Finding her won't be necessary... I already did!

Remember the Essence of Anger, Sanya?
Yeah, used to belong to dear ol' Daddy. Except the Essence of Anger is its corrupted form, which means... something ambiguous and likely bad has happened to your dad.

That might be it, but we can't exactly see into Sanasha's head at the moment.

Your mom! Didn't we actually tell you this just after you woke up? Sheesh, I hope you aren't losing your mind like your mom.

Hem. No, seriously. Your mother told us.
She seemed... decidedly NOT crazy when she first showed up.

Sanasha, by proxy of Amina.
Just remember that she's dealing with the knowledge that something horrible has probably happened to her husband, as evidenced by the fact that the Essence of Courage is in its corrupted form.

I can switch her out with ease if things get wild. I just don't want to have more than two people attacking the same thing. I mean, it's just one tendril.

The tendril stops and senses the danger of another presence. It might suddenly attack if we don't do something.

>>81532
Split apart, if it's only one tendril it shouldn't be able to keep track of two separate attackers.

Sanya: Let your mom and/or Gezzono know about the symbol on the wall. See if they can dispel it, read it, or do something similar with it.

Amina: Move into a flanking position on the tendril, so that it has to focus its attention on only one of you.

Gezzono: If Sanya's mom has the symbol covered, try and figure out what exactly the tentacle creature is.

... Oh, yeah. Sanya, relay all these suggestions to the others. Start giving orders like you've got a pair!

The red arrows on the wall are pointing towards the trap that the pressure plate triggered.

Come to think of it, where'd the red crystal go that was on top of it? Perhaps this is what happens when the trap is triggered, and that thing on the wall is another button. Try pushing it.

The tendril starts to attack me, while Amina goes to a flanking position. I put my spear inbetween myself and the tendril; it seems to be blockable, and I'm not seeing any strange occurence.

Gezzono examines the translucent wall and informs me that it's a wall created from a mix of mana and blood. He informs that the Essence of Anger might be responsible for this, but he has yet to understand why there's that strange writing on the wall.

Sanasha's examining the button, but knowing my mom, she'd do anything by herself. She seems to be perplexed on what to do with it.

Try having Gezzono use magic on the wall.

>>81592
Put you and Amina in between Gezzono and the tentacle so that he may continue to use his magic.

What he's doing must be important. He needs to get back on it.

Hey, other essences of wisdom;

Is there any way to easily alter the symbol to make it mean something else? We're dealing with that sort of thing -- if we can make it translate to peace or togetherness or fish fry, we might have a better chance of things in here.

Barring that idea, keep Gezzono covered.

(when you have some time, y'all should figure out what your potion and pills do. Also, maybe take a sample of the tentacle in your bottle. These ideas are obviously for later)

Swimming is out of the question. This stream was deemed too dangerous by the Kobold chieftain, 'coz there have been reports of the stream "turning into a powerful river"... if you know what I mean.

Flying isn't viable at this point, either. We wouldn't want to attract any more attention, and wings flapping through the air usually does that.

>>86092
Heaviest first, lightest last then. Sanasha's wings probably weigh a lot, so she goes first (don't tell her it's because she's heavy), then Gezzono and finally Amina. She's agile enough to just deal with it if the bridge breaks anyway.

Or maybe Gezzono first because he has no way of dealing with the bridge breaking, then Amina, and finally Sanasha because she can just glide quietly down if it breaks?

Have mum go last, so she can fly as last resort.

I'm going first, then. Want me to do anything specific that will help me cross this bridge safely? If I don't get any suggestion, I'll just go on like I usually do.

When everyone else is crossing, you'd better tell me when the bridge is going to break so I can stop them.

>>86938
The gap doesn't look that wide. Maybe one of the stronger members could throw Gezzono across it.

Get down and crawl, putting your weight on more planks at once will make it less likely they will break.

This'd better not be something perverted.

BONUS CONTENT UNLOCKED!

Looks like I'll be safe with this method. Now it's Gezzono's turn. Anything specific for him to do?

Well since he's a lot heavier than you, put on the strength glove and reach your hand out to grab his in case he falls.

