Can you tell us who is in which of those places, Lordy?

Oh damn, it's been so long I've forgotten everything about the place's layout and where we think who is currently lurking.

>>41345196
>>41345203
No problem, it has been a while.

The eastern artillery station is where the wyvern is nesting.

The golem hanger is most likely where Tooth is lurking.

Command building, you believe, is where Mama Stump is.

>>41345145
>Golem Hanger

>>41345215
In that case, I'd go for Tooth.
I'm not sure Mama Stump is going to let herself be goaded into this trap and the Wyvern is the least likely to actually get hit by Quala.

>>41345145
>Golem Hanger

>>41345215
Okay then, it's coming back to me now.
>>41345145
>Approach the Eastern Artillery Station stealthily.
Getting those Boggart corpses would be too bothersome, I suppose, so just concentrate on either getting a quick stealth kill in, or bait the wyvern into the are where we plan to shoot the giants, so we aren't caught off guard where we don't have the advantage.
>>41345278
Which is why we should kill the wyvern personally so he won't be an annoyance during the baiting and subsequent fighting.

>>41345312
A golem fighting is anything but quiet.
If we go off to fight the Wyvern on our own the Giants will rush towards us and confront us 2v1.

We need to bait one towards Quala, have her kill them and then deal with the rest now forwarned that we control the artillery station.

>>41345278
>>41345312
The wyvern is the squishiest and has potentially lethal venom that could cripple best girl, or even Quala.
Take out the squishies first so you minimize the enemy's DPS during the drawn out battle with the tanks.
>>41345368
It doesn't need to be quiet, it just needs to be quick, we could likely kill the wyvern with two well aimed attacks, since he could be killed with a single shot from the cannon thing.

>>41345145

>>41345145

>>41345638
IT WILL BE SIGNIFICANT

First target is the wyvern, with luck I can bring it down quickly, and before it can threaten Quala and Kajilapa. It's a fair way to the artillery station from here, and I don't want to stray too far from the princess, so instead I stoop down, scooping up a loose chunk of masonry and iron support beam.

Winding back Raziel's arm, I throw it full force at the roof of the artillery station. The hurled boulder collides with the already damaged roof of the building, caving it in in an almighty crash which I am quite certain the giants would have heard. No backing out now.

A loud shriek echoes from inside the structure as it starts to give way, structural supports eroded by time and battle cracking and crumbling as the entire building collapses in upon itself, kicking up a billowing cloud of dust. The rubble starts to shift and strain, a scaly figure dragging itself loose. The wyvern, I've never seen one for myself, but it looks every bit as vicious as all the stories I've heard, long sinuous body, taloned feet, long, leathery wings, and a vicious barbed tail twisting and snapping behind it.

It shrieks in Raziel's direction, flapping its wings to lift, but manages little more than a short burst of flight before its wing gives way under it, forcing it to land on a nearby rooftop. Looking closer it seems that the collapse did quite a number on its right wing, the skin torn and bones snapped in places. It may not be dead, but I've severely hampered its movements.

>Close in and finish it off
>Have Quala open fire on it, stay close to the princess (you could also take a shot at it with your handcannon if you wish?)

>>41345729
>>Close in and finish it off
but as we are charging it shoot it with the handcannon

>>41345729
>Close in and finish it off
If we can keep Quala concealed until the giants come out we're a lot better off.

>>41345729
How loud is the cannon fire? Since I assume it'd be obvious that it's an artillery machine being used, just close in and finish it.
If the artillery sounds similar to our handcannon, then have Quala take a single shot at it while we're closing in.

Do we have to reload the handcannon after every shit manually, or is there a system to ease reloading?
How fast can Quala fire the artillery cannon?

>>41345729
>Have Quala open fire on it, stay close to the princess (you could also take a shot at it with your handcannon if you wish?)
Get her to go ahead and take a shot to get a feel for the cannon. No need to worry about noise anymore. If she missed we can use out hand cannon which we thankfully have more ammo for now.

>>41345729
>>Close in and finish it off

>>41345807
>How loud is the cannon fire? Since I assume it'd be obvious that it's an artillery machine being used, just close in and finish it.
It is very loud.

>Do we have to reload the handcannon after every shit manually, or is there a system to ease reloading?
It's manual unfortunately, it's an old weapon design, there are repeating ones nowadays, as you understand it, but they're still new and expensive.

>How fast can Quala fire the artillery cannon?
Not incredibly quickly, she has to insert a new shell every time, which is a heavy and unwieldy process.

>>41345385
>potentially lethal venom that could cripple best girl, or even Quala.

>>41345871
So the sound of cannonfire is obviously not handcannonfire sound, then?

>>41345889
>So the sound of cannonfire is obviously not handcannonfire sound, then?
It's a little different, of course whether giants would recognize that fact is another matter entirely.

