Quest Mingle: June-July


Quest Mingle: June-July
LOGS | NETWORK | OOC | MEMES | NAVIGATION


Questboard! This post is for playing!

Guideline

• These quests are valid from start of June until end of July.
Characters don't need to be a member of the guild to do quests and anyone can do any segment's quest! The quests are just marked this way to show where the quests are taking place.
City Location Details | Segment Location details
• Remember to keep distances in mind: it takes 2 weeks to travel on foot from the bridges to the edge of the map (barrier). Faster methods for travel exist, of course.
• For some of the monsters, additional details can be found from the Bestiary.
• Rewards are for one completion of the quest, but characters can do it multiple times to earn more money from them, as the problems do repeat.

• Please see the guild page for permanent quests.

Quest Types
• Battle Quests: Usually deal with hordes of monsters or monsters that threaten the natives. Always involve battling.
• Boss Battle Quests: Boss Battles appear when a certain condition is met. Usually linked to normal battle quests and always involve battling. They can be "summoned" multiple times during the months.
• Gathering Quests: Ingredient hunting. These can be gathering minerals, plants or even capturing animals where necessary. Rarely involve battling - if there is it will be marked.
• Misc Quests: Quests that don't really fit into other categories.

IC Note

After the mission in the Doctor's mind, Sawyer, Autumn's guild leader and native power holder, was injured. While he's on the mend, the Autumn Segment is more dangerous than usual, and this is reflected in the quests that are coming in. Please be careful out there.

Quest NameDescriptionOOC NotesRewards
Going to the DogsSled dog trainers in Frostreign could use some help. Come train the dogs to respond to commands, pull sleds with people and/or cargo, and run through the snow.The dogs are mostly normal dogs but sometimes a magical dog will be part of the pack, such as a Spirit Dog, Magical Dog (colour and magic element up to the player), or Pegasus Dog. As long as it's a good fit for pulling a sled (sorry to the Flower Fairy Dogs), it's there.700 Moon Coins
Pet ShowyYou know what we haven't given the otherworlders enough opportunities to show off? Animal transformations! So we're running a show to see what you can do with animal forms, from quality of the transformation to obstacle courses and other tasks!Characters can use one or multiple animal forms from their season powers. All kinds of pet-show-esque competitions exist, such as obstacle courses, tightrope walking, and hoop jumping, but also more combat-related competitions like breaking boards.500 Moon Coins
Please Take It Somewhere ElseThe cabbage creature from April has survived the “Ascension”. It is now hovering over my house like some sort of leafy deity. Someone needs to escort it somewhere more appropriate.Escort the Ascended Cabbage Kite to a new habitat. Mayonnaise can be used as a lure, but unlike regular Cabbage Kites, the Ascended Cabbage Kite will not pass on if it eats it. Unless the character really screws up, the Ascended Cabbage Kite will grant them an egg-shaped charm to summon it.Cabbage Egg (charm to summon an Ascended Cabbage Kite as a companion)
Wedding Bell BluesIt's wedding season, and some excited Ellipsans want to revive the old tradition of hiring one power holder per season to use magic to bless the union. Of course, why stop there? There's plenty of work to be done at a wedding!Questers will be assigned another wedding task in addition to the ceremonial blessing -- anything from catering, flowers, decoration, you name it. Whether it's something the character is good at is up to player discretion.800 Moon Coins

Chests AplentyPlease send help! My caravan was attacked in the winter segment and my cargo is scattered across several miles of road. I can’t gather it all back up by myself. There are some with belts around them -- make sure you leave the belts on! Please. It’s very important.Some of the chests are not chests. Some of the chests are mimics pretending to be chests, and if the straps holding them closed are removed (either by characters or if they were found that way) the chests will attempt to attack. They will need to be destroyed or subdued.200 moon coins per intact normal chest, 1,000 per intact mimic chest
If You're Sad And You Know ItThere are some Negative Monsters out west in the Winter Segment, moving towards the settlements we've reclaimed. Someone must have messed up an enchantment. Try and clear them out before they get to town and start eating people's joy.Negative Monsters sap positive energy. The happier and more positive someone is, the more likely they are to go after them.3,000 Moon Coins
Pop-Up PiranhaIt's those Icicle Piranhas again! Ever since they first appeared in the Unfrozen Lake, they've been eating all the other fish. We need to at least pare the population down.Icicle Piranhas are an invasive fish that bite the moment they come up from the lake, usually targeting someone's nose or their ear (causing at least a nasty frostbite).2,000 Moon Coins

