You scuttle back to the guild under cover of darkness.

Well.

Technically there is no real cover. And it isn't all that dark, either. And you're in a wagon again, so you aren't scuttling.

But you'll forgive all that, because it means that you don't need to deal with anyone seeing you. And you can close your eyes and plug your ears, and pretend like nothing is happening at all.

It actually took your aunt a few minutes to restrain the bee- The girl complaining about 'fraying diplomatic relations', buzzing and whining as your aunt smiled and told you to visit soon.

You'll visit as soon as you develop time travel and eradicate the whole day. Forever.

The guild's not-secretary is there to wave hello as you push in, diving past te crowds of staring and now very silent adventurers- You're poolite enough to return the wave at least, but you aren't sticking around.

Your door swings shut behind you, and your friends barely have time to register your entry to the room before you've buried yourself in the covers, the tips of your legs protruding from beneath a pile of blankets.

"Lyra?" Nin starts cautiously.

>No, no Lyra here. Only spiderghost.
>I am staying here until all of my problems go away, yes.
>Confess your sins.
>Other (?)

We've been put into enough of her dresses thankyouverymuch!

It is too late for that anon. We could have stopped it a week ago, but now it is too late. She has learnt too much and gone too far for us to be able to change the inevitable outcome any-more...

Now I wonder how Zach and Ephram are doing....well other than hunting. Though what kind of evos will they get?
>>
So guys, As learned in RE: Lizard quest, apparently spiders are weak to being violently stabbed and set on fire repeatedly, so we should watch out for this.
>>
>>42011022
Our evos made us immune to stabs and fire, we are invincible
>>
>>42011022
We ARE stab, we ARE fire!

>>42010929
We'll need more allies, Elle is quickly approaching raid boss tier now.
>>
>>42011050
We ARE Queen of the Forest!
>>
>>42011066
NIN! STOP THAT
>>
>>42011053

Decades in the future, a group of adventures will band together to try and overthrow the oppressive reign of the Countess of Cloth. A Fearsome creature which subdues and binds those who enter its domain with hellish designs...
>>
>>42010919
>Aria seems to have found a decent dungeon. Lyra will be rather jealous of that...

Jealous? Nah, she'd be happy for her sister. Also, we have TWO dungeons right here in town. You know we're going to spend the next few days trying to avoid people. Might as well do that by wrecking a few dungeons.

I guess we'll have to solo the water dungeon, since our friends actually need air, but I'm sure they can do stuff on their own for a few hours.
>>
>>42011117
>Did you hear? The Forest Queen managed to clear both dungeons in less than a week! No wonder she can rule all those monsters
>>
>>42011066
Please, anon.
We'll be queen of every monster race on the continent.

>>42011115
Female wear as much armor as possible to try and prevent it from being torn off and forced to wear the most scandalous of outfits.

Elle possessions:

It seems that her business is spinning out of control.
>>
So who wants some amateur spiderbutt drawings?

I have two flavors: Rad molten metal, and family picture.

Again, I have to emphasize the 'amateur' part. I'm still working on gitting gud.
>>
>>42010919
The dungeon kicked her spidery butt, from the looks of things. Look at her teamwork skill.
>>
>>42011176
Nah, she just has a nice big web of connections to help her.
>>
>>42011188
Might be that she aint found an adventuring party yet.
>>
She hasn't even leant Dungeoneering yet... Though she should learn it soon enough.
>>
>>42011176

Spider silk is stupid valuable.

She can, quite literally, take over the entire continents fashion industry with her spiderbutt.

Hell she will in about a year if she keeps this pace up, and Theresa isn't helping matters at all.
>>
So REQM! Are we gonna get some more bonus scenes, like Sara's first day of classes? Aria's solo dungeon run? Elle's evo into Boss Tier Fashioniesta?
>>
>>42011245
huh? I'm pretty sure Theresa is helping Elle lots.
>>
Okay, I'll wait until the end of the thread to post drawfaggotry then.
>>
>>42011310
I believe anon was (tongue-in-cheekly) portraying Elle's progress towards her eventual fashion dictatorship as a negative thing, and so Theresa's help is making matters 'worse' by helping Elle quite a bit with the business side of things.
>>
>>42011239
speaking of, there are 2 proper real dungeons in this town, we should clear them, yes

Aria
>Level 51: Adventuring isn't too bad. I guess.

