Thunder Mountain Talk is cheap Location: Travel Map » Travel South » Thunder Mountain In search of the most powerful Energy equipment around, you decide to ask for help from the mightiest Energy creature around: Krenos the Prime Energy Dragon! With much, much, MUCH flattery, Krenos eventually leads you to his ancestor's homeland.... «Scene: Thunder Mountain. A cloud formed in the shape of a dragon on the mountains can be seen. Krenos and you enter at the foot of the mountain.» «You»: We're here! Krenos: Indeed! Can you feel it, «You»? The Energy magic of my ancestor's empire? Truly, it is a marvel to feel, to smell, to taste... mmmm.... «You»: Nope, I'm-- *ahem* My apologies, but I cannot. My human senses are not as highly developed as yours, oh great dragon Krenos. Krenos: No? How dreadful! Living through life without experiencing such joys? «You»: Woe and alas! How inadequate my senses are! «You»: Why, the only way I could feel this is if I could get some kind of physical form of this power in my hands! Krenos: Yes... a treasure forged on Thunder Mountain? Much like how the Energy Lord wrought the Prime Energy Orb, my family's great treasure, here? «You»: Does such a treasure exist? Krenos: As we departed hastily, we left many treasures behind. Surely the current lord -- whoever it may be -- would not reign without proper armaments. «You»: Zounds! In the name of your ancestors, let us ascend the mountain and recover them! Krenos: Oho, certainly! Yes! Le-- hmm... "in the name of my ancestors", you say? Hmm... Yes, yes. Yes! Krenos: «You», you shall ascend Thunder Mountain alone! «You»: What the-- *ahem* «You»: Pardon, oh mighty Krenos? Surely the experience of your family's empire is something you want to share, so that I may tell of your glory to all I encounter? Krenos: Indeed. But from here, you must go alone. Krenos: After the Energy Lord forged the Energy Orb, The Eminent Emporor of Electricity Krenos the First had to fight off contenders to claim it for himself. For my family. Krenos: He wearied a thousand trials and defeated a thousand contenders to prove himself worthy of our treasure, with his indominable spirit his only companion. Krenos: Now, «You», it is your turn to do the same! If you wish the power of Thunder Mountain, then you must relive his journey, and claim Thunder Mountain by yourself! «You» (Thought): *sigh* I pushed it too far. He's not going to be any more help. «You»: Yes, great Krenos! Whoever sits atop Thunder Mountain will fall before my might! Krenos: Oho, that's the spirit! I wish you the best of luck, although I am certain that you do not need it. May you stay grounded against your enemies. «Krenos leaves the scene.» Begin the Quest of Thunder Mountain! - Continue dialogue Go Home «Scene: Initiating the climb up the Mountains» «You»: Well, that went better than expected. I didn't expect him to just hand over the loot, but being dropped off at its doorstep is better than nothing. «You»: *ahem* Hello, peoples of Thunder Mountain! I come requesting your services! I can trade, or-- «Suddenly, a flock of voices in the distance can be heard simultaneously.» ???: Intruder? Intruder! ???: Sound the alarm! ???: Rally the defences! We shall not fall! ?!?! «You»: ... I think that went well.

Hello kitties! «The kittens turn around and simultaneously say:» Thunder Cat: The invader! Thunder Cat: Hssssss! Thunder Cat: Inform Lord Svadilfari! «You»: Oh, you can talk? I-- Thunder Cat: ATTACK!

Your invasion of Lord Svadilfari's realm will stop now! Defend yourself, for your face Valsormir of Plasma! «You»: WAIT! I'm not "invading"; I'm just looking for some new equipment! «You»: I've already had to deal with one senile dragon who wouldn't listen to me, so I'd much rather trade or-- Valsormir: Ha! You think I believe that? My lord may have only just conquered the mountain, but there's already been DOZENS of attempts at his life! YOU are no different! Valsormir: You want control over the primal power of Thunder Mountain, just like all those assassins! *headdesk* «You attempt to clarify, but get interrupted by Valsormir...» «You»: No you're not-- Valsormir: --going to let you get away with this!

