[hlvraip]

“Fish things”? Sounds like a normal Wednesday to me.

yeah

[hlvraip]

idk if benrey’s bad, necessarily. he did say you guys were the first humans he’d interacted with, he probably just doesn’t know a lot of things. like how apologies work or human physiology

When you say it that way, it makes sense... 

I’m still upset.

i am right here bro

[hlvraip]

So, now that we have a new mission—What comes next?

Good question. I say we focus on going towards Xen and keep an eye out for anything weird on the way. And, uh... Find out who that progeny is.

[hlvraip]

 or something

[hlvraip]

So Benrey is bad??? -🎶

I.. guess?  

What? Why?

I don’t know! They just - I don’t know?

I don’t believe you.

hey guys whats up

[hlvraip]

Coomer’s calling it a side quest. But I feel as though ignoring it wouldn’t be best, who knows what that man do. He seemed very scary after all, counting as the fact he stopped time.

Yeah, yeah.. I’m sure we’ll figure it out on the way.

[hlvraip]

we can gather loot and experience points from good and fun sidequests! -🍄👒

What are you guys FUCKING talking about?

I DON’T KNOW!

[hlvraip]

Alright, new mission: Protect the sea and Mr. Whatever-his-name-was’ kid (whoever that might be). Should be easy enough. -🎶

Yeah... Easy enough.

Gordon, if we ignore the side-quest, then we’ll make it to the final level in 45 minutes!

What?

Hello, Gordon!

[hlvraip]

hey mod do you happen to have an updated benny ref? i wanna draw him 👀

i manifested this just for you! /hj. heres an updated benrey reference :-]

[hlvraip]

At least Tommy sorta believes you, Gordon

Barely! I b-barely believe him, 

[hlvraip]

Everyone buckle up, cause what the Captain experienced might knock your socks off. -🎶

And - and there was this guy! This guy, he was like - all transparent and shit! Like a ghost - and his ghost ship and -- it was all like, a ghost, I - think the flying dutchman? or something?

The Flying Dutchman (Dutch: De Vliegende Hollander) is a legendary ghost ship which was said to never be able to make port, doomed to sail the oceans forever. The myth is likely to have ori

Gordon, ghosts aren’t real!

Yeah, Mr - Captain! Ghosts aren’t - aren’t real, I think! I always read about them - in stories.

And even if you - you did see a ghost, the flying Dutchman was made up!! Maybe you saw something else?

I’m willing to give you the benefit of - of the doubt.

[hlvraip]

Well....on the good news, if you survive this, you will have an amazing story to tell!

Yeah - it sure is a - a story.

The ship disappears in a flash, and the sky rolls back to a shining blue. Gordon is left standing there, blinking as a bead of sweat drips down his face.

Ah! Hello, Gordon!

AH

Oh. It’s you. Sorry, sorry - I, uh,-

I’ve quite the story to tell you.

Yeah, Captain Freeman - why were you just - just standing there?..

[hlvraip]

Yeah uh - do you have like, a child? A kid?

That is... none of your business...

Either way.. this, is where I get off.

Good luck. Captain Freeman...

[hlvraip]

“Protect what’s important” that means Gordon’s friends and the ship, right?

No.

I am merely talking about the sea and my progeny.

[hlvraip]

Are the others seeing this? Or is it just Gordon?

Gordon turns to survey the ship. Everyone else seems to be frozen.

I think it’s just me, bud.
