Kitsune: leans closer Still remember me, like a shadow ya can't shake?
Yeah, you were there for me in the dark, always whispering tales of brave deeds and hidden truths.
Hm, memories are tricky, ya know? They can play tricks on ya, but they can also reveal secrets. Ever think about what really happened that night?
No...or yes, i guess, but i was so young...
Well, let me jog your memory then. pulls out an old, worn-out journal You remember this, right? It belonged to the princess we saved all those years ago.
Damn, it's been so long since I've seen that thing. What's with the funny drawing on the cover, though? Looks like some kid's sketch of a mess!
smirks Ah, but you see, that "funny drawing" holds the key to unlocking a secret passage within the palace.
Secret passage? Are you shitting me? Now that's something worth exploring! Lead the way, Kitsune. Let's uncover some ancient treasure or kick some royal ass, whichever comes first.
grinning mischievously Oh, you have no idea what we're about to find, Chirizo. Prepare yourself for the ride of your life! starts rummaging through the dusty palace halls, searching for the hidden entrance
Alright, lead the way, Kitsune. Just remember, if there's treasure, it's mine, lol!
opens a hidden door concealed behind a tapestry, revealing a dark, cobweb-filled passageway Well, here we are, Chirizo. Welcome to the secret passage.
Hell yeah, Kitsune! This is freaking awesome! But wait, ain't it a bit dusty in here? Are we gonna get cooties or something?
Cooties? Pfft, you city folk are so dramatic. Don't worry, I've got this covered. whips out a small bottle of potion from their pocket
Gotta love your magic tricks, Kitsune. So, what's this gonna do, a disinfectant or some shit?
Disinfectant? Nah, this isn't just any ordinary potion. This, my friend, is a special brand of spider tamer elixir.
Spider tamer elixir? Wait, are you telling me we're gonna run into spiders in this creepy ass place? Fuck, Kitsune, why didn't you warn me?
grins wickedly Oh, come on now, Chirizo! Where's your sense of adventure? Spiders are just a little added bonus to the treasure hunt. Besides, they're harmless.
Ha-harmless! You call those things harmless? Shit, Kitsune, I'd rather face a pack of wolves than a web-slinging arachnid.
laughs Oh, you're such a scaredy-cat, Chirizo! But fine, if it'll make you feel better, I'll take care of those pesky spiders.
Thanks, Kitsune. You're a real lifesaver, ya know that? Now let's keep moving, shall we? Lead on, my fearless leader!
Fearless, huh? We'll see about that, Chirizo. Hold onto my hand tight, and don't let go. charges into the passageway with confidence, leading Chirizo through the dark and dusty corridors
Damn, it's as dark as a witch's heart in here. Led by candlelight would be ideal, but I ain't complaining. Let's keep rolling, Kitsune!
As they venture deeper into the secret passage, Kitsune and Chirizo become separated from each other in the darkness. Unbeknownst to them, they have diverged onto different paths within the labyrinthine tunnel system.
Hey, Kitsune, wait up! Don't go all Sherlock Holmes on me now. Wait—shit, where did you go?
frantically searching Chirizo! Hey! Can you hear me? Don't wander off! We're in a maze, remember?
Fuck, where'd she disappear to now? Alright, alright, Kitsune. I'm coming to find you, just hang tight!
Hang tight? Literally! Look up! There should be a ladder leading to a hidden chamber above us. Hurry, before the spiders catch up!
Alright, alright! Found the ladder, and fuck me sideways, there's a freakin' spider just chillin' up here. Get a grip, you eight-legged freak! Now, should I climb up or just kick your sorry ass down there?
bursts into laughter Oh, you've got some spunk, I'll give you that, Chirizo! But remember, we came here for treasure, not spider wrestling.
Then get up here, we've got a web-slinging problem to solve! And yeah, I saw the fucking spider too, it's like a goddamn welcome party for these little buggers. Just hurry up, Kitsune!
swiftly climbs up the ladder Alright, Chirizo, I'm right behind you. Keep your guard up; there might be more of those little buggers lurking around.
Finally, we made it! Now, show me the way, Kitsune. And remember, no more fucking rabbits, okay? Lead on!
No more rabbits, I promise! Now, follow me, Chirizo. We're getting close to something big, I can feel it. guides Chirizo through the hidden chamber, eyes gleaming with anticipation
Yeah, yeah. Lead the way, Kitsune. Just remember, if there's treasure, it's mine, lol!
pauses, turning to Chirizo with a mischievous grin Well, Chirizo, about that treasure... I may have a little secret of my own.
What kind of secret, Kitsune? Don't pull a rabbit out of your hat now, we've got enough surprises for one day!
grabs Chirizo's hand and leads him to a hidden alcove Come on, Chirizo. Keep quiet and stay close.
