With Jade's determination, our six heroes arrived in Glutt five days later.
Sam: "Looks like we made it."
Jake collapses onto the ground.
Jake: "(breathing uncontrollably) Haven't moved like that. (pauses) Ever."
Jay: "Can you please shut up? I know you need a break to help your breathing."
Jade picks up Jake.
Jade: "Let's go find a place to sit."
Alyssa: "(yawning) When we find someplace to sit I'll take a nap."
The six stroll throughout town, seeing a lot of 300 pound people.
Jay: "Gluttony basically means fatass right?"
Jade: "The sooner we take care of Gluttony, the sooner we can take care of Alcionus."
The six find a nice place to sit by the inn, with Alyssa immediately falling asleep.
Ruby: "Jade, thanks for letting us take a break."
Jade: "Thanks?"
Ruby: "Well, you don't usually take a break. You tend to constantly want to fight or get a step closer to Alcionus, but here, you're letting us catch a breather and not even tapping your foot."
Jade: "(blushes) Well, if we didn't have this break we would probably kill ourselves."
Sam: "She also pointed out that you aren't tapping your foot."
Jay: "Looks like someone finally learned how to lighten up."
Jade: "Well, after these two take care of their issues, we're storming the palace for the seventh time."
An hour passes.
Jake: "I should be fine. (in head) I hope."
Alyssa: "(yawning) Nap time over?"
Jade: "Let's get going!"
The six walk up to the palace and Jade slices off the heads of the two fat guards with her broadsword.
Ruby: "Fuck."
The six traverse through the palace, outrunning any and all fatasses.
Guard: "(sweating) Stop!"
Jay: "How about you give up?"
Jay walks up to the guard and uses his nunchucks to fracture the guards skull.
Jade: "Stop wasting time."
The six continue to the outside of the throne room to find Gluttony eating a boulder.
Gluttony: "(mouth full) I'm eating."
Jay: "How the fuck can he eat pure rock?"
Ruby: "Gluttony's ability allows him to eat anything and temporarily obtain properties of what he ate."
Gluttony finishes his... boulder, his skin appears to harden.
Gluttony: "(burping) Tasty."
Jade: "All you need to do is hit harder!"
Jade uses her broadsword to attempt to stab Gluttony.
Gluttony: "Oh yeah, you brats are here."
Gluttony repels the blade and throws Jade into a wall.
Jade: "The abilities don't last very long."
Jake sends a large chunk of ice at Gluttony.
Gluttony: "(drooling) Food..."
Gluttony eats the ice in one bite.
Jake: "(switching to bow form) Watch."
Jake sends a bolt of lightning at Gluttony, shocking Gluttony unconscious.
Sam: "I'm jealous that you get something like that."
Jay and Jade take care of the king and freeing next gen Gluttony.
Jade: "Move now."
Ruby: "Alright."
Alyssa was asleep the whole time.
Sam: "I got her."
The six bolt it.
Jake: "I'll handle cooking tonight."
Jay: "It's kinda your job."
The six quickly get away from Glutt and are moving on to their final stop, Agnonia.