I... I think we may have unleashed a monster on an unsuspecting world

>>42011181
Yes please

>>42011518
Nah, that was Mom and Erics. We merely failed to stop her in time.
>>
>>42011577
Kay. Molten first.
>>
>>42011592
Failed to stop her?
We Enabled her to start her journey down this forsaken path. Had we not given her a spinning wheel, or dyes, or set her up with Theresa, or provided models for her clothing; she may have taken a different path...
>>
>>42011592
We gave her books on designs and sewing though.

No anon, we are just as much to blame for the coming fashion-pocalypse as our parents.

I don't know why, I've seen and enjoyed far worse, but this makes me really uncomfortable.

This is going to be used by the Empire as an Evil Plan enacted by 'The Monster Queen' to subjugate humans. Isn't it?

That is a brilliant plan anon. If Elle is a queen, then we can't be. GENIUS

We'll have the best dress kingdom in the world.

Traitor!!

We will be one of the first to be put in the silk farms

I wonderin what city Sara is in right now, I can't imagine they have mage schools just anywhere so it should be a bigger one that can't be that far away.
I hope that means we can meet her, or at least hear from others about her relatively soon.
>>
So, when is elle going to enlist her magic sister in making ENCHANTED clothes?
>>
>>42011764
Elle wouldn't be Quen. She'll weave our Royal Robes, which Lyra will wear like a funeral shroud.
>>
>>42011787
I, too, miss our family.
We might see them at some point, I hope.
>>
>>42011783

"No."
You can feel your friends moving closer, feet padding against the wooden floors.

"No what?" Nin's voice rings out again.
"No Lyra. Only spiderghost. Spiderghost doesn't have any problems. She doesn't have to worry about anything."

You imagine that your friends have lined up, side by side, each cocking their heads to one side in confusion, and you pout to ward off any smiles. No happiness, only spiderghost.

"If spiderghost doesn't have any problems, why is she hiding under the sheet?"
Sheszka's voice interrupts Nin's warm tone, a tremor running through the floor as she drops to a sitting position. You think.
"Lyra is the one under the sheets, though?"

Nin giggles.
"Oh,of course. Lyra must be the one with problems, then! And there's no way Lyra's problems would have anything to do with the little earthqua-"

You move like lightning, one arm shooting out of the sheets to snag the prancing moth, Nin barely managing a single 'Eep' before you've dragged her into your fortress of blankets and pillows.
"Shush! ShSHSHshshSHSHSHSHHHHHHH!"

The traitorous moth laughs again, stretched across your lap, eyes glinting with untold depths of mischief.
Godsdammit.
>>
>>42011638
This has no right to make me feel so unsettled. I've read some pretty hardcore hentai and it's never bothered me, but this does...
>>
>>42011864
"Lyyrrrraaaaa- What- Did- You- Dooooo?"

You grab her mouth with one hand, glancing back and forthe beneath the confines of the sheets, checking for listeners even in the safety of your own room.
"Quiet! Quiet, yes! I- I made a mistake."
"Mmh mmphtk?"
"Someone- Someone said something, yes? And I didn't like it. And I said something back. You can't tell anyone!"

Her expression grows serious by degrees as you pull back your hand. Her lips purse as she thinks on something- and then she blows her hair from her eyes, tugging on your arm to prop herself up to sitting.
"Are you in trouble?"
There's concern in her eyes as she looks up at you.

You shake your head side to side.
"No, no- Not like that, yes? I just-"
You look at her helplessly. How do you say something like this?

T-thanks guys.

I guess I should at least explain what I was going for. I wanted to have the two front pairs of legs used to raise the butts in the air, with the back legs also raised. But there's literally never been a pose of a spider like that, let alone a spider girl. I had *very* limited references as a result.

