It is just before noon on the 26th of May and you smugly watch Symbology open the door to leave Lilac's shop.

“Wait!” The dwarf sitting next to you announces. Lilac hops off the bed, bedsheets still wrapped around her, and scampers over to the other <Sweet Cake>. “First!” You overhear, “We did nothing.”

“Uhuh.” The elf responds; it's obvious that she doesn't believe her guildie.

“Second, I... I decided I'll be leaving.”

There is a pause and then Symbology asks “When?”

“Today, probably.”

The elf glances at you, and then kneels down to murmur something to Lilac.

The two of them whisper things back and forth for a while until Lilac turned to you and asked, “Can Sym come with us?”

You shake your head at the dwarf. “N-”

“Please?” She cuts off you off.

You sigh. There are enough beds for twelve people; including your brother, Canis, and Aideen, adding Symbology will be exactly twelve people on the crew. You look over her character information; 70 Medicine Man/ 90 Fisher. A level 70 probably has a bunch of power, but your brother will be with you and he has more than enough power to take on anything that comes your way, probably.

[ ] “No.” She's never realized your brilliance since you two met; why would you start doing her favors now?
[ ] “Fine.” She's more power in your arsenal and if she tries to start hit, she'll get hit by your brother.
[ ] “Fine, but you'll need to agree to a number of conditions.” She can join, but you'll be keeping an eye on her.
[ ] Other.

I wonder if Symbology actually wants to come with us herself, or if Lilac is just trying to drag her along.
>>
>>34422170

If she started hitting people, that would also probably be grounds for Ambrosis' bro to start hitting her.

Not sure what to do if she starts hitting *on* people, though.
>>
>>34421877
sure, as long as she promises to watch us sometimes when we make things so she can realize our power as a creative genius!

Also I am ready to join the GLORIOUS WIFU WAR

You mean the war for us to come back to our senses and drop all females to worship the Lever god?

welcome to the quest~
>>
Don't we want some sort of Captain subclass? To sheer our glorious ship, and a Summoner for infinity steam?
>>
>>34422170
Can we give her a real name that is a real word?

We will just call her that and ignore the fake word.
>>
>>34422354
>3 way waifu war
Please no
>>
>>34422579
We can just call her symbolism, we thought that's what she meant at first anyways if I remember the first thread correctly.
>>
>>34422586
You know in harems the late comer never really has a chance.
>>
>>34422603
Oh geeze I'm late. Also that's not ALWAYS the case, sometimes they surprise you. But we can hope for now Fakename here can mean nothing but there to coddle Lilac a little.
>>
>>34422600
I am Ok with that.

>>34422551
Thank you for the glorious welcome

>>34422495
You people need to realize. The Lever is our penis. That is the truth. And it will flip for the Dwarfu.
>>
>>34422735
And Judifu will spaghetti around it?
>>
>>34422603
It's not the chance of winning that bothers me. it's a 3rd party complicating things and turning this into more of an all out brawl.
>>
>>34422566
We'd have to drop our engineering subclass, and that would mean turning our back on the deity of levers. Unforgivable.
>>
>>34422783
It will just spur dwarfu to lament about brain tumors and Judifu to become socially anxious.
>>
>>34422804
I mean, maybe talk to someone else about getting the captain subclass
>>
>>34422838
Please no. I've had enough Lilac to last a long while. I want to get back to stuff like adventure.
>>
TinSheperd, deliver us from the waifu war unto pizza time
>>
>>34422933
As much as I empathize with brain tumor patients, I am ready to move onto the more fun side of the interaction as well.

“Fine.” You say, “She can come, but we need to move quickly. I've got my brother sitting in the middle of the desert or a mountain range, or where ever he is right now.”

“You don't know where he is?” Symbology scoffs. “What kind of brother are you?”