Someone's Been LiftingWait, those Negative Monsters were pretty close to the Darkness, right? Remember what Darkness did to Negative Monsters before? Watch out for the big ones if they show up.This boss only appears when enough Negative Monsters have been defeated. Some of the Negative Monsters, rather than being shrimpy little goblins, have been enhanced with Darkness. In addition to resisting otherworldly abilities, they are now large and buff.6,000 Moon Coins

In the BloodNow that we know Blood Metal is still out there in the Wolf's Blood Mountains, we'd like you to try and mine some and bring it back. Be careful, though, it's dangerous way out there.As this is in the Wolf's Blood Mountains, the danger is higher the closer to the full moon due to the werewolf population. Blood Metal ore is found in the caves.2,000 Moon Coins
You Can't Cure StupidSomething weird happened when some people tried to use water from the cursed moat around the city for some kind of machine (why anyone would do this, we don't know), and now people who just lost a lot of money are falling ill to a curse. Silver Pine needles from the forests in the Winter Segment can brew a potion that will cure it.The Silver Pine grows in most of the forests in the Winter Segment and is notable for the metallic colour of its needles. Anyone who hears a lot of city gossip, especially from the criminal community, will have heard that the inciting incident was the Cups Gang trying to create their own currency called "Cupcoin" and deciding rerouting cursed water from the moat was the most efficient way to cool their hidden data centre.500 Moon Coins per pouch of needles

Quest NameDescriptionOOC NotesRewards
Bridge of the FoundLooking at our reports, too many enemy attacks now have had our enemies magically know or show people things about themselves. There's something that might be able to help you prepare in case they do it again, and some of our longest-serving questers might know what it is. The big bridge on the river between the Half-Frozen and Unfrozen Lakes used to be called the "Bridge of the Lost" because it would help us meet with the ghosts of the people we lost, but nowadays, when you cross it at noon... well, be prepared to say some uncomfortable truths.When crossed by two people at exactly noon, the bridge will block exits with a barrier, and characters will see each other as either: 1) someone they've lost; 2) their enemy; 3) their ideal self; 4) their "bad end" self, or a version of themselves they don't want to become. The barriers will go down when characters say something truthful about the person they see (not the person who's actually there behind the illusion).700 Moon Coins


Spring Segment

Eye See You
CW/TW: Bugs, eye horror
One of the smaller rivers in the Spring Segment has been flooding, and the soil erosion on the riverbanks is unearthing some weird monsters we're calling Centioculi. People we sent to check them out are coming back acting strangely. Please clear the monsters out and make sure they don't hurt anyone.The creatures are person-sized centipede-like creatures covered in eyes. They can thrive both in the water and on land, and when they see someone, they will climb out of the river toward them. Anyone who locks eyes with the monsters (easy to do since they have so many eyes) will have their emotions drained (that's what the Centioculi eat) and be left with only muted feelings and expressions. The average victim of a Centioculus will have their emotions recover over the next few days.2,500 Moon Coins
Fly to the SkyFirebirds are getting a lot more territorial these days, and that's saying something! I can see why, but they're spitting fireballs at anyone who dares enter the Breeze Hills for anything. We need someone to go out and pacify those birds.The Firebirds have gotten very possessive of their nests since their eggs are used to cure a disease called "frozen heart," which it was discovered last year was magically engineered. They don't need to be killed and can just be defeated enough times that they'll calm down by the end of the quest period (for now, anyway).3,000 Moon Coins
Locust Hocus
CW/TW: Swarming bugs
What's with this massive swarm of locusts? We need to protect the farmlands before they eat all our food! Run out there and fight them off!The locusts are technically Corrupted Magical Animals, but since they're locusts, they can't really do much more than regular locusts can. The main threat they pose is their sheer numbers and status as agricultural pests.1,500 Moon Coins

