>Welcome to Avatar Quest. Here are the rules.

Decisions are made by vote. Each vote has a ten minute interval, after which, the option that receives the most votes it the one that is chosen.

There are no write-ins unless explicitly stated

Some options require rolls. In that event, rolls will be out of 100. Whether rolls succeed or fail is decided by the first three rolls. If one passes, then you succeed regardless of the other two. Rolls will really only occur during training, or when trying something new.
All decisions are final. If you regret voting for something, too bad. Think carefully before you make decisions.

Try to keep waifu bullshit to a minimum.

"Anything you'd like me to say to the Queen?" you ask Ren.

A look of pure rage and hatred appears on his face for a moment before he takes a deep breath.

"No, I...no thank you," he says.

"Does she have any allergies?" you ask.

"Not that I know of..." he answers, confused.

"Anything else I should know?" you ask.

"Not that I can think of. Just be careful," he says.

"I will," you promise. "You stay safe too, okay?"

He nods. "Of course."

"Goodbye," you tell him.

He smiles. "Farewell."

Behind you, your mother clears her throat.

"I hope you were planning on giving me a goodbye," she says to you.

You walk over to your mother and hug her tight. You soon feel her arms wrap around you, holding you in a warm embrace.

"I love you, mom," you tell her.

"I love you too, Shin," she replies. "So, so much."

She pulls back and holds you by the shoulders. Looking into her eyes, you see that they are full of concern, but also love and pride.

"Be safe," she pleads, the two words sounding more like a prayer to the spirits than a statement directed towards you.

Whole lot of people dying for a game set in the Avatar universe, man.

>>33701002
This ain't the Avatar universe man, its Soms universe, and its full of pain and death

>>33701002
Its Som anon. I'm honestly surprised everyone isn't dead yet

>>33701002
Keep in mind that plenty of people died in the show's universe, it just wasn't usually shown. Hell, the main character was the sole survivor of a genocide.

"I will," you promise.

She smiles at you, and nods. "Thank you."

"I told the Shark Turtle to listen to you," you explain. "So, try to keep him out of trouble."

This gets a laugh out of her. "I'll do my best," she assures you.

"But who's going to keep you out of trouble?" Bulo asks, walking over and throwing his arm around your shoulders.

>D. "I'm gonna miss launching you into the lake...speaking of..." Launch him into the lake.

>>33701048
Just looking at Aang's actions, he has to have killed hundreds if not thousands. So many people thrown off cliffs or into freezing arctic waters. And that fight at the Earth King's palace might not have killed the people he was fighting, but it definitely crippled them (though to be fair, that was mostly Toph's doing. Girl is hardcore). Hell, even in the final episode where he was all agonizing over the idea of killing Ozai, he still lit an airship on fire and crashed it into the rocks. For a pacifist, he is remarkably callous.

>>33701352
I'm not sure if you guys are trying to make him hate and turn his back on us, or if Somnius WON'T have that happen.

"I'll be fine," you assure him. "If there's anyone to worry about getting in trouble, it's you."

He smirks. "Who, me? I would never do anything to get into trouble."

"Right," you say, unconvinced. "Just don't say anything stupid about Felna while I'm gone, or her sister just might kill you."

He laughs. "Galda, kill me? Please, the girl is crazy about m-" he is cut off with a yelp as a dagger is suddenly stuck in the ground at his feet.

"Okay, fine, I get it!" he yells in Galda's direction. "You know, if this is the kind of thing I can look forward to while you're gone, I just might miss being launched into the lake."

"I'm gonna miss launching you into the lake, too," you admit.

"Why not do it one more time before you go?" Sonyo asks, coming to your side.

"Sure," you tell Sonyo.

Bulo flinches and squeezes his eyes shut, only to cautiously open them as Sonyo screams. The two of you watch Sonyo fly through the air and plummet into the lake with a loud splash.

"Oops, wrong brother," you comment.

Bulo laughs. "Okay, that was pretty funny!"

"Vengeance will be mine!" Sonyo calls from the lake.

"Less talking, more swimming!" Bulo calls to him before turning to you. "Seriously though, Shin; be careful. Try not to get into any trouble. I know that it has a tendency to find you, but just try your best to avoid it, alright?"

"I will," you promise.

He smiles. "Good."

"You do the same," you tell him. "Please, don't have any dagger scars when I come back."

He glances nervously in Galda's direction. "I will try my best. Trust me, getting cut by her is not on my list of things to do."