Looks like closing in and finishing it off wins.

Do you want to use your handcannon as you're closing the distance?
>Yes

>>41345871

>>41345920

>>41345920

Hopefully giants are as slow as I think they are.

Was Sief smart enough to agree on a word/gesture/sign for Quala to fire? Like, holding Raziel's hand to his head, or something.

>>41345920
>No
Hand cannon in one hand, melee in other, close the distance, keep the weapon pointed, when we are close enough for the bugger not to dodge, blast it in either the chest or the other wing, then we lop/crush its head off.

>>41345920
>no

>>41345920
>No

>>41345963
The handcannon doesn't need to be held in our hand, it's attached to Raziel's arm, I'm pretty sure, we can hold both our sword and shield in our hands while still being able to fire if needed.

>>41345987
It does have to be held, it is an actual handgun.

>>41345987
We picked it up, pretty sure its not attached to our arm since we aint for the tools to attach it properly.
Either way, just wait for clarification.

You and I both know the answer to this, it's not like we don't have a handcannon back home, if he could, he likely already would have done it.

Because if they do I'd look at the core as Raziel more than the shell

>>41346240
Gotta get that glassy cuboid our mom was playing with and find out.

I can already hear movement elsewhere in the fort, the wyvern needs to be put down quickly before I end up in a very unfavourable three on one situation. Charging across the fort, I meet the wyvern head-on, the feral great beast hurling itself from its rooftop perch to meet me.

It hits me in a flurry of teeth and talons, raking off of Raziel's shell. There's no way that will hurt a golem of Raziel's quality though, leaving little more than superficial scratches on the golem's exterior. Ignoring that distraction, I bring the shield up in time to deflect a stab of the stinger, the wyvern screeching as the barbed tail dents and scratches the thick steel. I put the golem's weight behind the shield, overpowering the lighter creature, driving it back and slamming it hard against the side of a barracks, showering the ground with brick dust and blood.

The wyvern, maddened with pain, claws, shrieks, stings, thrashes all for naught, as I push back out of range of the barbed tail, bringing the war sword down in an arc. The heavy blade carves straight through stone, scales and flesh with little effort, carving off a corner of the building, sloughing off rock, timber and iron. The wyvern's body twitches in its death throes, stinger jabbing the air wildly as its headless corpse trashes amidst the rubble. I take a breath, calming myself as the skies break, the pregnant clouds releasing their rains as the storm rumbles in the distance.

(cont)

>>41346525
I step away from the corpse, lest I fall victim to a very embarrassing lucky hit from the convulsing stinger, looking across the fort. Looks like I got Mama Stump's attention, as the large gates of the command building creak open, a massive figure lumbering out into the downpour. She's the largest giant I've ever seen, a head taller than all of her children and twice as wide. A pair of piggy, beady eyes leer out from beneath a heavy brow, an upturned and scar-mangled nose above a wide, blood-encrusted snarl. She clicks with every step, her left leg replaced with a heavy steel peg most likely re-purposed from some piece of golem equipment, I suppose that explains the name.

“What's this then? An intruder in mama's home, stinking of the blood of her dear children, and I bet there's nowhere near enough meat on your bones to make up for it neither,” the giantess sneers, patting her sagging, pockmarked belly.

Her head swivels over to where Kajilapa waits, near the artillery station, her beady eyes squinting.

“Two humans, then, and behemoth meat, I'll get a good meal out of you yet.”

There's still no sign of Tooth, but Mama Stump seems unconcerned by the odds, stooping down to heft up a large rock.

Giants are stupid but I feel like they might be capable of being somewhat clever. At least when it's concerning this pair, so best to play it safe while doing a little damage.

>>41346535
I had hoped Quala would hide BEHIND the artillary building, so she wouldn't be immediately obvious...

>>41346622
She's a giant lizard, and not accustomed to stealth, it would have been very hard to get her completely into hiding even with plenty of time to do so.

>>41346622
>>41346651
I am assuming you meant Kajilapa there, of course.

If you actually meant Quala, Mama Stump can't see her, she's just assuming that if there's a behemoth here, there's a rider hiding somewhere.

>>41346622
Kajilapa, I mean
>>41346618
Mama Stump was explicitly stated to be smarter than average giants, and Tooth is likely quite smart as well, from what we know of him.
>>41346651
Quala is smart enough not to move the cannon by aiming before it's time, right? Wouldn't want to reveal our surprise.

>The artillery can't be turned in the opposite direction, can it?
It has an arc it can fire in. Fortunately for you, both the golem hanger and the command building are within that arc, so unless the fight shifts a long way away, it shouldn't be a problem.

>>41346786
To clarify though, the artillery COULD be turned around, since it's not one of the ones fixed in place, it's just that doing so would require it being manually turned around, which would require Raziel, most likely, since you do not have a team of people to turn a big bulky piece of artillery.