Weather Forecast For Tonight: Dark
CW/TW: Darkness corruption
A small rupture has opened in the protective barrier surrounding the region, and corrupted creatures have begun slipping through. While our menders work to seal the breach, we require capable individuals to hold the line and prevent the creatures from spreading into nearby lands. Be advised that the corruption leaking through the tear may distort the environment and agitate local wildlife. Expect unpredictable conditions. All volunteers willing to stand watch until repairs are complete should report to the marked site immediately.This quest only unlocks once a number of other quests in the Spring Segment have been completed. Volunteers arrive at the breach past the Crescent Moon Lake and must hold the area while barrier repairs are underway. The corruption may twist nearby terrain, affect visibility, or draw increasingly dangerous creatures toward the rupture.8,000 Moon Coins

All I Want For SolsticeIt's that time of year again! Gather up flowers from the Spring Segment and make them into flower crowns to bring back. If you don't already have the spell to make them last longer, we'll provide that too.Throughout June and July, Ellipsa celebrates the Solstice with various rituals and traditions, including flower crowns. Some may comment on the meanings of the flowers as well when retrieved, especially if they know the crown was a gift from a specific person!20 Moon Coins per crown made and retrieved (max of 100 crowns), spell to preserve cut flowers and plant life (if the character doesn't already have it)
Where the Wild Roses GrowThe fairies have mentioned that there are wild roses in the Fairy Garden that weren't there before the Darkness. They've been trying to study them to see what they'll do, and they've asked us to help by taking samples.The roses have a mild unsettling aura and eating them will make a person sick, but their magical properties will work well in potions and might lead to a breakthrough in the future when it comes to finding a cure for Darkness corruption.500 Moon Coins, Shadow Potion (the next time the user is hit with shadow magic, it will heal instead of hurt)

Wise Old SpiritsThe spirits in the Tree of Wisdom seem to be at unrest. Are they upset with each other? Help them resolve their issues and answer their questions.While this will be easier for Winter power holders and others with spirit sight, these spirits are at least audible by everyone. The arguments tend to revolve around different ideas of how to help the power holders. They've been haunting a tree for 18 years, they have outdated discourse.500 Moon Coins

Four Could Be the OneThere seems to be a new, smaller variety of Lava Monster out in the Lava-Ridden Land. It doesn't look as strong as the big ones, but we need to assess how much of a threat it is.The Lava Littles are about the size of a small child, but when they take a hit with magic, they'll split into four smaller Lava Littles. All four must be defeated to kill it. They have the same weakness (their lava core) as Lava Monsters.2,500 Moon Coins
Get in the GameWe don't know how it happened, but there are strange monsters running around the Jungle of Judgment... strangely familiar monsters. Somehow some of the enemies from the Temple of Life escaped the Giga Man game! At least we know they can be defeated, and they disappear and go back into the game when you do. Go put them back where they came from!One type of Giga Man enemy from each level has escaped: Small Robots that throw wrenches, Skeletal Fish that jump out from behind waterfalls and shoot lasers, Demonic Fireballs that jump around and burn when they hit, and Walking Cacti that shoot spikes. They are vulnerable not just to the Giga Man gun but to seasonal powers now that they're in the real world (but are powered up by electric magic instead of harmed by it -- after all, they're digital).4,000 Moon Coins
What a WhirlIs it me or are there more whirlpools south of the Forever Fall than usual? What are those Killer Crabs doing down there? Go check it out and stop them.The Killer Crabs (crabs the size of orcas that have four claws and swing chains made of shell) are picking fights with each other, which is causing more whirlpools than usual. Characters who try to break it up will be attacked themselves, so they'll have to fight the crabs to help with the issue.3,000 Moon Coins

