Man, that's a little depressing. We should help her with that.

If we rush, we'll miss all the adventure!

>Get some chatter in. (Who? What?)
We must warn Ezzy of the tiny Moth. Do not believe the lies of the tiny Moth.

Also, ask the others if there are any sights they want to visit. We anywhere near the giant dragon bones? I'd love to visit that on the way home.

>>37440558

Lazy spider is feeling lazy.

Our monster group really fills all niches by no
Sheszka=Barbarian
Sara=Mage
Nin=Bard
Esmerelda=Rogue
I'm just not sure what Jin is, Warblade?

>>37440655
It'll be easy. Ezzy already gained a level just for meeting Lyra

>>37440655
We'll have mom and us beat that out of her

>Level 49 Archer: I have fought more giant monsters in the past week than the past 3 years.
>Level 3 Field Cook: Surpassed by a 2 month old spider. On the plus side: No longer have to eat own cooking.

We are such a big influence On Lann now

Dammit guys Nin has gotten into our character sheet

>>37440885
Can't stop. The Moth
Can't stop the Moth

One more fight, come on, Sara's so close.
Maybe a pack of something.

>>37440769
I think the ewasiest solution is to force her into cagematches with gnomes.
Or we could sign her up for cockfighting.

>>37440885
We basically invited her with the list of titles.

>>37440885
This is clearly a great day for elvenkind across the forest.

>>37440914
Calling it now.
Elle's going to earn that last level by through the great deed of creating tiny clothing for the tiny Lamia just to spite us.

>>37440860
>>37440885
>>37440815
The last big paste update added descriptions to the elves' levels.

>>37440945
Elle is confirmed evolved, along with the brothers. apparently reqm wont update the sheet before we get back

>>37440914
Well keep in mind she doesn't necessarily have to gain that EXP from combat. The first time Lyra evolved she gained the last required EXP from practicing magic. Perhaps we could get a bit of practice with Sara in before the day is out?

Rolled 17 (1d20)

>>37440995
>"Sara, I said practice, yes? That does not mean "try and blow Lyra up," yes?

>>37440995
Which reminds me, with all the powerleveling and Lyra being all kinds of broken, it's kind of easy to overlook just how damn talented Sara is at the whole magic thing herself.
Sure, she lacks Erics' Job levels and her combat and adventuring capabilities are still greatly outclassed by him, but she has kind of already surpassed him in Enchanting skill levels and having her Star Magic at 12 after only two months is all kinds of impressive.

>>37440939
I still crack up that Flight is a thing on Lanns sheet.

>>37441145
Pretty much, she's about as good at star magic as Lyra is a stabbing things with a pointy metal stick.

>>37441205
It is a skill in D&D

>>37441205
If it were a skill she could have, were she to train in it, it would be unlisted. By having it as Rank 0, it means that she may never improve it, ever.

Just like Esmerelda's self-esteem.

>>37441205
The thing to note is that she's as rank 0 and not N/A, (unlike Dad and his strong silk) which means she has the ability to level it up somehow.

>>37441347
Her human powers are really amazing after all.
Almost makes up for not inheriting her elf fangs.

>>37441347
I wonder if we give her a hanglider, will it be bumped up to 1 or even higher?

>>37441405
Might be worth a shot, atleast.

Esmerelda has been mostly silent for the trip- After the conversation with her mother, anyway. And the promises that followed.
You have quite a few to keep, now.

She's still standing upright atop your shoulder, a lock of your hair in her hands to keep her stable.
Your hand comes to your throat, finding her tail.

Her scales are smoother than you thought they'd be. The top is cool to touch, while the underside has already started to pick up your own heat. It feels like it's mostly muscle. Solid rather than soft. You run it between your fingers until she lets out something approaching a chirp, yanking on your hair to draw your attention.

"SSssssstop that! What are you doing!?"
"Sorry, yes? I was curious."
"About my tail?!"
"I was curious about what scales would feel like, yes."
"Well, don't."

You dip your head a little.
"Mhmm. Ah."
"What?"
"About Nin, yes?"
"Nin? The... harpy?"

"The moth."
"Which one is the harpy, then?"
"Jin, yes."
"That's confusing."

"One is always alseep, and the other is always annoying."
"I'll certainly be able to tell them apart now."
"Anyway. Nin, yes? She's ridiculous. Don't listen to her."
"Huh?"

"She tells lies. Absurd lies."
Your hands a gesturing expansively. Trying to visualize the size of your resident moth's capacity for lying proves to be beyond the reach of your arms.
"I see."