"One would have to question your sanity if it was," Lee comments, walking over to the two of you. "By the way, your brother is coming.....quickly."

Bulo looks towards the lake and his eyes go wide. He turns and runs towards the woods, Sonyo running swiftly after him.

Lee smiles at the two. "I wanted to wish you well before you left. I apologize that we never got to have our match. But, if you would still like to when you get back, we certainly can."

"I'd like that, Lee. Stay safe, and try not to let the craziness get you down while I'm gone. I'm pretty sure you're the sanest person here, it would be a shame if we lost that."

>>33702189
Sonyo ran after Bulo into the forest

>>33702235
Which is odd, because we're the one who did it. But Bulo is the buttmonkey, so everything's his fault.

>>33702187

"That sounds good," you tell him. "I hope to learn a lot from you."

He nods. "Likewise."

"Stay safe, and try not to let the craziness get you down while I'm gone. I'm pretty sure you're the sanest person here, it would be a shame if we lost that," you say.

He chuckles. "I'll do my best."

With that, he walks towards your brothers, who are now at the edge of the woods, hurling sand at one another.

"I didn't even throw you in the lake!" Bulo yells as he ducks under a glob of sand.

"Shut up and take your sand like a man!" Sonyo retorts, continuing to attack.

Bulo stomps on the ground and thrusts his fists downward, dropping Sonyo into a pit. He takes a deep breath, then runs back towards you. He doesn't stop, however, and keeps running until he nears the lake, then launches himself into it and swims deeper.

"Protect me, Shark Turtle!" he cries as he continues to swim.

Sonyo, meanwhile, lifts himself from the pit and gives chase. "There is no force on this world that can save you now!"

"Gotta give it to your brother," Galda comments, walking over to you and Lee. "He is relentless. Sonyo, I mean."

"That he is. I don't think he'll hold still long enough for me to actually say good bye to him. Speaking of good byes, I'll miss you, Galda. Even though you tried to kill me that one time. You're...well, I'm honestly not really sure how I feel about you, due to the aforementioned murder attempt, but I definitely respect you. We might not be friends, but I wouldn't want you to not be here when I get back. Stay safe."

"Bulo is relentless too, just in different ways," you point out.

"Believe me, I've noticed," she replies.

"Please don't let him get himself killed," you ask of her.

"Isn't he a little old to have a babysitter?" she asks in return.

"I don't know, he seems to need all the help he can get," Lee comments, pointing out at the lake where Bulo is still trying desperately to outswim Sonyo.

"Well then, you can keep an eye on him," Galda tells her older brother.

"Yeah, sure, I'm already watching you and Felna, another couldn't hurt," he tells her.

She snorts. "Yeah, you've been watching us reeeeaaal close, Lee."

"Don't kill Bulo yourself, at least," you request to Galda.

She sighs. "Fine, I will try my best. I can't promise not to maim him, though."

"What? No. No permanent injuries, Galda. Then everyone will know you did it. You have to consider the long-term. Stick to injuries that could be explained by accidents or the result of training. Much safer for you."

"Fair enough," you say.

She smirks. "Good. And be careful in the capital. The Queen is dangerous."

Without saying anything else, she makes her way over to the fortress.

"If I didn't know any better, I'd say she was feeling concern for you," Lee says. "Speaking of concerning....."

He points to the lake again, where Bulo is riding on the head of the Shark Turtle, which is swimming after Sonyo.

"Cower puny mortals!" Bulo yells. "You are ants, and I am your destroyer!"

Sonyo makes it to shore and runs for the trees as fast as he can. Bulo stands up on the Shark-Turtle's head.

"Alright, launch me!" he commands.

The Shark Turtle lowers its head, then flings Bulo into the air.

"This was a bad idea!" Bulo yells as he flies through the air, crashing into the trees. "I'm okay."

The Shark Turtle turns around and goes back underwater.

"That's my girl...or...boy. I don't know how to tell with a Shark Turtle. Seriously, if you figure that out while I'm gone, let me know," you request.

"Will do," Lee replies.

With that settled, you decide to find Felna, and soon locate her inside the fort, practicing her Firebending. As you watch, she throws two punches, each one unleashing a flame blast. She then jumps and kicks with her right foot, shooting a flame blast from it much like Ming did with his feet. Then, looking to the sky, she takes a deep breath, then suddenly stops, and slowly breaths out.

"Are you alright?" you ask.

