I.... I'm really not certain if she can get better... I don't know, I've never seen this before..
I'm going to try to take her back home with me..

"I... I n-need to get to the Armory. The place with the metal weapons. I'm cleaning there."

>"Armory?"

"Yes, I need to clean there. Can you take me?"

She nods and leads me down the hall.

>"Here?"

"Thank you. Listen, go down the hall. There will be a crack on the wall. The master wants you to go through that crack and to wait on the other side okay? Don't move from that spot unless someone sees you, then you need to hide. Okay?"

"Hide? Outside? Okay."

She walks back to where I was.
Poor girl...

I listen outside the armory.. I can hear someone inside but it seems like they're sleeping.

>>284351
Crawl inside his throat. Drown and eat him from the inside out. What they have done is Not Okay.

be ready to shift bone so it gets in front of an eye. as long as they only see one eye they probably wont think anything is up. then go in.

>>284351
Luckily for you a slime creature trying to be sneaky is probably the quietest thing possible. Ooze in carefully and look around before doing anything, try to get in without opening the door but if it its too tightly closed then you'll need to carefully open it just enough.

i second silently killing whatever is inside. altho it may be a slave.

well im surprised you didnt hugged her. im guessing later on we will need a lot of healing potions for all the "cleaning" she will try to do on your friends.

I-I'm not gonna kill anyone! That would be wrong!
I mean.... I know that what they did was terrible... But..

I can't think about this now, I need to get in.
I quietly ooze into the room.
There's someone in here mumbling to themselves and writing.

>"Medor vaedi aezaelol ti sai pai eir si shys.... Damn liars... Cylaeria si mar sor shar kylae shi ei aeria byr..."

>>285069
Well, the whole point of this is to manage a surrender. Get behind yon crates and hide.

Hide in the corner of the room, listen carefully to what he's saying in case he mumbles something in common that is important. Hopefully he'll leave soon then you can get to work but if he doesn't you'll need to something about it.

okay, yeah. if you can't get rid of him then hide and wait until he moves.

Okay... He's leaving! He goes out through another entrance and leaves the room.
He didn't even notice me.
I'm pretty sure I'm alone now.

>>287054
OMNOMNOM

STRAPS, HANDLES, ROPES, RATIONS, EAT IT ALL, ALL OF IT

RAMPANT DESTRUCTION!!

>>287054
Remember no need to consume all the metal, that's difficult! Each away the edges and points, and where metal is held together eat the bindings and the bits of metal they bind to!

Just try not to be loud by dropping anything as you work you can't afford to be discovered yet.

>>287054
See that box you're standing next to?
It says "RATIONS".

Destroy their food supply, their weapons, their armor, their siege machines, etc...
If you get too large for your mind to control, then start splitting off a bunch of little slimes so they can go around causing chaos.

>>287054
Start with the food, there's a big box of it right next to you. After that we should start disabling their weapons (not necessarily destroying, mind you) and maybe sabotaging their water supply if you can get to it.

i wonder...

you should leave the food alone for now. if you can poisn it it would cause susbtantial damage to the soldiers until they notice it.

it would be actualy pretty much fun to let the slime slave ear all the rations and then tell her to eat anyone that complains about it. we should be however worried that she was contained somehow and that it could happen to you. so, we are staying under radar as much as possible.

Okay! So!
I ate a lot, right!? But then I got super duper big and then I had to split off into different pieces and those pieces made other pieces and then they went around eating other things and I ate the rations and there was a thing called honey in there and now all my pieces are wandering around and some of them have left the room and went into the halls and I think I hear screaming!
Wooo!

>>289444
FLEEEEEE

>>289444
Ok, yea, now would be a good time to escape with your new friend.

what a cunning plan! and you thought of it all by yourself!

time to GTFO. lets get your friend there and we will try to not scare everyone shitless when your children try to hug them.

Whatever you do, do NOT check out the sources of the screams.

