(YBA) Diaochan in Wicht's lair alone

[Ciaran]

(The only time you get an auto-win is if your opponent's move matches one of your masteries, or if you play a Chair Shot. Otherwise, even with Perfect Mastery, you have to beat your opponent's move.)

I told you, I am looking for the werewolf den. These guys just attacked me and I had to defend myself. Two weren't difficult, you think I'd have a hard time with three?

 

[Wicht]

One of the orcs in the back mutters something about cannon fodder, kicking his feet on the ground. The orc next to him mutters consolingly and pats his friend on the back.

The smarter one, the one talking to Diaochan smiles suddenly and says, "Well sure, we can tell you how to get to the were-wolves the quick way. Go through this door," he indicates the door Diaochan had originally entered the room through. Head straight on through till you get to the garbage pile. There will be a rat hole leading to a huge pit, the garbage pit. You follow that down far enough it will take you straight to hell, but you only want to follow the path down for four rat holes. At the fourth rat hole below you go in and you will be in the were-wolves garbage room. If you see their chief, his name is Lord Fuzzpuppy and he gets mad if you don't address him properly."

 

[Wicht]

Ciaran is right. Perfect Mastery does not guarantee a hit, only chair shot does that, it merely guarantees that if you hit you will do at least 4 hits worth of damage. Which is why it is still best to use the power judiciously.

 

[tleilaxu]

Fuzzpuppy huh? And what are you three gonna do now?

 

[Wicht]

"We'll let ya go this time," says the smarter orc, "We know our place in the world and if ya're really on a mission for Lord Wicht we won't stop ya."

The others grin and nod.

 

[tleilaxu]

Diaochan backs away from the orcs and waits for them to leave, then she follows their instructions....

 

[Wicht]

The orcs stand and wait for Diaochan to leave. Eventually the two groups slowly back away together and Diaochan feels confident enough to re-enter the garbage room. The smell is still pretty bad. She enters tthe small tunnel and comes out once more at the pit. Going down the path, she passes three small tunnels leading off left into the earth and after she has circled the edge the enourmous pit twice, she comes at last to the fourth tunnel. It like the others is large enought to crawl through but only just.

 

[tleilaxu]

Diaochan enters the fourth tunnel....

 

[Wicht]

As Diaochan crawls down the tunnel, she realizes that something else is crawling towards her. With a strange squeak, the creature suddenly charges at her and diaochan has the impression of flashing teeth and rotting flesh as she tries to defend herself in the cramped quarters.

The cherry blossom wounds the atoll; waves away the storm of the settlement!