Monocle is higher on the English Tea-drinking Gentleman scale, eyepatch is for English General Gentleman scale and goes with the word "chaps".
>>
>>42012638
Why not both? An eye-patch for one and a monocle on the other?
>>
does anyone else think Nin should learn some actual medicine? because unlike band-aids, I don't think powder can fix everything.

further training suggestions are: regular combat training for Ez, reading for Shez (she's almost there!), experimentation with starfire for Jin and of course more smithing for Lyra.

also, weekly reminder that Nin can sense magic.
>>
>>42012763
sure, why not.
It'd be good for her.
>>
>>42012763
>reading for Shez (she's almost there!),
Definitely! The other suggestions are great as well.
>>
>>42012666
Critical point, it would probably explode into high-grade tea leaves or something.
>>
>>42012763
WOOT! Tiny Animal Death Arena Mk.III!

why am i picturing Nin as a snakeoil saleswoman now?

okay we are not harvesting Ezzy for oil stop that
>>
>>42012837
not saying that it will be actual snake oil
>>
>>42012763
>, I don't think powder can fix everything.
The right kind of powder probably can, pretty sure once she goes into a healing specced evolution her powders probably can fix everything.

Regardless of that learning more medicine would help, because of how draining her healing magic is.
>>
You try to control your breathing, try to stay calm- But now you're thinking about it.
It was there before, but it was just a sort of looming thing, in the background, but now you're thinking about it and oh gods-

You hug Nin to your chest, crushing the moth against you, your breath coming in sharp and quick.

"There was- Idiots and idiots and idiots and he, he threatened me, threatened the forest, threatened everyone and I, I- I THREATENED HIM BACK AND THERE WAS FIRE AND THE CROWN AND THE EARTH AND NOW EVERYONE THINKS I'M THE QUEEEEEN-"

Your chest heaves as you drag in more air, barely pausing as you wail-

"I'M NOT THE QUEEN! I'M NOT! THERE'S NO CITY AND I'M NOT IN CHARGE OF ANYTHING BUT NOBODY'S LISTENING AN A BEE WANTS TO DIPLO-SOMETHING AND I DON'T WANNA GO OUTSIDE ANYMORE!"

You hug Nin again and squeeze your eyes shut, the prickling feeling if tears passing as the emotional weight burns free.
You feel better, lighter, as your heartbeat slows to something resembling normal for a giant spider-person.

Nin tries to say something, but you drag her higher till she's just beneath you, leaning your head on hers and brushing her hair out till the calm feeling takes over.

"Are you feeling better now?"
"...Yes. You're not going to make fun of me?"
"Maybe later."
"Mmm."

She leans against you, seemingly waiting for you to talk.

So you do. The simmering, bubbling feelings, the memories of the event are all there, under the veil of calm.

"I met my aunt, yes."
"Aunt?"
"My father's sister. She was with the bee."
"A bee? What?"
>>
>>42012864
I bet learning actual healing/healing magic would hell her get a healing evo.
>>
>>42012870
You flick a hand around, trying to describe her-
"A monster, yes? A girl who is a bee. With wings and chitin. She was a princess."
Nin shifts slightly, rearranging her wings for comfort.
"A princess?"

You nod slightly.
"From the elflands, I think? There are bees and hives there? I will visit them and ask, yes."
"Mhm."
"You can't- You can't tell anyone, yes? Please."

The moth pats your head.
"It'll be fine. You should go to sleep, Lyra."
"Sleep?"
"You look worn out. Tired."
"Okay."

You pull more blankets forward, bundling them around you, and you let yourself flop into their fluffy embrace, the slow thump of your heart accompanying you into a dreamless sleep.

It doesn't actually, her ability to sense magic isn't necessairly external mana control, especially because that comes with more than just sensing. Its just a ability she gets from her sensory organs.

Nin wouldn't do that when Lyra is having a hard time.

True, though Lyra discovered it on her own when magic was used around her.

She's forest creature 6/6

Bees don't live in our forest.
>>
>>42013316
She's travelling and probably in a relationship with auntie. I figure she'll be a recurring character, not an active party member.
>>
>>42013366
no, she is elflands creature 1/?
>>
>>42013366
She is not a Forest creature.
Also its unlikely the Forest Queen evolution will still be available next round, since we enter Ascendant.

I also agree the cast is too large, I already found Ezzy too much.

Awwww yeah, next Evo we gonna be heavy metal spider queen.

The real question is this:
when do we go from "monster" to "giant monster"? Have we already done it?

