be my home."

... Uhh, I don't know about the fourth question. I'm not hitting on her or anything!

I'll have to admit: she does seem to be a very nice person to be with... But my mind's still far away from being affectionate towards her.

"So uhh, how's your mom?"
"She died a year ago..."

>>130027
You'd best apologize for possibly bringing up bad memories. Maybe ask her what her mom was like, instead? Like, happy memories and stuff.

Hey, asking if she has someone waiting for her back home isn't hitting at her, it's showing an interest in her life as well as gaining information for yourself. Anyway, ask her what she meant by the shining light up by the ceiling. I mean, it's supposed to be dark, right?

Hand to shoulder. Say you're sorry. Change the subject, ask about her crown. Ancillarily, how does it stay on?

"... I'm sorry."
"Ahh! No, I apologize for bringing a personal matter up! It... It's not my intention to induce sympathy-"

Nocitome: "Excuse me? Someone would like to have her injuries healed."
Gazzene: "... Looks like it's time to help."

... Damnit. I screwed this up. I made her feel bad.

... Why does that make me feel bad as well?

Wait, before she goes, hug her. HURRY!

Because, even if it's not in a romantic way, you do like her. You're in this whole adventure thing together and it's good to be on friendly terms with each other. Why don't you tell her a bit more about yourself, Murdelp? But try to stay on happy subjects.

Probably because your a polite person that cares about people. You know, you're not psychotic?

>>130035
Yeah, hug the FUCK out of her and say that you want to get to know her better.

'Cause it's nice to learn more about your companions and maybe she's kind of cute and stuff if you're into tonberries

Hug her. Very much.

She is pretty cute Murdelp~

I finally muster up the courage to hold her. I stand up and quickly wrap my arms around her. Gazzene is obviously in shock.

"I'm sorry I made you feel sad... I just want you to share your pain with me. I, too, lost someone close to me... I know how it feels to experience the loss of someone related to you."

Gazzene does not respond.

"Gazzene..."

Let her go, follow up with a joke.

Um. Alright, good, I suppose. But you should definitely be the one to retreat from the embrace first. To show that your intent was to comfort her and not for some ulterior motive. Don't try to hide it if you're embarrassed... You're just trying to be her friend. Now it's up to you whether or not you'd rather stay with her while she works and talk a bit about yourself (HAPPY THOUGHTS), or if you'd rather check up on Gezzono while she's occupied.

After saying all those things to her, that might emphasize a wrong intention.

>>130067

So Gazzene might take this the wrong way? I don't intend to-

"Oh, Murdelp. You really have a heart of gold."
"Where did you hear that?"
"From Lady Sanya herself. You really care for your friends."

... At least I'm safe.

I think I'd like to stay around with her a little longer. Can't risk having us dispersed in this town while Sanya's out.

"That's what friends do" perhaps? Now then, get your purplenesses to the infirmary and let's see what's happening.

>>130071
Don't mention the word "friend".

Head first. You need her awake to tell you what happened and if you need to punch a bitch.

I would so take advantage of this situation in a sexual way.

>>130086

well, get to it I guess...

>>130086
Not sure if Gazzene can hear this, but if her healing is location-based.. head first, then check for internal injuries, then her hip, then her arm.

...Bwa ha ha ha! ...excuse me for that. Private joke.

Anyway, get to it. Personally I think you should leave her to the professional (Gazzene) while you go make sure the rest of your party (Gezzono) is safe. I'm sure Gazzene will also be able to focus better if she were sure about her brother.

"What happened, Amina?!"
Amina: "B-B-Bite... Lady Sanya..."
Gazzene: "No, Murdelp! Don't force a wounded person to waste energy talking! Sorry Amina, but you'll have to conserve whatever strength you still have."

>>130130

Amina's really wounded here! I mean, Gezzono may be blind, but Amina's losing blood here! I know how to set up priorities, and something like this is more severe than checking up for someone's blindness.

>>130127

I check the head. There seems to be a huge but shallow cut on it. Something sharp, perhaps?

There's no sign of anything left on the wound, so I get some cloth and a bucket of water to clean it up.

Gazzene is a bit troubled. Is she worried about Amina, or something else?

Ask if she has an idea of what did this. Get some bandages.

>>131678
Gazzene is worried about Sanya, because Bite did this to Amina. However, we already know that Sanya wins the fight against Bite.

The person we should really be worried about is Gezzono. Something Bite said to Sanya as he confronted her outside the inn could be interpreted in two ways: Either he thinks he killed Gezzono, or he was talking about when he killed Gezzono's wife.