“First off, I'm not my brother's keeper. Second of all, you're makin' it really hard to want to take you along, so unless you be quiet I'm pretty sure you're gonna get stuck here. Alone. Without Lila-”

“Ambrosis.” Lilac interrupts you. “Calm down. Sym. Just... Pack as much stuff as you can.”

The elf mumbles something to herself before traveling past you and up the staircase.

“Ambrosis...” Lilac continues, “Can you please help her for a while?”

“Why would I want to help someone like her?” You respond.

“Well, it will help me pack up all my supplies faster and...” She looks down to the bedsheets still covering her almost completely. “You know how there isn't any underwear in the game?”

“Yeah, I'm just glad my robes are so comfy without the armor on. Glad I'm not a guardian. I'd probably start chafing and-” It suddenly dawns on you. You look down at the dwarf and the pale, uncovered arm sticking out of the bundle of cloth. “I'm going to go help Fake-name now. I'll be back in a couple minutes.” You turn and rush up the stairs with loud footfalls.

The upstairs looks to be an attic filled with chests. Symbology riffles through one of the chests. She gasps excitedly and pulls out a brightly colored horn that looks to be some kind of clown contraption. “Rouge, remember the party horn-” She notices who came up the stairs. “Oh, it's you.”

“What's that supposed to mean?” You ask.
>>
>>34424385
“Oh, nothing, I thought I was just going to take a walk down memory lane before I had to pack up an entire shop's worth of chests, but I guess I was wrong.” She hefts up a chest and heads for the stairs, but you block her path. “Move.” She commands.

“Ah. Well, about that.” You try think of something. “Lilac is... ummm...”

“Getting dressed?” She responds.

“Yes.”

“Pffft.” She replies, “I've already danced naked with her on a table... Well... “naked” in the game sense.” She makes hand quotations around naked. Then she shouts down the stairs, “Hey, Rouge, remember the party horn?”

Lilac shouts back up, “Please never mention the party horn again!”

“This coming from the person who still has it?!”

“I just haven't found someone who wants to buy it yet!”

“Excuses excuses!” The elf says pushing past you.

You wait at the top of the stairs, somewhat awkwardly until Symbology returns.

“Are you going to actually help or are you just going to stand there?” The elf asks.

“Nah. I think I'd just like to see you do everything while I relax.”

She scoffs. “Whatever.” She picks up another chest and brings it down stairs. “At least do something useful.”

You think for a moment and open up your friend list. You hit the call button on Edifice.

RING

RING

RI-

“Are we ready to get going?” The voice on the other end asks.

“Not yet.” You respond, “I need you to head to my location and...”

You look at your current party. Canis isn't in range to see any of his stats, but you still don't want to kick him out. Trove is the next name down and he's pretty chill, so he wouldn't mind.

You kick Trove from the party and invite Edifice.

“Okay.” You conitnue, “I need you to get to my location and park in front of a shop. We've pretty much got a bunch of supplies to pick up.”
>>
>>34424406
“Make sure there aren't any tracking devices or anything in them.” Edifice responds, “You never know who's trying to follow you.”

“Uhh... Yeah. We're checking them all right now, but we need you to get here so...” You roll your eyes. “So no one can mess with them after we checked them... and stuff.” This has to be a joke right?

“I'm on my way.” He responds. “Call me if you see anything suspicious. Like JIF sleeper cells.” CLICK.

You just stand there, stunned. Did that just happen?

You pick up a chest and Good Lord is it heavy. The hell is in this thing, rocks!?

You travel down the stairs and lug the chest to the front area. Lilac is sitting on one of the chests already there. “The Manifest Destiny is on its way.” You inform her. “So you might want to start taking chests down.”

“I can't.” She responds, “I don't have the strength to lift any of them.”

You mumble a bit angrily to yourself and turn to go get more boxes.

After quite a while all the chests, boxes, and shelves of items are stored in the bottom of the ship. Edifice stands proudly on the deck, commenting that he destroyed no buildings completely getting here. Fearing what that might mean, you order him to leave the city at once.

