Ren is roused from a restful sleep. The Journey passed without event, and they've arrived back to where it all began.

And... Well, it's over. Sebby heads back to the store, Alyona goes to make preparations for the next expedition, Asinias disappears to wherever he goes, and Rendamel and Wilfred once again find themselves amongst an unfamiliar city, with no immediate goal.

Ren supposes she could head straight to the mage guild.

Go back to the book store first. Ask where the mystery book came from.

Ah, of course! Ren returns to the twisted mystic and presents the MYSTERIOUS BOOK to the owner, inquiring about where she got it, and what it is.

"I really wish you'd stop bringing that pig in here. That book... Uh... I don't know, actually. I just pick up whatever books are taken to me by travelling caravans and stuff in bulk, they're pre-sorted. It was in the beginner magic section, so, I don't know. Could be a mistake.

I really don't remember that one, though, to be honest. Beats me where I got it from."

"Well, I'm pretty sure it's some kind of evil dark magic. It refuses to leave my possession, vomits black energy everywhere whenever I look at it, and caused an abomination comprised of thousands of wizards amalgated into one being to spit me back out like a piece of uncooked vegetable. If this turns out to be some kind of elder god thingy I'm going to be very upset.
Otherwise though it's kinda bitchin' even if it's kinda useless."

Dagnabbit. Might have to ask someone in the mage's guild then. Head there.

>>651408
While we do know the knowledge entity reacted to the book, Ren hasn't seen it do anything except come back after she threw it away.

Ren explains what the Book has done, and how she can feel weird power coming off it.
The shopkeeper is wide-eyed and seems a little confused, but just shrugs.

"I can't do nothin' for ya, kid. Sorry to hear that, but sounds like you got a curse on your hands. I'd recommend getting a Mage to get rid of it. Those things are bad news.

I'll have a talk to my suppliers about bad ware."

Ren steps into the stone hall of the Mage Guild. The crackling of power can be felt in the air itself. The many members all turn to greet her, waving and shouting. They've all learned what happened, apparently.

The Guild Head from earlier approaches. "Kobold! So good to see you again! We wondered when you would return.
What can we do for you? We owe a great debt to you."

Lessons in magic theory please!

Also, what is with this book?

Tips and lessons on how to do magic better. More spells, more spell types, more control, ect.

The head of the guild takes the book and says he will study it, and remove any present curses should they be found.

Meanwhile, Ren is free to do as she pleases within the Guild, within reason. She could go and consult with one of the many magic schools (FIRE, EARTH, WIND, WATER, LIFE, HOLY, DARK, NECROMANCY, CONJURATION, ETC.), visit the Mage Guild's armoury, libary, talk with the people around...

Or she could do something completely different. She's just doing what these suggestions tell her, after all.

Go learn healing magic. That's what we came here for.

>>651831
Get some more Life magic under your belt. Investigate stuff other than healing in that school of magic.

Also check out Alteration and Transmutation if they have any beginner's spells there.

Life magic and necromancy seem like the best options.

Ren decides she'll check out the life magic school, first, then necromancy, and perhaps some others. She walks over to the appropriate room and looks inside.

Around the room are various things. From groups of mages talking, to some silently sitting on chairs and reading, smoking... Others are healing the sick and wounded on rows of beds. Close to the entrance are two mages, engaged in a tense card game. One of them notices Ren.
"Oh, hey! You're the Kobold that saved some of the guys, right? Welcome! What can we do for you?"

Ask for some secret forbidden healing techniques.

Ren asks to be taught secret forbidden healing techniques.

The man chuckles. "No, we, uh, don't really have anything like that, that's more Necromancer business. But we can teach you some..." He trails off. He appears a little startled by Wilfred. "Oh, that's a pig. You just... Have a Pig. OK.
Uh, anyway, yeah, we can teach you regular, normal healing stuff, if you want."

Oh alright sure.

Hey ask what Holy and Dark are like.

>>651860
What kind of forbidden, powerful "normal healing stuff" spells might you have then?

Demonstrate your Summon Pig spell.

>>651883

Ren asks the man what holy and dark magics are like.