>>42013485
I think we're on to something here.
Also can't forget to have magma pyrotechnics.

Lyra went to giant monster at the very latest when she evolved Grave Arachne.
Nin already told Lyra that she is, in fact, a giant monster.

Your head breaks free of your blanket cocoon, glowering towards the wooden door.
Another knock.

You raise your voice, just enough to be heard, calling out.
"Come in, yes."

There's a sound of shuffling cloth before the door creaks open, revealing the secretary once more.
"Good morning." You mutter grumpily.
"Morning to you too. I've a few things to ask you if you don't mind?"
"I do."
"I still have to ask you, though."
"Yes."

"Well, then. First off-"
"Wait, yes."
"Wait?"
"Mm. What is your name?"

She blinks.
"Have I... not introduced myself?"
"No?"
"Huh. Call me Ren, please."
"Alright."

One hand emerges from your island of bedding, gesturing for her to continue.
"Thank you. Two major points, and two minor points- Firstly, The disturbance at the castle was your doing?"
"Are you talking about scaring people, or the earthquake?"
"Technically, the earthquake."
"Yes."

She notes it down, the scratch of her writing utensil soft against the paper.
"Second: Could I have an overview of your plans for your time in the city, please?"
"My plans? Is that a major point?"
"Yeah."
"Why?"
"Says the crown of fire wearing arachne."
"I am not a queen, yes."
"Princess, then?"
>>
>>42013917
You shake your head, denying it.
"I will be visiting my aunt. And the dungeons. Probably stores."
"Your aunt? I didn't think there were any other arachne in town."
"On my father's side. The elven merchant at the duke's meeting."
"Elven and Arachne nobility, got it."
"Neither!"

The woman tucks the board against her body, sweeping some hair from her eyes.
"Well then- Two minor things: First off, Let me know if you do anymore training, and we'll pay you for it. And if you feel like it, the guildmaster will meet with you. And when you can, build a bath."
"That was three things, yes. And meeting the guildmaster is minor?"
She shrugs.
"The last one was just me. And the guildmaster probably just wants to drink and share stories. Any meetings would likely be conducted at the bar downstairs."
"I see."

She waves, making to close the door and leave you in peace.
"Pass the front desk before you leave, yeah? Just let us know where you'll be going."
"Yes, yes."

The door slides shut with a click, and you drop your head back into the embrace of your bed with a sigh.

Hey REQM, has it been revealed as to how much Lyra wieghs? Other than "a lot".
>>
>>42014575
It's simple she weighs one Spider Queen, any other unit of measurement is unfit to measure a spider queen and you will be punished for attempting to use it
>>
>>42014575
The Queen's height, weight, and measurements are classified state secrets, anon.
>>
>>42014535
The tragic irony is, if they would have the good sense to attack Lyra alone, they would have a good chance of surviving their mistake, just because Lyra might not feel like killing someone that doesn't pose much of a threat to her.

But if our friends are around, they go the way of the kobolds.
>>
>>42014589
Would it be valid to ask how many Ezzys it would take to lift said spider queen?
Last time I checked Ezzy said she could lift 6 stones, and assuming each stone weighed 1 pound, we could find out that way.

>>
>>42014999

>>
>>42014813
Ok let's be smart about this. First, lets take the body of a baseline female human in peak physical condition. Around 180 pounds, give or take. Remove the legs, because Lyra's sexy spiderbutt, leaving us at 150 pounds. So we know it must be between 150 pounds and 1 ton, setting as how she can walk on wooden second story floors without breaking them. Add in the various metal birds, and I'd say that the weight would be about 190. Now we add that sexy spiderbutt, and we're around 400. I'm going to go out on a limb and say we're about 436 pounds
>>
>>42015026
Wait shit make that 547. Forgot her body was bigger than a baseline human's, and that she has spider legs as well
>>
>>42015026
Lyra is most likely significantly heavier than that, you underestimate just how huge spider organs are. A pretty long time ago someone calculated Lyras weight based on scaling up spider weight, you might want to look that one, it wasn't perfectly accurate but a pretty good asessment.
>>
>>42015079
Duck ignore the grammatical errors. Typing on a phone it's tricky
>>
>>42015108
What duck?
>>
>>42014851
You're probably right, I just never imagined her being wider than like 4-5 inches since she sleeps around Lyra's neck.
>>
>>42015099
Well, using the squared vs cubed law, she should be heavier than a scaled up spider. I'm also going to assume that her abdomen contains some sort of skeletal system to brace it up, then she's... Yeah she's definitely a lot heavier than my initial thoughts. She may be edging on 800 pounds. Shit.
geez lyra, how big is your spiderbutt? I may have to start calling you badonkadonk.
>>
>>42015222
remember that her spider butt has an internal skeleton too, we saw it when we molted
>>
>>42015222