When you exit the city you hear the familiar RING of the call system and answer a call from your brother.

“Hello?” You ask.

“Am I safe in assuming you're in the giant metal thing terrorizing the road right now?” Your brother responds.

“Hell yeah.”

Your brother lets out a cry of excitement. “OOOOOOOOHHHHHH SHIT! That thing is like... I don't even have words for how amazing that shit is! Have you seen this shit!? It's like 'Why hello there, my name is Doombringer McFuckYouUp and I'm here to wreck your face with my mere presence.' THAT IS HOW FUCKING AMAZING THAT SHIT IS!”
>>
>>34424431
“Well that's just how clan McFuckYouUp rolls.”

“Oh yeah, man. Clan McFuckYouUp was the best highland clan. Fuck those other guys cause they don't have A FUCKING MOVING FORTRESS! Have you seen this thing from afar!? I'm fucking level 90 and I don't even want to mess with that thing! God damn! Is this how the cutting edge guilds feel when they fight a brand new raid boss for the first time? Because GOD FUCKING DAMN THIS SHIT IS... I don't know. I can't even describe how fucking amazing this is. Fucking... Fucking get over here already, motherfucker! It's mother fucking pizza time!”

You look out to the distance to try and spot your brother, but you can't really see anything. “Where are you?”

“In the MOTHER FUCKING SKY!”

“What?”

“DIVE BOMB OF AWESO- I MIIIIIIIIIIIISSSED!”

You look up to see your brother falling out of the sky slamming into the ground next to the MD. He rips himself out of the imprint he left in the ground and shouts, “TWENTY HP MOTHER FUCKERS!”

You cast “Heal!” on your brother before he starts climbing up the ladder. The rest of the crew seems quite interested in what happened. “My brother.” You explain. This seems to just raise more silent questions amongst the crew.

The monk lands on the deck, fists raised into the air, and yells to the heavens, “PIIIIIIIIIZZAAAAAA TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIME~!” He turns to you, taking a knee, and pulls from his bag an entire pizza on a silver platter. He holds out the pizza with both hands, head down as if he were offering you some kind of holy artifact. “It is yours to do with as you wish.”

You look at the disk plain cheese pizza. You have ten people here right now. You could probably cut it into fifths and then cut those fifths in half. Yeah. That could work. Now if only you had something to cut with.

Realizing you still haven't taken the pizza yet, you take the silver platter into your hands and say, “This is my brother. He's not so bad when you get to know him.”

“It's true!” Vertigo shouts, getting back to standing. “I, Vertigo of <Swich Licour>, have traveled all the way from Big Apple to be here with my brother and to deliver unto him...” He kneels once more and motions to the pizza. In a hushed tone he says, “Food with taste.”

That seemed to get everyone's attention.

“Uhh...” You try to think of what to say, “Anyone have something to cut this thing?”

You see a plethora of knives appear in Judi's hands. “Yes.” She responds, staring at the pizza.

“No, no no!” Vertigo shouts, “You can't!”

“Why not?” Judi asks.

“Becaaaaaauuuuse....” The monk holds the sound of the word, looking around. He was trying to come up with an excuse, but you're not sure why. “Because I hate you! You know that you did!”

The duelist looks actually hurt by the accusation. “W-what did I do!?”

“Zachery!” You shout at your brother.

“I'm just sayin'!” He responds. Then he give you a very intense look like he's trying to send you some kind of psychic message. “You don't want her cutting the pizza... with those tiny knives.”

You roll your eyes. “Okay, then what do I want to cut the pizza?”

He looks over to Takeshi and points to his giant nodachi. “Look at that sword! That's a pizza cutting sword! I bet uh... Takeshi here could cut a million pizzas with one slice of that sword.”

“We only have one pizza.” You respond.

“Exactly! So it will be a million times faster!”
>>
>>34425912
You sigh. You have no idea what your brother is after right now, but you don't really care to know right now. “Takeshi, think you could cut this into tenths?”

