Apparently finding no screws the little robot jumps off your head and rips your eyelashes out.

>Continue Investigating the Robots quarry

>>1434576

You decide if you're going to get to the bottom of this strange screw collecting you're going to have to see what's going on inside the quarry.

So inching yourself to the edge of the giant mini-robot dug hole you carefully lower yourself on to the platform below and find yourself standing over a set stairs dug into the wall.

In the pit below is a giant pile of screws topped by your own eyelashes.

If you're new to Terrible Quest:

Feel free to write something you want to do in between any post I make.

I don't normally give people >options.

Consider yourself always able to write something unless I state that a post is to be continued.

>>1434634
Okay.

>>1434608
Dig around the screws with your shoes. See if there is anything interesting beneath the pile.

>>1434672

Hopping on the giant pile of screws you use your sandals as if they were spades and start scooping screws out of the way and as you do little robots catch the screws that you scoop and start to throw them back on the pile.

But you're a little bit faster than them and not far below the surface of the screws you see that under the pile the little robots are working on something.

Climb out of the pit and look around for any more points of interest.

Your head pops out of the pile of screws and you see your cat Puffers watching the pile intently. There is a great commotion with all of the activity of the robots, piling screws, and building underneath of them, but other than that there doesn't seem to be anything else happening at the moment.

(Not that it isn't an incredible sight.)

You climb out of the screw quarry and decide to explore the destroyed pyramids. walking up to the monumental stones you realise the structure is still gigantic despite it's destruction.

If there is an entrance, it shouldn't be hard to find now.

You walk around the circumference of the base and find an entry way, about twice as tall as you are.

Good thinking Anon, you get +1 to your next roll.

The fire goes out and you're left in the pyramid corridor with a lit torch on the wall.

Now that your hair isn't on fire and you can see what's around you, you notice faint hieroglyphs etched into the walls. Puffers is afraid and pressed up against the opposite wall, and Sockpuppy is wimpering at your side, staying close for comfort.

With each moment you spend on top of the golem's shoulder there is a 2d6 chance that another of your cast members will be flicked off.

The reason you all landed safely on the shoulder was because you had a +2 to that roll.

Column = autocorrect mistake. Should say golem.

I technically screwed up and must apologize, because I forgot about the +2 until afterwards. You got a 7 and that's a success, but since I already drew it I thought well, can't go back on it now.

To make up for it I'll give you a +2 on your next roll too.

Also, since I decided to pg the game, even though the bee's name made me laugh I'm actually gonna ask you to make another name cause it's not fair I just keep the name but not use it.

Name him something else and I'll just call him that but we will always have the joy of the first laugh in our memories. XD