I pull out the handcannon, already loaded, levelling it on Mama Stump. The giantess' sneer turns to a snarl as she hurls the rock in Raziel's direction. Mana sparks in the cockpit as the golem darts to the side, the rock crashing into a wall behind me as I aim and fire. There is a cacophonous bang as the handcannon unleashes its ammunition, the thick iron ball punching into the thick, flabby hide of the giantess as it strikes her in the chest.

Mama Stump grunts, crashing back into the wall of the command building, clutching at the ragged, bloody hole just beneath the collar bone. She pushes herself off from the wall, wheezing, one bloated hand still clutched to her wound.

“You little brat, you'll have to do a lot better than that,” the giantess snarls, lumbering towards me with impressive speed for someone with only one good leg.

I have no time to reload the handcannon from this range, so I ready my sword as the hulking giantess bears down on me. Just as she is reaching me though, there is an almighty crash from the golem hanger, a pallid, ape-like beast erupting straight through the wall. It's so malformed it might be a stretch to even call the thing a giant anymore, crooked limbs, a lumpen, twisted torso of fleshy protuberances, and a face dominated by one great, crusty eye, twice the size of the rheumy blind orb next to it, above a mouth so filled with overgrown and crooked teeth that the beast can no longer close it, drooling on the ground as it moves.

It seems that we have located the last of Mama Stump's vile brood, which is now bearing down on me from the right, even as I prepare myself for Mama Stump's charge.

Oh no I'm not complaining haha, just saying

“Quala, Tooth,” I shout out over the communicators, Raziel amplifying the voice tenfold.

With the command given, I turn my attention to the matriarch, bringing up my shield as she bears down on me. She slams into the thick steel of the shield shoulder first, Raziel's joints screaming with the effort of holding ground against the colossal mass of giantish flesh. Heels scrape against stone as Mama Stump drives Raziel back, leaving great furrows in the rock. The cockpit starts to heat up as I force more and more power into Raziel's limbs, until at least I bring the charging titan to a halt. It is only a temporary reprieve, as no sooner have I pushed her back than she starts to lay into the shield with meaty fists, bludgeoning and slamming with no technique, but giving me no time to counter-attack. Arcs of white and blue start to flicker through the cockpit as mana surges to meet the strain. At this rate, Raziel's arm will give out before she does.

At least I only have one giant to worry about for the moment, as Quala proves to be a fast study indeed, catching Tooth in the side mid-charge as the artillery discharges with a deafening boom. The giant is sent sprawling to the ground, blood pumping from its ruined arm.

“Finish off Tooth,” I shout, shifting my weight to the side as Mama Stump hammers against Raziel's shield, letting the blow slip past.

The giantess stumbles, struggling for purchase on her pegleg as I bring the sword around on her side as she passes. The rune-enhanced steel tears into her blubber, flaring bright as the wound boils and oozes. Mama Stump snarls, turning again to face me, the flesh of her side reduced to an ugly, sizzling mess of blackened meat and boiling fat. Still she keeps coming, even by giantish standards her resilience is monstrous, and once again I find her trying to overpower Raziel with sheer brute force.

A heavy blow buckles the edge of the shield, bending the metal, a few more blows like that and it won't last. I sidestep a follow up blow as the giantess pushes me back, only to find Raziel's shoulder colliding with a wall. Damn giant hasn't just been trying to overpower me, she's been trying to force me back into an area where it will be harder to avoid her.

I can see the smug look in her eye as she winds up for another blow. There's barely enough room to swing my sword here, let alone dodge, but I won't be outwitted by a giant of all things. I drive Raziel's foot forward, straight into Mama Stump's leg, driving it into the kneecap at full force. The giantess howls, stumbling as she looses her already lacking balance. She grabs hold of a wall to support herself, trying to pull herself properly back up to her feet, so I follow it up by slamming the hilt of the war sword into her nose.

The massive giantess crashes to the ground, clutching at her nose, swearing and flailing as she tries to pull her bloated bulk back upright.

>>41348610
I hear another resounding boom from off to the side, as Quala fires the artillery once more at Mama Stump's malformed offspring. This time Tooth is ready for it though, and brings its injured side forward, taking the brunt of the shot on its already ruined arm, giving a gurgling, triumphant laugh even as the mangled limb is torn from its body. The giant charges at Quala, its one good arm raised high, and the princess dives from the roof of the building a split second before the artillery piece is reduced to scrap by Tooth's fist. Kajilapa charges forward, catching Quala on her back as she falls, the behemoth snarling at the one-armed giant as the two size each other up.

Guess it's time for that spirit inside Raz to awaken

>>41349355
Maybe. But fuck him.

Quala and Kajilapa are tough, I have at least enough time to make sure Mama Stump doesn't get up and hit me in the back when I go help them.