The assassin grasps his mighty sword. “Toss it into the air.”

You look over to your brother and give him a this-is-your-fault look before tossing the pizza, platter and all, into the air. The blade slides from its sheathe and cuts through the platter as if it were water. A few cuts and the entire thing falls to the deck in a neat pile. You count the pretty thin slices.

“Takeshi,” You point out, “This is sixteen slices. I asked for ten.”

“If I cut it into ten slices,” Takeshi explains, “Then some of the slices would be uneven.”

“Or!” You says, “You could have not cut through the entire thing with each slice.”

Takeshi tilts his head and admits, “I did not think of that, but you now have more than ten.”

“I wanted ten so everything would be evenly distributed. Now we can't do that anymore.”

“I see...” He responds.

If you only serve 8 people, you'll be able to get everyone two slices, so...

You look towards your brother. You must be angry because he seems to be shrinking back. “You're not getting any slices.” You say. He made Judi feel bad made this happen; he's not getting any pizza. He's already had more than enough food with taste anyways.

[ ] “Takeshi, you're not getting any either.” He's the one who failed to cut anything.
[ ] “The rest of you dig in.” You knew you shouldn't trust Takeshi to do this and you should have stuck with that gut feeling.

Why not just make takeshi and brother have 1 slice each then you have 1 slice and sym gets one slice?

“The rest of you dig in.” You say, “There's enough for two slices for each of you.”

Your brother protests. “But I brought it here for-”

“Zachery!” You cut him off.

He shrinks back again. “Sorry.”

You go over to the stairs that lead up to the helm and just sit, watching the others react to food with taste. They shout and cry of taste and how long it has been. They inhale their slices, bittersweet satisfaction on their faces.

You envy them.

It's been so long, you're not even sure if you remember the taste of pizza correctly.

Your brother sits down next to you. “I messed up again.”

“Yup.” You respond.

“I'm sorry. I just...” He sighs, “Forget it. I can't tell you anyways.”

“Okay.”

“But...” He pauses for a couple moment before letting a a cry of frustration. “Forget it.”

“Don't upset anyone in my crew again.”

“Sorry.” He hangs his head.

“I'm not the one you should be apologizing to.”

“Sorry.” He repeats.

“What did I just say!?”

“I'm apologizing for apologizing to the wrong person!”

You stare at him for a couple moment before looking away. “So, what were you doing up in the sky?”

“Hm? Oh, that? I Wyvern Kicked a bird, so it dragged me to the bird's location. Then I kicked another bird. I just kept doing it till you showed up. No idea how high I got, though. I tried aiming for the ship when I saw it, but I missed.”

“I could tell.”

“Look, man, I'm just... I'm really sorry. I didn't mean for this to happen, I was just trying to... you know, do the... correct thing.”

“And telling my friend you hate her was the correct thing?”

“No! I just... I couldn't... Forget it.”

“Guild stuff?”

“Guild stuff.”

You look to the group now lamenting the loss of the pizza. What made Takeshi so special? The answer hits you so hard you have no idea why you didn't realize it before.
>>
>>34427351
Takeshi has the Chef subclass.

“So that's the answer then?” You ask.

“I have no idea what you're talking about.” He responds.

“And if he didn't have the right subclass?”

“The thing would change into something unpleasant. You know how those... hats are.”

“Right. The hats. And if someone other than a hatter... modifies a hat, it becomes... unpleasant?”

“That is the working theory.”

“So, how does one make a... good looking hat in the first place?”

He shrugs. “I forget.” It was an obvious lie.

“Well,” You tell him, “If you ever feel like remembering, be sure to tell me.”

“You'll be the first person I tell, probably.”

“Good to know.”

You look out to the mountainous landscape for a couple seconds before realizing that the pizza party is probably over by now. You stand up and shout, “Alright, everyone, you've got a taste of what's waiting for us in Big Apple! Now's the time to get there! Everyone to their stations! Next stop is Big Apple!”

