Volume 3: Chapter 3

The beeping of medical equipment buzzes through the tense atmosphere, a seemingly fatal wound comes out of ___’s head.

Unnamed Doctor: I’m afraid there’s nothing to be done about this now…

Falconer: Will ___ survive?

Unnamed Doctor: He will, but he will suffer significant brain damage

Juni: What do you mean doc?

Unnamed Doctor: I’m afraid he’s nothing but a husk now

___: (opens his eyes), I’m…a husk? Is that my name…

Suddenly, Husk awakens as Indica shakes him back to life.

Falconer: Hey…you scared us man?

Husk: Nothing…but a Husk…my name…is Husk…

Indica: Yeah…your name is Husk

Hudson: I didn’t think those Light Monsters would have screwed him up this badly

Atlantic: So he’s losing grasp of his memories?

Husk: I have…memories

Falconer: You do

Cosma: None of my magic could understand why Husk is losing even more of memories

Husk: Memory…I have a memory…

Viridian: I don’t think he’s forgetting

Husk: I have a name…a name…that’s…Husk…no…that’s…not…my…name!

Falconer: Huh!

Indica: Wait…he’s actually remembering?

Cosma: Holy heck!

Suddenly, a massive beam of light shoots into The White World

Viridian: Uh…where did that come from?

Cosma: District 7, let’s go

Atlantic: So did Husk always eat people?

Go to District 7

Once you get there, you’ll see a massive beam of light emanating from a bell inside a building

Hudson: Is this a beacon or something?

Cosma: No, it looks like a portal

Viridian: So it’s time to go to The White World?

Atlantic: Is that really wise, we’ll lose contact with Iseri and Xen?

Indica: Well, there’s more of us? What do you we have to lose?

Falconer: Our lives?

Atlantic: Our sanity?

Husk: Our memories??

Hudson: Well, what choice do we have, let’s go

Indica’s group enters the building to look at The Bell

Hudson: Well, do we ring it?

Atlantic: I volunteer

Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.

Atlantic wacks The Bell and it grows a pair of spider legs and crawls away

Atlantic: What the fuck?

Indica: Your first curse word!! I’m so proud

Cosma: Well..she speaks for all of us

Husk: GRAAH GET BACK HERE BELL (he runs after it)

Cosma: Let’s run after him

The Party then fights The Bell

When you win, The Bell disintegrates into a portal the party can walk through

Falconer: Well…out of everything I’ve experienced, that was by far the weirdest, and I watched Husk eat a dead body full of coins once

Indica: Please…never speak again

Husk: Coin..do not taste like flesh

Hudson: It would be weird if coins did taste like flesh

Viridian: Do you guys even hear yourselves

Cosma: Screw yall I’m entering the portal now so this moment is over quicker

Indica: Ok I’m coming too

The Party enters The White World

Cosma: This brings back…unpleasant memories

Hudson: So…what exactly is this place

Viridian: I’ve been before and I have no idea

Hudson: Hopefully we don’t have to kill anymore Bell-Spider-Things

Suddenly, every Bell in the vicinity, grew spider legs

Atlantic: Hudson, take this as a sign the universe itself hates you

Hudson: I think I will….

Indica’s Group fights off all The Bell Monsters

Indica: Well..where is Ohakla?

Cosma: Maybe she’ll show up

Suddenly, a shot of light appears in front of them, revealing Ophallacean

Ophallacean: Those..people and (He sees Indica’s group), uhm who the hell are you?

Cosma: Who are you?

Ophallacean: Hey, I see dead Bells, I should kill you for this

Atlantic: No thanks

Husk: GRAAH DEATH

Fight Ophallacean

When you win

Ophallacean: These HUMANS ae so annoying!!

He runs away

Viridian: Cosma…be a dear and take us to Ohakla

Cosma: It would be an honor

As Indica’s group travels further and further into The White World, we pan to Gladian’s Group who is now in District 15

Olivia: So..when will we run into Ophallacean

Ehl: I have no idea

Vendil: Man…it’s taking forever

Atoll: I would fire a dart in the dark and have a better chance of hitting that guy square in the balls

Gladian: Well, uh, maybe I don’t make the best plans

Beline: No kidding Mr Planner

Zkn: Well, I liked it.

Gladian: Thanks Zkn

Zkn: No problem

Vendil: Alright, well we’re too deep in now to call it quits, let’s find him

Go through District 14

When you reach District 15

Zkn: Well, while we’re not doing anything important, hey Vendil?

Vendil: What’s up man?

Zkn: Can I speak to the Octopus

Vendil: Are you referring to Gorbuch?

Zkn: Yeah

Vendil: Uhm..ok…

Gorbuch begins using Vendil’s body as a vessel to talk

Gorbuch: Hello Centennial, what do you wish to talk about

Zkn: If you and Ehl (Points to Ehl) worked together, could you two create a time portal?

Gorbuch: Theoretically, yes

Zkn: Ok thanks?

Gorbuch gives up control of Vendil back to him

Vendil: Time Travel? You must be crazy Zkn?

Ehl: What would you even want with that?

Zkn: Well we are fighting an enemy who claims to be so far beyond our intellectual reach, we might need to resort to such measures in order to defeat her.

Ehl: Huh, I never thought about it like that

Atoll: I think..for some reason…I feel like that has worked before

Beline: Well I don’t like it…

Zkn: Well..it’s just a thought…feel free to disregard it

Go through District 15

Halfway Through, Okhala storms through the walls, looking wounded

Okhala: DAMN MORTALS, THEY GOT ME GOOD?

Okhala looks at Gladian’s Group

Okhala: MORTALS, TREMBLE BEFORE OKHALA, THE MONSTROUS AND-

Olivia: Tremble with fear?

Atoll: Olivia can snark guys! She’s just like me for real

Gladian: We’re a lively bunch aren’t we

Beline: I’m honestly not a fan

Okhala: STOP YOUR POSTURING AND-

Zkn: And what? Listen to you?

Olivia: (breaks into uncontrollable laughter)

Okhala: I WILL KILL YOU

Battle against Okahala

When you win

Okhala: I HATE YOU PLANET EARTH

Okhala runs through walls in an attempt to escape

Olivia: We give chase?

Gladian: We give chase

Gladian’s Group chases after Okhala

She disappears and they are left at a broken bench with a floating bell over it

Atoll: Ooh guys, I can..ring it

Atoll fires a dart at The Bell, and The Bell grows Spider-Legs and leads around

Gladian: Erm..what in the hell is this?

Olivia: Bell Spiders, tricky little devils

Beline: Why?

Olivia: Well you see they-

Zkn: She meant why do they exist

Atoll: Uhm guys…

Gladian: What is it Atoll

Atoll: Do any of you have extra underwear? Bell Spiders are scary?

Vendil: Dude…..

When you win, a portal opens from it’s corpse

Gladian: Sick, we found an in

Beline: Let’s get in there then, like in there right heckin now

Gladian’s group walks through the portal