Lyra was over 1600 pounds way back when, according to one science anon.
>>
>>42015222
secret true fact:
lyra is getting spider-pudgy. Nobody wants to tell her, or even knows how to tell.
>>
>>42014521
>>42014525
read some newspapers, you oblivious fags.
>>
>>42015255
We only saw the internal bones of our arms, which were not always covered by chitin, our spiderbutt was too big to see through according to REQM, so we don't know if it got a internal skeleton, and it seems vaguely unlikely, due to spacing problems with all our spider organs.
>>

>She may be edging on 800 pounds
Thats definitly still too little, her chitin alone must be incredibly heavy.
But its hard to tell how heavy she is because we don't know exactly how large Lyra is right now, nor do we know exactly what the hell is going on where her spider and humanoid body meet, because thats some funky shit where hydraulic/fibre muscles and exo/internal skeleton merge into eachother.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charleston_church_shooting

I think that's what was referred to. Allegedly there has been a rise in black church burnings, and after the shooting above, many US states lowered their Confederacy flags and are in the process of removing that symbol from their state flag thingys.

This is big news if you live in the US only.

I'd assume that "why not both" is the Arachne biology answer to supporting such a massive quantity of weight and allowing sudden acceleration without breaking everything.

You drag yourself upright, much to the protest of your bed-mates.

You ignore the groans for the moment, whirling a sheet overhead, draping it around you like a cloak, or a dress. Or a giant-spider sized blanket being worn by a giant spider.

The secretary- Ren- is in the hall, leaning in the stairwell and flipping pages on her board. You yawn, loudly, scraping the side wall as you slip past her to the main floor. You blink once, twice, trying to clear your eyes, but you're still tired. Still feeling a little distant.

You look back up the stairs, to the woman already raising an eyebrow.

"Where- Where do you want it, yes?"
"Huh?"
"Bath."
"Where can you build it?"
"Rocks. Gotta be rocks."

She considers a moment before pointing you towards the rear.
"The training grounds, maybe? It should be solid back there."
"Yes. Kay. Firestones?"
"Firestones? Elemental stones?"
"For hot water. Yes."
"Ah. I'll have somebody take care of it."
"Kay."

You trudge out the back, ignoring the scent of breakfast for the time being, blanket-cloak flaring behind you.

She's wrong about the training ground. Lots of heaving packed dirt. Rock starts at the wall and... underneath? There. There it is. There's the little jolt as your power moves, flat ground suddenly opening into a yawning abyss. A yawning abyss with stairs.

A hallway, rooms to change in, vast, swelling tubs, heavy stone structures. Already filling with water as you watch, connected to the river itself. You test the temperature with one leg. It's cold.

So you make it less so.

Steam fills the room while you sit in the newly formed bath, patterns swirling out from you, shelves forming, each water source turning into a fountain or a gargoyle head. You almost nod off to the rhythmic sound of flowing water. It's nice. Calming.
>>
>>42015763
Only London, I'm afraid. Did you look at any other city in England? Dreadful.
>>
>>42015787
Eventually you have to get up again, head fuzzy, and stagger back out into the hateful sunlight. You scowl back at the burning orb slowly warming the world, and make for the safety of the guild proper.

Your stomach is starting to growl ominously, demanding sacrifice in the wake of your efforts. Ren is inside, sending a small group of eager looking men and women on a mission of some sort when you line up behind them.

A mage turns to face you as your chitin clicks together, eyes growing wider and wider.
Or maybe he's a priest? Or... you don't know. An adventurer with noodly looking arms.

