"That easy?"

"It's easier than actually doing it, but yes."

The further you go, the more desolate the land seems to get. Eventually, you see a crumbling down and realize you're probably very close.

"How did this land get so...bad?"

"The Nightmare Tyrant. That's who. Before him, this used to be a beautiful and bustling land of nature and magic. Its sad what he's done to it."

"Even more reason to get the stone. What do we do with it once we have it?"

"That is still under consideration. As I said, all of our plans are still in the works and there's a lot of trial and error before we can even act, much less try to take on the Tyrant."

"Wait. So you don't even have a plan? We are just gonna go in and grab it and hopefully, I don't get killed?"

"We've been working on a plan, and while I won't say what it is, just trust me that it is something which has been well thought out and should work."

You sigh.

"Fine."

"Glad to see you're reasonable for a change, that's all I can ask for."

You and your new allies travel for a while longer until you eventually reach the mountain pass. The Nightmare Tyrant's Fortress is located just at the other side of it. It looks almost as big as the mountain itself, which puts it one above every other building in the area. You stop and stare at the castle. You start to sweat and get nervous.

"Should we go on?" Fortis asks.

"Yeah...I just...I think I need to go to the bathroom." You say.

"You need to go?" Fortis says.

"I haven't gone all day. Geez. Gimme a break."

"I don't have time to wait for you."

"Just leave me alone! I'll be right back."

You run away without looking back. You find a big tree and sit down in front of it. You take a moment to recuperate, but soon you're on your way again. You move with haste, but try not to rush as you sneak past several Nightmare Tyrant's minions.

"How much further?"

"Not much, we're almost there." Fortis says.

"Good, because I'm not waiting around here for him to strike again."

"Who?"

"That guy who cut up those girls we passed."

Even in your state of panic and anxiety, you can't help but notice the strange looks you're getting.

"I should've changed before this. I think people are starting to recognize me. Is there magic I can use to make myself look different?"

"I think so, but why were you still wearing that hoodie?"

"Oh, I was too nervous to take it off."

"We're almost there." Fortis says.

You keep walking.

"I want to go over some of the fighting techniques we were going over before you had that emergency meeting." Fortis says.

"Sure."

"Good, now do you remember the steps?"

You look at the girl and think for a moment.