If you think Gazzene can handle it here, you may want to head over to the inn to make sure Gezzono doesn't need a stretcher.

"You know what happened to Amina, Gazzene?"
"I'm not sure. She looks like she was attacked by an animal or something, though I'd have expect a more severe condition if that was the case. It looked like whoever attacked her just stopped in the middle of it."

>>131692
"... Gazzene. Are you worried about someone else?"
"Yes... I am concerned about Lady Sanya's whereabouts and status so I can know what exactly happened to Amina... But I'm also worried about my own brother. I am not jumping into hasty chances, but there is a probability that someone's been following us. Gezzono could be in trouble as we speak."
"Please, could you check up on him? I am terribly nervous..."

Gazzene's a bit shaky. I guess I should go to the Inn, but should I say something to her before I do that?

Tell her you'll protect her brother, where's your bow? Also ask her if she'll be okay by herself while you go.

Oh hey, Gazzene. Something you may or may not know.

Got any honey? There's an ancient group of people called the Egyptians that we know of, which used Honey on wounds because it's apparently a very good disinfectant, and promotes healing. Don't know exactly why, but right now Amina needs all the help she can get.

>>131721
Tell her Sanya will be fine. The Wisdom Stone knows this, because we are with her right now. Or we will be. I'm not sure. It's hard to say. TIME IS WEIRD.

>>131727
It's because bacteria can't survive in honey. This is also why it can last thousands of years without spoiling.

I left my bow in the room when we signed in at the Inn.

"Don't worry, Gazzene. I'll do my best to protect your brother. He's my friend, after all."

Gazzene lets out a doubtful sigh, but nods eventually.

"... If you can find any honey, use it on the wounds. I heard they heal the wounds well."

I go outside and quickly notice it's sunset. Wow, time must've gone fast when we were at the clothing store.

... That catboy's by the front of the Inn. He looks worried as well. He sees me.

"Where is white cat? Is she okay?"

>>131753
Tell him that she fainted. Ask him if he can help bring Amina back to the inn.

Ask him if he's seen Sanya.

>>131753
Don't let your guard down. Bite is probably not trustworthy. Tell him "She's going to make it." Don't tell him where Amina is. Ask him who attacked her, and if Gezzono is okay.

...so, Sanya hasn't gotten here yet. We don't know what's going to happen right now.

Not to be distrusting, but I was under the assumption that Bite attacked Amina. I don't have my weapons with me, so I'd better be on high alert around here.

"She's fine. Gazzene's tending to her wounds."

We enter the Inn and are greeted by a serious-looking Lenk. Gezzono is beside him with bandage wrapped around his eyes.

"Just in time, catboy. We... need to talk."

He looks at me. "Kobold-kun, we're going to borrow your room for a moment, okay? It might be best that you listen in on what I'll have to say."

First things first, ask for a bow. Then do what he says.

"... It appears this might be the oooooooooooooonly time Bite can finally break free from his own cuuuuuuuuuuuurse."

...Go upstairs. Seriously though, get a bow.

Yeah, okay, let's do it.

Murdelp, you have absolutely no need to worry for Sanya. We know for a fact that she'll be fine. However, this seems important, something we should be party to.

We retreat to our room. I grab my bow and quiver, just in case. Still, the atmosphere has not changed much.

Lenk seems to be reading a book. Is he checking up something?

Bite and Gezzono sit by the bed.

Hey Murdelp, are you at all proficient with any other weapon than the bow? It'd be nice if you had something close range, even if it were a knife. Anyway, I suppose you should break the silence and ask "So what is it that needs all of us, here?"

Sorry, I'm only good at ranged weaponry. It's what I use to defend against any invaders. My small frame and my ocassional clumsiness does not allow me to even use knives.

Lenk closes the book and looks at Bite.

Lenk: "First things first, catboy. How is the Talyxian doing?"
Bite: "She's hurt! I shout help, and strange armless thingy told me to go to Pharmacy! Said I should look for building with red cross thingy on it!"
Lenk: "... Do you know who did those things to her?"

Bite: "No!"
Lenk: "... That's because... of your other half. He tried to kill her."
Bite: "... Other half? Why you know this?!"

*cue dramatic music* Well that about clinches it. Bite's really got two personalities, more or less. His rather simple but ultimately beneficent side and the side the retains its intellect and memory. Memory of orders against your group. However you must trust us, Bite will not be held here. It is foretold. If you attempt to fight him or otherwise detain him, he will somehow escape and might hurt some of you in the process. For now all we can do is listen, and wonder how exactly Lenk and Gezzono came to have this information.