The group cheers and go off to their respective areas, which is to say, Lilac and Tarot in the engine room, Judicature at the helm, and everyone else off doing whatever they want.

Judi walks over to you, you first assume she is only heading for the stairs to the helm, but she stops in front of you. “Umm...” She responds, “I... I saved a slice for you.”

You're not quite sure how to react, but you take the pizza all the same.

You take a single bite.

It's cheesy and slightly greasy.

The crust is slightly stale and crunches with your bite.

The slice is not warm in the least, but the taste of tomato, cheese, and bread all together fills you with with such pleasure. You had not realized how hungry you have been until just now. You take another bite, and another. You let each bit sit in your mouth till it is devoid of flavor. Such amazing flavor.
>>
>>34427371
When you finally regain enough focus to realize there is a world outside of the taste of pizza, you hear your brother saying, “No, I'm serious, I am so sorry that I said I hated you. I really don't. I was just saying anything that was coming to my head. If I knew you and my brother were going out I would have said something completely different!”

Judicature's face goes deep red. “W-w-we're not...”

“You're not!?” Your brother exclaims, “Cause, I gotta say, you looked exactly like how I looked when I first started going out with my girlfriend.” He gets closer to her and quietly says, “I'd know, she took pictures and showed me. She call me up and say, 'Just look at that face.' Of course that's not the only thing she has pictures of, if you know what I mean.” He nudges Judi a couple of times. If she could have somehow become more red, she would have.

“Zachery!” You shout, “No one wants to hear about that!”

“Okay!” He responds, hands in the air like he's under arrest, “I'm just sayin'!” And just like that he wanders off to other parts of the ship.

“Sorry about that.” You say, “He's... He's many things. Very few of those things are good, though.”

“It's okay.” She responds. “Did... Did you like the pizza?”

“Yeah.” You say with a nod. “Thanks again for giving it to me.”

“No problem.” She says, “Umm...”

“Yeah?”

“I...” She pauses, “I should probably get to work.” With that she heads up the stairs to the helm.

In time the metal behemoth begins to move down the highway, towards adventure. Or doom. Or nothing. You're not quite sure.

We just waifu'ed the dwarf, and we immediately went on to get waifu'ed by Judi.

I think it's the other way around.

Ambrosis encouraged and comforted Liliac, then he almost got husbando'd.

Ambrosis encouraged and helped Judi, then she is tentatively and subconsciously attempting to husbando Ambrosis.
>>
>>34428223
Good point.

I must say, though, that saving a delicious pizza for us is earning judi mad points in my book.

>>34428244
I agree, the quickest way to a man's heart is through his stomach.

>>34428281
I meant more as in the everyone is chomping down on food they are orgasming over, and she is saving a piece out of the only two she has for us.
>>
>>34428317
Either way, her generosity and appeal to our stomach is great, but now I don't know who to go for. Judi won two sessions ago, Dwarf won last session and Judi definitely has the lead this one. Tiny why are you doing this?!
>>
>>34428365
Dwarfu is fun to be with, but you will have to deal with the BRAIN TUMOR self esteem problem.

Judifu is much more considerate, the "nice" girl, but more adorable than fun to be with. Also has to deal with social anxiety and self esteem issues.

I guess it comes down to whether you like the bro type more or the considerate type more.

>>34428365

Judi works better imo since focusing on Lilac's problems means we end up ignoring other stuff lately while "fixing" Judi's problems actually lets us interact with others more. Symbology showing up probably might fix problem that a little.

>>34428590
Not that guy but If i had to guess I'd go by the fact that the dwarf girl in the anime looked NOTHING like a dwarf. When i realized she was supposed to be one I'm brain had some sort of autism short circuit trying to figure out how the hell such a thing could be considered a dwarf even under the biggest stretch of definitions. I don't think the dwarf was even that short.

My biggest issue with Lilac is that she's a compulsive liar. Several of her old acquaintances and friends have mentioned this, so it's been an issue for a long, long time.

