Boxborg's Webquest [Textastic]

You are now Boxborg. Created out of old cardboard boxes by an uncaring master, abandoned to a world you know nothing about. Scant minutes after he created you, he even ripped open one of your arms, just to steal one of your precious innards.
Fortunately, the nice green guy with the big smile patched you up, good as new! He even told you that there might be a way to become a full-fledged living being, instead of this kinda-animatated hunk of cardboard and various junk.
Now, truth be told, youâre not entirely sure that that is a thing that you want, deep in your heart of hearts (which happens to be a set of dishes), but you donât have anything better to do, and that green guy seemed to think that it was a thing a person should want, so there you go.
Youâre not actually sure what you might want, seeing as youâre the inside of your noggin is made up of two tool boxes, a collection of screws, bolts, washers and nails, and some assorted scrap items. Thinking is not your strong suit, is what Iâm trying to convey, here.
Long story short, you left your erstwhile master a Beautifully Composed And Written Note, informing him that you were leaving and that you never wanted to see him ever again ever. It would bring a tear to your eye, if you had an actual eye and not just one the green guy drew on you in black permanent marker. You then stealthily made your way out of town (by which I of course mean you marched right through the streets, in broad daylight, making no effort to conceal yourself in any way), and are now at large.
The green guy told you that you needed to talk to⦠the⦠um⦠Gaggle Orifice? No⦠Goggle Mackeral? Not that either⦠Googly Jar-a-pickles? Something like that. You know he said that you have to cross through the Lands of Wacky Uh to get to the Search M&M where youâll find the Moogle Follicle. At least you think thatâs what he said. Since you donât have ears, or eyes, or a brain to interpret signals from either of those things, you kinda mess things up some times.
Problem is, you donât actually know where that stuff is. So you guess youâll just kind of pick a direction and start walking. Thatâll probably work. So! North, south, east, or west? You do know your directions, because thereâs a compass in one of your shoulders! So no worries there. Up North it looks pretty much flat. Yep. Flatness. Exciting! To the South also looks pretty flat, but there are some pretty cool clouds out that way. To the East you think you can hear a kind of wooshy crashy sound. And to the West, the ground goes up! Neat. Itâs all neat!
