The Cure
Reverse the Curse
Darkovia Forest > The Cure
<<You and Chico with bandages wrapped on its head and right ear carrying a wooden staff runs from the left towards the right and stop less than midway along a moonlight illuminated path in Darkovia's leafless spider web strung forest>>
Chico: I hate traveling at night. Did I tell you that already?
<<You>>: Yeeees, Chico. Many, many... many times. Darkovia seems to be forever embraced in eternal darkness.
Chico: Something up ahead... We might be nearing The Cure, <<You>>! We'll get rid of your affliction soon enough!
<<Three shadows of bat winged creatures flies in from the right to the left approaching You>>
Battle: Evil Eye (3)
Full Heal
<<Chico runs from the left towards the right and stop less than midway along the path>>
<<You>>: ...and you were worried that a few flying eyeballs could pose a threat to me!
Chico: Oh no no, don't be silly. Chico was worried that a few flying eyeballs could pose a threat to HIM.
<<Black clouds on the left and right of the moon converge, blocking the moon and its light darkening the forest>>
Chico: Um...did this place actually just get DARKER or are my eyes playing tricks on me?
<<You>>: It has become darker. Seems even the faintest moonlight struggles to penetrate the evil surrounding this forest.
Chico: What on Lore could actually make Darkovia even darker than it already is??!
<<A flaming red left and orange right wing appear on the right in front of You and Chico, the creature is a black silhouette until it reveals itself to be an Infernal Undead Moglin>>
<<You>>: Probably not what you had in mind.
Battle: Infernal Undead Moglin (2)
Full Heal
<<Chico runs from the left towards the right and stop less than midway along the path>>
Chico: *shivers*Promise me that you won't let some necromancer make me undead. I can't bear the thought of an afterlife being constantly owned by heavily armed warriors.
<<You>>: Fret not, Chico! Now let's hurry up before more trouble finds us!
<<You and Chico runs from the left towards the right in a red rocky passageway illuminated by classic torches and stop in front of a three way path, skulls and a bone rest on two paths.
Chico: Well for a cave it is quite well lit, a nice change from that creepy forest. It's actually pretty warm in here compared to the outside too.
<<You>>: Hmmm, so far all the rumors are true. There IS a cave out here, in the middle of Darkovia...
Chico: Yeah, like that sage told us, the cave is made of "rock as red as blood"!
<<You>>: NOW the question is...which way do we go to find this fabled "cure"?
Red arrows are animated moving in the direction they point to Western Passage on the left, Eastern Passage on the right and Southern Passage downwards, click to continue.
<<You and Chico runs from the left towards the right along a red rocky passageway with green cracks on the walls illuminated by a classic torch and stop less than midway, skulls and bone are on the ground.
Western Passage
Chico: This seems to be the wrong way...
<<A ShadowSlayer walks in from the right towards the left, stops and raises its sword at You and Chico>>
Slayer Grove: Stop right there, foul creature! It is time to answer for all your evil deeds!
Fight!
Two Battles: ShadowSlayer
Full Heal
Eastern Passage
Chico: Nothing seems to be this way.
<<A NightHunter walks in from the right towards the left, stops and raises its sword at You and Chico>>
Hunter Nolt: Well well well... your hide will make a fine addition to my collection!
Fight
Two Battles: NightHunter
Full Heal
Southern Passage
Chico: Hm, looks like a bad choice...
<<A ShadowSlayer walks in from the right towards the left, stops and raises its sword at You and Chico>>
Slayer Stasia: You go no further! You have breathed your final breath, wretched creature of the night!
Fight!
Two Battles: ShadowSlayer
Full Heal
Chico: I wonder if there really ISN'T a cure for vampirism and lycanthropy?
Chico: So strange, according to that sage The Cure is here. I guess you're right, <<You>>. Let's just leave now before another Shadow Slayer tries to put a silver stake in you.
<<The cave shakes violently>>
Chico: What in the gunglerum was tha-
<<A fissure appears on ground horizontally, green light flashes for a moment, a sinistral fault is in motion, it transitions into a reverse fault, then the hanging wall slides down revealing a pool of green bubbling sludge>>
<<You>>: That looks vile, I am NOT swimming in some... green sludge!
Chico: Good news, <<You>>! According to the legends, to cure yourself you only need to drink some of that...green sludge.
Green Sludge: is it safe?
GENERAL SURGEON'S WARNING: Drinking random green sludge bubbling from the ground may be hazardous to your health... obviously.
(2) Horrifying coloration of the hair may be temporary, but the stench will last years. Any claims made by the manufacturer that this product cures Lycanthrophy and/or Vampirism have not been evaluated by the FDA. This product is not intended to diagnose, cure or even prevent any disease.
(3) Whatever you do, never wash your Moglin with this sludge.
Drink the green sludge
<<You>>: Ahhhhh! I'm feeling more like myself! Oddly enough it doesn't taste half bad... as far as green sludge goes.
I'm not drinking green sludge!
<<You>>: I'm not going anywhere NEAR that gak! I'll just live with my affliction for now.
<<Chico walks up to the edge of the cliff and looks down at the green bubbling sludge>>
Chico: Holy Noseflicker speckles! This stuff is gross...
<<Chico dips the end of its staff into the sludge and waves it around>>
<<You>>: Chico, don't be playing in it! We read the warning. Remember the warning? What if you fall in? This stuff is bad news for Moglins.
<<Chico pulls up its staff with sludge residue on it and turns to face You>>
Chico: Y'know <<You>>, I like you, but you're crazy. Chico is as sure-footed as a Neko. Have I ever told you of the time I-
<<The cave shakes for a moment, Chico with shrunken pupils waves its arms rapidly attempting to regain balance and falls into the sludge with a small splash>>
<<You>>: Chicooooooooooo!
Chico: Chico is ok! This stuff is pretty warm, feels nice. Silly warnin- Hey... why are my feet getting so big! Uh-oh...
CHICO!!!
Battle: Red Moglinster
Full Heal
<<Chico faces You on the left, its staff is without sludge residue>>
Chico: Thank you, <<You>>! Chico would never be able to find shoes to fit. You are cured so let's get outta here! I hate scary underground caves with mutating sludge. Did I say that already?
<<You>>: I'm not sure it's any less dangerous than the cursed forest of Darkovia we have to journey back through.
Chico: ...
Play again!
Guardian Tower!
