Why is this slow!!!

The blackness quickly begins to fade away, the color of your skin dominating once more in a manner of moments. However, you realize you'll need to maintain this consciously, or else your skin will simply slowly fade back to the darker shade.

A price for everything, fool

The voiced whispers now, buried deep within your mind. With a growl, you stand from your bed, grabbing hold of your safari cap that had been placed next to your bed.

Sir Oswald still slept soundly, his leg kicking as he dreamed.

You let Oswald sleep, instead sitting cross legged on your bed, and attempt to push your perception inwards. This monster inside you, you had to find a way to be rid of it, to gain a better control over your own body and soul. This was all still new, and the looming dread of what may happen if the shadow takes control full your decision.

You sit in silence, your eyes closed as you try to use what little you have learned of meditation.

>Roll intelligence, Then Roll Wisdom
Hahaha, do you think you’ll stand a chance boy?

Double failure

Almost as soon as you tried, you were thrown back to the waking world, physically being thrown back to the headboard. You lsam into it, and it into the wall, putting a dent in the wall and waking Oswald with a start, the dog letting out a panicked bark as he looked around in a panic.

[Spoiler]You are weak boy. It’s only a matter of time before this farce you call free will ends. [/spoilers]

“Hell, I’m glad you’re awake boy, but couldn’t you wake me up a bit nicer? You’ve been shaving the years off me lately.” He said with a smile, looking over to you. “How’re you feeling?”

How do you respond?
>Ask about the Mercenary?
>Ask about the Drone?
>Ask about the other dogs?
>Tell Oswald about the voice?
>Other?

>>1547730
Wait, didn't this anon >>1547320 roll a twenty for intelligence?

>>1547730
>>1547891
Never mind, just noticed it was a reroll.

As for what we should do...maybe telling Oswald about the voice first would be a good idea?

>>1547730
>Tell Oswald about the voice and that its name is AKU Master of Masters, the Deliverer of Darkness, the Shogun of Sorrow.

QM use Ctrl+S for spoiler tags instead of typing them manually.

>>1547730
Ask about what happened while we were out so that we can get answers for the first three questions at the same time.

THEN tell him about the voice. Maybe do a little something with one of our hands to show him just exactly what happened to us?

>>1547730

support i change to this from this >>1548206
but we are going to do that also but last

He tells you that the drone was dead after you had smashed its head into the crystals. However, something foul must have been in that oil he thinks, because you had started to scream and fell unconscious a little after the oil got into your eyes.

“If it hadn’t been for that Yol girl, I might not have been able to get your out of there in time to save your eyes.”

He then looked towards your hands, a look of relief on his hands “Looks like your hands cleared up. Was afraid you were having an allergic reaction or something of the like.”

You look to Oswald with worry, thinking about the voice in your head and what it had said. It might truly be a matter of time before it revealed itself again, and if it took over, what would it do to those around you? You could not risk that without at least someone knowing.

Taking a deep breath, you let the blackness return, and explain to Oswald the voice and the visions. You tell him of the creature that tried to eat away your will during the fight. You tell him Aku, at least a part of him, resides within you.

The dog is silent, stunned from what you’ve told him. His gaze is a distant, before finally returning to you with a resolute stare “We need to talk to the others on this. Maybe they’ll have an idea of what we can do, or at least how all this started.”

He stands and looks worried “Is he speaking to you now? Has he been fighting this whole time?”

You shake your head, telling him besides a few whispers, there has been nothing.

“Good, then maybe there’s still time. I’m going to go and gather the older members I trust, and we’ll see if we can’t gather any useful knowledge from the crockpot of experience we have.” he said, heading towards the door. He turned back just before exiting “Stay here, i’ll be back soon enough.”

With that, he was gone, and you were left alone.

The dogs can’t save you boy.

You ignore the voice, looking to the wall on the other side. You could listen to Oswald, he was trying to help you after all. However, there was an odd noise from your window. Pebbles from below were hitting what little glass was left, though most were flying into your room and bouncing across your ground.

>Ignore window?

>Investigate?

>Search elsewhere in the building?

>Other?

>>1550233
Who the fuck is throwing those rocks? Let's find out.

>>1550233
>Investigate

>>1550233
>Investigate?

