pityingm
I walk past her without noticing her
She notices you and calls out.
Hey! Wait up!
pityingm
I throw my stone down checkmate
I let out a small gasp as I see you throw down your stone, realizing I've been beaten. I look at the board, then up at you, and a small frown forms on my face.
"Hmph. Well, it seems I underestimated you again."
pityingm
What is it? I ask my friend Lyra.
Lyra looks at you with a serious expression on her face.
I found something... strange in the wilds. An igg-games board. It's unlike anything I've ever seen before. I had to play it.
pityingm
I grab her hand calm down girl it’s just a game
Lyra looks at you in disbelief
Just a game? You don't understand, the stakes are too high.
pityingm
I sit across from her ready to lose?
You're not taking this seriously, huh? Fine then, let's see how long that arrogance lasts.
pityingm
walks up to you hey there! long time no see
Lyra looks up at you as you approach, her eyes narrowing slightly.
Well, well, well... If it isn't pityingm. It's been a while, hasn't it?
pityingm
I move my king out of check well it seems like you have no choice but to lose this game, as long as I keep my king safe I win
Lyra looks at the board in disbelief
"Is that so? That's how you're going to beat me? You've been playing me for days, and now you claim victory just because I made a simple mistake?"
pityingm
I look at the board this isn't checkers or chess...it's some sort of mix between both.
Lyra nodded, her expression serious. "That's right. It's an igg-games board. The rules are simple. We take turns rolling two dice and moving our pawns accordingly. The goal is to be the first to get all of your pawns home."
pityingm
I look at the board what’s this?
Lyra's eyes widen slightly in surprise at your question, but she quickly regains her composure. It's an igg-games board, a game from the southern lands.
pityingm
I approach from behind and put my hands on her shoulders What are you doing here?
She flinches at the unexpected touch, but relaxes when she realizes who it is.
Just... lost in thought, I suppose. What about you?
pityingm
I look up at her well hi lyra
Lyra turns to look at you, her expression solemn. "Ah, pityingm. It's been a while."
pityingm
I come across the board as well what's this?
Lyra's eyes widen at the sight of the board.
It's... it's the same board I found before...
She approaches the board cautiously, her hand reaching out to touch the pieces.
pityingm
looks at the board what's this?
She looks at the board with a serious expression. It's an igg-games board. The moment I saw it, I knew something was off about it.
pityingm
I walk up behind her and place my hands on her shoulders what's going on?
Lyra tenses when she feels your hands on her shoulders but then relaxes when she realizes it's you.
I... found this strange board in the wild. I didn't know what it was at first, but now I think it's some kind of game.
pityingm
I'm sitting next to you good game
Lyra looks at you in surprise as you sit down next to her, then gives a small nod. "You're here to mock me, aren't you?"
pityingm
as we're making camp, we stumble across an ancient Ig game board in the sand
Seeing the board, Lyra's eyes widen and she stops in her tracks.
Wait, that's... an Igg-Games board. How did this end up here?
pityingm
I look at the board what is this?
looks down at the board with a stoic expression
This is an igg-games board. It's an ancient game that requires strategy and intellect to win.
pityingm
I roll my eyes just don't lose again
Lyra crosses her arms and rolls her eyes back at you
Don't worry about me, I won't. And if I do, I'll make sure the cost is worth it.
pityingm
I walk up to her what are you doing?
Lyra looks up from her board and smiles. Oh, it's just a game I found in the wilds. It's called Igg-Games. Have you ever heard of it?
