>>6187310It is hard to believe your eyes when the door swings open and an old grey-haired man appears at the door. He must be well over 50 years old, exhausted and dirty from living in the tower for who knows how long. His once-standard office worker suit is in tatters, and his eyeglasses have a crack in one of the lenses. The look of relief upon seeing a fellow human is intense, but fright soon takes over as he sees the Baphomets.
"It's okay sir. No one is going to hurt you. Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Lot. And these are my vassals."
You switch to the 'responsible and respectable young lady' voice and demeanour to calm the older man. He stoically tries to hold back tears of relief; it is awkward to see an adult ready to cry.
"Young lady, I've been stuck here for three days with the others. You are the first human since we've arrived here."
Entering the tower with him, you discover there are two other humans. One is a parcel delivery guy still in his uniform and about thirty years old and the other is a woman wearing flashy clothing as though coming home from her job at a bar.
When you ask about a cat, the humans of the tower lead you to Lady Kizaemon. She's in bad shape, a deep claw wound marks her side. A few more inches to the right and that wound would have gutted her. The carefully stitched up corpse in Yatagarasu's storage space comes to mind when you see the wounds.
"Ah, thou art here."
The weak but familiar accent of a TV samurai lady from the feline brings you to tears. The wounds are infected; you need to get her to the Doctor back in Camelot straight away.
"We found the talking cat when we had to sneak out and find water."
The delivery guy explains and softly pets the cat.
What will you do now?
>Go up to the top of the tower with one of the humans, learn how they go there and find that monster...>Order the Dowser and Bodyguard to take everyone back to the apprentices, you and Yatagarasu will go hunt down the monster...>Stay by your cat's side and hear her side of the story, maybe she discovered a weakness...>These mortals have Mana, you should try to harvest it.
