[Fortuna]: Luck depends on no one....right? (4/3)

> Nikki: Chime in with YOUR opinion.

[Helios thank you so much for taking notes you are always so attentive and a good pal. Please give us a recap.]

You're welcome but you don't have to flatter me. I am just attempting to be useful. Sadly I have no pictures to go with this recap, but I'm sure you won't care too much.



I offered to draw the images for him but he refused and told me he would do them himself. He didn't like anything he drew so he tossed it all away.



I don't remember that happening.



Exactly!



..........Anyway let's recap the situation.

((Recap, only read if you need to))

We arrived towards the planet after hearing a signal and Cleo begging to go. As we approched we picked to head to the bridge. The area is split in to two settlements, one which hosts the Geko army and the other which is hosting artists. The area was described as having a clock no one could find, due to it constantly tolling every hour despite no one being able to see it.

As we landed, Marble took out her tablet, likely causing the giraffe to be summoned to our location. It too the ship with it. The ship contained Slate and Edel. Two Husses that you helped helped us in to town, and offered advice. With it we went to Bob's place. He told us of a few places we could go, but mainly that Oooo could help us with our situation. Cleo at this point fixed his panel, making it so no one would be able to get in to without his permission.

Some highlights of info we obtained are that surrealists have moved by in to a building in town, possibly to escape Dali. They are noted as being friendly, yet untrusting. A high charisma character is likely going to be needed for this issue. We were also told about a ship being guarded by a large beast outside of town. The beast is at least strong enough to fend off Dali's giraffes.

With info in hand, we went to the tunnels to buy good from Pablo, a person with a sick cat who needed clocks for their own transformation. We traded goods and got a box, scrap and wires for it. Sadly we will be unable to use the scrap and wires on Bob as Cleo is now sick. Seeing Apollo v3 Pablo noted that he could be traded with a strange person for money and something Pablo wanted. We took that deal but instead of giving Pablo anything we took everything, this being having Nikki on our team and the money. We decided if we find nothing we plan to give Pablo the money, if we find a clock, we'll give Pablo that.

We have no idea if that's what Pablo wants but it is what we are doing.

Once we finished with that, Nikki left to go take Apollo to who knows where. We went to Oooo and the rest is history from there. We have a lot on our plate but I believe we'll get through this just fine. The risk of death is high so proceed with caution.

[Thanks Helios! So one idea is if we end up at the place where our ship is, we'll also be in the same general place as where the party is. So it probably couldn't hurt to stick around for the early part of it, just long enough to make a ruckus that might draw out a limbo god with how cool and popular and trend breaking and attention-getting we are, while also having our hand on the launch button.

Also we'd need some time for Nikki to fix things so we can have a fixed ship and then leave them on this planet when we leave. we are not bringing them with us off-planet.]

Yes thank you patron for that recap! I agree co-player, we want to attempt to finish this quest. It would be a boring planet if we had all this build up, only for us to decide to leave before it's finished. Still, we have more important matters to attend to then the destruction of one planet. We want to draw out that limbo god but we want to do it safely.



I say we bring Nikki with us though. I didn't fully approve of taking him before, but, call it a hunch co-player, but I think he will be a very useful tool in our box, plus, every dumb robot kneels to his will! It's an aggressive play but it can pay off in the long run. Plus, if you want to get rid of him, with your luck you can put him on another ship just like last time. Hahahaha!

[An opportunity to meet a Limbo god is too good to miss, so I'd like to go to this party if possible. This lady probably isn't a limbo god, but we might be able to learn something about it through her. However, we should be careful not to lose our crew because of some killing. We'll have to prepare to get out, and keep crew on our indestructible ship as a precaution in case things go south and the planet ends up destroyed.]

Losing crew is part of the game, it is bound to happen and we should prepare to always protect ourselves from total party kills. I'm sure such a thing will happen to you sooner or later. You need to mentally prepare yourself to accept your defeat, and then get right back up. Do not let death consume you or the crew!

[You know, my instincts tell me to stuff everybody's inventories with free food and drink from the party.]

We should steal as much as we can! This planet is lawless, crimes here mean nothing. Steal everything not chained to the floor, and murder? We don't need to worry about killing the wrong person on this planet co-player! Revenge or backlash from some police or even pirate group is near impossible if it happens here. How do they say it, what goes in Tartarus stays in Tartarus!



Anyway. I do wish to have a chat with Dali's Lady, co-player. I have some thoughts on her. I won't say anything for fear of attracting attention though. I'm sure you may have some sneaking suspicions as to who this lady is. Keep it under wraps for now, I don't want anyone eavesdropping on us. What is your plan though?



Do you wish to get in to the party early or on time? If we get there early we might be able to surprise the lady, and have more time to start a plan or movement. If we get there on time we won't have to rush anything else before that, like finding our ship. I'm sure our ship won't be in some sort of peaceful meadow waiting for us.



I do worry most about what was said about the party. They said, once you enter, you will not be able to leave. They will likely force us to stay once the party starts. I don't know what sort of issues we'll run in to but with a Mors and Somnus unit on their side they likely have devastating items with them. Did you see the look in that Somnus's eyes? Aggressive! Feral! That Somnus unit is likely an absolute beast, and his sister? Well to be honest she looked fairly harmless, but a person who wears a suit must know what they're doing!