You Never Know, You Never KnowWatch out when you're fighting those Lava Littles. The full-sized Lava Monsters might be roaming around too.This quest only unlocks after defeating a Lava Little (all four bodies). Lava Monsters are larger and do not split, but the lava and rock they're made from are strong and they tend to destroy everything in their path.7,000 Moon Coins

Get Good, ScrubAn eccentric mage is trying to revive the old practice of using magic to make anything (anything?) edible. Thing is, the potion for that used some plants found in the scrub in the Savannah Daze... which is now a burned-out wasteland. Can you try and see if the plant still exists? Take a cutting if you can.The plant was a dry, spiny shrub and most of them have been wiped out, but a small number are still growing out there. Even characters who come back empty-handed will get the reward if they document that they tried -- the mage is well aware that the plant must be almost extinct at best.1,000 Moon Coins
Talk To Your PlantsThere's a plant that grows in the jungle that blooms beautifully when you talk to it, especially if you tell it about yourself. Get it to bloom and harvest some flowers!The plant in question has very large flowers that bloom when someone tells them true stories from the heart.1,500 Moon Coins

Wake Up!One of the roads in the Rain Jungle is blocked off by a Unicorn Elephant taking a nap on the road. Try and wake it up, we need to get through there! ...Without getting it mad, preferably.Touching a Unicorn Elephant's horn causes a confusion status effect. It may rampage if woken up violently or loudly, so characters are urged to wake it up without upsetting it or otherwise move it out of the way somehow.600 Moon Coins

Goop It UpWith the earthquakes and storms in the Autumn Segment, there's something dropping out of the sky and wreaking havoc in the grasslands outside of the forested areas. We can't gather anything like this. But be warned -- they're likely highly dangerous.The "something" is strange armoured eggs, about 2m/6'6" tall, covered in a gross black goop. They seem to be tanking physical and magical attacks alike, but each hit they take will move them closer to cracking open.5,000 Moon Coins
Muck and Mire
CW/TW: Possible suffocation/strangulation
An exploration late last year found some weird mud monsters in the Crystal Mines. They'll need to be cleared out or at least cut down substantially if we want to reclaim the mines.The caves have mud monsters called Mudtacles that grow tentacles out of the dirt to attack. They're immune to earth manipulation and will try to drag characters off through a wall of mud or strangle them, but can be harmed by other forms of magic.3,500 Moon Coins

Cracked the Case
CW/TW: Earthquakes
Forcing the eggs to crack open seems to be letting weird monsters loose -- and they're making the ground less stable! Get rid of them before it gets worse!This boss only appears when one or more mystery eggs has cracked open. A strange creature will hatch and start to pound on the ground, causing more cracks. A massive patchwork monster with fur, gills, robotic parts, and a face that's always in shadow, it seems determined to destroy everything it can. Because it looks like it came from a nightmare and because of the relation to the recent dream delve, the guilds name these creatures Nightcrushers.9,500 Moon Coins
Mired in the Mines
CW/TW: Involuntary transformation
Watch out for if a Mudtacle drags you into the mud. It's got a strong advantage there, and it can absorb into your body too! Make sure to get the whole room -- believe me!This quest only unlocks if characters are captured or chase a Mudtacle into a wall of earth or mud. They'll emerge in a room completely made of mud where the Mudtacles will seemingly respawn from any surface when defeated; in fact, the whole room is the Mudtacle's body. Completely destroying it is possible with enough firepower. However, it will burst on defeat, and if its remains cover someone enough, the mud will absorb into their skin and it will begin the slow process of trying to corrupt them into a new Mudtacle as they return to town. (This transformation is known and curable, so characters will be able to prevent it if they report it, though anyone who wants to play with characters sprouting mud tentacles at inopportune moments until they get the cure is welcome to do so.)8,000 Moon Coins