You'd think something this dangerous and self-propogating would be better protected against.

okay move out and lead your army to victory!

or just go back through the hole you came in. if you see anything that ISN'T a drow, 99.9% chance it's a slave.

Uh I think the "eat their food" plan either is already underway or just won't matter. You've done good now get out!

Fleeing sounds good!

I quickly make my way back out leaving the smaller bits of me behind. It seems all the stuff I absorbed stained my skin though. That should go away after a while.

I go back through the crack in the wall. My armor is lying on the ground and I see the red Slime Child standing outside.

>"Hello?"

get your armor parts and tell her to follow you to friends.

>>290122

>>290122
take a peek at the surroundings first

Get reequipped, look around, and tell the red girl that her job is to follow you and do as you say for now. Then the both of you need to sneak back away from there as safely as you can.

>>290122
This man has the right idea.

Hmmmm... Curi, what would happen if you absorbed her and her core?

I wonder if the dark elves kept the core somewhere in their base? Ask her!

>>290140

"Uhm... Miss, is your other eye at in there?"

She shakes her head.

Oh... I feel so terrible looking at her. Like this is my fault..

I hear voices! They're coming from the entrance.

"Come on, we need to get out of here!"

The red slime child stands still.

>"But... I'm supposed to clean here... I can't leave.."

The voices get closer.

"Please, we need to go!"

>"I need to go back with my group..."

Even closer now. If we don't leave right now then...

"They burned your eye, now come with me and we can feed you and take care of you. please, now!"

wait, group? does she mean just slaves or slimes!?!? AAUGH no time!
tell her that this area is clean so we are going to clean up a new place but it's a secret place only you know of so she has to follow you to find it. and it really needs to be cleaned it is SUPER dirty!

I take the girl with me into a nearby cave. The entrance is too small for anyone to follow us and it seems they didn't see us anyway.
As soon as we enter she says she's sleepy and collapses into a puddle.
I pull my arm away from her.
... This may not have been my best idea. She absorbed my hand pretty quickly.. It won't rebuild until I eat a lot..
At least we're safe.

Unlike the rest of her group....

Try not to worry about her group right now, you did what you could.

What about your friends? They should have been waiting for you to finish your mission so they probably have acted on the disturbance. You should go look from the entrance, stay hidden and maybe climb up the ceiling. It will be a good spot in case of invaders too.

But take a look around this cave first, make sure it doesn't have anything dangerous in it. Hopefully it's just a small empty cave. Then you can worry about finding more food and water.

i wonder what the group is. is it just slaves or slimes? sigh. just sit tight and later get back to the fighters.

>>290799
Well, they did bad things. This is what happens when you do bad things, you anger people.

Am I angry at them? I'm still not sure... I've never felt angry..

I suppose I should check out the cave. There's a bit of light near the entrance but the back is pitch black. I can't see or hear an
Woah.
What is that?

My father used to make up scary stories and say that evil monster would hide in pitch darkness.
That if you stayed in it too long you would be eaten by the monsters.

just turn into a puddle. if something tries to drink you they would melt their tongue.

Is that a grue?

>>290810
Whatever it is, it already sees you so you might as well say hi. If it is a hostile monster it will go after you and not your friend, be prepared to dodge out of the way and fight.

You can't be eaten. You're vulnerable to magic and tools, not flesh and claws.

Call out, and see what it is.

>>290810
Say hello, and ask who they are.

Slime children are probably one of the more dangerous cave-dwelling creatures in the world, and are certainly among the least edible. Oh, and grues are very vulnerable to acid, fire, and light. You ARE one of those.

Is there any way you could merge with the red slime child to help her heal?

Beckon to the thing in the dark, see if you can get to come out into the light or get a feel for what it is.

I call the thing to me. It steps out of the darkness and stares at me.
Huh. So that is a grue. My father said they were much more vicious and nasty looking. this thing is kinda cute.

it.. may be a baby. if so then momma grue may be around. keep talking and see if it responds to anything or makes any noise at all.