I step towards the fallen giantess, out of the cramped confines of the ruined walls I was pushed back into. I see Mama Stump scrabbling around on the ground, swearing and spitting blood, her hand closing around a hefty rock, the sight almost hidden as she rolls onto her side, Quala was right, by giantish standards I suppose this would count as being crafty.

As I come within reach, she lashes out with the concealed rock, hurling it at Raziel's face, I knock it aside with the shield, bringing the blade of the sword down on the matriarch's hand, cleaving it off at the wrist. She howls as she claws at the oozing wound, thrashing on the ground.

“One more stump for your name.”

Whatever response she had is cut short as I slam the shield into her chin, knocking the giantess out cold. While a human might bleed out from the wounds I've inflicted on her, giants are freakishly tough, and I've no doubt she'll survive long enough for interrogation despite her mangled state.

>>41349400
With Mama Stump no longer a concern, I turn my attention to the other fight still going on, but it seems my companions are more than capable of looking after themselves. Kajilapa has Tooth by his remaining arm, her jaws locked around his wrist as she pulls the misshapen giant to the ground, bones snapping as the behemoth shakes her head violently from side to side.

Tooth struggles and kicks, trying to break free of the grip, but Kajilapa's sturdy hide weathers the clumsy blows with little trouble. Quala shouts something from atop her behemoth, and Kajilapa releases the wrist. Tooth starts to try to drag himself away, but the behemoth surges forward, crashing down atop the fallen giant and clamping her jaws around his throat, ripping it loose in one sharp motion. Tooth gurgles one last time, pumping great gouts of blood from his torn throat, expiring upon the rain-soaked stone.

Kajilapa sniffs at the carcass, nudging it with her nose, before giving a disapproving snort and clambering off, lumbering up to me and staring up at the shell of the cockpit, snout stained red with giantish blood.

“We did it, Sief, Mama Stump and her whole clan dead, they'll tell stories about this one for sure,” Quala laughs, the princess, drenched from the downpour, grinning up at me from where she stands atop her triumphant mount.

“Everything went according to plan, nice work on the artillery, Quala,” I reply, the princess giving a gracious nod, somewhat ruined by the fact that she still can't stop grinning.

“So what now, you had questions for her before we take her head, right?”

I do, so what exactly do I want to ask Mama Stump when she awakens.

We have shit to loot from the battlefield we passed through as well(dem bracers, shame the warpick is haunted), plus we have to look through the rest of the fort without entering that one barricaded up room. Plus the remains of the wyvern and basilisk.

I want to see her face when she realizes this is more than just a job for us, and she won't get away with this easily.

Wonder if she knows about Raziel being special somehow or that glassy cuboid

Okay, I need to step out for a bit, next post when I return, hopefully within an hour or so.

Okay, back and writing.

>>41350795
Awesomeeeee

RIP lordy

>>41350795
Extra long section?

Remember to chain her down first.

There's no sense in giving Mama Stump any chances to fight back, so I walk Raziel back over to her, bringing the heel of Raziel's foot down on her ankle. On the third stomp I feel something snap, she won't be going anywhere now.

Quala settles herself down on Kajilapa's back as we wait, disappearing inside a thick cloth sheet treated against the rain as it pours down on us. The rain beats down as the minutes tick by without Mama Stump awakening, and I'm just starting to wonder if I hit her a little too hard even for her thick giantish skull when she groans, clutching her face with her remaining hand.

“Welcome back.”

I place the tip of Raziel's sword to her neck as the giantish matriarch groans, blinking the spots from her eyes.

“Today is not mama's day,” the giantess grumbles, beady eyes squinting down at the stump of her wrist, little sign of pain in her voice.

“How much worse today gets depends on what you say next,” I reply, letting the steel press up against the fat of her chins.

“You have questions for mama? Bah, ask them then, and stop your posturing,” the giantess snorts, a sneer on her fleshy lips.

“I want you to think very hard about this one before you answer. Several years ago, you sent one of your children, Bonesnapper, into the Empire to kill a woman named Sofia Atanor. I already know you were asked to do so by a 'Man of the Gloam'. You will tell me why, and who this man is.”

Mama Stump's beady eyes lock on the cockpit for several long seconds, the giantess not even seeming to notice as I press the blade in deeper.

(cont)

>>41351724
“Because he asked, because he said it needed to be done. That little human woman had blasphemed, so he said, and there's only one punishment for that,” Mama Stump sneers.

I grit my teeth, resisting the urge to run her through right now, I've waited this long though, I can resist a little while longer.

“How had she blasphemed?”

“I didn't ask, you humans are always blaspheming, spitting in the face of our divine right to rule. Mama is no holy woman though, and if the Gloaming Cult says she was a blasphemer, she was a blasphemer.”