"Uh, well, I don't study 'em, so I'm not really the guy to ask, but from what I understand, they're basically opposite sides of the same coin. Holiness is all about currying favour with whatever gods you believe and doing spells that hurt the undead, or remove curses, or bless people and things. Dark is all about summoning demons, cursing people, spreading disease... Don't let the menacing description fool you, though. We here at the Mage Guild only use our powers for good. And party tricks.

WILFRED, C'MERE! Ren shouts.
Her magic works perfectly.

The main seems perplexed. "Ooookay. I'll keep that in mind. Anyway, if you wanna learn, the best way is experience. We got some wounded 'n' stuff, if you wanna try your hand. Even some Kobolds, I think."

Practice your healing magic carefully, you wouldn't want to hurt anyone after all. That would make you a bad healer.

Ren asks to see the Kobold. She says she'll be careful. The man nods and leads her over to a bed in the corner.

Lying in it is a slumbering kobold boy, not much older than her, maybe 3.
"Poor kid, looks about your size. Ended up in here yesterday after falling out a tree with a rotten branch when he was climbing. Arm's broken in a couple places, nasty scrapes all over his body, big bump on his head. He's spent a lot of time asleep.

Ren is nervous, but summons what she knows. Two balls of greenish energy appear in her hands. She... Thinks that's right? Maybe? To test, she gingerly applies them to some scrapes on the sole of the Kobold boy's foot. It... The... Flesh comes together! He flinches in pain, which makes Ren nervous, but the scrape is actually healing! REN'S HEALING SOMETHING!

With newfound confidence, she slowly draws her hands over the legs of the Kobold, upwards towards his body. Bruises and cuts fade away. Dried blood still mats the boy's fur, which is gross, but Ren isn't a cleaning mage. She's a healing wizard! Woo! This is fun!

>>652192

Ren asks the man where he was found, and he shrugs. "I presume just in the forest. He was just wheeled in on a cart by some merchants and dumped here, in pretty bad shape." The man also sets to work knitting his arm back together. He must be using a painkilling spell or something, because the Kobold boy doesn't even notice.

The Kobold boy says he needs to find his home. He asks if Ren can help him.

The boy says he doesn't remember anything about merchants or a cart. He tries to think about his home... He says there were... Kobolds there. And trees. And stuff...

>>652722
Well we know he was in the forest. Let's go ask the merchants if they can narrow the search a bit by telling us which forest, and where in it. I presume near a road, but how far in?

ren asks the man if he knows where the merchants are, since they'll probably know more. the mage shrugs. "I stay here basically all the time. The Merchants are probably gone from town, by now. You'll have a hell of a time finding them, they're a really nomadic bunch. They don't stay in one place for long. They do their buying and selling, then run off to get more stuff wherever they can, and then go to another town for more buying and selling." He waves his arm in the air and conjures a map. Woah, that's cool. "If you're looking for the kid's home, you'll wanna check in the forest to the northeast. There's a bunch of Kobold tribes and stuff scattered around."

The boy wonders why Ren wants to help him, since she's learning to become a mage and that would be easiest just staying in the guild. He says he can hurt himself more if Ren wants to heal him, though.

...that's a good point, we just got here. Maybe we can just stay here a while longer. Doing a good deed for amnesiabold can wait.

Ask if there are any more patients to heal. You wouldn't ask anyone to injure themselves just for life magic training. We can train other magic, you know. Fire magic is easy, just chuck fireballs in a target range.

Or we could go to the Conjuration college and learn Summon Pig for real.

Ren says she wants to help him, but maybe he's right. There are others to heal and more to learn. She approaches the nearest patient with gusto.

It's a Dwarf, very fat, even by Dwarf standards. The bed looks like it's liable to break beneath his weight. He's missing a leg, although that appears to be a very old injury, his beard is singed, he's got many bruises across the right off his body, and a black eye which is forced shut.

The Dwarf cracks open his one remaining eye and regards Rendamel with a look of disdain.

"Oh no, a horrid little Kobold.

You'd better not bite me, you ugly cunt."