Constitution CheckWe’ve been getting reports of some strange fungi swelling to an unusually large size near to the Mushroom Sanctuary. When we try to get rid of them they burst, and some of our people have been knocked unconscious. If the guilds could send some people with strong stomachs and steady nerves to investigate, we’d be happy to reward them! Oh, and… if you could bring back a few intact? We’ll pay well for those.The Burstcaps store pressure as they mature, and improper harvesting causes them to explode in a cloud of spores that temporarily weakens stamina and blurs vision. Ones that explode close to others will cause an unfortunate chain reaction. Freeze them with seasonal powers or another method for best results.500 Moon Coins per sample
You're a FireworkIt's not just gemstones that can be mined in the Autumn Segment! We're looking for minerals for the Solstice fireworks. Please gather the ones on this list!While the minerals are all accessible, some monsters may still be lurking.2,000 Moon Coins

Fail, My LifeWe've just dug up some stories of a clearing in the forest in the Autumn Segment that releases pressure held in. We have no idea what that means.

The Spice [ Click to Expand ]

The Heat Is OnThe Spicy Gacha Restaurant is taking full advantage of how many people are flocking into the Underground Mall to escape the heat up in Nightwake. They've set up tables in various areas, giving out free mochi ice creams and regular mochi to adults who pass by along with coupons for the restaurant to be used "when you come down." Come down from what? Wait, I remember the last time they gave out ice cream...Much like the other food at the Spicy Gacha Restaurant (not to be confused with the regular Gacha Restaurant), the mochi have a magical effect. In this case, they cause characters to experience heat-like symptoms for the day, regardless of species. Characters will receive one of each, so if they eat both, the effect lasts two days.Mochi, mochi ice cream, coupon for free meal at the Spicy Gacha Restaurant
It's For Charity, Okay?Otherworlders have shown us that kissing booths are a very profitable idea when it comes to gathering charity donations. So we've come up with a fantastic new model for donation gathering with something called a sexy calendar. Come try on costumes or wear your own clothes, or only some, or nothing at all. We want to take dressed, semi-undressed, tasteful nudes, and full nudity pictures. All models will be compensated, as will their chosen charities!Characters can pick themes, come with outfits in mind, or explore the costume closet provided by the quest organizers. Be assigned to a group, do photos alone, or pair up with some of your fellow Otherworlders for duo pictures. Have a fun time, take some spicy pictures, earn money for charity, and get paid yourselves!500 Moon Coins, one free calendar for August 218-July 219, proceeds from the character's calendar going to their charity of choice

This questboard is on an app on the phone and is only unlockable if your character has received a (handwaved) code for it from one of the crime organizations or just criminals of Nightwake. Another way is to hack your way in if you know it exists.
You don't need mod permission to do these, just make sure you find a reasonable way for your character to get there.

Mind testing it on some poor saps out in the city?The curse is a good old-fashioned sleeping spell that can be broken by a kiss of true love. The kiss need not be literal, the love need not be romantic, and the love need not be requited.5,000 Moon Coins

Golden Cheese Cookie | Cookie Run Kingdom | Summer

[personal profile] ainteasy_beingcheesy 2026-06-02 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Chests Aplenty

[ Being the almost literal epitome of greed, Golden Cheese Cookie can't help but take a peek into every single chest she sees. She doesn't plan on stealing anything, she just wants to look at pretty trinkets!

But by the time she'd come across her third mimic, her patience is well and truly done. She throws a temper tantrum in the air, firing off her golden arrows and not exactly making sure they're landing where they're supposed to... ]


INSOLENT WRETCHES! They are mock me this way, over and over again?! If I never see another chest in my life, it'll be too soon! THE GOLDEN GODDESS SHALL NOT BE INSULTED IN THIS MANNER!

If You're Sad And You Know It

[ Ignoring that nonsense above, GCC is usually a very cheerful person, and she knows it. So when she hears that monsters that feed off of joy need taking care of? She's already there, prepared to use herself as bait. She's more than eager to lead them away, while you take them down from behind.