“Whelp,” You say to no one in particular, “Looks like it's time to go do captainy things!”

“Good luck.” Judicature says from the helm.

You go down the stairs to the middle deck, past your brother and the fake-name. From passing by you could tell Vertigo was talking about how his guild name is from the opening poem of The Canterbury Tales and that he was trying to and look smart.
You head down another floor to the engine room and spot Edifice going through Lilac's chests and boxes. Carnegie sits on a nearby crate observing his friend.

“There aren't any ninjas in there.” Carnegie says. “You're just wasting your time.

“That's what the ninjas want you to think.” Edifice retorts, “We know their plans, and that's our edge, but if they know we know, then we'll lose that edge and then who knows where they'll take their laser forts!?”

“You know,” You comment, “This is the kind of thing I'd expect from Takeshi.”

“Takeshi...” The guardian repeats, “What do we know about him? Is he trustworthy?”

Carnegie shakes his head at his friend. “This all started with a joke you know.”

“That doesn't mean it's not true!” The paranoid man responds.

You glance to the Champion before focusing back on the guardian. “Takeshi thinks he's the descendant of some super special samurai from Portugal or something like that. He's just making it up. I'd be surprised if he has any connection to Japan at all.”

“Which is exactly what Takeshi wants us to think, isn't it!?” Edifice shouts. “He's a sleeper cell mastermind!”

You shake your head. “No.” You say. “No. Just... No. … No. Simply, purely, completely no.”

“Exactly. It's the perfect cover. Not even you believe it.”

You look over to Carnegie who only offers a shrug and a “At least he's not talking about 9/11.”
>>
>>34428806
“Oh, don't get me started on 9/11!” The wolf-hair shouts, “There is no way it would have fallen like that unless someone set it up that way! That is a scientific fact!”

Carnegie looks quite annoyed. He glances over to you and mouths out the words Watch this. He pauses for a moment and says, “Why don't you tell that to us instead of looking through those boxes?”

“Oh, okay. Well- Wait!” Edifice looks around at all the chests. “That's what you were expecting, wasn't it?” He starts flipping open more chests and boxes. “Don't think your ninja mind tricks are going to work on me, JIF! I can see through your ploys!”

“So...” You ask, “Why are you so concerned about Japan invading us? I mean, South America has a higher chance to invade us that Japan.”

“Pffft.” He responds, “What are they going to do? Go BR BR BR BR BR Gib monies at us? I'd be surprised if it takes more than a party of Americans to take down their entire server. Maybe two parties if we have to default to Canadians.”

“And if they're French Canadians?” You ask out of curiosity.

“If all the French Canadians and all the Brazilians went to war with each other? At that point our biggest concern would be keeping them from respawning.” He points to you, “Seriously, fuck French Canadians.”

Well, it was certainly the reaction you expected. “Alright, well you two ha-”

“AH HA!” Edifice grabs hold of something inside of a chest and pulls it out. “I've found you!” He holds in his hand a short log.

“Uhh...” You respond, “What?”
>>
>>34428590
Western fantasy dwarves are thick, curvy, stout, and often bear a Scottish accent along with lots of hair.

Eastern fantasy dwarves have basically short girls with wacky hairstyles and colors. Warcraft vs Lineage, basically,
>>
>>34428817
“Everyone knows ninjas turn into logs.” He begins to crush the log in his hands. “And I might have just found our spy.”

“Ninjas REPLACE themselves with logs, they don't BECOME logs.”

He stops crushing the log. “Then I guess that means we've found the ninja's log supply.” He looks around the room. “That means any one of us could be the ninja.” He begins to back up the stairs until he is out of sigh.

Carnegie comments, “Ignore him. He's harmless. He'll do this for a few days then he'll go 'But what if the ninja was just hiding the whole time! Oh no, he meant for me to distrust everyone so he could get away without me looking!' Et cetera, et cetera.”