>>652911
Tell him to apologize or you're not gonna heal him.

The Kobold boy seems confused by this. He asks why Ren is helping the Dorf if he was rude to him. The boy says he wants to bite the Dorf.

Well if he does, you'll get to practice more healing. He'll probably get kicked out for it though. Up to him!

ren warns him he might be kicked out and ren might no able to help him. as a healer, it's her duty to help out the injured, even if they might be rude.

Ren decides to try something experimental, and casts a minor cosmetics spell on the Dwarf's beard - the singed hairs begin to come back to life, orange and greasy. The Dwarf seems a little surprised by this. He sits up, looking Ren in the eye.

"Well, you're certainly well trained. Apologies for what I said earlier. Had a lot of Kobolds thievin' my fort in the past. But you're a good one, these mages have trained you good."

>>653157

Ren begins casting a spectacular spell to show off, but is stopped by a tired-looking apprentice.
"Look, kid, are you done making a mess and using all our stuff without spending any money?"

b-but the guildmaster said i was free to-

"Look, kid, we're thankful for what you did an all, but that was probably a joke, just a gesture for saving him. He didn't actually expect you to want to do anything."

Draw a dick on him

Do we still have enough innocence? If so, start crying saying that it wasn't your intention to be abusive, and you didn't wanted to be mean.

Take money, continue crying on your way out, maybe say something that will make the wizard feel even more guilty.

she decides to be polite first and knock on the door. unfortunately, no one is answering, and it appears to be locked. if the guildmaster isn't actually mad at ren and it's just the one guy, which ren very much suspects, then he probably won't be very happy to let her in.

Kon devices that the Guildmaster is the biggest and most important person in the guild, and would logically be staying in the biggest and most important part of the building, the big tower.

Kon begins devising an intricate and complicated plan involving taking the crossbow and with some clever kobold engineering creating a grappling hook, so as to rappel up there, while ren...

also, ren could try some of her new spells and stuff.

Consult the MYSTERIOUS BOOK; maybe it has a spell that will help get back the MYSTERIOUS BOOK.

Why don't you try one of your spells to fly up there.

Well we did just see the MYSTERIOUS BOOK in our inventory, right between our KOBOLD KIBBLE and our HEALING 101.

How do patients get in? We could get Kon to say he isn't feeling well, then once he is inside deliver a message for us to someone who isn't that one jerk.

The book returns to your inventory when you discard it, right? It's not returning now because you're still trying to get it. So if we just leave it there it'll come back.

Ren could make use of her new spells she's learned, such as TELEPORT or LEVITATE, which she's a little rusty at. Or... Kon could fake an injury and get inside, then try and make his way through to find the book.

The choice is yours.

Or you could do something completely different! Life doesn't work on a two-option system.

>>654065
I kindof like the grappling hook idea Kon had, as we do have rope, and could tie it to a bolt to shoot it. However let's put some magic into that plan. Magic the bolt so it sticks to whatever it hits, and cast levitate or something on the bolt&rope so that it's extra light and can fly farther.

Kon interrupts. He says he has some rope right here, and begins drawing a length of thin rope from a pack. he says you should always have rope with you. it has a bunch of uses!

Oh, did Ren's rope get used up when rescuing the mages from the ruins or whatever?

But yeah try out some magic on it.

Oh good, we had run low on precious ROPE after that ruins thing.

Try levitating one end of the rope, or tying something to it then levitating that thing.

[Ren is not dead! I've been slipping lately, I know, but I refuse to let the adventure end.]

Ren brings together the rope and the crossbow and puts together a few simple enchantments. Kon is giggling excitedly, he gets to make a grappling hook without doing any hard work.

Now, Ren's a beginner at this, but, if it all works, it should behave exactly like a good grappling hook, where Kon shoots it where he wants to be, and it begins dragging him towards where he shot it. Only one way to find out.

Kon takes aim, and...

The book is triggered by attaching a physical trigger to it, and then pulling said trigger.

read the book, it probably will tell you how to activate it.

Kon: Ow why did I do that.

