Continuing from the last entry...
Picking up right where we left off last time.
WAIT BEFORE YOU SHOW ME, LET ME GUESS. THREE SHADOWS?
Haha, yep. No points for guessing that. What are they? WHAT ARE THEY?
Man, is the light hitting him at a bad angle? Was he always that pale? The glow in this room is awful for your complexion, sir.
The birds are back. I will leave them alone this time.
… There’s another one, actually. Does she get a new bird every time I destroy a Colossus? I WILL KEEP AN EYE ON THIS.
Hey, horse, pretty horse. I like watching his mane and tail. Mostly his mane, tail’s a little too thin/see through (RATHER, IT LOOKS TOO MUCH LIKE A VEIL, I THINK) for me (honestly, so is the mane, but it’s harder to tell). But it is pretty when he runs! (Even if also a bit awkward looking.)
Hmm. Wall in the way, but I see a tunnel, so I bet that’ll lead me around the wall.
Ah! They are lizards! *chased one down*
Oh, gosh, pretty.
If it weren’t for the, you know, giant death creatures roaming about, I would totally want to visit this place. Maybe they only react to the sword? Maybe I don’t care to risk it. (Also, you know, FORBIDDEN LAND.)
What is in these little… hillcave things? Graves? Isn’t that what s/he/it/they said? Ah. Tunnels.
Pointy little feet! Hm. It’s like a weird, giant horse. And I have no idea how to get up it!
Sooo, these tunnels must be important. Also, it stopped stomping so much after a bit after I went into them. ALSO MY HORSE IS A GENIUS IT CAN TRACK ME EVEN WHEN I AM UNDERGROUND. Damn, horse, you got some sorta device implanted in me? (That’s pretty cool, if you do. Seriously, how’d you pull that one off?)
!!!
It worries me a bit when my horse starts shrieking like that. IS THE COLOSSUS HURTING YOU?!
I don’t like it down here. I can’t see it, so I don’t know where to come out again. TUNNELS: POSSIBLE A BAD IDEA.
OH MY GOD IT IS LOOKING DOWN THE TUNNELS FOR ME JESUS NOT COOL *flees quite rapidly*
I’M SERIOUS, THAT IS SO ABSOLUTELY FREAKY.
Imagine! You’re running around in the tunnels and… oh, that’s odd, something’s hanging in front of that one? SO YOU GO TO LOOK AND AAAAAUGH GIANT STONE AND FUR CREATURE STARING IN AT YOU.
Oh, it must’ve seen me. It’s stomping again.
NOW IT IS NOT.
… I’m probably supposed to go do something when it’s looking for me. OKAY! HORSETHING (NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH HORSE).
Oh! I can climb its tail. And there’s a glowy blue spot on its neck? Not a weak spot? Or – no, there’s no sun in this area of the field. *hacks at it anyway*
Aha, there is it on the head.
Nooo, don’t make that sound! I AM SORRY, HORSETHING! I AM SO SORRY. STOP CRYING.
Ugh. It’s a relief when they die, because then they stop making those pained noises.
AND WE COLLAPSE AND GO BACK TO THE SHRINE AGAAAAAIN.
Fourth of the way done, now.
This is quite the collection of shadow critters I’m assembling.
Horse says, hello to you, dead girl! We go over to look, too. HELLO TO YOU, DEAD GIRL!
And then it freaks out. RUN, HORSE.
Oh, man, are you telling me the next one is in the sky?
Huh. I looked away for a while and my horse wandered off. No big deal, horse should go graze or something, yeah? No, he went back into the shrine/temple thing and got stuck walking into a wall. WHATEVER, HORSE, I LOVE YOU ANYWAY. You looking after my dead girlfriend for me?
Ahaha, and then it goes downstairs and back outside. Avoiding me! Now he is grazing. Good horse.
Lots of pretty landscape~
And now more water! *swims*
Oh. Woah. That thing. IT IS HUGE. And also flight-capable. (Really. It covers the sky. MASSIVE. Though a lot of that size is its tail. STILL.) So, uh. Arrows this fight, I’m guessing.
Ooh, he didn’t like that! *is divebombed* *jumps in the water* SAFETY!
… hm.
But it’s dark down here – so no sun. So no sword to show me the weaknesses.
OH YOU ARE JOKING I HAVE TO HOP ON THE DAMN THING AS IT SWOOPS PAST?!
Yeah, that didn’t go well. Ooow.
How does that thing stay in the air?!
Nng, shut up, voice. I had its attention earlier, it just probably thinks it killed me. (To be fair? IT CAME PRETTY CLOSE.)
I just can’t aim this bow that well. *misses* All the wasted little arrows~
Caught it that time!
Lord, now what? I can’t let go. We’re moving too fast. WHERE ARE THE WEAK SPOTS?!
Yikes! Okay, found the ones on the wings, but fell into the lake. Clear opposite side of the lake. What a pain.
Okay, back on the bird… Woah! Ahahaha! I almost fell off, but I caught the tail.
Made it to the wing tip! Aaand bird goes upside down when you smash the spot on the wing. And you lose your grip and fall to the lake again. Much closer to the little standing spots, though!
Held on through the flipping this time (hey, knew it was coming. Could time it so I had a mostly full grip-stamina bar)… but then fell off trying to get back to the body. Darn it!
Aaand, we’re back up again~ Clearly no point on its head, so… Tail? We’re gonna try the tail!
TAIL! Yes, there it is.
Oh, tail is a much smoother ride than the wings. (GOSH, REALLY?)
I AM SORRY, BIRD COLOSSUS! :(((
OH NO YOU IDIOT DON’T PASS OUT IN THE WATER GOOD GRIEF.
