In Search of Rope #1: Asking Around

• Ask JohnPaul for some Sturdy Rope and then use it to return to the Dark Cave under Kitten District

You ask JohnPaul (or his robot) for some rope. He (or the robot) takes a moment to think.

“Sure, here you go! Come back soon, I’ll have fixed up the robot.”

JohnPaul is about to hand you the rope when he or his Kacheek malfunctions and starts doing the robot.  Joy.

You attempt to pull the rope out of the robot’s hand, but after a brief struggle, nothing comes out of it. Furiously you reach for your Bubket Scanner.

However, you realize what a mistake it would be and besides… You already broke one robot today.

Guess you’ll need to find another source for some Sturdy Rope.

• Go use the Bubket Scanner on the gargoyle statue

You might as well go see that statue and try the scanner on it now that the scanner is out. Of course, it should have been out the whole time, considering you equipped it as your main weapon. Oh well.

You walk back to the gargoyle statue. Upon arriving, you see the gargoyle statue is back to its original facing… if it had ever even moved in the first place.

Well… here goes nothing!

You press some buttons on your scanner and blast the statue while closing your eyes. Loud sounds follow and you could swear some shrieking was included…

You open your eyes.

There is no statue. Expecting to see statue pieces on the ground, you look down. . .

THERE ARE NONE.

AAAAAAH.

The statue is gone, but it’s not in pieces!

. . . . . . . .

Guess you weren’t imagining that moving thing anyhow. Heh heh.

You should probably get out of here. . . NOW.

• It’s hightime you get some armour. Go check the Bucket Army Headquarters for some

You wa – you run to the Bucket Army HQ to find some armour to protect yourself with. Entering the reception, you see someone sitting at the desk. You approach them.

Oh, it’s Pekka. Wait, what is *he* doing here?

“Hey there! You’re probably wondering why I’m here… Well, it’s a funny story. I found this silly letter from the Baron. It said I should meet him at the HQ here and to wait at the Reception. So, here I am. Oh… That wasn’t a funny story. Oh well. So, what brings you here?”

You explain what has been happening.

“Oh, I see. So the Baron stood you up. Then again, he didn’t… since you’re the one wandering around instead of trying to see if he’s at his own room or something. In any case, my letter was dated August 22nd, so he’s clearly still around Bucketon somewhere. I think. Well, that doesn’t matter right now. I’m good at waiting in front of desks for long periods of time. In fact, that was a job requirement.

• List people you would most likely be able to meet at this point since strangely you’ve only met Pekka and JohnPaul recently, everyone else has only been mentioned or has not been present in locations they should have been

You decide to take this chance to make a little list.

You list the names of JohnPaul and Pekka as certain and list Momo, the Baron and the Janitor as individuals you’d be likely to meet in places you expect.

• Go find and talk to Pekka

You already have.

• Attempt to tame a Lolrus

There are no Lolruses here.

• Fashion yourself a bucket from materials laying around

There doesn’t seem to be any materials here 😦

You ask Pekka for some.

“Sorry, I don’t have any. But there’s a little storage room near ISEEAMONKEY. Here, take the key!”

Pekka gives you Storage Room Key.