"Wha- You- What are you?"
"Tired, yes."
You yawn again, brow furrowing, fangs exposed before your jaw closes again and you blink away tears.

"Eh- Thom, what are you doing?"
"Wha- I'm not doing anything! There's a giant spider in the guild! Why aren't you doing anything?"
"It's a giant spider adventurer. C'mon, we've got work to do."
"But- but-"
>>
>>42015356
Well really, it's not "spread in a circle" that matters.

It's this weight resting on eight INCREDIBLY SHARP points.
She should be puncturing the floors everywhere.
Hell, the /ground/? She oughta be sinking in it to the knee instantly.
>>
>>42015810
You wave goodbye as the adventurers file away, one dragging noodles out into the streets behind them.
Ren glances you over, apparently noting your slightly wet state of dress.
"D'you need materials? Or-"
"Nn. No, yes. Already done. You will need- Um. Lights. Doors. Yes."
"You're done?"
"Yes."
"Uh-"
"Can I take pay in food? Part of it? Right now, yes?"

She smirks suddenly, the fierce smile back again.
"Yeah, grab a seat. We'll bring something out."
"Mm. Meat, please. And plants for the moth."
"You got it."
"Just put it near me, and I will wake up on my own. Or I will find out how to eat while sleeping, yes."

You struggle across the hall, locating an empty table- it doesn't take much in the way of effort to push the bench aside, leaving you room to lie across the floor, your head dropping to the table. You're fairly certain you're snoring before long.

You wake to the beautiful sound of cutlery plinking off of each other, raising your head and bearing witness to the glory that is a table of meat. And a small bowl of salad.

But that isn't your concern.

Wonder how we have eaten meat up until this time WITHOUT cutlery.
Then realize we've been the greasy-hands gang for...ever.

Eventually get around to eating with fork and knife.

Just imagine, You're a young priest, here to spread the word of god to the human population, you decide to become an adventurer so that you can travel far and wide, you step into an adventurers guild and there is a Monster from legends... Yawning. And nobody is finding this weird. What do you do?

The magic castle detected our fingers as knives, I'm pretty sure we have built-in cutlery.
>>
>>42015863
our fingers are covered in what is probably at least semi smooth chitin, so a rag probably wipes off grease fairly well.

"Shit, shit, shit! That damn giant spider! Don't worry forge god-chan. I know what well do! We'll bribe her with blessings. That way she'll leave us alone."

On a side tangent I'm now imagining Re: Monster's god of rabbits at any of these meetings. Each time the other gods look over there are ever increasing numbers of rabbits surrounding it. When there are finally so many they're piled on top of each other the God opens a portal and kicks the pile of rabbits through it.

>>42016219
I am pretty sure we got that for subjugating the attacking werewolves
>>
>>42016050
L-lewd
>>
>>42016424
Technically we got it for taking the Tyrant evolution, which came from beating up the alpha and subjugating the wolves that way, but we could have also gotten it over Sovereign in which csse it would have been the defending of the town itself that qualified us. Blessings getting for monster seems kinda weird that way.
>>
>>42016513
>Technically we got it for taking the Tyrant evolution
I am pretty sure it is incorrect

you unlock blessings via actions

however, the blessings you have unlocked from acts are only given to you on levelup, but it doesn't matter which levelup you take, you get all the blessings you have unlocked since the last levelup.
>>
>>42016513
I thought blessings and evolutions were separate things, blessings for particularly notable tasks, and evolutions for doing more common things.
>>
>>42016567
>>42016591
Pretty sure these two have it right. That's how I've been doing it in the game I am running, anyway.
>>
>>42016567
>>42016591
I don't think we know for sure either way, I think Blessings unlocks are like the overall evilution unlocks, which means getting them means you can get the Blessing, but depending on your evolution you might not.
Or at least, I'm fairly sure we would not have gotten rulership if we had picked Deinos or Cinder or something like that.

If we would have gotten it either way, its basically impossible to tell which specific act of leading others got it for us, could have been any.
Actually taking the evolution might have been what did it because thats when Lyra 'accepted' rulership in a way.

The earth and fire Blessings suggest for your interpretation though, but then why would you only get the Blessing upon evolution?