She turns to you, breathing heavily and covered in sweat. "I'm fine," she assures you in a rather unconvincing tone.

"Are you sure that Firebending is such a good idea when the Queen's guards are outside?" you ask.

She looks like she's about to say something, but stops herself, staying quiet for a few seconds.

"None of them can see me from out there, and I didn't breathe fire into the air," she points out. "I'm fine."

Probably has something to do with the Queen's influence coming back into their lives just when she thought they'd gotten away from her. She must have spent her childhood terrified she'd be taken away by the Queen for being a bender, now one of her friends is. Can't be pleasant to see.

>>33703928
>>33703880
>>33703845
>>33703825
"What's wrong?" you ask her, not convinced that she's "fine".

"I already told you, nothing is wrong," she insists.

She clearly sees that you aren't buying what she says, so she sighs and looks to the ground.

"Fine, you want to know what's wrong? I'm scared," she admits.

"You had a fight with your father, and then he did a complete turnaround a few minutes later," she reminds you. "Then, he leaves to visit the Queen and returns with two of her most elite guards saying that she wants to see you. Is that not making you suspicious?"

>>33704241
But why would the queen want us to 'visit' if she couldn't even know about us being the avatar until now....seems dickish, but it all points to dad....

>>33704324
Because we can earthbend better than most anybody else? And she wants a powerful bender to tote around to show his superiority?

>>33704204
>>33704235
>>33704288
>>33704294
"Of course it is," you tell her. "I find it deeply worrying, especially given what I've heard about the Queen. I want to trust my father, but I'm not sure I can. And I certainly don't trust the Queen's Guard. But what option do I have, Felna."

She looks at you, clearly wanting desperately to give you an answer but not knowing what answer she could possibly give.

"I don't know," she admits.

"Is what you're saying that you're worried about me?" you ask.

"About you, about my family, about your family, and about myself," she answers.

>A. About herself?

>>33704649
Tell our mom we'll send a letter back, should arrive in a month, and if it doesn't come get us?

Depends on how we act towards the queen.
She will want to use us, to support bender superiority. And you don't refuse queens.....

>>33704582
>>33704534
>>33704496
>>33704482
"About yourself?" you ask.

She nods. "When I was little and first found out what I was, my parents were terrified. They thought that if the Queen found out, she would take me away from them. See, she never had any kids, so they were afraid that she'd take me and groom me to succeed her in order to keep a bender of her bloodline on the throne. Now, with all of this...."

Her hands shake as she trembles, looking more frightened than you have ever seen her. "If your dad told them you were the Avatar, the Queen is going to have people keeping an eye on all of us. I'll slip up, and they'll find out what I am. They'll take me away from my family. I don't want to help the Queen, but if I don't, what will she do to my family and friends? And what if your dad told the Queen what Galda did? Galda can't go through what happened last time the Queen caught her again..."

The trembling gets worse.

For what purpose? She won't be able to help us on her own. Definitely not with force and not with political pressure.
If our father and mother pulled on one string in that matter, I can imagine them putting maybe enough political pressure on them(powerful bender family and shit).
But again: Dad.
Second: When it's about the avatar, the queen might not even give a shit about 'political pressure'.

You walk over to her and hold out your arms. Felna steps forward, and you wrap them around her, hugging her tight as she trembles against you.

"It will be alright," you tell her. "I won't let any of that happen."

"I will," you promise, well aware that it's one you might not be able to keep.

She nods and steps away, seeming more calm and stable now. You decide it's probably a good thing that you calmed her down.

Leaving the fortress, you seek out your father, who seems to be speaking with Kana and Narlonok. As you approach, the two take a step back away from your father.

"Are you ready to depart?" Kana asks.

"I want to talk to my dad," you tell her.

She nods and turns, walking away to give the two of you some privacy. Narlonok follows, leaving you and your father alone.

He glances nervously towards the pair before looking back at you. "I'm sorry about this, Shin. I wish you didn't have to leave, and I really wish you didn't have to go with those two."

Supposedly it's because the Queen was impressed by our innovations in the field of bending and wanted to meet with us about it. We're suspicious it may be because Dad told her about us being the Avatar.

"What's their story, anyway?" you ask.

"Well, they're two of the Queen's elite guards," your father reminds you. "They're benders who have spent years training to serve the Queen and become some of the best in the world at their element. Kana and Narlonok are Waterbenders, I believe."

