It's probably abundantly clear, but I feel obligated to make a formal announcement. I've kind of given up on this thing. while there are several reasons for this, the biggest is that I don't really feel like doing this anymore. Yes this is lazy on my part, but I really didn't expect to get much further than 20 turns to begin with.

I know it's kind of a dick move of me to quit when everyone is finally getting away from the mountain, but I think I should quit while I'm ahead.

Really all I wanted was to introduce RtD to new people. hopefully you guys will look for more RtDs if you liked this or even make one of your own! I'd really like to play one for a change.

All that said, I've got the next turn half done, and I plan to finish it with an anticlimactic turn indistinguishable from any other.

PLAYER ACTIONS

(6) you move in the opposite direction and get a ways away, but in your panic, you accidentally put too much weight on your broken ankle and you feel a sharp pain and hear a bone chilling crunch and have to take a breather. Though your broken ankle prevented you from really putting distance between you and the giant, the tremors from its steps are faint beneath your one good foot.


(3) you just manage to stick behind her, getting smacked in face with every branch she moves out of the way. (2) a particularly hefty smack results in a busted lip, but otherwise you’re fine.


(3) despite your wriggling, your bonds stay firm.


(6)The slope is easily a hundred feet high, but luckily for you, enough slopes dot the slope that it’s easy for you to just slide from one to the next, and you soon find yourself at the bottom of the slope, patting all the dust off your person. But then you feel something wiggling around inside your shirt! something must have slipped inside while you were sliding down the slope!

(5) you manage to learn a bit about climbing, namely that it’s just falling in reverse.


(6) with your incredible upper body strength, you grab fistfulls of dirt and tree roots, pulling yourself further up the giant’s back while your broken legs dangle uselessly below you. all that pulling is bad for your arms, though so you have a rest on its broad shoulders


(6) One pixie breaks away from the others, full of youth and an adventurous spirit. she's never actually been away from the hive, but she tells you pixies tell such vivid stories that she probably knows everything about the snowy expanse. She says she could lead you to an old burial crypt where the gold is piled to the cieling!


(1) All the pixies float in awkward silence after your outburst. well, it sounds like awkward silence. they're so tiny they could be speaking in regular tones and you wouldn't be able to hear them. you hope they're not talking about you.

ENEMY ACTIONS

Eventually, the bandits emerge from the rowdy backstreets onto the rowdy Main Street. People are fighting everywhere. you see at least three standoffs at sunset, which is wierd because the sun already set like 30 minutes ago. The bar is roaring with people while the sherrif's department and bank are thoroughly vandilized and the latter is currently getting robbed.
they

They drop Karkino off unceremoniously in the middle of the street, not untying him, then ride away.

ALLIED AND UNAFFILIATED ACTIONS

(5) the frost pixies gossip about Jess, making rumors that spiral out of control, painting her as a three-headed fire demon that eats tree children and flies as a rocket shuttle. Or that she's gay. the rumors are a bit unclear.

TIME AND WEATHER
A full moon is rising, and it's getting dark. The sky is clear.