Most folks just run 'til they're out of the blast radius. «You»: I AM NOT HERE TO INVADE. I AM LOOKING FOR NEW EQUIPMENT. I HAVE MONEY AND AM WILLING TO TRADE AND/OR PAY FOR IT. "Scruffy": Quit yer shoutin'! I may be old, but I can hear ya just fine. «You»: Oh. *whew* Sorry, but everyone here thinks I'm some kind of "invader". "Scruffy": Haa. Yeup, ever since those dragons left, this place's politics've been about as stable as a thunderstorm. New Lord every year, or thereabouts. "Scruffy": People here are jumpier than me in the rain. This Lord here, he's not too bad. Not like ol' whats-his-name before him. «You»: So, uh, what's his deal? Lord Spalding or something? "Scruffy": Svadilfari? Ohh, he's just come in to power not too long ago. Killed the ol' guy in his sleep, and he's now afraid that someone'll do the same to him. Doesn't sleep much. "Scruffy": We wouldn't have this problem if one of my kids was in charge, I'll tell you what! Plenty o' sleep, and able to wake up at the drop of a pin! «You»: So, back on topic-- "Scruffy": You should've seen 'em when they were kittens! Bunch of rascals! Why, this one time, a few centuries back.... «You» (Thought): Ugh, Lorithia, he sounds just like Krenos. *sigh* This is going to take a while, isn't it? «The scene fades to black and Thunder Mountain 3 shop opens.» Continue! Go Home «As the scene fades back in... Oh look! "Scruffy" is just about done with his tale...» "Scruffy": ...replies, "Yeah, I'm positive!" Haahaahaahaa! «You»: Uh... haha? Haha? «You»: Hey, would you look at the time! I gotta get going if I'm going to reach Lord Scarface by dinner! "Scruffy": Oh? Sorry 'bout that. I keep forgettin' how you younguns are always running around. «You»: Yep. And while I've got you here, any chance that you could help me out? "Scruffy": Nahh. I'm too old for this adventurin' business. «You»: Are you sure? I could make it... VERY... worth your while. "Scruffy": Kid, I don't like your tone. I've got all I need to enjoy my old age; there's nothin' you can offer me that'll get me mixed up in your business again. "Scruffy": So, I'm guessin' that you don't want me to finish the story 'bout how I met m'wife Trjegul? «You»: No thanks. I got a mountain to "conquer~". "Scruffy": Then I wish you the best of luck, kid. «Leaving "Scruffy" behind and advancing your journey, you proceed further up the mountains.» «You»: *sigh* This is why I usually just beat up everything that comes across my path. Might as well try that now.... «You initiate a series of six stat rolls, targeting each unique stat (STR/DEX/INT/END/CHA/LUK).» Like a Rolling Stone There is a boulder here. There is a group of monsters below. Time for an impromptu physics lesson! Difficulty: 81 Stat Used: Strength «Succeed the roll: The rolling stone takes out half the monsters. (I guess you can get some satisfaction.) Time to deal with the rest!» [Skip first 2 BATTLES listed below] «Fail the roll: You can't get the stone to roll. I guess you can't always get what you want.» 2 BATTLES Full Heal [Grab Potion] 2 BATTLES Full Heal [Potion Bag] Running from Circles You trip a tripwire, and a Circle of Doom is about to blow!