I wonder... are we advising them too, but aren't aware of it?

"Are you implying that Bite has a split personality?"

Lenk: "Not quite. What I saw in the catboy's vision was something different."
"It seemed like he actually has two halves of his own soul. One kept him sentient with the conscience of a human, and the other tried to reawaken his animalistic instincts."
"... For some reason, the catboy was too tired. He fell asleep when he was inside the castle."
"... That's when his animalistic side struck in."

Lenk: "Yes, that is the case when my target is asleep. However, in the catboy's case, the only things sleeping were his mind and his conscience."
"... His body immediately woke up afterwards. In my view, it looked like the catboy just closed his eyes for a few minutes..."
"... He stood up and looked for Sanya, but did not find her. In frustration, he went after Amina, who just so happened to be in the room."
"I don't want to describe in details the fight between Amina and Bite, but it was executed so fast... I think one of Amina's weakened punches woke the catboy's mind up, but I can't really tell exactly when he got control of himself."

Well that's mean. I'm really unsure what exactly is going on with that kid, as I believe I've seen both sides of his soul, but neither side seemed particularly malicious... Still, to attack an ally out of frustration? This is madness.

Gezzono: "Yes. The same one who made me into a candidate once. He always makes these tests to see if we're able to fulfill his prophecy. Bite is also one of the tests the candidates will have to accomplish."
"If Sanya can figure out how to completely vanquish Bite's animalistic side, he wouldn't have any use for Bite now, would he?"
"The only thing worrying me now is what he will do to Bite afterwards."

Tell them that the Wisdom Stone assures you that Bite will soon be out of the picture. Furthermore, inform them that we are annoyed by the specially emphasized 'he's and would prefer you actually told us something about him, for once.

"Who are you referring to as 'he'?"
Gezzono: "I'm referring to... Sanya's father."

How can you be so sure about Sanya taking care of Bite, Wisdom Stone? I mean, she probably doesn't have any clue whatsoever!

...

She doesn't. But she will. In certain cases, we are able to tell the future. Time isn't as linear as you mortal beings may think. If you care to know the details, you can ask, but I think it's sufficient for us to tell you that Sanya will be unharmed and Bite will be removed from the picture, at least for now.

Speaking of Bite, how's he taking all this talking like he's not right here?

>>132245
She's going to buy some armor and a halberd! We saw her battle bite ourselves!

>>132245
Sanya knows some stuff from using Mind Crush on Bite earlier. It reacts somehow with whatever curse Bite is suffering from, allowing a kind of mental connection to his memories alongside its harmful effects.

At any rate, we know Bite will be dealt with. We were there. Will be there. Um. We remember being there, in the future. Why won't you believe us?

Murdelp, allow me to quote a great man.

It might expand its influence or something...

>>132426
His eyes have gone black. They're normally red. I think we're in trouble.

Though I don't think this will stave off the inevitable, I think you need to tell something to Bite. Well, at least, if you consider him a friend, part of the party. Something along the lines of the following:

"Bite, I forgive you. I forgive YOU, the Bite I KNOW, the Bite that was our friend, and I know you don't want to hurt Sanya or any of us. It's not your fault. It's the OTHER Bite, the side of you we don't know, that is our enemy. Not you. So it's not your fault that Amina got hurt, but as friends, we'd like you to help us fight that other Bite, the one that would hurt us all."

I forgive both Bites. Just make sure you have some fish to throw in case of the kitty minded Bite.

Murder is not the answer. We need to bring him out in the open and talk to him and try to convince him not to kill anyone. Failing that, seal him away, but this is NOT the way to go.

"Bite, you may not know this, but you are trusted like a friend around here. I may be speaking for Lady Sanya when I say that we can take care of you, even if you have a sadistic side."
"... No. I can't stay here in this world much longer. The more Lady Sanya tries to break through my mind, the more I and the people around her suffer."

Holy crap. Did Bite just sound more humane now?

"... Besides, I long to come back to my own dimension... I feel like I'm missing someone very close to me... I can't remember who he or she is... But I feel... empty."

>>132989
That would be your daughter.

Yes, it's not the Bite you know so much anymore as it is the one who... Hmm... Perhaps we were actually the ones who brought about this change in him.

Tell him that Sanya isn't trying to "break through [his] mind," but rather trying to help him remember his past so that he might regain who he truly is. Remember things like about the place he came from, and maybe how to get back there. Information is always valuable.

Ask him if he knows how to return to his home dimension. Also tell him precautions can be taken to keep people safe while Sanya helps him remember.

"So what if I am?"