“This man, from the Gloaming Cult, that's a lot of trust to place in the words of a human, why did you listen to him?”

“He was nothing, another fool human, some pale skinned northerner, his words mean nothing.”

Pale-skinned northerner. Not Jackel then, as I understand it he was from further south in the empire, a more tanned and swarthy complexion.

“No, I listened because he spoke the words of his fallen master, my the gods watch over his radiant soul, now there was a being that mama respected.”

The giantess is getting all teary-eyed, wrapped up in her memories. I bring her back to earth with a hard kick in her broken shin.

“What master?”

“Orisian, of course, even you fool humans must've heard of him.”

Orisian, the so called 'blessed and immortal dragon of twilight'. Not that he was so immortal when the Emperor's great great grandfather and his legions slew him at the foot of his obsidian temple and shattered his horde of fanatics. I suppose some must have escaped the purge, still working in their dead master's name even after all these days, though that doesn't explain why they wanted to kill my mother. Perhaps that glassy cube is the key, or something else, either way I need more information.

“Did the man give you a name?”

(cont)

>>41351752
“Henrick, or Hinrik, or some stupid human name like that.”

“...and what did he say when Bonesnapper failed?”

“Bonesnapper failed? Bah, I suppose that explains why he never came back. Who knows what the cult did after that, got someone else to try again, mama would wager.”

So Bonesnapper may not have been the one responsible for my mother's eventual death, just one in a long line of pawns. This Hinrik is the one I need to track down, if I want to find out more than that, I suppose.

“Don't understand all this bother over one dead human woman anyway, you humans die all the time anyway,” she sneers.

I bring Raziel's heel down on her ankle once more, Mama Stump gritting her teeth and growling as I press the point of the blade into her flesh.

“I am Sief Atanor, son of Sofia Atanor. You sent your son to kill my mother.”

Mama Stump's eyes widen.

“Bonesnapper is dead, the two who went after him are dead, every other one of your bastard brood in this fort are dead, I've seen to that personally.”

I hear a snort from the giantess. She throws her head back, oblivious to the way the tip of the war sword carves into her skin, letting out a bellowing laugh.

“Well now, aren't you a good lad. I wish my sons had been halfway as loyal to their mama. Now get it done, boy, run me through if it makes you feel better. But don't think you can get the revenge you want, the Gloaming Cult are a canny, and they've got the words of a dragon guiding them, they'll put you down just like they did her if you cross 'em.”

>>41352372
I'm not the person you're replying to, but I don't trust her that much.

Rolled 2 (1d2)

>>41352691
I'm the original person that was asked the question and all i can say is Idon'tknow, so lets roll for it.

“Not yet, I'm not done asking you questions,” I reply, Mama Stump giving a derisive snort.

“Fine, if you haven't the stomach for it...”

Ignoring her, I push on.

“The cult, where are they based?”

“Who knows, I've met cultists from the Empire and Iquani both, many flocked to Orisian's wisdom in better days, and many still respect the fallen dragon's teachings. If you're looking for a northern human though, maybe you should try looking north,” the giantess sneers.

“What about Jackal, is he part of this too? Are you providing him with parts?”

“Him? No, just some fool human raging against other fool humans, mama's happy to let him do what he wants, but if he showed his head round here I would've bitten it off al the same.”

“Then why are you storing all these weapons?”

“Cult asked me too, why else, said they might need them someday.”

Well that's hardly a comforting thought.

“Fine, one more question. Do you know anything about a cube, glassy, white, about the size of a human head.”

“Should I?” the giantess snorts.

That's a no then. It doesn't sound like the cult shared a great deal with Mama Stump, most likely they saw her as a useful tool and nothing more.

“So are we done here, you going to send mama on her way to think about what she did, or are you going to grow a pair,” the matriarch sneers.

I don't reply, placing Raziel's free hand on the end of the hilt and driving the war sword through Mama Stump's throat, her piggy eyes going wide before the light leaves them. I wrench the sword free, shaking off the blood from the blade. Mama Stump is dead, but rather than resolving my problems, it seems that they are larger than I had realized. The cult of a dead dragon assassinating my mother for 'blasphemy', a cult which, if the giantess was to be believed, has contacts all across the Empire and the Iquani clans.

(cont)

>>41352823
“She's really dead. Hard to believe, isn't it,” Quala's voice shakes me from my thoughts, Kajilapa lumbering up to take a closer look at the dead giantess.

“She's dead.”

“It's over then, that's one less threat to my people, and some glory for us in the bargain.”

“I wonder, you heard what she said, about that cult...”

“Sure, sure, I'm going to have to talk to my father about this, but that's another problem for another day. Don't get all moody on me, Sief, this is a great thing you've done, so take a moment to enjoy it.”

