Achievement: Good Show
Fair is fair, I’ve never seen a better show for free
It’s like you think you’ll outrun those thing eventually
I wish that you could see the stupid look on your dumb face
Well, I guess I’ll stick around to the end this time, just in case
Twig had little time for reading in his current state
Portal beasts appeared at an accelerating rate
Every time he managed to evade one creatures jaws
He’d find himself headed straight for another monster’s claws
But as he ran he noticed something changing in his heart
As the world filled up with things that could tear him apart
With every desperate step he learned about the strength he had
And some distraction from his last encounter made him glad
Out here he had no friends and family to worry for
No class or title holding back his efforts anymore
For a moment that felt like it could last forever
He now felt more at peace than he could even remember
All the time he’d spent in training his strength and magic

Was finally apparent, though his fate was still tragic
He felt the mana in the cold damp air as he ran on
As if the poison which had kept it from him was now gone
With every breath of forest air the mana in him grew
And in his single minded quest he had one thing to do
He used the power he could feel to move him through the trees
Pushing any monster which attacked away with ease
His panic even gave way to excitement for a while
With so much power in his hand, he couldn’t help but smile
He didn’t really have a destination as he ran
But running til he couldn’t was a fairly simple plan
After he was sure that sun would normally have set
He was quite surprised that he hadn’t been eaten yet
He looked behind and sure enough a horde of beasts were there
Joined by monsters he had never once seen anywhere

It stalks its prey in battlefields and targets those who run
Stand your ground, for it prefers to chase its prey for fun
It’s rare to see one anywhere, they value privacy
But it’s the last thing many wounded soldiers often see

From a distance it may look like a rabbit, but big
But this creature does a lot more than just jump and dig
It could rip a part a careless traveller or two
And there is a high chance it can run faster than you

A creature much to large to mistake for a normal snake
But if you do, it will be the last mistake you make
It’s venom fills your head with nightmares you’ll wish to unsee
But you’ll die in those bad dreams while it kills you quickly
“Well, I guess it’s too late to play dead or try to hide”
He chuckled and his speed began to fill him up with pride
He made a face to mock the monsters coming from behind
Caution and good judgement starting to clear from his mind
“Come on monsters, don’t tell me you’re all too out of shape!
Are you going to let such a tasty meal escape?”
They roared as they were joined by several other new monsters
But Twig’s newfound dexterity outclassed the new hunters
Achievement: Good News!
Hey, did I just get your attention? I have some news!
And it’s the kind of good news that the both of us could use
I realized that when I make you see this big blue screen
Well, in a moment, you’ll know exactly what I mean
Twig tried to avert his eyes from the blue message box
But as his god likely planned, he overlooked some rocks
And as he tripped and fell, he felt like fate itself had scoffed
But he was most surprised when he landed on something soft