"So, what did you tell the Queen?" you ask. "I mean, we're a family of great benders, nothing I did is really that impressive."

Irritation flashes on his face for a fraction of a second. "Not that impressive? You've done things at your age that most Earthbenders never manage in their entire lives. As for what I told her, I just gave a report of what everyone has been doing since we left. I left out the part about you being the Avatar, of course, but otherwise I gave a complete recount of all that's happened."

"Can those two be trusted not to out me?" you ask.

"I wish I could say for certain," your dad replies. "I ordered them not to say anything, and the Queen instructed them to follow my orders, but their loyalty is to her above all else. Be careful when it comes to them."

"Okay, what's the story we're going with?" you ask.

He looks confused. "What do you mean?"

"Nothing," you tell him. "Goodbye."

"Goodbye son," he replies. "Good luck."

He gestures to Kana and Narlonok, who stroll over to you.

"It is time for us to depart," Narlonok tells you.

"It shouldn't take too long to reach the capital," Kana tells you. "And, with the three of us, the trip shouldn't be dangerous."

"Our combined skills are more than sufficient to deal with any threats we may encounter," Narlonok agrees.

The pair proceed to lead you into the woods, and you begin the trek to the capital. The two remain almost completely silent for quite a while after you depart. Getting a better look at them, you see that they both look to be about Bulo's age, maybe slightly older.

"So, be honest with me: How much did my father actually tell the queen about me? He was acting kind of suspicious.

It takes nearly a week for the awkward trip East to come to an end. Luckily, during that time, neither your guards nor any wild animals attempt to kill you. The only real threat you face is boredom and loneliness. Your escorts are hardly the chatty sort, and you find yourself missing your family and friends more and more. Your thoughts are almost constantly focused on them, wondering what they're doing, and wondering if they're okay. You know they can take care of themselves, but some part of you worries that something terrible will happen without you around to protect them.

Nah, you're probably being paranoid.

When you reach Biànhù, the familiar sights and sounds feel like a distant memory rushing to the surface.

A pair of guards standing at the gates step aside as you and your escorts approach, and you step into the residential district. Single-story buildings stretch on as far as you can see, home to the majority of the over two-thousand citizens of the great city. Children run and play in the streets, under the watchful eyes of their parents, and the city guard. While you take a moment to observe the place you called home for so long, Kana and Narlonok seem rather disinterested, and simply keep walking.

Maybe this is your chance to get away from them.

You decide that trying to run would only make things worse, and follow the two, praying that you won't regret this decision.

The three of you soon make it out of the residential district, and find yourselves in the market district. Merchants of all kinds sell their wares to eager customers. You consider stopping to see what's for sale, but then remember that you don't have any money with you. So, with no reason to stick around, you follow Kana and Narlonok as they make their way towards the palace; a massive, three-story building that towers above all others in the city.

The guards at the gate, immediately recognizing the pair escorting you, step aside and let the three of you pass. You spot another pair of guards at the palace entrance, but, like the last two, they simply let you pass.

Stepping inside, you take a look around. The walls are adorned with weapons, armor, and beautiful paintings. One in particular catches your eye; a painting of a dark-haired man surrounded by Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire.

He looks eerily similar to the one in your dreams.

You don't have much time to think on the connection, as Kana directs you to the stairs leading up to the second floor. You follow Narlonok up the stairs, reaching the next floor. You have no time to observe the floor before you are lead up another set of stairs to the top floor.

The walls are bare, and there is nowhere to go save a long narrow hallway leading to a single, large set of doors. Predictably, that set of doors is where your escorts lead you, pushing them open and taking you inside.

You find yourself in a large room illuminated by torches. At the other end, atop a small staircase sits a golden throne, and on that throne sits the Queen.

You've been told that she's about your mother's age, though she still looks quite young and beautiful. Long, flowing black hair cascades down her back, and her deep green eyes stare at you with gr-

-eat interest as she rises from her throne. Walking slowly down the stairs, her gaze shifts to the two guards who escorted you here.

"Leave us," she instructs.

The two obey, bowing, then exiting and shutting the doors behind them.

The Queen turns her attention back to you and bows respectfully.

"Greetings, Shin. I am Queen Alara. It is an honor to meet you," she says, no deceit or mockery in her voice, but true sincerity.

You bow in return. "It is an honor to meet you, as well. I'm curious, though, why have you brought me here?"

"A fair question," she replies. "Though, I thought someone would have told you by now."

