That's Not Very Punk Rock of You

[fuzzysocks]

Pick a few of the glowing plants and fashion them together into a sort of daisy crown- this should hopefully work like a mining light, letting you see ahead of you without having to concentrate on a light spell.

[Fish]

<Yeah, ok. You can take some of the glowing stuff.>

<You are Bernice, handmaiden of the Queen>

<You are worried about the future>

<You are worried about the invasion>

<You are worried about your family and friends>

<You are worried about the Queen>

<But, you will not show you are worried>

<If you do that, everyone will panic.>

[waka]

wait, lets go over that. what invasion?

[knightlygale]

Keep a smile on! Everyone's looking.

[Eversor]

>Dial the fake confidence up to 200%

[Fish]

<Of course you've got that smile on! Can't stop smiling!>
<200% confidence! All the confidence!>



<Oh, the invasion? To be honest, you don't know too much about it.>
<Mostly because it came out of nowhere! One day, an army showed up and started to attack the city!>
<You've learned a bit more since then.>
<The army's from a large human city a long way away.>




<You don't know a lot about it, just that it's ruled by a queen named Solana?>
<You'll know a lot more about it soon, you assume.> 
<Nobody in the Crystal Kingdom knows how to fight.>




<Crono, your brother, is doing his best to hold up the city shield.>
<He's done so well, but he can't hold it up forever.>
<You know that. Everyone knows that. It's only a matter of time before it falls.>
<That's why you've taken so many precautions.>
<That's why you sealed the queen and why you've hidden Oriana with a secret message.>

[Eversor]

>Try team building exercises with the other worried folks. Team building exercises always help!

[knightlygale]

> Who is Oriana?

[fuzzysocks]

Why isn't anyone helping Crono? Is he the only one who can hold up the border?

[Fish]

<You can't remember any team building exercises right now.>

<WHY CAN'T YOU REMEMBER ANY???>

<AAAA>

<A loud voice interrupts your internal panic.>

<There she is! It's Oriana time!>

<You remind her that, no, nobody is punching any humans. Everyone else is too scared.>

<Crono and his soldiers are maintaining the shield as long as they can.>

<You hoped the demons would show up during this time, but they must be busy somewhere else.>

<Surrender is the best chance you have for everyone's survival right now.>

[Eversor]

>Soon...Soon you will be able to punch the humans.

>What...are the demons? Are they literal demons? or more of a euphemism kinda thing?

[baropin]

Have these humans given you any terms of surrender yet? Have they even said what they want?

[thedudeguy]

Hand her a blantant literary device. It's early in the story we need to have some item in our sights.

[Fish]

<The humans haven't given any terms for surrender. You hope they'll do that soon...>

<Oh, wait, the demons?>

<Of course they're literal demons! They live come from Hell and are born from chaos.>

<Your best friend is a demon. You wish he was here right now.>

<Hopefully he'll find your letter on the wall once he shows up and finds Oriana.>

<That item idea isn't a bad plan, either.> 

<You pull off one of your crystals and put some powerful magic into it.>

<You tell Oriana to hold onto your crystal.>

<If she holds it in front of her, it will point towards your location and glow based on how near you are.>

<That will make finding you a lot easier.>

[Eversor]

(Are...are we the bad guys?)

>Finding you, become a lot harder.