"Yes, yes. So, don't believe her."
"Mhm."
"We're back."

You break free from the gnarled grasp of nature, pushing an errant branch from your face as you reach the riverbank.

The boat is much as you left it- Sleeping harpy, Reading spider. Moth harassing elf.
You sigh.

"Nin, what are you doing?"
Both turn at the sound of your voice.
Sara turns a page.

"It's just a harmless experiment."
"I am not letting you experiment on me with anything, you-"
"Do you even know the meaning of harmless?"

>>37441447
"Where no harm comes to me!"

Esmerelda snorts, and you manhandle the moth back onto your shell.
"Absolutely not."
"It's fine! I just want to see what the dust does!"
"Then use it on yourself, yes."

Lann nods in agreement.
"But what if it isn't harmless?"
"Nin, I will tie you down until we reach home."

She sighs dramatically as you pack Jin next to her.
"I never get to have any fun."

Lann rolls her eyes right along with you, and you shove the boat free of the sand.
Bloody ridiculous moths.

You pile in, grabbing the oars and focusing on your task.
Which is getting as close to home before sundown as possible.

You easily pass your previous mark of 'now I have to go back and return this snake' when Esmerelda turns, parting your hair like a curtain and leaning out behind you.

"So, Nin?"
"Hmm? Oh! You came along!"
"Yes, I-"
"Perfect, perfect! Soon enough everyone will acknowledge my lady as the one true Queen!"
"What."

"I told you, yes. I warned you about the moth."
You mutter your discontent downstream, arms flexing as you propel the boat towards home.

Trying to fight the Moth will just give her a stage for her insidious lies, don't fall for it Lyra!

>"It's just a harmless experiment."
>"I am not letting you experiment on me with anything, you-"
Now we know another thing Lann inherited from her elven side.
Quickness to recognize lewdness.

At least, we can try and fail.

Racing celestial bodies and trying to convince moths that monarchy isn't all that!

I think you're underestimating the level of fluff we're talking about here anon.

>>37441712
I missed something about this stone tree thing. Do we just make the tree out of rock in the middle of the river? Sort a stony treecastle with built in moat?

>>37442099
We dragged the boat onto shore then called up a stone column under it.

>>37442099
We can set up a secure 'camp' in a few moments regardless of where we end up by creating a stonetree, so we can afford to row until the sun goes down, set up camp real quickly, go to bed without dinner and eat a big breakfast instead.

>>37442178
>go to bed without dinner
You know as well as I do that will never happen because the general vote can't resist hunting.

>>37442178
But can we use fire manipulation to put little lights on the ends of the branches?

>>37442344
>>37442396
Odds are we'll more or less be too tired after spending the entire day racing the sun at as fast a speed as we can manage.

You growl, leaning forward just a little further.
Really putting your back into it.

The conversation behind you continues, unabated.

"She's too young to be queen, isn't she?"
"Aha! That's the beauty of it! If we start now, then when she is old enough- She'll be ready!"
"Hmmm. But why? What do we get out of a queen?"

You can feel the moth inflating. Chest puffing up, pride radiating from every pore.
You cringe internally.

"A forest free of fear! More food, faster growth! Imagine- a space of your own, heated by the queen herself!"
"She isss warm..."
"And just-"

"Nin."
"My lady! I fall over myself to-"
"I cannot fit the entire forest on my butt, Nin. And I will not be trying, yes."

Lann is choking.

"A bit of magic-"
"No. No, no, no."
"The city is broken, isn't it?"

Nin's attention is immediately swung back to the snake.

"My lady has at her very fingertips- magic the likes of which has never been seen-"
"Earth magic is very common, yes?"
"Pfah! She seeks humbleness in her radiance! The stones of the city rise at her command! Rebuilding itself to marvel at her-"

Ezzy slides back under our hair, pulling herself up next to your face, looking forward. Nin continues on. Lann has gagged herself- While she apparently finds the moth amusing, she is at least smart enough to know not to encourage her.
You appreciate it.

"Can you really rebuild the city?"
"Technically yes? I fixed one building, so we could get into the ruins. And I can build things and call stone."
"Are you going to fix it, then?"
"Not now, yes? Noone lives there. If I simply raised buildings... It would fill with monsters inside the week, most likely."

>>37442589
The lamia lets herself fall into her thoughts, then lies across your shoulder- her arms flopping over the side as she balances herself atop it.
You aren't sure if she's simply allowed herself to fall asleep, but with her tail wrapped around your neck she won't be falling anytime soon.