She turns away and gestures to a table on the right side of the room. You follow her over to it, and the two of you sit down.

"As you know, your father was here recently to report on the progress of your settlement," she begins. "I am pleased that things are going so well, of course, but what really caught my attention in his reports was the many impressive things you accomplished. He says that you fought Crocodile Wolves, saved two girls from a Shark Bear, discovered how to use highly advanced Earthbending techniques, tamed a Shark Turtle, and even located the spot upon which the new settlement will be built. You can't really fault me for being impressed. Your parents are known for their bending abilities, so everyone knew that their children would have great potential, but for you to have accomplished and learned so much at such a young age, it's remarkable."

"It wasn't all that impressive," you insist.

"Such modesty," she praises. "But really, it is very impressive."

"Thank you your majesty," you say, "but beyond the bending I had help with every single accomplishment you listed, except for taming the Shark Turtle, that was all me."

She nods. "Your father did mention that your entire family fought the Crocodile Wolves in your first encounter, and that a girl named Felna helped you locate the spot for the settlement. But, even so, you have done much more than what can be expected of you. But beyond that, your bending skills have me intrigued. The reason I wished to speak with you personally, is that, while I respect your father, I'm not entirely sure I can trust him not to embellish in his reports. Your father wishes to make himself look good, and to draw attention to what he has accomplished, so I worry that he has exaggerated in his reports. A brief talk with Kana and Narlonok will give me all the answers I need as to the status of the settlement, but as for your father's assertions of you abilities, that's a little tougher."

She gives you a smile as she rises to her feet. "I was hoping that you'd be willing to demonstrate some of your skills to me."

"Of course," you tell her.

"Wonderful!" she replies happily.

"What exactly did you have in mind?" you ask.

"A suitable demonstration," she tells you. "Come with me, I'll explain on the way."

The two of you exit the throneroom and walk down the hall together. You don't see any guards anywhere, but the Queen seems to be completely relaxed. Either her guards are very well hidden, or she is confident that her abilities can protect her from any threats. As the two of you start down the stairs, she speaks up.

"Behind my palace, I have a little arena," she explains. "It's mostly used for my guards to train by sparring one another. I am going to request that one of my guards, an Earthbender, faces you in the arena. Don't worry, I will be perfectly clear that excessive force on his part will not be tolerated. It is my hope that through this, I will be able to witness your abilities first hand, and you will be able to test yourself against a worthy opponent."

As the two of you step onto the first floor, she glances at you. "Of course, if you feel uncomfortable with this, you need only say so, and I will find a different way for you to demonstrate your skills."

"I will face your challenge," you tell her.

She nods. "Very well, then. I look forward to seeing what you are capable of, Shin."

She leads you outside and behind the palace, where you see a shallow but large pit. It's edges are covered in water, but the center is dry Earth; a battlefield where any type of bender can fight at their best.

"Go wait in the arena, and I will fetch your opponent," the Queen instructs. "And, best of luck."

You do as she says and enter the ring, wading through the water to reach the central area. Looking around, you see several people stop training and gather around the ring, eying you curiously. After a few minutes of waiting and enduring the stares, you finally see your opponent arrive.

He is a tall, extremely muscular man with a bald head and no shirt. As he marches into the arena, his eyes remain trained on you the entire time. He stops once he reaches the Earth portion of the ring, staring you down.

"You may begin!" the Queen calls.

>A. Start simple, hurl rocks at him

>G. Raise yourself into the air on a pillar of Earth

>H. Attempt to pull up the water behind him and strike him with it (85 or higher)

>I. Create a wall between the two of you

Anybody see anything wrong with putting up about half the fight we usually would?

She might lose intreet if we let her expectations of us be off the mark.

Assuming her guard isn't actually trying to kill us

>>33708991
>C. Open a pit beneath him

>>33708991
>C. Open a pit beneath him
The pit is one of our best moves. But remember to press the attack afterwards. Don't just expect him to get stuck there, use the lapse in his concentration it'll cause to attack him further.

>>33708991
>E. Quickly rise a pillar beneath him

>>33708991
>>B. Wait for him to make the first move

>>33708993
That might cause suspicion, we will (hopefully) be defeated by him anyways, seeing he is probably much more combat experienced than we are.

>>C. Open a pit beneath him

You make the first move, stomping on the ground in front of you and thrusting your fists downward.

