The Demon Story Part 2

*Tarold and his friends arrive in Maijing and they explained to the guard how they must see the major chief, him agreeing and letting them in. The first thing they do is go to a trinket shop in the city where they buy cool items: Tarold buys a wooden staff, Wilbur buys an iron gauntlet, Charlie buys a telescope, and Larwin buys a cape. Then they go eat some food and have dessert after.*

*However, a portal opens up right in the city square and out comes a giant mushroom monster that starts to terrorize everyone. Tarold and his friends try to stand up to it, but are quickly beaten. They are saved by the city knights who drive the monster into the wilderness. They are angry about how useless they were and then decide to go to major chief Menshin’s tower at the top floor: that being the observatory.*

*They find him there and they explain why they are there and what they are trying to do. He understands them and helps them out by giving them powerful tools that legendary people of the past have used. Wilbur was given the golden gauntlet of Darinsol who helped win the war against he cave elves. He used his gauntlet to punch his enemies miles away and even cause earthquakes. Charlie obtains the Jeweled Staff of Smorc, another person to help in the war. He used the staff to shoot powerful laser beams out of it which would burn holes in his enemies. Larwin gets Winthroff’s cape, same as Darinsol and Smorc, which was used to fly in the air at high speeds. Finally, Tarold is given the Silver Blade of Selenthad which was used by Selenthad himself thousands of years ago to fight against the demons of the caves.*

*Menshin then gives them one extra item: the Platinum Bow of Falisent, from another war legend, who used the bow to create golem constructs which fight for him. They ask why they would need a fifth tool if there are only four of them and Menshin says that they will give it to the next addition to their group, whenever he comes. They all thank Menshin for his gifts and he tells them that they must go to the Boondrak Mountains, the old home of the cave elves, if they wish to complete their quest.*

*They start on their way and go to a local tavern to get food. There they find no one other than Moose, who Tarold and his friends are surprised and delighted to see again. They ask how he is here and what happened to him and he explains that he too went through a portal and was spat out close to Maijing. He was very confused at first and then saw two knights being attacked by a wild beast, saving them from it with his incredible strength. They thanked him and even let him join them as a knight. He accepted, learned everything about Hancinia that Tarold and the gang learned, and worked there ever since. He discovered that he uses yellow delharia, the delharia of bonds.*

*Tarold then urges Moose to join their group and go on an adventure with them; Moose accepts his offer gratefully. Tarold then gives Moose the Platinum Bow of Falisent, saying how he was supposed to give it to their next group member and explains to him what it does, and Moose becomes very excited over it.*

*They all leave Maijing together and start walking away to the Zakron Plateau and night fell Tarold said that they should set up camp for the night, to which Charlie said it might be dangerous. Tarold says that nothing could surprise them in an open field, but then, to prove him wrong, the giant mushroom monster from earlier attacks them.*

*It shoots out five mini monsters and each of them handles one mini monster. They used their new items in the battle to their advantage and defeated the mini monsters. They all then start to fight the giant monster and devise a plan to kill it. Their plan works and Tarold ends it with stabbing the monster in a vulnerable sack on its head full of spinal fluid while the others distract it. The sword causes it to disintegrate into shiny light particles.*

*They celebrate their victory, but realize that Wilbur was hurt in the battle and they go over to help him. When none of them know what to do, Tarold’s blade all of a sudden starts to glow and it then shoots a beam of light at Wilbur’s injury, healing it completely and causing Wilbur to awaken from unconsciousness.*

*They are immediately confused and ask Tarold what happened and he says it was just instinct that drove it and Wilbur thanks Tarold for saving his life. Tarold realizes that the power of white delharia is healing, since he just healed Wilbur when he was gravely injured.*

*They go to sleep for the night and when they awaken, they continue walking to their next destination.*