Nin, thankfully, dozes off in the minutes that follow, the sun dipping ever lower in the sky above. You keep at it, arms burning, until the rays are dancing over the water, nearly gone.

You don't even bother getting out of the boat- the earth lifts you clear of the river, moving you up into the trees, bracing you there.
Your eyes close, and you lean back, even as your friends close in around you for warmth.

Sunlight, snoring girls, hunger.

Ferocious stomach growling hunger.

You know, maybe Nin wanting us to be queen and fixing everything might be because of what happened to the Moths after the city fell. They were not left well off after all.

Thar be dargon's in these here hills!

You extricate yourself from the group, though you stop short of attempting to pry the snake from your neck.
She curled in on herself in her sleep, holding her tail tight to form a neat little loop.
Ha.

You snag a wolf shaped package, and start to clamber down the stones- Sheszka is at least as early a riser as you are, and you're greeted by a pair of alert eyes when you start to peel away layers of blankets.

It brings a smile to your face.

"Good morning, little wolf."
"Alpha."
"Lyra, yes?"
"Mmm."

You muss her hair and shake your head.

"We need to get you back on your feet, yes?"
This, at least, is something she full agrees with, nodding ferociously.
You do away with the rest of her blankets, and she stands next to you- with a bit of support. One hand holds your leg while her own tremble.

"Don't worry, yes. We will have you up and running in no time!"

She smiles up at you, and you lead her into the woods.

To start- You ease her into it. Letting her move on all fours helps, and she's got a decent pace again soon enough.
Nothing approaching her absurd bursts of speed, but it'll be back soon enough.

You send her after rabbits, rodents. Anything to small to put up a fight.
You want her moving, not injured.

You let her rest a bit, between catches. Call her off whenever she starts to lag. One step at a time, yes.
You round out the morning by letting her track for you, bounding ahead till she finds a small herd of deer- She spooks them straight to you, and you simply grab a few as they try to run by.

Breakfast is served.

The trip back to camp is quick, even with your partner's slowed pace.
You manage quite feat- Lowering your false tree without even waking anyone inside.

>>37444034
Of course, they don't quite manage to sleep through the scents of tender meat, grilling fireside.
You have to tuck a little bib beneath your snake-necklace when she starts to drool.

Sleepy eyes and messy hair greet you around the campfire- People immediately start to line up for their food, while Nin staggers from the boat, wearing a blanket like a cape.
She clambers up onto your shell, slumping into a socket and chewing on leaves.

You still don't know where she finds them.

A few savory steaks later (and an entire raw deer, but no-on needs to know that), breakfast is finished. It's time to get this boat on the road. River. Waterway. It doesn't matter.

You can't stop it, Anon. Soon.

SOON

The current catches the boat almost immediately, tugging it along into the centre of the river.
It's not really all that fast, but...

You look at the oars.

You don't really want to, right?
You deserve a break, don't you. All this rushing and rowing and hunting and magic, it tires a girl out.
It wouldn't take long. A little nap, right?
You could just close your eyes, just a little...

You squeeze your six eyes shut, cursing.
You're so close, so close.

You crack your neck- To the protest of your current adornment- and sigh. You're going to just flatten yourself when you get home. Spread out and sleep. Maybe you could make a minipool, crank up the heat and just lie there. Lie in your hot tub until your chitin got wrinkles.
A spider slug.
You will be a giant spider slug.

"What is a 'giant spider slug'?"
Oh. That was out loud, then.

"Ezzy."
"Mmm?"
"I am very, very tired, yes."
"And the slug thing?"
"When I get home, I am going to lay around and do nothing at all."

She's moving, but you can't really see her.
"Why are you so tired?"
"The last week and a bit- Sheszka was sick, so we helped build the boat, then carried it to the top of the waterfall, then rowed and dragged it to the lake, carried it into the trees while fighting giant monsters. Then the wendigo healed her, and everything was fine and safe but I have not been home and I want to just sleep and not move."

"And you'll get to do that when you get home?"
"Probably not."
She snickers.

"Lyra?"
"Mhmm."
"Really, though? Do you know how to get bigger?"
"The growing thing, yes?"

"Yes."
"I don't know. Fighting monsters? Pushing yourself? I hunt a lot. And I... probably pick too many fights with giant monsters. But do not tell my mother that, yes?"
"Maybe."

>>37445207

"Have I told you about our home?"
"Your home?"
"Yes, yes. We are arachne. Except for my father, he is an elf. But our nest is high in a tree, many, many times bigger than-"

She's already shivering.
"It is not that bad."
"Hmph."