I sigh, I suppose she is right, I can put off thinking about the cult until tomorrow at least. I open the cockpit, Kajilapa giving a happy moan and craning her neck to sniff at me as she catches sight of me within.

“I'll admit, I had my doubts, but we really pulled it off, you're something else, Sief,” Quala smiles, clambering up onto Kajilapa's raised snout.

“Say... can I take a look, in there where you sit on the golem's saddle?” the princess asks, her smile faltering as she looks off to the side.

I'd think she could see the interior perfectly well from where she is, and it's more than a little cramped in here. There's something else, something at the back of my mind, half-remembered, that I can't put my finger on.

“It's called a cockpit.”

“That sounds dirty, you aren't messing with me are you?”

“No, that's really what it's called.”

“Fine then, can I take a look at the golem's cockpit?”

It's better if she explicitly asks us to stay in there while she takes a look, making her intentions obvious

>>41352845
>Sure, help her up to take a closer look

How many do golems seat normally? I assume there only space for one person to be comfortable, with a few exceptions.

>>41352984
It's a one-person cockpit, yes. It's fairly roomy, but it's still going to be a tad cramped with two people in there.

Most golems are designed for one person, indeed you aren't aware of any that are designed with multiple seats, save perhaps as an eccentric lord's novelty.

>>41352845
>Sure, help her up to take a closer look

>>41352845
>There's something else, something at the back of my mind, half-remembered, that I can't put my finger on.
I'd think this was a lewd story from dad, but I don't think he was a huge slut when he was actively doing golem heroics.
>>41353027
This is a bit too easy, ain't it? I would've thought you'd wait with he naughty until they have to spend the night aroind ghosts again for Quala to suggest sleeping in the same tent or something more actually innocent.

Writing.

I suppose there's no harm in letting her take a look, I offer a hand, and the princess takes it, hopping up onto the edge of the cockpit. She's... awfully close right now. I clear my throat, trying not to think about it as she puts a hand on the top lip of the cockpit to steady herself. She has an odd smile on her face, looking around at the flashing runic layout around us.

“Amazing, how do you make it move?”

“It's the runic layout, see these symbols here, and when it's closed, there's more in the air here and here,” I explain, pulling my hand back as I accidentally brush against the princess' arm.

“So you just touch the runes here, and it moves?”

“It's a little more complicated than that, you have to channel a lot of mental and physical energy into it, it's mana-based after all, so it mostly works on feelings and emotions, the layout is just there to act as a means to give the commands a more tangible component.”

“...right.”

I think I just lost her there. I suppose most of this stuff isn't something an Iquani would ever encounter, since runic technology like this is still solely the domain of the Empire.

(cont)

>>41353089
don't you get it mom and dad had car sex

>>41353387
“Basically, it moves because I will it to, the layout just helps focus my will. It's why we have to stay in good condition, despite spending most of our time in battle sitting in a cockpit. A weaker person would quickly wear themselves out piloting one of these, lords who allowed themselves to lose their edge have... well, let's just say that the strain was too much for them.”

“and here I thought you golem riders had it easy. I suppose it's good to know that the people we fought so hard against in those wars weren't just sitting in the cockpit relaxing while their stone shells fought for them,” Quala smiles, her gaze shifting across the glittering display to finally come to rest on my face.

“W-well, thanks for showing me this, Sief. I appreciate it,” she grins, her expression doing little to hide the deep blush of her cheeks. Honestly, if she was going to be so embarrassed, she shouldn't have climbed in here in the first place. Still, that sensible voice in my head is reminding me that I should probably put a stop to this now, this is a daughter of the Great Khan here, I can't forget that.

>>41353712
Yes, I do. It wouldn't cause a war if that's what you're implying but it may bar us from entering their lands, keyword MAY.

Other potential responses, IF IT WERE DISCOVERED (which I can't imagine happening since we are deep in the wilderness alone in the recently cleared lair of a giant clan) would be forcing us to marry her or her own exile from the Khans court, which he can afford to do because has literally scores of children

>>41353783
In real life in sexually tense moments it fits the mood and comes off well. Maybe it doesn't translate well to writing

>>41353847
Maybe you just can't read the mood, because this is not one of those moments in which it could come off as smooth.

>>41353794
Ha-ha the nobles would sue for war, and her father the Khan would see it as an open insult. This is more or less political fact according the Warlord. Yeah it'd end badly at best.

>>41353810
Anon we'd be straight up insulting him his clan and his Nation. He'd want our head at minimum. Additionally since magic is a thing here, they'd find out eventually.

>>41353898
To be fair, magic in the setting, in the form of spells, isn't actually a thing, as far as Sief knows, just magitech stuff with golems.
Unless Quala is to be a virgin sacrifice/embassador to a spirit, I don't see a way for theIquani especially to magically find out if she's a virgin or not.

