At this point, even if you don’t want to, you have to go. You’re committed even to your bad ideas. You take a deep breath before diving inside…
The foul smell, the spaced-out wall lamps on the ceiling, the creeping darkness, the mossy stone walkways, it’s like you never left. You wonder if Vera finds this place cozy. It’d be funny if you find that bike again, but you doubt it.
The unexpected perk of following someone through the sewers is that you can hear the noise of whom you’re pursuing! So, instead of delving into nauseating thoughts about the odor, you press forward in haste. It doesn’t take long to shorten the distance as these two aren’t used to running through this kind of place, and you weren’t that far back.
“I’m here!” You exclaim to your Sewer Dragon!
“She’s not far...” Suan De informs.
“Wrong!!! The gap between us is <span class="mu-i">unsurmountable</span>!!! Do <span class="mu-s">not</span> even TRY!” The Sewer Trash Demon tauntingly remarks.
“Obnoxious.” Suan De wants to exorcize this ghost no matter what.
The chase continues. It feels like whenever you’re gaining advantage on the Sewer Trash Monster, she scurries faster and faster away to gain an advantage like a scripted video game event. Before you can get petty enough to rush to break the sequence, you all reach a dead end. Well, not a dead end, but there’s a stuck iron door with a strange symbol on it. No matter how much she kicks it, the door doesn’t budge.
“It’s STUCK!!!” The angry specter shouts in frustration. “They are RIGHT HERE!!!”
“Fucking finally…” You’re glad this chase is over. There’s no way for her to run. Except for past you and up the ladder on the wall, but – you know – she needs to go <span class="mu-i">past</span> you first.
“I have to open it!” The trash monster drills two holes for her arms to grab the wheel-esque doorknob.
“Don’t do anything funny.” Suan De warns the specter.
“So this is how it's going to be…” Dumpster Legs has no other option but to confront her pursuers.
“Get in the jar now.” Suan De pulls the trapping mechanic.
“A jar? You want me inside a simple jar? You want me to leave this perfectly usable body with <span class="mu-i">high quality</span> armor for a <span class="mu-s">JAR</span>?!” The specter is offended at the thought. “Disrespectful and churlish!”
“And non-negotiable.” Suan De doesn’t care about the ghost’s feelings.
“Then you leave me no choice but to use my <span class="mu-i">ultimate technique</span>… hm…” Dumpster Legs has a plan.
You have to be smart to end this interaction without anyone getting hurt.