You can see rocks ahead. You're closing in on the rapids, finally. There's a dull roar somewhere ahead- The waterfall, welcoming you home.

No it is now, Slash mountain here we come

I bet Ezzy would level up from this.

>>37445231
>>Stick to the river as long as you can.
Basically, if it looks dicey, just sort of earth our way out of the river.

Laziness over caution!

>>37445231
>Ride it over the falls! (This is not a real option.)

You asked for this

>>37445231
>Ride it over the falls! (This is not a real option.)
suggest it to others and wait for them to protest then get all huffy about it and then

while grumbling the whole way.

We are a giant spider yes?

Perhaps we can swing the boat down the falls. With spider silk.

Kinda like a Gondola

You can't tell me that, options! perfect time to practice making web parachutes anyways.

Rapids, what rapids? Seriously, we can just make them go away with a thought.

>>37445231

Seconding the ramp.

Is fine too.

>>37445231
>Ride it over the falls! (This is not a real option.)
Use Earth magic to create a water slide!

>>37445231
>Get out and walk. This is a wooden boat, not something you can take into white water.
Funny as it is, I have to change to this one, because not everyone on board is a heavily armored giant spider and would overcome such a crash with ease.

>>37445231
>>Ride it over the falls! (This is not a real option.)

This is the qtg helpbin said no joke suggestion REQM.

Rock and Roll

"And that is how the queen invented waterslides."
Let's try it!

I like it!

>>37445488
>>37445440
>>37445341
Guys.. that was a joke. We are not going to desecrate a magical place dedicated to elements important to our sister to make a waterslide.
We are not That Giant Spider.

and that's the story of how we broke the boat less that a week after getting it.

>>37445670
Fine, lets just stick to the river as long as we can.

>>37445670
It's cool, we'll put everything back once we're finished.

>>37445670
this is a REALLY FUCKING GOOD POINT.
>>37445231
Please no doing the not real option.

>>37445231
>Get out and walk. This is a wooden boat, not something you can take into white water.

Level 5 rapids all the way home!

>>37445231
>>Get out and walk. This is a wooden boat, not something you can take into white water.
Some brought up a good point about this place being important so lets not cock it up

>>37445670
We can totally put everything back the way it was!
Noone will even notice the difference!

I'm back from food!
This is pretty much what I expected to come back to.

It looks like walking wins.
You ridiculous madmen.

Writing!

>>37446013
Yeah, walking? Absolute insanity.

>>37446013
You did this to us you giant spider you!

Crazy plans to waterslide down the mystical star falls aside-

Snake evolution betting begins now.
Put aside the tier 2 generic stuff.
What do you think tiny snek turns into when she hits the big leagues.

And how long until lyra receives a 'long suffering babysitter' evolution

>>37446235
She basically has seats on her butt.
She already got that evolution.

Of course, a tiny snake that wishes to be big, will get a Jormungand as final evolution.

How long until lyra becomes a literal house spider?

>>37446263
Prerequisite achievement: Is my tail delicious?

>>37446267
Too late, we're already there.

Though we might take up carrying a palenquin or something.

>>37446013
I was really hoping Lyra was so tired she would answer Ezzy with "power leveling" and fall asleep

>>37445231
>Ride it over the falls! (This is not a real option.)
>Other (?)
stone toboggan ?

>>37446235
Really wondering how she'll get the constrictor evolution, as that's where her size will really change, with the possibility of jormungandr or even forest wyrm as eventual evolutions.

>>37446714
Maybe a whole lot of burrowing?
Or for constrictor, just choking her food instead of using venom?

>>37446714

well, Jin has a thing for fire Not Obsessed and she got fire resistance...
so Ezzy might get additional size growth due to her obsession with becoming bigger...
though that will probably adversely affect her stealth skill...

What I am curious about is if she will get some form of magic, and if so, what kind...
Fire as a minor is a given due to Lyra's affinity and Jin's not obsessed thing...

You heave another sigh as you watch the stones and swift moving water approaching. Maybe you could just stay in the boat. Move rocks out of the way. Waterslide. Waterslide right off the falls, maybe even make a spiral out of it, dumping you right back into the river and-

You can feel a slap along the back of your shell.
"Lyra. Don't you dare!"

Out loud again.

You really need to rest.

You paddle over to the side, and begin the arduous process of unpacking everything so you can carry it.
"The slide would have been easier..."
"Lyra-"
"Yes, yes."

You sulk a little as you stuff bags behind you. Sheszka and Lann will have to walk. Everyone else, too.
Not your resident tiny snake, but nobody else can fit behind you while you're hauling the boat.
That'll teach them all.