«Toward the peak of Thunder Mountains, you confront Svadilfari, an Asgardian Steed.» Svadilfari: So. It has come to this. «Short pause» Svadilfari: Only silence? «You»: Riiiiight. I've tried talking to everyone today, and all I've gained is a headache. «You»: I was more waiting for you to do your big speech, and then we'd fight it out. Svadilfari: Hahaha... you are well-versed in the ways of Thunder Mountain. Svadilfari: Just as when I ascended to this throne, when I defeated the dynamancer. DIE HUMAN! !!!«Svadilfari stands before you, defeated.» Svadilfari: I... am beaten. My kingdom has fallen... to a human? A mere mortal? «You»: Whoa there. You had your chance for a speech before. I get one now. Svadilfari: *sigh* Yes, my new master. «You»: Okay. I am here to purchase new Energy equipment. I was told that you have some. «You»: You give me the equipment, and I pay for it. Then I'll be on my way, and you go back to... whatever you were doing before I got here. Svadilfari: ... Svadilfari: What? Svadilfari: What madness is this? The rulership of Thunder Mountain is a prized treasure, left by Krenos the First.... «You»: Look, I have a day job protecting Battleon. I can barely keep my estate cleared, so I doubt that I can reign over a whole mountain. You can keep it. Svadilfari: You... you have... I... this is.... Svadilfari: No, you can't. You just can't. That's not proper procedure. That... that just doesn't happen. It... you... «You»: So, can I get my stuff? I'll offer you a fair price. Svadilfari: And then you take over? «You»: No, then I go off and save Battleon again. Seriously? No one's come to trade before? Svadilfari: Well... no.... Svadilfari: So... my reign continues? «If you are below level 150...» «You»: Totally. Svadilfari: Ah. Well then... «Thunder Mountain 4 shop opens.» - Continue
- Go home
«You»: Pleasure doing business with you! Svadilfari: I... yes. Now, if you'll pardon me, I'd rather forget that this just happened. «You»: Sure. See ya! «You leave the scene. Svadilfari turns right.» Svadilfari: Now, to plan what I tell the masses. I, with my vast intelligence, traded with him rather than being defeated in combat-- «A mysterious voice echos from the distance...» ???: --and then I arrive and proceed to claim the crown for myself? «Krenos enters the scene. Svadilfari turns left and faces Krenos.» Krenos: No, that will not do. I never leave my prey in such good condition. Should you wish to alter your story, then there must be more blood, rended flesh, and broken bones. Svadilfari: *gulp* «If you are level 150+...» «A mysterious voice echos from the distance...» ???: No. «Krenos enters the scene and Svadilfari retreats!» «You»: Krenos?!?! Krenos: As you decline, I claim Thunder Mountain in my name! «You»: Wait... waitwait... was this your plan all along? You were using me! Krenos: Much as you tried to use me to acquire MY powerful equipment? «You»: Hey! That's completely different! Krenos: *rolls eyes* Really? How so? «You»: I need this equipment to defend Battleon! I'm doing this for the greater good, not-- Krenos: --unlike me? I am doing this for my family! As we grow, we need to defend ourselves too. We need a stable, powerful homeland. (Unlike that useless castle. *grumbles*) Krenos: You came here for friends and family. I did the same. «You»: ... Krenos: Continuing... in exchange for your "service", I propose a deal. My new kingdom needs a new champion. And whatever equipment this plebeian could offer you, I can enhance it. «You»: Hold the phone, you still haven't answered for tricking me! Krenos: Ahh, still angered by that? Then: should you be able to "defeat" me in "combat", I shall grant your new equipment power proper of a kingdom's champion. Krenos: You achieve catharsis, and I can properly deem that you are worthy of my power. What say you? - Yeah!
1 BATTLE: Krenos (150) Krenos: Oho! Much as I'd expect from a champion! You feel better, I assume? «You»: Oh yeah. That felt VERY good. Krenos: Excellent. Now, let me properly enchant that equipment of yours.... «Thunder Mountain 5 shop opens.» Krenos: Go forth, my champion, and spread the word! Krenos now rules over Thunder Mountain! - Nope. Next time...
Krenos: A pity; you would make a fine champion. Krenos: I suppose that you still deserve the ignoble arms of that horse.... «Thunder Mountain 4 shop opens.»