Oh, okay, he’s not gOUISKjopweqrhbAUGH SNEAK ATTACK
OKAY I REPEAT DON’T PASS OUT IN THE WATER! DROWNING IS A VERY REAL POSSIBILITY WHEN YOU DO THAT.
Oh, sounded like there were actually words that time.
Under the temple this time? Okay! Come, horse! Come, pasty white kid! (His neck still looks weird. POSSIBLY WEIRDER. Possibly just an unfortunate angle.)
Of course, where is this supposed temple? THROUGH THE WOODS! Oh, how pretty!
Ooh, valley. Though it is a deep end.
And now BLINDING BRIGHT … desert? AREA! YAY!
Aw, horse must stay behind again. Be good, horse!
Through the tunnels….
A cliff! A drop off! Oh, but there are handholds. Okay, cool.
…. NO THE PURPOSE OF THE HANDHOLDS IS NOT TO BE IGNORED.
SURE, FALL THE ENTIRE WAY DOWN AFTER THE SECOND FROM THE TOP. THAT’S FINE.
FREAK.
Crud, we’re starting this one with barely any health.
AND IT’S RIGHT ON TOP OF ME AAAUGH RUN AWAY
Okay! Okay. Uhm. It hasn’t noticed me yet, it seems? I don’t think, looking at it, I don’t think I’ll be able to climb the arms, since it has big wrist bands in the way like the third one did.
THERE IS NO ROOM HERE ARGH.
*scales the wall*
And then the Colossus punches through the little wall after me. eek. Keep running~! Until there’s somewhere to launch an attack from or something.
His footsteps hurt me! I mean, most of them so far, when I’m too close, will hurt me a bit, but this guy’s hurt me even when I’m pretty far away. NOT OKAY.
Okay, launching from the little walls doesn’t work… Keep moving, then!
… aha, darn. No where else to go from here. CLEARLY I AM MISSING SOME IMPORTANT DETAIL, THEN.
Well, while he’s not super-stomping around, I’m gonna let my health regene---- oh, you are joking.
He bent over – like the horsething? – to see me. And he has a massive beard. FACE CLIMBING, ALL RIGHT! o_O;;
Haha! I love it. You know you’re doing the right thing, because the music changes to something more heroic than the normal, ominous fighting music.
Wheee! He doesn’t like me on his face. DON’T BLAME YOU, COLOSSUS. It thrashes a lot.
I got the mark on the head! And then I got thrown. Aaaand then I nearly got punched! But I didn’t, thankfully, because that would have killed me. So now I wait for my health to come back and for him to come peering around for me again.
Hm. That didn’t go well. I didn’t get far. … Apparently it is hard to climb face fur. That’s twice now I’ve lost my gripping stamina before getting to his shoulder.
Ah! Got it that time! Looks like it’s down lower on his back. CLIMB DOOOWN.
DOWN.
I SAID DOWN WHY ARE YOU SO DIRECTIONALLY IMPAIRED.
Up to six! That is almost half.
You know, it makes for a fast game, not having to run around and get money or levels or find items or kill a million random enemies along the way.
I’m having fun, but I wouldn’t want every game to be like this.
Hmm. Back towards the third one now. ~merrily we clomp along~
… Maybe not?
I don’t know. I’ve become lost. THERE IS NO SUN HERE I CAN’T CHECK MY DIRECTION.
OH FINALLY Dx I was getting worried.
Though, hey, at least it was pretty.
ALSO, something that’s slowly bothering me. I mean. There is nothing here. Some birds, some lizards. So, you know, creatures. And the shadows. And the Colossi. And that’s it. (WELL OBVIOUSLY WHAT WITH THIS BEING THE FORBIDDEN LAND AND ALL.)
It’s just kind of … lonely?
It is still all amazingly pretty, but… it’s kind of beginning to creep me out a bit.
… okay, maybe not, but something’s getting to me.
Must leave horse again! Climb spiral!
Oh. Guess I was supposed to do down the spiral.
There is something shining in the water.
Hmm. Going down ends in water. Do I really need to enter the water…?
UNDERWATER BOSS BATTLES ARE EVIL.
I bet it’s the shining thing. I BET YOU. *jumps in lake*
Yes, it is the Colossus. UNDERWATER BOSS BATTLE. Ugh.
It’s got face tentacles! hee~
It’s not… doing much. Just swimming. Hm. Augh!
NO! DON’T EAT ME PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS GOOD I HAVE BEEN EATEN ENOUGH BY GIANT WATER-DWELLING CREATURES!
NO! I can’t look.
…
Oh. It swam under me, but it didn’t do anything.
Hm… The tail came almost to the surface. I bet I have to grab the tail.
Okay! I got the tail! And now it’s swimming all crazy-like. Wah! @_@ I can’t do anything when it’s underwater! But when it comes up, I can move forward, so…
Ow! Oh! It sends out electricity or something when it dives! Ow! Uhm!
Aha! There’s a mark! …. Destroying it destroys the electric bit.
Oh, darn. I fell off. =\
… Watching these things – especially this one, for some reason – it’s such a shame I’m destroying these things. They’re amazing. Really, it’s incredible.
Got the tail again.
Dangit! He done zapped me to death. (I totally deserved it, though, chopping on him – and his Colossi buddies – the way I have been…)
WELL I KILLED IT THAT TIME. GOOD JOB, HERO.
YES, PASS OUT IN THE WATER AGAIN.
NARCOLEPSY, ALL RIGHT!
Shadooooows.
… Seriously, I’m sorry, but his neck looks weird. Blllaaaaack. IT IS TOTALLY GETTING WEIRDER.
TO BE CONTINUED AGAIN TOMORROW.
