New Beginning 9: Mystery of the Miscreants

[Marvelous Miscreant]

With our Bat problem solved for now. we've got two choices. We can either split up or stick together. These caves are going to be a maze and we need to find Mag before Mal finds him...or us.

[Zaleramancer]

But- Those bats are infected with a rare disease that explodes on contact with human saliva.

[jester_of_god]

.......Do you really think I'm still human at this point...if you do I take that as a compliment. Thank you.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

So, will we split up or stick together?

[jester_of_god]

Monsterking: I have no idea what's going on at the moment, and I'm about fifty percent sure that my main self may have died or sealed himself in the fight with Rhiolo..it's odd that he isn't back yet.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

"Well, then you can just stay here. Everyone else, What will we do? We can cover more ground if we split up, but there is also the risk that Mal will pick us off one by one."

[jester_of_god]

No, no, don't mind me but I'm coming with you. Like I said lat time, my kingdom isn't in shambles at the moment, and I'm itching for a fight. You've got the full force of the monster king and his army if needed behind you.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

That's great, but I'm still waiting on an answer.

[Zaleramancer]

Whatever you want.

[GreenDay]

I can actually navigate this without much effort, Kyst is a lot harder to get through than this. And I vote we split up. We can cover more ground that way, and we can all hold our own, at least long enough to call for help.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Don't underestimate Mal, she'll suck your power from you and use it against you.

[GreenDay]

If we do stick together, I could at least try and lead the group.

[Zaleramancer]

I do have a cheat button if all else fails.

Story Power is easily abused, yes.

[GreenDay]

I have the One Ring if we need it.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Whatever you do, don't use powerful attacks or items on Mal. That would end badly for us all. Now we've got to focus on finding Mag.

[GreenDay]

I think we should head to the right. To the left I sense more creatures, and I think Mal is down the center

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Technically she could be anywhere at any time, but we can head right. Let's go.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Um, onward...march.

[Philote]

[D-struct]
I'll head off in my own direction, I can always run if too much trouble shows up. I'll leave some black orbs with the main group and imbed a couple in the wall to mark the paths I've gone down.

[Myself]

Is that sarcasm? I don't think so, but it's hard to tell from text.