"Well you're clearly not primal; not acting like a thoughtless beast. So is this who you really are, then? Is this who you WANT to be? Someone who hurts people who care about them and want to help them? Is that what you've decided?"

>>133016
Warn Lenk not to try anything. Tell Bite there's something he can do. One last confrontation with Sanya. Make it stick. Force her to either cure him or kill him.

Tell him that helping Sanya's dad isn't going to get him back, in fact it will just make him keep him there longer, fighting the people that can help him.

Lenk is clearly frustrated. Before I can do anything, he grabs Bite by the shirt.

Lenk: "She had nothing to do with this! How could you involve someone in your problem?! I don't know what Sanya sees in you that makes you at least pitiful to look at!"

A moment of silence surrounds the two.

Bite: "You are obviously angry. This is what I want Sanya to feel about me."
"I want to make her frustrated enough to kill me."

Cowards who have given up on everything are the only ones who want to die. But if you want something, you have to LIVE to make it happen!"

"Hey, you should wait outside, and when she comes by, try to imply that you killed all of us."

Why does he want to die? There has to be an alternative. If he helps Sanya she'll gain power, won't she? Power to send him back through dimensions? It's mutually beneficial, killing him makes everyone suffer, including Sanya and people he's hurting.

"... Why do you want to get yourself killed, Bite? This doesn't make sense at all..."
"Maybe for you it doesn't. It's a complicated matter... but remember when Lenk told you I have two sides of a soul? Well... he only wants me: the side of Bite who can kill without remorse. He does not care for the Bite who walks around like a little kitten."
"What the greenskin said about bringing back my memories is just one thing in breaking my curse here in this realm. However, by killing the Bite who he wanted to live, he'll find no further use for the other Bite."
"... I want to protect the other Bite. He has done enough to keep me suppressed, to keep me from taking away lives. I want him to receive his ultimate reward."
"... But I also want to help Sanya. She is still weak-minded. To go against him would require her senses to be awakened."

"... But for me to have failed in even making her angry... She is slowly learning by herself. I will make her into a better mental fighter after my last meeting with her."
"... At least when I die, the other Bite will hopefully be transported back to our own dimension. He isn't really that evil enough to just take away lives unnecessary. It's not efficient for him."

It's admirable, but he's somewhat wrong. He talks of himself as being able to harm Sanya without remorse, but his actions show the lie to his words. Would such a cruel person choose to die so that an innocent would no longer carry the burden he bares? And as for being able to confront her father... It may be true that she would need to harden her heart and embrace anger in order to prevail, but the question is, would she want to prevail if it meant turning into someone who would sacrifice her friends?

But he has control over his own actions. He can choose to help ...him, or not. What's his name anyway, that would be helpful to pronouns.

No, he can't choose not to do this. Remember the flashback? Sanya's dad has supreme power and can force Bite to do stuff.

Bite is being sent against Sanya until either Sanya becomes unstable and fails the Test, or Bite dies. Bite's plan is a good one. It benefits both his other half, and Sanya.

But yeah, ask what "his" name is anyway, this pronoun usage is getting tiresome.

"Would Sanya really be able to do that? I mean, sacrificing her friends just to prevail over her father..."
"It's not 'sacrifice' if you are not forced. Don't worry, though. Time will come and you will understand. This is something that you will eventually realize what I mean."

I wanted to address the last question to everyone around me: Lenk, Gezzono and Bite. It seems they know him, so shouldn't they know his identity?

"Who is this he you keep referring to? I'm confused."

Bite answers. "... He does not go by any name at all. Or at least, he has accomodated himself to not remembering his mortal life's identity anymore."

...

Bite: "Mr. Pointy Ears, do you have anything that can at least weaken my senses a bit?"
Lenk: "Don't call me that! Geez, your last day to live, and you insult a total stranger! I'll prepare the strongest drug just for that!"
Bite: "And sorry, but I'll have to utter another lie to Sanya when we meet. It's my way of provoking people, so..."

And everything that came after is, as they say, history.

Bite went on to confront Sanya, and mysteriously disappeared afterwards. Sanya returned, very mentally-fatigued and emotionally-stirred up. She requested that we stay in the Nocitome Tribe for a few more days.

Amina is fine now. She's quickly recovered from her injuries thanks to Gazzene.

Gezzono's chance of recovery has yet to be determined, but Lenk has guaranteed us that he was able to grab the required ingredients to heal his blindness.

... And Bite... I can't tell if he returned safely to his own world...

... But I am hopeful.

Bite needs a new name to better suit who he had become. He is/was more than an animal now/then.

RIP or may you live long and prosper.