But maybe we should hope that, for once, her joy isn't infectious...? Or maybe her arrogance will make her too much of an easy target? ]


Oh, is that as fast as you can go? I've seen Cheesebirds with limps that can move quicker than you. And the worse off you are, the happier I am. Isn't that a delicious conundrum~? Hahahahaha~!

Fly To The Sky

[ For this prompt, you won't find GCC... not yet, anyway. You see, her dear little Cheesebird has been wanting to help out their precious queen. So they snuck away from mom - er, their goddess, and headed off to the lair of the firebirds. They're birds, it's a bird, it'll work out right?

... The Cheesebird is as small as a fingernail and has no powers. Please stop them from getting turned into melted cheese. Chirp chirp. ]


Talk To Your Plants

[ A chance to earn coins and help people merely by talking about herself? Hot damn! GCC could sit there all day and babble about her world, her kingdom, and her own godly greatness all day... and she likely might. ]

And with that, the monsters were slain, all thanks to me and my golden radiance!

[ ... Except the flowers won't bloom unless she's totally honest. So after a beat of hesitation, she grumbles. ]

... I suppose the others did their part... I may have needed some healing from Pure Vanilla Cookie, and perhaps Hollyberry Cookie shielded me once or twice...

But of course! I don't just call anyone my friends, after all.

[ She hesitates. After the whole "you're not a burden to your friends, let yourself be sad, and I never hold back my feelings" deal at Rinku's place... it'd be rather hypocritical to not speak of her true emotions now, wouldn't it? She grumbles at the trap she accidentally placed on herself. ]

... Speaking of... White Lily Cookie... is difficult. She is both a beloved friend... and someone who has done horrible things, to me and my people.
roundandaround: Shamed. (i said i was sorry)

It's a long, complicated story. I... will tell you pieces.

[ Sitting on the ground, she pulls her legs to herself. ]

... When I was a child, I made friends who stuck with me for a long time. As we grew, and found the power of the Soul Jams, we would travel the world and help those who needed it. We were as close as family. I always thought... we could tell each other everything. And that we knew everything about each other.

But I was wrong. White Lily Cookie was hiding so much from us. She was starving for knowledge - why we were baked, why Cookie bodies are so fragile... and what happened to the Witches that created us.

... It was this knowledge that corrupted her.
roundandaround: Hesitant. (uhhh)

[personal profile] roundandaround 2026-06-06 03:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Like the Soul Jam you told me about! The one you're wearing!

[Rinku brightens... but oh, right, this is important. She nods along, resting a hand against Golden Cheese Cookie's back.]

You were made by Witches... When you first came here, you were asking about them, right? And you were worried about why people baked cookies that aren't people like you are. Is that why?
ainteasy_beingcheesy: (Gold Crocodiles)

[personal profile] ainteasy_beingcheesy 2026-06-07 10:31 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. You see, our world... our people... we were all created by the Witches. In the written legends, they resemble you humans quite a lot. But that's all we have to go on - for the witches left us centuries ago. We don't know why. Some have spent their entire lives trying to understand what they were thinking - why they made us, and why they left.

[ She scoffs, turning her head. ]

Not me! Why should I care about beings that abandoned us? I don't care if the witches ever showed up again.
roundandaround: Teasing wink, wearing menhera fashion. (i'll make it)

[personal profile] roundandaround 2026-06-07 03:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[The buds on the plant are starting to bloom. Rinku makes a worried noise.]

That's okay. Whatever reason they baked you guys, I'm glad they did. Because it means you exist! I'm sorry it did so much to your friend.
ainteasy_beingcheesy: (Gold Crocodiles)

[personal profile] ainteasy_beingcheesy 2026-06-08 09:42 am (UTC)(link)
... Not as sorry as the rest of us. For her quest to find out what happened... she used forbidden magic. I still don't entirely understand how it happened, but she went through something no Cookie has ever done... she was re-baked. And as a result, she was split in two.