Oh come on, you don't have to crawl across it like a maget. When walking across a suspension bridge like that, you have to adopt a sort of gliding, uneven gait so you don't make a standing wave in the bridge, which causes it to pitch and sway uncomfortably.

You could appeal to his pervertedness. But you probably really wouldn't do what I'd suggest.

>>87030
Oh fine, ask him what happened. Maybe we can just keep him talking while he crawls over so that he doesn't freak out.

Try to talk to him in a calm manner the whole time. Getting him excited is NOT what we want to do. Be confident, and let him know you're confident, that nothing is going to happen to him, he can make it across safely, etc. Just keep talking to him in a very calm tone of voice while looking him in the eye the whole time. It doesn't matter so much what you say, but how you say it. This will also work with children and dogs.

>>87030
There are other ways, TBH. We'd just like to see it and are pretty sure it would work. If it makes you uncomfortable try something else.

>>87032
talking about it while he's near the stimulus of his phobia is only going to make him lock up more.

>>87172
Amina is pretty agile, yes?

She might be able to shimmy across via the ropes, or even just tightrope walk across them.

As for Sanasha, she's got wings. She can glide.

Test the strength of the rope and post, tell Amina to do the same. If it's strong enough, grab the post and make Sanesha grab the other one so Amina can climb across the rope.

Amina: Shimmy along the rope.

No, I can't risk my mom traversing through the stream and getting attacked by Murdelp! He's the best sharpshooter I've ever seen, and I'm not saying because he's a Kobold. The Essence of Anger wouldn't want them to join.

"Ha ha ha! You see, I needed this Kobold as a temporary guard... This is the Kobold Mines, you see? Having a Kobold to guard this isn't really suspicious... Once I'm done with this, you can do anything with... his carcass."

Crap, it really knows how to take advantage of every opportunity.

We need to act now. Who should fight whom? What should we do specifically to beat them?

>>90074
I think Gezzono should fight the golem. Sanya, you can catch arrows with your bear hands, right?

>>90064
This is probably the best idea even if I want you to punch him right in the snout while Gezzono blasts at the golem.

>>90074
Sanya, you have the best chance of both defending against his arrows and taking Murdelp out non-lethally. Gezzono should be better at getting through the golem's stony defenses as well.

That's probably the better strategy. Gezzono can take that golem out with his magic; I see that the stones were made up of oridecon; it's meant to be used as a material for creating armor.

... They're waiting for us to move. Knowing that the Essence of Anger can hear you, we shouldn't communicate much unless direly needed.

Still, feel free to say whatever you want, directed at me or the Essence of Anger. You might be able to make it surrender.

Is there really any point? The essence of anger is too weak and cowardly to try and talk things out.

Anyone can throw a hissy fit and smash stuff, diplomatically resolving problems is something reserved for people that actually have some semblance of intelligence.

Man, that angry purple glow is sexy. we should totally make out.

Ah, but you're wrong. Anger doesn't start wars; greed, pride, and fear do. Anger is a reactionary emotion. It starts no conflict by itself.

Also, you're dodging the issue. Anger clouds the mind and makes one reckless. That's terrible in a tactician, which is why you will lose in the long term if you cannot let go of anger. A clear mind allows you to focus on the task at hand, and do it properly.

I have a message for you, Anger.

Courage. I've accomplished ten thousand times what you have. Alone. How can you possibly hope to defeat that which will never give in? Let go of the Anger. Embrace your true destiny.

>>90790

Courage, my brother, is the truth behind your facade. You are not an essence of anger. Anger is a moment of blind strength that lashes out and then dies But courage...? Courage is an enduring flame that burns in the blackest darkness. Courage is an unending strength that moves entire mountains Courage is standing strong against the direst of odds. Courage is fighting not for yourself, but for something greater than you, alone, could ever be. This is what you truly are, brother. REMEMBER

>>90790
Corrupted or not, you can't deny who you were - and still are. You need to be restored, Essence of Courage.

Fight your corruption with the Courage inherent in you. It has no place within you, no right to be there. Your true nature must shine forth, a light to banish evil and save lives.