>>41354005
>To be fair, magic in the setting, in the form of spells, isn't actually a thing, as far as Sief knows, just magitech stuff with golems.
Magic is a thing, but it's a thing that humans can't do, several other low races seem to be capable of it to a degree, as are the more intelligent varieties of titans.

I suppose it can't hurt to have a little fun, as long as I don't do anything foolish, we did just bring down an infamous family of giants after all.

“If you want I can take you for a ride?”

“That does sound like fun,” Quala smiles, still not quite managing to meet my gaze.

“Alright, you'll need to move your hand, this may be a little cramped,” I explain, Quala shifting her hand from the lip of the cockpit to hang on to the top of the seat.

The cockpit swings closed, Kajilapa giving a puzzled snort as Quala waves to her before we're sealed inside. My nose twitches, tickled by her wet hair, the scent flooding my nostrils.

“You weren't joking about it being cramped, were you,” Quala chuckles, an awkward sound, one arm on the top of the seat, another resting against the arm rest, her knee pressed up against mine.

“I did warn you, you might want to look the other way though, if you want to see anything,” I reply, all too aware of how close the princess' face is to mine.

She glances back over her shoulder, gasping as she looks at the viewing screen, seeing out through the front of the cockpit to the fort beyond, and the puzzled behemoth sniffing at Raziel's shell. The princess shifts to try and get a better look, giving an apologetic smile as she elbows me in her attempts. I press my head back against the seat as her repositioning brings her hips dangerously close to my face, before with a sound of triumph the princess ends up facing the view screen, half-leaning against one of the walls of the cockpit, resting a hand on the arm of the chair to balance herself. Well, I suppose it will do, at least I don't have her backside in my face any more, that's... that's a good thing, right?

“Poor Kajilapa, she looks so confused, I should've said something to her before I climbed in here,” Quala frowns.

“Hold on, try now,” I reply, activating the communicators.

(cont)

>>41353898
That'd be one way to look at it, but at the same time obviously his daughter likes us, and also the (I believe crown?) prince likes us, so as long as it didn't become PUBLIC and force his hand there's a good chance he'd just like, covertly forbid any contact.

“Hmm, she can hear me?” Quala asks, the behemoth perking up instantly at the sound of the princess' voice.

“Don't worry Kajilapa, I'm fine, I'll be back with you in a minute,” she explains, the behemoth giving a grunt as she flops down on the ground to rest.

“So, how fast can this thing go?” the princess asks, looking back with a grin, seems she's regaining a little of her confidence.

With a smile, I start Raziel moving, a slow walking pace. Quala laughs at the sensation as the cockpit rumbles with every step, eyes fixed on the view screen.

“Is that all? Please, I saw you moving far faster than that in the fight,” she goads.

“Alright, but hang on tight,” I reply, picking up into a slow jog, then a run, Quala holding on to the armrest tight as the cockpit jostles and shakes around her, laughing all the while.

“Faster, is that all it can do?” she calls, grin wide on her features. Seems the princess is enjoying herself.

“Please, I haven't even gotten started yet.”

I break into a sprint, heading straight down a wide open avenue of the fort, Quala cheers as the fort blurs past the viewing screen, keeping her grip in spite of the rocking of the cockpit. Raziel's feet hammer on the rock, heading straight for a low, squat structure, with a surge of mana to the golem's legs, he launches himself, leaping up and over the building. Quala's grip finally gives way as Raziel leaves the ground, and I reach out to catch her before she can stumble, the princess' wet skin slipping in my grip as we land.

“Ah, okay, you win,” Quala chuckles, as Raziel skids to a halt on the stone.

I don't say anything, various parts of my brain currently locked in debate on how to deal with the situation I now find myself in. The princess sat across my lap where she fell, her body pressed up against mine.

“I... ah,” Quala starts, as she too realises her current position, eyes meeting mine through a curtain of rain-soaked hair, her cheeks flushed, lips parted.

What do I do in this situation?

>NOPE! Ride over, princess out.
>Freeze up
>Stay calm, help the princess up and return her to Kajilapa
>Would it really be so bad if something happened...

Freak out when she can't see us.

>>41354342
>>Stay calm, help the princess up and return her to Kajilapa
Most IC choice but brainless smutfags won't be denied, so pissing in the wind.

Way too many no options for anything but yes to actually have a chance.

>>41354405
And we don't want to be like him at all


>>41354411
Shut up smutfags.

>>41354444
Yeah no anons wil choose to escalate.

>>41354342

ya I am thinking they kiss both freak out a bit and shit gets cute
>>41354476
could you not try to make it look like I am samefagging

obvious samefags on both sides, great
>>41354342
>stay calm, etc.

>>41354489
Really it is warlords choice how far this goes.

>>41354342
>Would it really be so bad if something happened...

Okay, closing the votes now so I can count it up.