Ren and the Guildmaster make their way down to the writhing Kobold to help him out. Along the way, Ren questions whether or not she's allowed in the Guild. Someone seemed mad at her.

The Guildmaster rather sheepishly explains. "Well, the thing is, you are allowed free reign, but, um, neither I nor the guild were expecting you to get so... Hands-on. You've made quite a mess. We still owe you of course, and it pains me to say this, but... Perhaps it would be best if you stayed out of the Guild's way. For a while."

They could search further around the city they're in! Or, go alongside the Ocean, where port towns and tribes of Aquatic creatures roam. They could head to the Dragon's lair, nearby, as Dragons are said to be as wise as they are dangerous, and Dragons are certainly dangerous! Or, into the deepwoods, where ancient and evil creatures dwell. If they wanted to go there for some reason. Maybe it's better than it sounds.

Or they could head back to Ren's tribe! Some of the Kobolds there might know Kon! Likewise with the other tribes dotted around.

Or they could head to the Dorf fortress, Rockmurdered, or the Elf hideaway. With what little they know about Kon, each is equally promising.

This is home, where Ren grew up. Kon says he doesn't recognize it, but it smells nice. Ren has never noticed a smell.

Yvirell is fishing down by the river as usual, and all around Ren's fellow tribespeople are smiling, laughing, going about their days, and staring at Ren's weird outfit and whoever this stranger is.

Ren stops down by the Docks. There, her big brother Visrakum and Yvirell are engaging in some antics. Oh, those two. Ren definitely thinks that if they had a quest of their own it'd be worth following.

Well, she would if she had any conscious idea what that was.

Yvirell waves, but doesn't break focus from his fishing. Visrakum says he likes your hat, and asks who your new friend is.

What kind of gods do kobolds worship?

Tell the elder about some of the stuff that's happened to you, and that you're going to that tribe that got attacked, to practice healing.

Kobolds generally have 1 religion per tribe, usually completely separate from any other.
Ren and her tribe, for example, worship Kortulmak, god of monsters.

Regardless, Ren says she's going to search in the village to the East, and also heal anyone that was injured. The Elder nods and waves Kon over. "Come, Rendamel, The Lost. I have something that may aid you on your journey." He reaches into a chest and brings out...

KOBOLD STAFF and a KOBOLD CROSSBOW which he hands to Ren and Kon, respectively. They're made of gnarled wood and rusted metal, with a strange green orb in the Staff.

Well, they may not be perfect, but they have heart.

>>659297
Awesome, a staff of your very own! Thank the elder kindly, and maybe we can get going.

As Ren and Kon make their way East, Ren asks Kon if he remembers anything. Like what god he worshipped.

Kon says there's... Foggy images... Other Kobolds... A sword... A Dwarf... It's not a very helpful flashback.

A dwarf? ...does he have any feelings about dwarves in general?

Ren asks Kon how he feels about Dwarves. He says that they're nice sometimes and mean other times. They are neutral. Now ELVES, Elves are total-

Oh, we're here. It looks like a typical Kobold village, if it weren't for the fact that several houses are very torn up, with weapons embedded inside. Kobolds go about their business, some with moderate-to-severe injuries. To their credit, they don't seem to be letting it bother them.

>>659493
Go talk to the elder for permission to go magicking the victims. You'll want to start with the worst injured first.

Ren approaches a random villager clutching a sniffling child with tears welling in their eyes.

Ren says they're visitors from the Tribe to the... Uh... Opposite of East, and they're here to look for anyone that recognizes Kon and maybe heal anyone they can. Can you point them to the Elder?

The adult nods and begins to speak. Yes, to find the elder, you can simply- Wait, a healer? Please, heal my child. She's inconsolable, and we are quickly running out of medical supplies.

The child appears to have a severe case of slight cut on the hand.

Ren does a very basic healing spell on the tiny cut. The child stifles his sobbing and begins to laugh and cheer. The adult is entranced. Evidently, she has never seen magic before.

The adult points Ren in the direction of the Elder, just on top of the hill. She thanks Ren profusely and says she owes Ren a debt.

