The city was filled with homes of many, most of the citizens fancy themselves with costumes and parties, since monsters in the area drop more money than in Terra Kingdom, killing monsters in the caves of the Jungle is the best way to make money, and best way to create jungle weapons, which most people have.

"Ah yis! Young majesty darling, fancy to browse my wares young royal?" A woman dressed in leaves attempts to attract Jack. "I'll take the cheapest one, I really don't have time, but I'll drop by again once I do have the time." Jack accepted to buy a jungle ring, costing him 20 silver.

"Thank you, young royal! may your rule in Terra last a century!" She cried, then immediately chattered to her customers about her once in a lifetime event.

"Why give away money in an already free and rich society?" Victor inquired.

"She seemed nice, I can't bring myself to say no, I'm too soft and all that." Jack told, but it planted the thought of that being his weakness in battle with other Otherworlds.

The two men kept looking around and searching for The Dryad, and finally, Jack decided:

"We should split up, the Kingdom is bigger than I last remembered." Jack announced to Victor. "Alright, where should we meet up though?" Victor asked a good question. "Ivy Castle, just outside the walls, in case we don't find her today, there's always tomorrow." Jack answered. Victor nodded in agreement and left. Jack told him this so he can be alone, he swiftly returned to the Jewelry store.

"Oh young king! I didn't expect for you to return, so early!" The woman exclaimed, she really didn't even expect him to return at all.

"You guys sell molten armor?" Jack asked, it didn't occur to him that this was a Jewelry shop.

"No darling, but keep searching, its pretty darn easy to follow the Armor and Weapons shop." The woman pointed at the sky, actually there was a line of smoke coming from one of the residences.

Jack saw this, and thanked the lady.
"How adorable for someone with much power..." The woman thought, as Jack ran off the distance.

Jack ran towards the smoke, but then he noticed someone. He stopped for a minute.

He looked around, he noticed people suddenly staring at him, but none of them was the figure he had seen.

Wha- whats going on?

Jack's head was spinning, it was spinning, and spinning...

My mind...why...why is it...

Jack collapsed in a middle of the crowd of citizens, they immediately called the doctors to treat him at the castle, he was a king after all.

Meanwhile, Victor was looking for The Dryad. "Man, I kinda wanna go back now, but I have to find her to get Jack back to his normal old self." Victor told himself.

Victor has searched half the town at this point, and since it was still too early, it would be nice to pleasure himself by exploring the market.

The market was filled with goods from across the world, they got books from Terra, golden fishing rods from Aqueous, obsidian roses and skulls from Dark, Flinx robes and staves from Snowdon, and chisels from Paradise(Desert).

Victor really wanted one of those chisels, there was no use in mining, but it would be really convenient to get one for himself.

As he was about to purchase the chisel, he noticed a girl with an armor he has never seen before.

It seemed to be themed around gold, but it wasn't gold at all, it looked like honey, but such armor like that before. Wait, could it be...?

"Hey...um.. Ma'am!" Victor dropped the chisel, he was yelled at, but he didn't notice and didn't care.
"Are you one of the soldiers who slayed the Queen Bee?" Victor asked with burning curiosity and excitement.