Introduce yourself. Ask if its parents are around.

It might not recognize you as food, and be too young to see you as a threat. No matter, we don't want to be near it. Back up and head back to the entrance with out red friend. I don't think we need to leave, but better to be hidden somewhere not so dark.

>>294460
Forgot to change your name
Don't drop your guard, there may be bigger ones around.

that might be a grue I suppose, but then again, doesn't it sort of look like a slime child crawling around with eyes downcast? and glowing things in its hair-analog I guess.

Then take her back to your camp.

should the attack have happened yet? if so then you can accompany her back.

>>296616
Huh, she isn't very red anymore. Ask why.

On the note of asking her things, ask her if she remembers what it was like before she was captured(?). Might stir up some memories, and help her realize she doesn't need to clean for anyone anymore.

>>296616
Take this opportunity to talk to her a bit more, find out why she was there. If we can convince her to not go back that would be great, but the info may be useful regardless.

She sits down on the ground. I move a bit closer to her.

"So.. Why did you have to clean for them?"

>"..... I have to clean. It is my job."

"It's not. Not anymore. What's your name?"

>".... Red. I was called Red."

"I'm Curious as Cat. You can call me Curi."

"Red.. What happened to you?"

ask her to try really hard to remember where they messed with her eyes at.

>>297563
Tell her the people she was working for were bad people, and are probably why she can't remember. You're going to help her though, you're going to be her friend from now on.

You too should go and investigate what is going on, see if the attack has begun or ended. I really don't think the drow will be putting much effort into finding you two with all the other problems they have.

>>297563
I wonder if powerful healing magic can regrow a slime child eye...

Tell her you're bringing her to friends, and you'll try to help her remember.

hug her, as a slime child she wouldn't melt.

>>302313
but curi will. her broken eye has made red unstable and so she will try to eat curi by accident. her hand was taken off when she pulled red to the cave.

It's already established that the red slime can eat Curi.

how in the world would that even work... they are both... you know what, I am just gonna say "magic" and leave it at that.

Well I can absorb other slimes into myself but I can sorta control it. Red can't so she'll try to absorb me. Also her acidity seems to be pretty high...

"You were working for bad people before.. My friends can help you though. Maybe heal you."

>"Friends...?"

"Yeah. I'll be your friend to."

>"Okay."

I hear a sound outside the cave.

>"Curi? Curi is that you?" Someone is talking..
!!! It's Nalik!

She pokes her head in through the entrance of the cave.

"Curi! Thank the gods I found you! We thought you were dead or something! Things are getting pretty damn crazy in the battle front. We got rid of their food supplies and stuff but it seems they got some crazy beasts working with them, jelly cubes and stuff. And get this, an army of slime children! They pretty much wiped out our foot soldiers, your people are pretty damn hard to kill! Oops, that sounded kinda mean huh? Well anyway we're probably gonna retreat. Unless we can find out a way to get past those Children we're stuck."

A whole army of them...? How long have my people been in contact with land dwellers?

And how long have they been enslaved?

see, this is why we are telling you that sometimes killing is okay. if the dark-elves die then they wont be able to do this anymore. anyway for now we need to do sneaking mission 2. see if we can convert some of them to our side and stuff. tell them to try regeneration spells. they only listen cause they have been lobotomized, if they are healed then they shouldn't listen anymore. have her take red back to camp and see what a regeneration spell would do.

we know exactly how to deal with the slime children... heal them and they will turn to our side... and look, red here can be examined by our mages to find out the right healing spell to undo whatever they did to her. Since a major part of their mind control involves the burning out of one of the slime children's cores (eyes) crippling their intelligence.

>>303311
Ask them how many eyes they each had. If they all had ONE eye, then the problem is obvious, and the solution is to heal them, not kill them. If they all have two eyes... well... I guess we'd have to talk to them.