>and evolutions for doing more common things.
That definitly depends on the evolution, some have some pretty interesting requirements.
>>
Yes, made it. Alright anons, got something good for you today. I feel like drawing, and in a more cartoony style than last time. Do you want
a) Spider-Human intimidation
b) Spider-Bee following
c) Spider-Moth comforting

Please give me your valuable opinions!
>FOR THE GLORY OF OP!
>>
>>42016744
B or C definitly. Also because it seems like those work better with a cartoony style.
>>
>>42016744
A
>>
>>42016698
I should have said more easily accomplished tasks instead of more common, in hindsight.
Though I think blessings being directly tied to evolutions is incorrect because, like you said, "its basically impossible to tell which specific act of leading others got it for us" it's possible that we got the blessing for showing that we are capable of leading overall. admittedly not particularly notable individually, but overall it can be impressive.
>>
>>42016744

Your eyes water at the sheer beauty of the platter.
Gently steam, perfectly cooked slabs of meat, their scents mixing-

You lick your lips, swallowing the drool already building and reach out.

No, not for the cutlery.

Half a plate vanishes into your unforgiving maw before your friends start to move- Jin and Sheszka stomp and hop, zombie-like, to the bench, seating themselves and digging in immediately. Nin drags the sole occupant of the table that isn't constructed entirely of dead animals to her seat, and starts chewing thoughtfully on the leaves.

Ezzy, the untrustworthy snake that she is, spirals over your shoulders and down to your hands, snatching bites of your food for herself.

Someone clears their throat, and you turn to face them.

There's a small crowd of adventurers, all types, sitting around the other side of the table. You finish chewing the slab of steak you narrowly finished shoving into your mouth when one starts to speak.

"Uh, Hello."
"Mphnmnmph."
"What?"
"Hello, yes."
"Hells, how fast can you eat?"
"I am a giant spider."

And with that out of the way, your attention snaps back to the issue at hand, which is a steak with a snake sized bite out of it. Ezzy is already slowing, growing fat around your wrist. You'll give her extra training for this.

"Um. Excuse me?"
Oh, they're still trying.

You try to focus your attention on the speaker- It's a woman, looking rather middle aged. The first touch of crows feet in the corners of her eyes, hints of grey in her hair. Aside from that, she seems well built. Armour, broad shoulders, all that-

"Are you the queen?"

You hack and choke on your mouthful of food, thumping your chest and knocking everything back into place as you wheeze.
"No! No, no!"
"Ah? I heard there was a-"
"There is no queen, yes. No city. People keep making assumptions!"
"Uh, sure. Right."
"Mhm. Was there anything else?"
>>
>>42016744
>c) Spider-Moth comforting
Cute!

>>42016744
A
I Pick A
>>
>>42016744
We already got several spider-moth, so heavy harted my preference would be the bee.
>>
>>42016982
"Why do you keep saying yes?"
"It is how we talk. And it is a habit I cannot be bothered to stop."
"Yes?"
"Just like that."

The woman glances down to the table, to the fact that she can see the wood already.
"So-"
"So?"
"You're doing training?"
"Sometimes. I will make room for it between other things, yes."
"How about now?"

You shake your head.
"I think, rather than training, I will be finishing my breakfast. And then not moving for a bit. After that, maybe."
"Well, I'll be waiting!"

The woman nods excitedly, standing and heading to the grounds, a small crowd following behind her, all sorts of people looking back at your table.

Nin speaks around a leaf of some sort in her mouth.
"Do you have any idea who that was?"
"No?"
"Oh. Me neither."
Ezzy snores loudly from your arm.

Welp, looks like it's Alpha. here we go!
I may be able to get to all of these, as well as a bonus one I want to do for shits 'n' giggles

My work schedule hasn't even been posted yet, so I have no idea when my next thread will be.

As per usual, comments and questions and all that fun stuff will be answered in thread!

>>42017032
thanks for running, guy.
And ezzy's ability to eat large food is strange. Snake people are strange.

that snake has problems, We really need to get her into shape, she's the only person in our group that hasn't hit her third tier yet.

welp, shit. Looks like this'll be appearing in the next thread, whenever that is. Pray that I find it.

Right there with you on work schedule problems. I just know I work until the next time the schedule is due out.

