Hexagonal II Strunk

II Hexagonal Strunk (a.k.a. Hex 2)

Hexagonal was born to a legacy unlike most others. As the first son of Primerica, a city on the rise! he inherited a lot of expectations from his father. And since his disappearance, it seems more than just a few trinkets ...

My Girlfriend in Kathe ... is DEAD!

JAAAAADDDDEEEE!

My Girlfriend in Kathe
1091 AoD

It's been so long I can't remember anymore ... was Jade really my girlfriend in Kathe or did we just hookup in that town that sounds like Anisburg? Enematown? Or was it someone else I hooked up with .... uh oh ...

Ain’t no sweeter sound than a Hex I, found
25 Florst 1091 AoD

I’m beginning to think Kabril really might not know what he says he does. It was just yesterday he was telling me he wasn’t entirely sure where daddy Hex was, and then BAM, he’s showing up right in the middle of this world’s imminent global crisis! This just stinks of poor planning meets random chance and I’m very aware of the irony of me saying that.   Ok, so what’s next. Big Hex doesn’t seem to know who I am. He seems to really think he’s this William guy that’s an advisor to that cute Empress girl. So definitely I need to figure that out … probably the only way to get a chance to talk with him is to go along with these “save the empire” tasks and get on Queen Cutie’s good side. And then maybe fix his brain? Or find out what’s happening here? 3 months seems like a really short time to set yourself up as a senior advisor to an empress in a world they know nothing about … right? Ugggh, maybe I do need to get Kabril’s help for this …

Dancing With The Templars

So that didn't go quite as smoothly as it could of, but we learned something important today: those Templars are really nasty! We gotta save that little girl from them! Lazulia and I were vibing in the morning and had to go find out if the little dragon princess was still around, but big wet blanket Maltorio Carrosis just had to tag along and almost ruined the whole thing! We were about 7/8 of the way through a really slick operation when Mal started blabbing about way too many details, got that mean secretary thinking things we did not want her thinking. Anyways, I don't think anyone could have predicted just how grumpy the Templars were, manhandling a nice lady like Lazulia. We got out of there pretty easy and at least we learned that the crew taking the magic kid to the tower have already moved on (they didn't even stop for lunch!)   Game plan: do this heist for the Fur Man, get some gold and some info on Hex I maybe? escape the girl get far far away from those Templars, they're grumpy Guses!! or ... infiltrate their order, sow discontent from within, teach them the value of friendship?

Goblins here are mean!
13 Florst

And then out of the dead of night goblins everywhere! First thought — oh nice, finally someone wants to party in this weird land — but no! They came with a mean look and sharp knives and we had to stab them all of them. What got them so mad at us? We were just sleeping and napping, I didn’t even have armour on! I’ll have to ask Reynora what was up, I think she was awake through it all …

Map Markers Point The Way
10 Florst, 1091 AoD

We had defeated the undead evil that Roan's corpse had become and discovered a secret passage beneath his (false?) sarcophagus...   Taking my first few steps down the hewn rock ladder, I knew we were onto something. This place was old, untraveled, steeped in secrets; ██████ was right to send me here. The cavern below reminded me of home...
The cavern below reminded me of home; the stillness of the water, thickness of the air. It was like something you would find yourself wandering into if you strayed too far from the mountain pass on patrol. One minute walking in step, then a feeling, a distraction, a thought that there might be something just off the path. Between moments, the rest of the guard are gone, but you are pressing on nonetheless, driven by a sense of adventure -- maybe this path holds my destiny, fortune, or death. There's only one way to find out.
The temple was a gem deep in the mountain. It's importance was obvious and unignorable. It was so clearly forbidden that every bone in my body ached to explore it. Looking inside, its desecration was also unignorable. Its dark obsidian structure and carved raven's heads said this was of the Raven Queen, who wasn't unknown back home, but we were followers of Erathis through and through. To see something of this magnitude was a treat. And it seemed fitting that this tomb of heroes would be memorialised under her sign. To see that twisted by some unknown evil was powerful unsettling. Stepping inside some things became clear.   Dark powers threaten this world. They are calling their agents to action, or creating them by tainting powers that be. If my father is here, there's no doubt he's wrapped up in this, pulled into this mystery to play what role? There are more temples, or other places of note ... marked on the map inside the temple. Are they corrupted? Will they be soon? Who defends them? We need to learn more. There is no going back now. ██████ will give me the strength I need to do this.

Dead Wighty
10 Florst, 1091 AoD

Spooky Barrow

What a day in the dungeon! We snuck into this guy Roan's old house and it was full of blades and dark magics. I got the spooks just looking at the tendrils of black energy zapping down through the top of the dirt pile. We ran in pretty recklessly (which I'm totally about) even though Lazulia was complaining the whole time and dragging her feet. Her loss! I got to jump right in and play with a bunch of swinging blades -- I'll definitely talk to ██████ about getting some of those in our vessel; great workout!  

Fight The Wight

It wasn't long before we found this Wight guy napping on his throne but we woke him up for a fight. I was thinking something like
"you gotta pay you big zombie! Give us yer gold I'm the king of the pirates!"
but I didn't get to say it out loud cause Hetz was doing his chit chat thing where he says mean things to people without them realising it. The fight was sweet:
  1. Wighty raised his hands and zombies came alive; I say the word of radiance and zap 'em
  2. The zombies are scared and running away; thrust into Wight with Erathis' divine wrath
  3. Zombomination! It's cold! Burn it!; flame up my sword and heat slash that sucker
  4. Mal's an angel and he cut off Wighty's head; glory!
  AWESOME -- ok, I'm going to write another one of these about what happened next cause we opened up the creep's sleeper coffin and there was a whole other place in there

Trial by Combat
9 Florst, 1091 AoD

I wrestled a giant pirate and won and now I'm king of the guards!

Wight Hair Don't Care
9 Florst, 1091 AoD

So we fought the worm and it was really squishy with a huge belly full of lumberjacks. Then we went to bed in the cabins that had some zombies hiding in them, but we didn't care because this is just the adventuring life -- roaming the jungle by day and drinking mead under the stars by night, waking up at dawn and scrambling to find all the pieces of your splint armour before Lazulia gets too handsey -- such a life! Oh, I almost forgot! Late late at night, after I'd taken my armour off the trees woke up (they're very still during the day in this world) and followed after this white haired fellow. I ran after him (seems interesting right?) but got a real bad vibe from him. He's definitely not alive, and not dead neither. I didn't check, but I'm not thinking Erathis or Kabril would be too keen on that! After I got a peek of the deadie the trees wanted to dance and we had some fistings before a good sleep.

Kabril // V Chill
8 Florst, 1091 AoD

Kabril came to me in the night -- He has a banging pad! Gilded couches, gilded footrests, gilded bar cart -- this Dao's got it all! All I can say is "Dao chicka dao wow!" On top of that, he says he's got a line on where Hex I might be and can give be a hand in finding him. This'll be a cinch -- bring on the exploding zombies!

Another day in the forest
7 Florst, 1091 AoD

Seriously I think the trees started talking to me. I've been walking around here for DAYS since I last saw another soul and I am definitely hearing things. Weird voices, well just one, but weird! And shadows! And this isn't what I signed up for!