Don't worry ma'am, Just doing my work

>>659526
Um it's fine don't worry about it.

Kon says that so long as she was OFFERING, he doesn't see the reason not to, since she clearly wanted to give it away.

Rendamel and Kon enter the tent of the Elder, a tribal looking fellow, stirring a boiling cauldron of thick, green ichor.

Ren introduces herself. They say that she's from the Tribe to the not-East. Her friend here, Kon, has lost his memory - they're looking for anyone who recognizes him. They'd also be happy to offer healing services to anyone that need them.

The Elder nods. He says that he's afraid he doesn't recognize Kon, so he must not be from this village, but he can send out word. And he would feel great gratitude of Ren were to help with the healing. There are no mages in the tribe and they are running low on conventional supplies.

Agree to help healing people. Have Kon run triage and organize injured villagers into a neat line so you can zap 'em one after another.

Healing zaps.

Not lightning zaps.

>>660001
Ask if he knows if anyone is in danger of dying from their wounds, you'll help them first. Otherwise just go out and announce your intentions and ask for a vaguely orderly line.

Ren says yes. She'd like to see anyone that's in urgent danger first, then the rest can be dealt with in an organized way. The Elder, who introduces himself as Defkeb, says that there's a Bay with wounded and he'll lead them there.

As they walk, he notices Kon's crossbow, and asks if he can fight. They're in danger of a second attack by the Gnolls, and they'd like all the help they can get.

Inside, there's about a dozen Kobolds that look critically injured, with pockets of others around nursing more minor injuries. The Elder gestures to the first bed, where a Kobold sits, wrapped in blood-soaked bandages. "This is Lopin. Poor little thing. Gnoll claws are nothing to mess with. He's lucky they didn't have an arm."

Rendamel chokes down her nervousness and dislike of the whole gorey situation and gets serious, setting to work. She even takes her hat off. She's not sure how well she'll be able to do with the more serious injuries, but no better way to find out.

As she gets to work, she and the Elder chat about healing and magic business. Kon doesn't understand it, so he begins to zone out.

You are KON, The Lost.

You lost your memory after an accident. You're still young, so you're practically a blank slate. You decide it's time to make some decisions.

1. WHAT ARE YOUR FEELINGS ON RENDAMEL?

2. HOW DEDICATED ARE YOU TO FINDING OUT YOUR PAST?

3. IF AND WHEN YOU DO FIND YOUR TRIBE AND FAMILY, WHAT WILL YOU DO?

1. She's pretty cool, you guess.

2. It would be nice to re-discover, but it's not the end of the world if you don't.

3. You really don't know. That's a bridge you'll cross when you get there.

she's pretty... uh, pretty cool, yeah. that's what you ment.

somewhat, you are kinda really curious.

depends, if they recognize you that would be really nice.

1- She's Weird, She didn't wanted to make shinies at first...

You decide that Rendamel is pretty cool, though she possesses weird qualities. You have no idea what you'll do when you complete your mission of finding your home.

As you make these decisions, a group of soldiers chatter near you. They say there's still a Gnoll right outside, and that it could attack at any moment if they don't get it. But they're too injured to get it.

Aim for center mass, less likely to miss. Take advantage of that injury by dodging to the side, then come in to finish it off with the axe.

Kon smiles, satisfied. The Elder says he'll help out the Lost in any way he can, providing transport for his search, aiding him with the weapons lying around, etc.

Unfortunately, as hard as Ren tried, the eye still isn't fixed up completely. It needs time to heal. You'll wanna change bandages every day, probably before heading to bed.

Visit the elves.

Elves can fashion.

Fashion means more fashionable hats and eyepatches to acquire.

More fashion means being a better wizard, obvi.

Oh, and go ask about Kon's family too I guess.

Go talk to the Dwarves! Kon remembers a dwarf. Also we have an invite.

Dorfs. The elves will probably try to eat your or something.

Elves. The dorfs will probably drown you in lava or something.

Go to the Dorf Fort since you've got the official invite. Kon was about to say something about the Elves before, are they all BIG JERKS or something, who will try to turn Kobolds into pets like that one Elf?