>Investigate

You get up from your bed and head to the window, side stepping a rock that was thrown through the window before poking your head out. Down below your window stood Yol the mercenary, smiling when she saw you “Oh good, you ain’t dead. How’re you feelin?”

She asked, tossing a rock up and then catching it repeatedly “That beetle drone really got ya with the oil splash from the looks of it.”

>The Whole truth?
>Lie?
>Other?

>>1552644
Go down to her and tell her the whole truth. Sure we'll probably alienate her or maybe she'll try to kill us, but we gotta be upfront about this shit. It's not our fault this happened, you know?
Besides, she's just outside the house so Sir Oswald can still find us easily.

Can't find the first thread on suptg. Was it archived?

sorry i meant ""i think there was something in the oil that my genes reacted to" show her the arms

seems no consensus was reached, so i'll roll a die and we'll go with that. 1 is whole truth, 2 is the gene.

Charisma Success

You consider telling her the truth, letting her know everything. However you hold yourself back. You couldn't be sure she would respond well, and if she didn't think you were crazy, what if she told the other mercenaries?

You force the darkness on your arms to recede, then climb down to Yol. who seems surprised an archeologist like you would do that. You land in a huff in front of her and stand tall, noting you stand about maybe a couple inches above her.

"Feeling alright, though my eyes are still pretty sore.l Whatever was in that drone sure isn't appealing to the eyes." You say, rubbing your eyes and watching her smirk.

"Well then, since you’re not bed ridden anymore,” she said, tossing you a gun. “My boss wanted me to go patrol the settlement, figured I’d get you to tag along, Mister Beetle slayer.”

You look at the gun, a little unsure of holding a real weapon instead of some tool. It’s weight was different, heavier in presence than in your hands.

“Hopefully this gun’ll do better than that shitty pick you and that mutt in the mine were using.”

>Go with Yol to patrol ?

>Stay home?

>Follow after Oswald?

>Other?

>>1563149
Go with Yol. Drones don't need sleep to attack people at night. Raiders do.
Besides, the whole camp will be safer for it. And Oswald used to be a fighter or else he wouldn't be SIR Oswald. He'd understand we need to make up for what happened to us.
At least, I hope so.

Someone already archived Akuling Quest 1. But what the fuck tag is "Samarii"?

>>1563199
Holy shit whoever archived the last thread is a fucking retard. Even the description is retarded.

>>1563202
>>1563199
Someone typo'd archaeologists, cannot spell "samurai", and gave a really bad description. So I tried to archive the thread better but it didn't take. So the description and tags on the /qst/ archive are broken permanently. Thanks to the illiterate idiot who archived it.

Qm say if you are going to bed or just going away or the next time you are here

You follow Yol, deciding as long as you wer ein the settlment Sir Oswald could find you. Yol leads the patrol, you behind her as you held onto the gun, the sky dark and full of stars.

One of the perks of living in the ruins was how clear the skies were, just far enough away from the cities to reveal the universe that lay just beyond the sky.

Yol doesn't seem to pay much attention to the sky, instead she seems legitimately focused on something else entirely. If your personal experience was anything to go on, Yol looked like her mind was wandering.

Some rocks tumble down from a ruined shop, causing Yol to glance and stop her movement, as well as pull her from her thoughts.

>What do you do?

>>1566043
Will do

>>1570390
Something on your mind, Yol? Wanna talk?

Still alive over there people?

(Yeah, I was just waiting for mor epeople. I guess I'll go forward)

Yeah sorry guys, I think I'll have to give up on this. I'm having a hard time getting motivated to post for this quest, and I've quickly realize I have no idea where to go.

Sorry to have waisted your time. Someone can take over for me if they want to continue this, but I don't think I can be motivated enough to Continue this particular quest

>>1575922
Fuck. I guess there can be someone else out there? I don't think I can.

>>1576003
Yeah sorry man. I do wanna do this idea, but I can't really think of anywhere to go. I think I've left myself with very little direction to go.

I'm probably going to try this quest running again soon, but hopefully with a bit of abetter idea of what I'm doing.

>>1576135
No problem. I can still archive this thread if you want.

>>1576307
Sure, that'd be nice.

>>1576329
Done. http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/qstarchive/1543517/
