A beating blizzard battles the camp that hosts The Five Members of this Century Corps Titan Tracking Unit, the snow tears through the tents and icicles fall and crash to the ground. The members of the expedition are holed inside sturdy encampments
Ossie: So…why are we all the way out here again?
Uzi: Well isn’t it obvious…we’re still tracking Fyvotoh also known as The Frigid.
Yve: But the air is biting and we’re so close to death while we’re out here…
Havana: That may be true…but it’s still our duty to find these titans…Ouzcoebr is still at the edge of the Alaskan coast looking for the darn thing, it cloaks itself in powerful blizzards like this…
Ossie: That’s right…Titans often use extreme weather to mask their scent.
Havana: Yup!
Uzi: I’m still training my aim, to put a special tranquilizer in the beast to slow it down.
Yve: And?
Havana: Take very detailed notes!
Yve: Ok…but we fought the one that destroyed my village when Nori was with us, why wouldn’t we fight this one?
Uzi: We ARE gonna fight it!
Havana: And take notes!!
Yve: Why both?
Havana: Well we want to build a database on these creatures and so the best way to get a handle of their danger is to fight them head on and take notes while we punch it!!
Yve: Ok…that makes sense…
Ossie: I hope we can minimize civilian casualties this time?
Yve: The previous monster destroying my village wasn’t your fault
Ossie: Well I know..but I still don’t want anyone to be hurt
Yve: I understand that…
Suddenly, The Party’s radio gets a buzz from Ouzocebr
Ouzcoebr (Static): Hey guys…a large creature just moved past one of my checkpoints…the blizzard is also getting stronger
Havana: Radio your position…where are you!!
Ouzcoebr (Static): I’m around 150 clicks from your location, get there soon before I lose site of the beast
Havana: Alright…we’ll be on our way…
Yve: So they saw the creature?
Ossie: Yup, guess we’re careening towards a fight
Havana: Alright, grab your things, let’s go get this beast
Uzi: Ready
The Party leaves the camp and begins setting out through the freezing snow and frozen solid ground.
Yve: Do you think Ouzoebr is fighting the titan alone?
If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.
Havana: Knowing them…probably not but let’s get there anyway
Begin Dense Forest 1
When you’re 50% of the way there
Ossie: How many clicks left?
Havana: 75, I think…
Ossie: Ok so Ouzocebr is nearby
Uzi: Let’s find them and FIGHT this thing
Yve: Punch, pow pow.
Resume
When you’re 75% of the way there, a strange being cloaked in snow and ice appears
Ossie: What the heck is that thing?
Havana: It’s a Winter Wraith, creatures that often try to kill weary souls who move too far into the wilderness
Uzi: Darn it get out of our way ya stupid wraith
Yve: Tell it boss!!
Fight The Winter Wraith
When you win, even more appear
Uzi: Ok…let’s just go…
Havana: Yeah we need to get Ouzcoebr now!
The Party moves through the group of Winter Wraiths and slide down a nearby snowy slope
Resume Dense Forest 1
When you’ finally get there, the party comes across a treeless, cliffed coast, where ice and fog cover the ocean and land, Ouzcoebr is looking across the waves at a seemingly massive quadruped creature who looks like it’s made of Ice
Havana: Ouzcoebr! Status on Fyvotoh?
Ouzcoebr: It’s around 25 clicks away from us…how do we engage it?
Havana: Allow me to do that
Havana loads a special flaming round into her helmet canon and fires it high into the sky, Fyvotoh turns around and looks at The Party and roars loudly in defiance
Uzi: We got it!
Havana: I also got something else?
Havana unveils a strange contraption she was carrying
Ossie: Uhm what does that do?
Havana: It allows us to amplify the powers of our attacks, it contains a power Present Power Reality Anchor or PPRA. Loren, Whoyn and Thosmrr helped me build it back at the guild.
Havana places down The PPRA and it’s powerful glow attracts Fyvotoh to it
Yve: I’m getting in the first hit
Uzi: Wai-
Yve runs up to Fyvotoh and punches it right in the face, chipping it’s tooth, it just roars angrily in response. Yve keeps angrily punching the creature, doing minimal damage as the creature violently shakes the cliffside in an attempt to knock Yve into the freezing cold water
Uzi: Alright I’m up now
Uzi pierces the skin of the beast with a powerful tranquilizer dart, sedating it
Havana: Ossie, let’s attack it now
Fight against Fyvotoh The Frigid
When it is at 85%
Yve: It’s certainly a hardy opponent
Ouzcoebr: The beastlings enjoy a real challenge.
Havana: Remember, we don’t want to kill it, we just want to weaken it
Ossie: The weakened Titan will be easier for people to defend against
Yve: Ok ok but POW
Resume against Fyvotoh
When it is at 70%, the fight stops as Fyvotoh tries to run
Havana: Drats
Ouzcoebr:
Havana grabs The PPRA and The Party gives chase
Yve: Hey Ossie!
Ossie: Yeah?
Yve: Think fast
Yve grabs Ossie and jumps straight onto Fyvotoh
Havana: Yve what do you think you’re doing?
Yve: C’mon Ossie let’s sock this beast
Ossie: Uh wha-
Yve punches Fyvotoh repeatedly in the side while holding onto it for dear life
Ossie: Yve what the fuck do I do?
Yve: I don’t know
Ossie makes slime to stick himself and Yve to the beast while Yve continues to punch it. The wails of the beast subside
Yve: Hey why the heck are my punches not as strong as before?
Ossie: We’re far away from the PPRA ya freaking dummy
Yve: Oh dammit
Fyvotoh continues to trash around, down there Ossie sees a somewhat large boat being torn apart by waves
Ossie: I got a plan
Yve: Si-
Ossie ends the slime attaching them to Fyvotoh and they fall from incredibly high up directly onto the wooden boat, indirectly saving the only passenger from falling overboard
Sailor: Hey w-
Ossie: Hey no time for intros this is our boat now
Sailor: Oh ok
Yve: Ossie w-
Ossie: Shut up, you threw me onto that monster without a second thought, I’m in charge now
Sailor: Oh thanks for saving my life
Ossie: Oh no problem
Ossie sails the boat through the legs of the monster and sails ahead
Ossie: Yve, keep on the lookout for Winter Wraiths
Yve: Ok…got it
Start Straits 1
When you’re halfway done
Sailor: Hey uh?
Yve: What?
Sailor: Need help?
Yve: Yeah sure
The Sailor joins your party
Yve: What’s your name?
Sailor: Kutok
Resume Straits 1
When you’re done
Ossie: Hey I’m gonna crash the boat
Kutok: Huh
Yve: WHY?
Ossie: Just trust me
Ossie swerves The Boat onto land, evading the monster