Everyone stretches as they move, shaking feeling back into their various bits after the numbness of hard seats and hours of travel.

It's nothing like walking in giant monster forest circle, at least. Trees are reasonably sized, sunshine exists. The endless sounds of moving water accompany the slow chatter of people with nothing to do.

It's relaxing. The breeze is nice, too.

"-So your dad wasn't around when you were younger?"
"He went off to explore something, yes. He thought we wouldn't be so quick to hatch, or so quick to grow up."
"Ouch."
"Mmm."
"And you taught yourself magic without him, though? That's damn impressive."

"What was it like?"
"Hn?"
"When you were sick? When I used the healing powder. I want to know, please."
"Being sick was like... being hot. Too hot, yes? And shivery, and weak. And the powder was cool, and calm. I could sleep."
"Hmm. I see-"
"Thank you, yes. Very much."

You don't need to look to know Nin is blushing.

>>37446870
Jin swoops in from above, her broad wings blanking out the sun for a moment before she lands on your shoulders, leaning over yor head to look at you upside down.
Ezzy narrowly manages to get out of the way.

"Watch out! You almost stepped on me!"
Jin eyes the little snake with an almost fiery jealousy. You poke her in the forehead.

"Yes?"
"Lyra."
"Mhm?"
"I flew up high, yes? I think your sisters are in the river."
"You flew all the way to the river?"

She shakes her head, which really only serves to flop her hair all over your face.
"I can see very far, yes."
"Mmm. Thank you, Jin. Good job."

She smiles, and her eyes instinctively slide closed as your hand reaches towards her head. Your new jewellery watches in awe as you reduce a harpy to a large winged pile of jelly, leaving Jin all but lying across your head.
You really can't see shit like this.

But that's okay.

Your sisters are ahead. You're almost home. Just a little further to go.

>>37446899
Oh, I wish to visit with the sisters.

Also, HOW short is jin/how long are our arms?
Because that is an impressive reach for headrubs.

>>37446899
>But that's okay.
>Your sisters are ahead. You're almost home. Just a little further to go.
then we walk straight into a tree

>>37446714
I've said it before and I'll say it again.
Force her into cockfights or stick her into cagematches with gnomes.

The only way to make sure she'll get a size boost is to have her fight physically and that means finding stuff her own size to fight against.

>>37446899
Time for SPIDERSHARK!!!

>>37446823
I'm sure she will eventually get an elemental affinity, but I suspect that it won't be until her second evolution. And even then, there's only a slight chance that it would be fire. The only one of Lyra's family to share her affinity for fire is Sheszka, and that's only because we're her alpha.

>>37446930
Jin is basically standing on your shoulders, with her knees nearly to her chest, leaning over your head. She arranges herself to be forehead to forehead with you.
Just upside down.

>>37446990
Thanks for running.

>>37446990
>>And that's it for tonight!

DAMN IT MAN.

I WANT TO SEE THEM ALREADY

Good thread and thanks for running

>>37446990
Thanks for running REQM!

>>37446990
Will we get to see another instance of the glorious spidershark next thread?

>>37446870
Nobody ever lets Lyra have fun.

>>37447013
>>37447028
>>37447033
Thanks for playing!
You can see them next thread, of course.

>>37447044
If you vote for it!

>>37447068
Stop having reckless, life endangering fun times, then.
Indoor fun only!

>>37446990
So skipping a month or 4 to when were ready to go adventuring?

SO GUYS.

Do we want to visit our spider family before we leave the forest?

Are we going to stick around to help Elle build her house/nest/shop in/near town?

>>37447205
Elle would never let us leave before we build her house with indoor plumbing, baths and every other luxury she can think of.
We are after all the one with the Earth magic.

>>37447144
But indoor fun is booooooring.

>>37447293
that's what she said~
to you.

>>37447148
It'll be up to vote, probably mid thread monday. We'll set up the base of the timeskip, then move ahead with event votes interrupting.

>>37447205
>>37447267
It'll be up to you!

>>37447293
Then you aren't having the right kind.

I have to switch off to mobile- Any answers for the next bit won't have my trip. I'll verify them when I get back.

>>37447337
>Then you aren't having the right kind.
but video games don't exist in this land... and I'm not to sure how many people can read so trying to table top something could be a bitch... that and the fact that you can probably just go out and do it for real might also take something away from it.

>>37447337
But we're not old enough for the right kind.

>>37447572
Lewd.

>>37447461
There's studying and magic and enchanting and weaving-
Not that I expect people to take those up as anything more than hobby.
