S:1 First Dungeon in a While.

by The Crimson Hero! Morrigan Maygal

A dark stormy night, the captain received word of a treasure in a cave where the tide can trap you inside. Really weird place for a cult to make their hideout. A cult of a big sea squid......OOH, they can probably breath underwater like Calliope can...when she is a squid of course. Had to endure the boring part of what the captain calls "Dungeon Crawling" kind of a weird name, we never crawl and it sounds creepy. She brought out her friends and even after so many years I have to brace myself, my first year on this ship was the first time I ever saw a spider...shudder. I've seen the dinosaurs she turns into, sort of, but never a spider.
 
Anyway, they forced me to whisper and walk slowly as we went through. I know it's safer and everything, but it's a little unsportsman like. I mean we are breaking in, the least we can do is announce our presence and take them on, but Zephy always thinks I can't take something on. That is the whole point! Taking on strong opponents is easily worth weeks or months of training! I listen to them and go along with it. Until they broke into this guys bathroom, it screamed as us and I was excited to take him on and test out my skills....but I disrupted it's ki and froze him in place with my Hidden Arte: Stillness of Death! I expected it to break it and we would have a nice back and forth. After a few seconds he was not doing well and I started to feel bad, he wasn't as strong as he looked. Anaxa was keen to finish him and he unfortunately went down. Everyone said it was a monster, but we did kind of rush in his room and beat the hell out of him.
 
The cave was getting cold and we found some stuff that wasn't that exciting, EXCEPT this nice himation for Zephy and a pretty crown that actually went over my horns! They kept sneaking through and I wasn't paying a lot of attention until they said wait here and I heard a loud noise way down the hall. I can get places quickly with my TrailBlazing Hamstring magic heehee. In an instant I flew past everyone into the face of some guy. I hoped he was strong and I even asked him! But one punch and he fell over asleep...so disappointing. Then some crazy black liquid was trying to eat the captain, every time she hit it, it had a baby like the way she does all the time. Then these evil water things tried to surround Anaxa and Calliope, I tried to kick it off of Calliope but injured her instead, and Zephy yelled at me....It was hurting my friend and I wasn't thinking, I guess she was right.
 
We took out all the cult people, I knocked them out and felt good that we were safe and could move on, then Anaxa started cutting their throats and....and...and.... she took time to cut their.....their things off. And tried to lecture us while waving one at me....to think this would be the first time I see...one. siiiiiiigh. Maybe it's just another Merian thing. Zephy did not seem too amused, but she also wasn't disapproving so I couldn't tell.
 
There must be a strong guy at the ritual thing...maybe even an enemy that might become an ally...a cute one...who likes redheads .
