The last time we were in these lands, the King ruled all that can be viewed from Fort Tarsis. The so-called Queen, and her forces, did a fine job ripping that power from him. But now complacency seems to have allowed him to return and fortify positions while her forces bicker amongst each other.
At least you seem to know what is at stake. Regardless of who is in power, King or Queen, this destructive power can’t be within either of their grasps. I don’t trust the others reclaiming the freedom soul name either, as they shed that name a long time ago and no longer represent the old group I used to know.
They may have gotten similar intel to this power’s location, but I believe this route should beat them to the punch if we’re skilled enough. You’ve joined us instead of your buddies, so you got guts. Let’s see if you can back it up.
Progress report 3:
Week of 2/03/21 – 2/10/21
Clearly, I overestimated your abilities, but we still made ground. We’ve gotten to the path we needed but now those pretenders are at are heals. No other path to beat them to the punch.
This is it. The kingdom, the king, the queen, no one can be trusted with this.
We have to get there first… we have to make this place better for everyone, not just those in or crave power.
Use Skill
At sea you can only rely on your skill to bring you to safety. The harsh environment won’t allow you to rely on others. I marked these areas that I think will test our people’s understandings of their javelins. If your cocky, you can take these on.
Kill a enemy using the required skill.
Kill Count
Your stock is a precious thing so it’s always important for one to keep in mind how much we have and how much we need to kill to keep up supplies. Resources will be tight without the ability to steal supplies from the Queen’s forces, so we’ll make do where we can.
If you see something edible, go kill it for us to bring back as food.
See some other enemies we’d rather not deal with? Kill them on sight. The others love comparing numbers.
Kill a certain amount of a specific enemy.
Danger's Reach
No matter the location there is always danger to be had. Routinely inspecting locations that are fraught with monsters can be a risky endeavor, but it can also result in finding new bases, supplies, or more if we pull it off.
You’re used to these parts, so I’ll trust you and the other Grabbit Kingdom recruits to handle these. Better use of your talent then throwing unfamiliar lancers into the frontlines.
Complete the specific task.
First Mark
A couple guys from your kingdom gave us intel that can prove useful. Old stashes from sometime back, meant to be “postcards” of some sort, reveal intel of the area that we can use as staging grounds for later operations. Think you can scout these out for us?
Find the location.
Time Trial
Do you really think flying around in the middle of a war, when we’re on a mission to beat the kingdom, the Grabbit King forces, and Freedom Soul to something that can change the world, is a good idea?
Is showing off really that important right now?

Stylin’
You’re Impossible. You better be worth bringing along if you’re going to waste time like this.

Challenge of the Heart
Hey, come over here. Not everything can be handled by any recruit. Sometimes, you need the A-team. And, from what I’ve heard, you’re the type that has pulled off a bunch of impossible feats before. So if I told you we could make a quick path into further territory, avoiding a ton of legwork, but it’ll can cost you your life: Would you do it?
From that glean in your eye, I’m thinking you would. Good, then maybe bringing you along isn’t a total waste.
Take on the challenge to use the shortcut!