>>303311
Introduce Red to Nalik first, explain who she is and what is wrong with her. You need to get out there and try to stop this. Hopefully they can be reasoned with or healed somehow. Just get out there and see how it goes.

"Nalik I need you to meet someone."

I point to Red.

"This is Red. I rescued her from the fort. She was a slave to the Drow. The reason being is that she was missing one of her eyes. Our core is our eyes and without them we can't think very well and lose who we are. Were the others who attacked damaged like this?"

>"You know what yeah I think they were. So if we heal them they'll stop?"

"I think so."

>"Well let's get you two back to the camp and we'll get a cleric to heal her. If it works then the battle is as good as ours!"

I nod and climb out of the cave. It takes a bit of convincing but we get Red to leave as well.
Nalik leads us back to the camp, talking about what's been happening along the way.
Suddenly someone drops in front of us from above.

"Two slime children and a goblin? Surely the gods have blessed me today."

>>306159
Clasp your hands together like you're excited
"Oh, boy! Another member of the retard brigade!"

"Lets just go before his incompetence gives me a migraine."

>>306159
Adopt :| face

"Sorry, I'm not into foursomes."

Yell at him to look out behind him, there's another one-eyed slime child.

We're allies... watch out behind you.

Dodge, he's about to shoot out one of your eyes!

be ready to dodge and throw a small blob of yourself at him.

put your "arms" between him and your eyes, it is translucent so you could see through it, and should be able to disrupt an arrow.
Hold up your armor with one of them, not blocking your sight yet but be read to cover your eyes with it if he seems to drawn his bow (and rush him if he does).

is that a drow or an elf?

It's a drow and this is no time for jokes!

The drow fires an arrow right at me, luckily I'm able to block it just in time.

"Split up!"

Nalik and Red run off. I don't hear the drow follow them.

I quickly duck behind a tree.

That dark slimechild seemed to be following him..
And I can't get close to him at all, one good shot at my eye and I'm done.

can you drop a part of yourself and have it programmed to do something? like set it to slowly eat at the tree you are against and ooze around it. you then climb up and do your best to not ooze down. when he comes closer to investigate you drop on him. don't have to kill him but melt his hands badly enough that he can't hold any weapons. and maybe his feet so he can't run.

>>309401
How accurately can you throw parts of your body? If it could even touch his bow or bowstring then he wouldn't be able to use them.

>>309401
This works, but destroy his weapons instead. The bow would be rendered useless instantly, and then you can fall back to range and be safe.

OR you could always run away, then circle back around and head for camp.

Can you move your eyes into your arm? Then you could keep that moving so he would have a damn hard time trying to hit it.

>>309401
Can you climb trees? That could be a good idea.

even if we take out his bow he probably has a backup weapon, if we want to get away we may have to maim the drow. use acid spit on the arm he used to fire his bow. if you can hurt his arm bad enough that he can't use it you and your friends should be able to escape.

I hear him get closer. I try to climb up the tree but the bark dissolves every time I try to climb it.
I hear leaves crunch and twigs snap as he moves closer.

Suddenly a blast of green fire hits him. The man screams and falls back

>"What the hell-!? A dragon born! Dark, get back, we're retreating!"

I peek out from behind the tree. As I do I feel a pair of arms wrap around me.

"Eep!"

>"Hey Cutie. Nice to see you again. We missed you at camp."

"T-Torin."

My face is heating up again...

>>315866
Wriggle back. Rub your butt against him. Make sorta flailing noises and motions like you're panicking to excuse it~

Apologize for losing the armor he gave you. You had to leave it behind retreating from the base.

Wait wait wait, before that tell him that you rescued a one-eyed slime from the fort, and that it and your goblin friend are around here somewhere. We need to find them before the dark elves do!

yes get friends and also watch out for that black slimechild. torin would also be REALLY good to join you, being acidproof means he can just tank the elves' slime army.

>>315868
Yes, do this!

Then turn around and kiss him.
