"Friend"

"OH AND DOES THIS FRIEND KNOW THE PASSWORD?"

Rose is scared stiff.

Run. Run very far away from that thing.

Password?

If you really have no idea say,"Sorry, I'm new at this."

>>310731
say: "no, who can tell me the password?"

"No, Sorry I'm new at this, who can tell me the password" Rose stated politely.(In spite of the fear Rose was raised never to forget manners)

"SERIOUSLY? UM THIS IS KINDA NEW FOR ME TOO, GENERALLY MONSTERS COME GROWLING AND STUFF AND I EAT THEM, THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED TO ME BEFORE I THINK I NEED TO CALL AN OVERSEER! CAN YOU WAIT THERE WHILE I DO?"

"um, i suppose, how long should that take?"

"Ok" Rose replies to the menacing, well whatever it was.

"GOOD, IT SHALL ONLY TAKE A MOMENT"

Huh, did that things... eyes? close? Is it gone?

Rose is really scared... Overseer?
The thing got larger too...

>>310791

Something is coming out...

You have got to be kidding!
Rose is Terrified, as you would be if an ominous door opened to billow out foul smoke and smouldering red light.

And the Shadow... WHAT IS THAT SHADOW?

Oh him? That's the Overseer. CHILLAX, ROSE.

He's just Doorkeeper's boss. You'll be fine. Any society that can produce someone as pleasant as Doorkeeper can't be ALL bad.

Feel out with Telekinesis, and greet it at the same time. "Hello, are you the Overseer?"

Rose tries to stay calm...

WHAT IN THE LOCK IS THAT?

Oh... It is just a tailless slug...
Well, that was embarrassing...
"Hello, are you the Overseer?"

The Reply slops into Rose's mind
-Why Yes, I beleive I am, You wish to enter our Forgehome? Oh and I do apologise for our Wardrune Gatekeeper, he is new, needed to make a new one after the last one was eaten...-

Politely greet the Overseer, then ask him where a way out of this underground region is, making sure to let him no his hospitality is not being spited, but due to the high presence of monsters in this area you require egress as rapidly as expedient.

"Hello Mr.Overseer, Sir... I'm not rejecting your hospitiality, I'd NEVER do that, but You see, I'm scared, I've been chased by a monster and I really would just like some directions to the surface"

-I'm sorry to say this but, You do realise that we are deeper than the great gingermines here, getting to the surface is a long a arduous journey, certainly not something a little cone could do on their own...-

The hole Rose fell down wasn't that long!
That and Rose even went upwards...

Then again, the Land of Elcon has a mind of its' own, and changes distances at will.

Whatever will Rose do?

>>311573
Go with it. Maybe there will be a group in it's settlement that are traveling to the surface. Y'know, traders or something.

Rose follows the Overseer, expressing a wish to see if there is any travellers, There is!

It's a Shupog Merchant! and his Redcubre Bodyguard, There is few things as dangerous as a RedCubre when it is in its' Wyrd!

As to how that Furmine can pull that heavily laden cart, some of those pests must be really strong!

The Merchant offers to take Rose to Zaldmines, a colony of Antopleze! These Antopleze send goods to the Honey Factory! The Honey Factory is connected to aboveground!

Rose is pleased.

good deal, promise you will try to help so you aren't dead weight, it is the least you could do.

Rose promises not to be completely useless, the shupog, Vark and the recubre Tum, laugh.

As Rose and the the Merchant are travelling, Rose falls asleep.

Rose is on the surface, on a meadow. It is beautiful. Her good friends Tyla and Pip are there.

Rose is in a snowdrift with some frostgrass poking out, which is what passes for a meadow in Elcon. It is nice... if you like snow.

In Elcon, there is mostly snow.

Rose is alone, nobody here...

All alone... Oh dear.

WHERE THE HELL ARE TYLA AND PIP?

Fell and then was alone...
And Lost

Do not fear...
There is hope... If only you can find it.

Oh dear! a baleful eye glares at Rose!
Whatever will Rose do?

Glare back.

poke it in the pupil.

Rose tries to glare back, but Rose's little eyes are no match for it's malevolent orb!

So instead Rose pokes it with the telekinesis

i think that worked! poke harder!

Rose pokes harder. A horrible screeching comes from the eye, in spite of the comeplete absence of a mouth or something.

It is working!

You see, Some Courage and there is things even one as weak as you can do...

There is an evil has awoken, it must be stopped, will you take on this burden? Little one?

Molehemoth is amused
"..But how could someone as small as me possible defeat such evil alone?"

You can't, You must find the others that the Land of Elcon chose!

They have arrived at Zaldmines.

But...
What has happened here?!

Such is the first part of our tale, of disaster and hope, darkness and light

what choice will you now make, voices of the soil? Whom will you guide

Welp that is the end of Chapter one of OH dear!
You know have to choose who you will follow! [don't worry You'll return to Rose where you left off]

You have four choices.
A Pengu warrior who is on a quest of honour!
An Explodahead who is very bored!
A Ram-rider who has lost his bike!
A Huge Buraskag, who is very Hungry!

Now how on earth do you archive these things!

>>314653
Explodahead! REALLY SHORT QUEST!

>An Explodahead who is very bored!

THIS CAN ONLY END WELL.

>>314653
to archive a thread, report the "chapter end" post with the reason listed as "COMPLETED QUEST". A mod will see it and archive the quest.

>Who will you follow
1. Don't actually request archiving until we decide.
2. Are we going to end up following all 4 of them eventually and we are just choosing the order now? Or will we only get to chose one or some of them and the rest will not exist in the story?

>>314935
Ok, well on the number one point, I didn't actually send the request until after I had started the new thread. Still I probably should have only called it closed(in post) after people had made their choice.

On that note, the choice was made, there only appears to be two votes, but when I made it there were three.

Thread here; http://quest.lv/kusaba/quest/res/314698.html

OH dear! EX!

Anyway on the point of order, after you reach a checkpoint with Crimson Bang, you'll have the choice to switch to another creature or return to Rose. All will exist in the story. For the most part I'll be trying to make it possible to timewarp back(or forward) to the start with all of them.

I'll leave you to figure out when events happen in the timeline. You could thoerically bounce between Bang and Rose, if a thing like that happens, the others will move without player control.