“Does he do this often?”

“It's mostly phases. He'll probably switch to something else sooner or later.”

You can only shake your head at the idea of the crazy man.

“Alright, I'm gonna check on the engines.” You say, “Gotta make sure those mages aren't gonna cause them to burst.”

“Alright.” The champion responds, “I'll see you around.”

You step over some chests and make your way to the center of the lower deck where you see a large, green lizard with many heads on long necks spewing fire into the boilers.

“I don't know.” You hear Tarot's voice over the flames. “I wouldn't have even done that for my best friend. If I told him not to do it, and he did it anyway, I wouldn't care. You fucked up, I'm not covering for you.”

“I can understand that,” You hear Lilac respond. “But some things are just more important.”

“I still think it's dumb.”

You glance over the body of the hydra and ask, “What are you two talking about?”

Tarot, who is leaning on his summoned creature, says, “Stupid things people do for stupid reasons.”

You glance over to Lilac who is sitting on the floor. You ask, “Is that so?”

“I would have used different words,” Lilac responds, “But in some sense, yes.”

“Mind being a bit more specific?” You reply.

“It's not important.” The sorceress says, “Anything you need from us?”

“Not really. Just doing the captain thing. Making sure everyone's doing well.” You look over to Tarot. “How're the engines holding up? Not too stressful is it?”

“Not at all.” Tarot responds, “With Bessy here there's nothing I need to worry about, except maybe overheating the things. At what point do they explode, by the way?”

You shrug. You have no idea.

“It won't explode.” Lilac answers, “At least, as long as the engine is moving something. If you stop the ship or jam the wheels: that's the only time you should be concerned.”

“So it'll never happen.” You say, “Because the Manifest Destiny is unstoppable!”
>>
>>34429744
“Well,” Lilac comments, “Now that you've said that, it's bound to happen. It's Titanic's law.”

“You just made that up.” You say.

“So?” She responds.

You hold back a chuckle and instead climb over the hydra. Said hydra's fifth head did not seem to appreciate that, but did nothing about it.

“So, where'd you find this thing?” You ask, “Never seen a hydra before.”

“It was an endgame quest back in vanilla.” Tarot explains, “It took you weeks to get everything done for the quest. Even longer if you didn't figure out the puzzles instantly. Took me a month to figure it all out.”

“After you got all the ingredients you had to fight the hydra itself.” Lilac added, “And if you failed you had to start all over.”

“I got Bessy on my first try.” He says proudly. “And this was before there were guides for everything on the internet.”

“Nice.” Is all you can think to say. “Well, if you guys need anything be sure to call me.”

“See ya.” Tarot says.

“Bye.” Lilac says.

You head back for the deck. You pass by your brother who was gloating, “I'm sitting there with a hundred health left and I hit it with one last kick and BAM! Thing goes down.”

You know exactly what he's talking about because he never stops telling this story. He got his entire party killed on the last boss of some raid and he was the only one left standing and he killed the thing before he wiped. It's far less impressive when you realize that, as the tank, he should have been the first to die.

You get up on the deck and look out. You have cleared the mountain range and see before you orange sand and brown plants.

Back in the desert.

Not that you are complaining.

“So,” You hear Judi call out to you from the helm, “Which way are we going?”

You remembered Lilac telling you about this before...

You could probably cut through the Frontier, which is a higher level than you are, but will be the fastest path. Although, this thing trying to get through that forest she mentioned before might slow you down a little bit. If you do make it, though, it will be a straight shot to Great Lakes, and then to Big Apple.

You could also avoid the Frontier by going down to Pueblo, then to Cajun, then up to Dixie, off to Brotherhood, and finally reach Big Apple.

Pueblo first as a test run so that we're near enough to civilization if something happens to break on the test run. A lever near the server border and news from others about how the southern server is doing might be useful to have too.
Then we go straight to great lakes since it seems roughly an equal distance from Pueblo as Dixie.