Your foe's face takes on an expression of surprise as he falls into the pit. You have the feeling that this won't keep him down for long, however, and prepare an attack for when he emerges.

Seconds later, your foe is launched from the pit, and lands on the ground in front of it. You immediately hurl a rock at him, but he sidesteps and answers in kind. Ducking under his strike, you attack once again, only for him to evade it and create a pit beneath you.

Turnabout is fair play, you suppose.

You fall into the pit and quickly get back to your feet, planning your next move.

>A. Launch yourself from the pit and hurl fire at him

>B. Launch yourself from the pit and throw rocks at him

>C. Launch yourself from the pit and create a pit beneath him

>D. Launch yourself from the pit and create a pillar beneath him

>E. Launch yourself from the pit and create a wall between the two of you

>F. Raise yourself high above your foe on a pillar of Earth

>G. Launch yourself from the pit, then launch yourself on a pillar of Earth; hurl fire at him in the air

>>33709270
>B. Launch yourself from the pit and throw rocks at him

>>33709270
>D. Launch yourself from the pit and create a pillar beneath him
We are the fling master. All shall be launched on earth pillars.

>>33709270
>>B. Launch yourself from the pit and throw rocks at him

>>33709270
>H
Stay in the pit
Call him a copycat

How many Pillars can we raise at a time?

do we know how to launch pillars diagonally yet?

Deadlock, next vote has it

>>33709457
Didn't we already did that, like in our first sparring session?

>>33709462
>D. Launch yourself from the pit and create a pillar beneath him

>>33709442
You've only ever done one

>>33709457
Yes, you've done it multiple times

>>33709491
What about that time we launched Felna and our self?

>>33709655
We were close by each other that time, so it was probably one big pillar rather than two.

As you stand in the pit, you decide that you're done fooling around.

You launch yourself from the pit with a fast-rising Earth pillar, landing a few feet in front of it. Your foe gets into a defensive stance, likely expecting more rocks to be thrown his way or a pit to open beneath him. You take a brief moment to examine his current spot. With water behind him and close to his sides, it seems that he'll most likely move forward in an effort to avoid an attack.

You stomp forward, and your foe begins to move forward. You use this to your advantage and thrust your hands upward, rising a pillar beneath his feet at a diagonal angle. Not expecting this type of attack, your opponent is caught completely off guard and launched high into the air. He goes soaring above your head and out of the ring, where another Earthbender raises another pillar to catch him and lower him to the ground.

He gets up and turns towards you, glaring at you before giving you a nod, acknowledging you as a worthy opponent.

The sound of clapping gets your attention, and you turn to see the Queen at the edge of the pit, looking down at you.

"Wonderful," she compliments, smiling at you. "I can see that your father wasn't exaggerating your abilities."

>A. Thank her

>B. Tell her to continue, you enjoy praise

>C. Point out that your foe simply wasn't expecting that last attack

>D. Dialogue writein

>E. Say nothing

>>33709725

>>33709725
>>A. Thank her

>>A. Thank her
>C. Point out that your foe simply wasn't expecting that last attack

>>33709725
>A. Thank her

>>33709725
>C. "Creativity is my only virtue, ma'am. Other than my ability to surprise my foe with a few small tricks, which I was out of, he would surely have won I am certain."

>>33709725
>A. Thank her
If the guy was cool with it, we should just accept the praise. Element of surprise and all that

>>33709725
>D. Dialogue

"It was naught but a single element your Majesty."

>>33709816
No No No

It would be wise to tell the Queen we are the Avatar before her Elite waterbenders do.

>>33709725
>A. Thank her

C. won't work. Striking at the right time, in the right way, is pretty much what earthbending is about.

>>33709834
I agree with you, that way we can control the conversation somewhat more successfully.

"Thank you," you say to her compliments.

She chuckles. "No need to thank me for delivering praise that you have earned, Shin."

She turns her attention to the gathered crowd. "This is Shin, the son of Greto and Talga. Keep an eye on this one, because I believe he will go on to do great things. Now, all of you, return to what you are doing while I speak with him. And Gulon, let this battle be a lesson in what happens when you underestimate your opponents and don't pay attention to your surroundings."

Your opponent nods, then bows before he and the others return to what they were doing.

The Queen looks at you once again. "Can I offer you something to eat or drink? I imagine you must be at least a little hungry and thirsty after your journey and that battle you just fought."

>A. That sounds wonderful

>B. Some water would be nice

>C. No, thank you

>D. Dialogue writein
