Slowly sliding over the grass of a forest as it left a slimy trail was a blue blob of goop with a core in it, a slime to be exact. The golem didn't know where the slime queen was, so it figured that this random slime might led it to the queen. The only problem was how slow the slime was. Poopy had an overwhelming urge to kick it to make it go faster, if not for how it had seen the slime devour a poor rabbit in seconds.
"Hey slime! Can you go faster?" asked Poopy. It knew that the damned thing could go faster since it saw how fast the slime moved while chasing the rabbit.
The slime ignored the golem, continuing merrily. Why would a mindless creature respond to language? But Poopy had other thoughts. Perhaps it was like Buggy, unable to understand English? Ah, but it could now communicate with Buggy after it tamed the insect. That's it! A light bulb lit above the golem's head.
"Tame!" shouted the golem.
Benevolent taming is not effective on mindless creatures.
"Dammit!" cursed Poopy.
Now it had no choice but to wait for this 'snail' to slow reach its destination! Who knew if it was even heading for the queen?
It was at this moment when the slime grew excited, shooting forward at the speed it had displayed while chasing the rabbit earlier.
"Hey! I asked you to go faster, but not this fast!" Poopy was under the impression that the slime had responded to it but decided to be sassy.
Fortunately, slimes leave trails, so the golem followed. It thought to itself about how silly the slime was to forget that its body left trails. Soon, Poopy saw a huge pinkish slime surrounded by little blue slimes much like the one it followed being attacked by dozens of people. Apparently, the blue slime the golem followed finally got close enough to sense the distress of its mother, charging in to help.
"Heal!" shouted one of them. A man in white robe raised his staff, bringing the health of the party back to comfortable levels.

"NOOOOOO!" came the anguished cries of the party.
They had spent an hour fighting the boss only for it to be stolen by a random monster! In rage, they charged toward the offender... only to realise the insect had taken off with a pile of dung attached to its feet.
"Fireball!" a mage tossed a ball of flames.
The moment Poopy saw the attack, it knew that was bad news. So it did what it did best: tossing poop at things. The moment the football sized ball of poop hit the fireball in midair, there was a beautiful explosion of brown and red, raining flaming poop on the screaming adventurers.
As they wiped off the hot stuff, the adventurers swore to themselves that they would hunt the insect and the poop monster down to the end of the world!

Poopy soon reached the Old Ruins again. The same statue was still floating, albeit looking a lot more tired. With the help of Buggy, Poopy made its way over the walls and back to the pink moss.
"Splendid! My thanks to you for vanquishing the menace!" said the mouth statue.