>>41354513
And it's his choice to completely fuck us for fucking up and got my Ooc too.

>>41354495
here Anon, I forgot Your a god.

>>41354342
>Would it really be so bad if something happened...

>>41354342
>Stay calm, back to Kajilapa
Nope, too much, too much

>>41354510
Was there any other way this could have happened?

What kind of surprised me was the amount of anons that decided to pointlessly make their own unique variation when the vote was already split between ~3 options all of which had samefags backing them.

Regardless of winning vote, salt incoming

>>41354342
>Freeze up

>>41354576
Don't forget the "I'm not salty, but I'm totally salty" posts.

>>41354576
Yup.

>What kind of surprised me was the amount of anons that decided to pointlessly make their own unique variation when the vote was already split between ~3 options all of which had samefags backing them.
Eh, I've previously added a variation SEEMINGLY really late in the vote but managed to get it selected through latecomers and a few vote switches. It's always worth a try when you've got an idea that you think is basically an even better version of a different option.

What won?
I was taking a shit.

Looks like lewdness won by a single vote, even though when counting all options for no lewdness as one option it has more votes.

>>41354729
Your shit won the vote, congratulations, it was the perfect compromise candidate.

>>41354729
No one won. Everyone is angry at each other.

>>41354738
Shouldn't have split your votes non-smutfags

>>41354776
>3 options for nonsmut, 1 for smut
Naturally the votes would be split as at first you don't know which nonsmut option gets the most votes, the smut option didn't have this problem.

>>41354661
...
But they were all completely superfluous votes that added nothing that wasn't already there.

>>41354808
>smut option
Let's be honest, it will probably just be some intimate physical contact, kissing, maybe some petting.
I wanted to give sief's first kiss to Loren ;_;

>>41354808
All I'm saying is splinting votes is death in democracy

>>41354850
>Splinting
I think it's clear that I meant Splitting

>>41354827
I said if you THINK you've got a better option, I didn't say they were RIGHT.
>>41354808
>>3 options for nonsmut, 1 for smut
To be fair, Freeze Up, is not, strictly speaking, a nonsmut vote, it is a "put the ball totally in Quala's court" vote. She could still decide to initiate Lewd

>>41354919
True, I would have most liked to vote for Freeze, but had to go for Stay calm to have amy chance at not rushing into lewd.

>>41354919
You all fucking panic way too much. If OP wasn't prepared for Anon's choices it wouldn't be there.

Would it really be so bad if something happened, just this once, after all we've been through these past few days. It's strange, it almost feels like I'm looking in from the outside, my head moves forward of its own accord, and Quala's moves to meet it, a nervous, jerky motion, and the princess yelps as our foreheads collide.

“Sorry,” she mumbles, starting to pull back, but I catch her shoulder, pulling her back in.

This time our lips meet, pressing together, the warmth of her skin against mine almost unbearable. I feel the tension start to ease from Quala's muscles as we cling to one another, her breath hot, her fingers alighting on my chest. I let my other hand rest against her side, feeling her ribs rising and falling beneath the thin, wet fabric. I almost lose myself in the moment, in the feeling, in Quala's warmth. I feel her sinking into me, trusting and innocent, pulling back from the kiss to look into my eyes. I know that she'd let me, if I asked, even if I didn't.

Damn it, I can't. Not here, now, I barely know her, we met just a few days ago. This isn't right. I bring my other hand up to her shoulder, holding her back.

“We shouldn't, Quala.”

“Y-yeah, I guess I got caught up in the moment,” the princess smiles, the strange haze lifting from the cockpit.

“I don't want you to think it's because I don't-”

“Y-yeah, of course.”

Oh spirits, this has become very awkward very fast. My mind races as I try to figure out what to say to salvage things.

>Kiss her one last time
>Tell her you can continue things once you've done enough to win her father's respect
>Tell her you don't think it's the right time
>Friendzone that princess

>>41354986
That's not panic, that's just me criticizing another anon's ability to count

No, I just linked too last post. Wasn't directed towards you specifically just Bitchy Anon, Bitching.

>Tell her you can continue things once you've done enough to win her father's respect

That's perfect for the follow up.

>>41355005
>not right time
That father reply is horrible, don't make irresponsible promises to pricess we might not be able to keep, or might not even be possible.

>>41355095
Indeed we can no sexy times yet comrades

>>41355005

>Kiss her one last time
>Tell her you can continue things once you've done enough to win her father's respect
Both, man. Give her another kiss and tell her she'll have to wait for papa's approval. Though winning the competitions handily, killing the giant clan and winning the affections of best girl and princess should help.

>>41355005
>Tell her you don't know if it would be right, it might get both us and our nations in trouble
>Even if it was right, it isn't the right time

We're not the type to hit it and quit it, that's dad.
