Quoted By:
On the jogg back to Deddust Tooms, you do what anyone in your position would do: chop your own head off.
It doesn't hurt as much as you'd expect, using <span class="mu-b">Daggy</span>. You just need to bit on something and do it in one go so your neck doesn't grow back.
It takes about a minute for you to grow all back from a head.
Youre nakey and unarmed, of course; all your stuff is on your old body.
The garland of Trinkkittz has also let loose its grip on your old body. So the curse is released on death eh?
Nope: the moment you touch it, it sticks to your hand again, maintaining a fastened contact to your body at all times, as before.
You suppose it could help you get free of cursed items, in a pinch.
You're not sure you'll grow back from your headless body if you lose even your head, but it's worth a shot you figger.
You dig a grave for it.

It's near moon-high when you reach the Tooms again; there's a Werk detail getting corralled in. It doesn't look like a WranglerTeem: a mix of Gobbs n Oiks with hammers and swaggbaggz not pokies n nets, and one Shammy.
You trail the rabble in and watch: the Shammy says something to the Squiggle-block and it grinds along the floor, clearing the way. Huh.
The Gobbz n Oikz push past the Shammy and get to it: smashing all the stationary Tile Troops wots reappeared, swagging all their armor and weapons as undamaged as they can, and trooping orf. They're done in under a Time: the farsta they finish here, the more easy-time they get outside.
The Oiks gamble among themselves, and leave four of their number behind to keep watch. Only one has a whistle; you gibb them all as quiet and tidily as you can, starting with that one.
Then you start on the maze, making towards the middle from a wrong route. As before, you set off every Squiggled doorway in the maze. Can't do much about the bloody mess you leave behind you except hope the Repps that come stick to the True Route you gave them.
When you have triggered your way nearly to the middle, you stabb holes at the foot of some walls, wedge BOOMcandles innem, and rig up a couple lemon detonators.
Two hollow wooden pegs go into each lemon, with two copper nails resting in the hollows; copper wires run from the nails to the BOOMcandles. To detonate, slam both nails in at once.
Then you get Moar Oww out. He's still rekt from eating a heap of rigged zappies to the face.
"<span class="mu-r">Finna put yer here. When the last one of the mobb come through, or if part of them get fru but start to chikkin, yer skweez va nailz innada liminz here. Gaddit.</span>"
At another opening into the middle, you have a cookpot piled with poison needles and dry wood, a box of matches, and a bottle of Delectable. The moment they're in here you're lighting this up, hit them with some poison smog.
°°°
It's a long wait. The missing Oik watch is replaced with others.
Your trail of blood n giblets cakes black in the meantime.
