Description
Winter, 331 of the Third Age
Featuring Khairo, Marrow, and Khatur
Previous: Cold Comfort
Khairo leads Marrow and Khatur into the mountains after their battle against the goblins, only to come face to face with a giant! Think fast, Khairo - you only have one chance to convince him not to smack you all with that club!
Side note: Giants in Elysium cap out at like 20 feet tall. This guy follows Studio Ghibli rules: this is how it feels or is perceived in the moment, not how it actually is. ;)
Gemstones Earned: 72
Items Found? Sun Plum (x1)
Random Event: None
Result: You desperately attempt to convince the giant to let you pass, honeying your words almost to the point of being cloying. The giant finds your sweetness nauseating, but sets his club down. You’re relieved… until a swipe of his hand knocks you into a snowdrift on the side of the mountain. Ouch!
“Shut up,” he says. “Are you stupid? Coming out here alone? Goblins have been taking unicorns into that mountain and they don’t come out… but here you are, of your own free will. Stupid.”
And with that, he stalks off into the mountains and is gone. You get up rather stiffly and shake the snow from your coat.