Thanks for another thread! Hmm if Lyra and company came across an adorable fluffy white kobold, Kitsune, and dragonling what would Lyra do? Other than adopt and head pat.
>>
>>42017032
Thanks for running, boss.
>>
>>42017032
Did you intentionally make Sheszka best girl?

What sort of adventurer did Elle stick in a dress against their will?

When will we admit to being Queen of the Forest?

Can we have more Sheszka time in the future?

We didn't get to talk to the dwarves this session, is that coming next session?

Is the bee princess joining the party? I hope so.
>>
>>42017032

Thanks for running.

Question, will the southerners start spreading north now that the Merchants are up in arms about trading, and if so how will the other nations of the continent treat them if they start to 'Misbehave' and start trying to spread their prejudices in public?

Like human supremacist priests trying to spread the gospel and all that?

Lyra understands that you can't just adopt other adventuring parties! The headpats would be temporary.

This must be known.
>>
>>42017131
Just to cut off the eventual anon asking. What is Lyra's response to a lizard taking one look at her screaming and running the other direction like their tail is on fire?
>>
>>42017138
One of Mom's old adventuring buddies, I'll bet.
>>
>>42017131
>Lyra understands that you can't just adopt other adventuring parties! The headpats would be temporary.
Even if they're cute, tiny, and cuddly like a teddy bear?
>>
>>42017131
I've got to ask, how will all of our imitate family react when they hear we've been crowned queen of the forest?
>>
>>42017163
>Even if they're cute, tiny, and cuddly like a teddy bear?
bears are not cuddly, they are delicious
>>
>>42017092
No? I'm glad you like her, though!

Elle stuck a rather scarred swordswoman in a wedding dress. Along with all the wolves.
All of them.

Probably never!

It'd be easier if you could somehow get her to stop hurting herself every combat!

There's no such thing as dwarves, though.

Bee princess related problems will undoubtedly pop up, but royalty has responsibilities, anon.

>>42017120
Thanks for playing!

There's already remnants of the church around. They're tolerated, so long as they don't start anything. Preach all you want, but whoever throws the first punch gets slapped.

>>42017157
Confusion and concern, most likely. Followed closely by an attempt to discover what is going on. Followed by a chase scene in a hall of doors with yakkety sax playing in the background.

>>42017163
Especially then! Kidnapping children is wrong, anon.

>>42017182
"What? It only took that long? She gave up early."
>>
>>42017209
People eat dogs, and use them as companion/work animals, why not do the same here
>>
>>42017273
because if lyra viewed them as cuddly it would break her heart in guilt.
>>
Has anyone heard from Argentorum? It's been almost a month since they last spoke and it make me worried for them?
>>
>>42017343
nah, just don't eat your bear and there is no guilt.
>>
>>42017348
Sometimes QM go poof, worried too but not much we can do.

>When will we admit to being Queen of the Forest?
Probably if we rebuild the city and not before.

On the topic of rebuilding the city, I've had an idea regarding the road to the south.

The current roads are adequate but run the risk of monster attack and bandits. We'll call this the green road.

If we wanted to establish more steady trade to the south we could use earth magic to create an elevated roadway, above the level of much of the forest canopy.
Or the most dangerous elements of it.
Like Roman roads every so often there would be a small pit stop area for water, pumped up by windmill or supplied by water stones. They could also be used as potential harpy roosts.

Most importantly if there were even an invasion from the south it would be essential for an invading army to try and gain control of this road or they would find themselves trapped.
We could design the road with that in mind, specificity to trap an army there rather than after they reached the city. Part of the road could be designed to be magically collapsed with earth magic or another way.
Kind of like the bridge collapse at the end of Shadow of the Colossus.
>>
>>42017092
>When will we admit to being Queen of the Forest?
Well, for one thing we need to actually be recognized as queen by the other arachne.
>>
>>42017549
>>42017254
>"What? It only took that long? She gave up early."

They already do.
>>
>>42017583
Lyras family are only a few of the arachne of the forest.
>>
>>42017626
yea, remember how they all gathered to kill the necromancer.
they apparently have some form of society we never explored
>>
Not sure if this make it in but REQM why didn't you tell us about Horse over on SB?