White Lilly Cookie... and Dark Enchantress Cookie.
roundandaround: Realizing something that was obvious to everyone else. (...oh yeah.)

[personal profile] roundandaround 2026-06-08 02:29 pm (UTC)(link)

[1) Going to the Dogs]

[Rinku did a quick search on "how to train sled dogs" before coming out here, so she's picked up one (1) dog and is petting it gently and hooking it up to a small sled.]

Okay, so everything said you gotta start by teaching endurance and making sure the dog's healthy. How do you think we gotta do that?

[Rinku ran straight off to the reception after blessing the wedding, changing into a DJ outfit on the way. She starts setting up her booth when one of the bridal party passes her a list and leaves. Rinku takes the list and blinks.]

This isn't an actual request list, right? All it says is "don't play the chicken dance" and "meme song"...

[3) If You're Sad and You Know It -> Someone's Been Lifting]

[Rinku looks around, sticking out in the Winter Segment in a brightly coloured, mismatched snowsuit and snow goggles (not to mention the whole glowing thing).]

They said I'd be perfect for this one, but those things are kinda scary sometimes, huh?

[4) All I Want for Solstice]

[Picking flowers, though? Rinku is happy as can be picking all sorts of flowers... although she pauses at some pink spider flowers.]

Okay, I know the red ones are a death flag so not those, but what about the other colours? Are they still good?

[According to whatever floriography guide your character may have consulted beforehand, they mean "elope with me."]

[5) Goop it Up -> Cracked the Case]

These are... really, really gross.

[Rinku sniffs and vaguely pokes at an egg with her sword.]

But if we gotta get rid of them to save the Autumn Segment... or at least make it less worse, right?

[6) Wildcard]

[Up for just about anything! These especially, though the NSFW quests will need to be taken to inbox or a separate log to follow.]

🍂 Constitution Check 🍂

[In Rider's mind, she certainly fit the bill of someone resilient with a strong stomach! So here she was, having mostly recovered from the dreamscape mission, heading out to hold her own against some fungi.

Soon enough, they made their way in... She tilted her head down to listen out for any of the resident Fae seeking to capture them. Nothing. Good.]


I cannot hear any monsters. ...Can you see any of the mushrooms matching the quest's description?

[Her snake-like tail twitched as she spoke.]


☀️ Get in the Game ☀️

These creatures are a little... irritating.

[Evidently, all the sound cues that came with the video-game-like monsters had come with them as well- little 'boing' sounds when they jumped, that sort of thing. Sure it was useful, but Rider was sure it would grate on her patience soon enough.]

...Shall we clear them out quickly? I would rather the local fauna were not disrupted for too long.

[A little frown. A reticence to admit her actual reason for taking on this quest- a feeling of responsibility to the large number of baby snakes that had made this place their home since she'd lurked here as Gorgon nearly three years ago.]


☀️ Four Could Be One -> You Never Know, You Never Know ☀️

...If these creatures are weaker than their predecessors, perhaps they are easily petrified.

[Rider was geared up in her usual Servant gear, snake-like tail swishing behind her and a nail-like chain weapon held loosely in one golden-clawed hand.

It certainly wouldn't be the first time fighting fiery summer-segment monsters, and she wanted to test whether or not she was stronger than back then. Although, she thought, if it were as simple as petrifying the lot of them... it wouldn't be much of a challenge.]



🌸 Eye See You 🌸

Centioculi, hm... I cannot sense anything amiss just yet.

[Not that she'd realise it yet, but it would turn out that questing whilst blindfolded would prove very useful in this specific quest.]

Perhaps we should follow the river downstream?


✨ Wildcard ✨

[OOC: I'm up for most things, just let me know! Especially if someone wants to do horny ice cream, I can send something to an inbox.]

Maybe. Your magic's really strong, after all, Rider-chan.

[Ah, Rider, making Rinku's minidress armour actually look sensible. Rinku grips her sword and looks out in the distance.]

Think they're out there? Something is.
