[QUOTE="Jfdlsjfd, post: 9571921, member: 42856"] You're a psychic because that's exactly what happens here. There is no way (even by taking an entirely different route) to avoid incurring HP losses, though they can be minimal if well geared and take the shortest path: 6 HP. On the other hand the sequence we're right now is linear. And fraught with perils. Especially when it occurred so shortly before. She says that it's "a great monster that lurks in the sea below the ice. Its body is vast, with a single eye in the midst of eight long tentacles... Oh, that hideous eye..." and her voice trails off. At the moment of sunset, her eyes close as death comes for her at last. You are sorry for her. [I]I can see this moment being moving. Especially if we hadn't been able to wield life-saving power willy nilly.[/I] If you wish to take her fur cloak and/or gloves from her body, you can do so. [I]Spoken in a true adventurer fashion. We felt sorry for approximately 2.37 seconds before getting back to our sense, overcoming grief and reconnecting to our body-looting prana. I really don't know what to make with this suggestion. [/I] I decide to leave the items -- they are not named -- and continue walking toward the coast. At least, we're warned that somewhere below us, the Wytch-Kyng has posted a monster that might assault us from below, with hideous tentacles that will soon pierce the ice to strike at us... [I]So we can hop on our flying carpet and avoid this thread by getting 30 meters above ground?[/I] ... and at some point, we are assaulted by 8 tentacles piercing the ice.
