at this point you ought to know it's spoilers for the game so i won't mark the entire article as a spoiler from now on

I started the day by realizing i'm a fucking dumbass and skipped an area which held the missing track piece....

With that idiocy on my part out of the way, we took the minecarf across the lake and headed towards the large castle, where we will find basil... we think (and hope)

As the minecart halted to a stop (is that how you phrase it?) we took a picnic break where Mari mentioned a library that due to being unmaintained, sunk into the ground under the forest. Her source? The shadows of the forest.

		
			Is it the same shadows as last time?
		
	

Moving forward we...
my, that's a concerning amount of sprout mole bodies...

OH MY GOD IT'S A GIANT CETIPEDE OF SPROUTS

It has been dealt with swiftly. :)

After that minor nightmare, we finally reached the SPROUT VILLAGE! :0

"You must have made great sacrifices to get these [front row tickets"
uh, yeah, totally... (let's put the show on standby for now)

I got a carepackage delivery to do!
I sure hope i don't get shot in the head like last time... :/

walking around i found...
- A mole who drew the "Cool S"!
- Tofu Trivia
"Silken Tofu is creamy and can be used for baking, dressings, sauces, smoothies and desserts"
- A joke
- A Rake (From a Fall Sprout)

Hey that flower reminds me of... n-nevermind... >_>

OK COME ON THAT'S LITERALLY THE SAME COLOR PALETTE

After i wander around looking for those sno-cones
i decide to deliver the care package and go start the show

Sweetheart is... honestly overrated... :L
(also i may or may not have killed the grandfather sprout (i blame basil))

Sproutmoles are 3ft tall?
they look shorter than that...
(then again that might also be counting their "Stalk"

My money's on contestant 2
Thankfully it wasn't on 3 as he fucking died lol

Anyways, there was a blackout due to Zeus'(?) fury on 3, and now we had to fix it... As always...
We plugged the sucker back in and worked out for a while

After we got back, they needed fresh mea- I mean a new bachelor and thus, Hero stepped up...
For someone with as much charisma as him you'd expect him to be used to a spotlight... literally and figuratively...

Oh god it's sweetheart

The questions went as follows:

- Will you be her slave?

1: sure ig
he was too short and was sent to the DUNGEON

2: yes please don't send me to the dungeon
He was too ugly, thus he fled
*Tried to

Hero played it smart and said no.

Hero has discovered something i call "Over-rolling your skill checks" and

Ok i'm fucking tired of this dumb bit

After Hero reject her she retaliates the team...
and we're in the dungeon.

Rosa's almost half a bitch Sweetheart is.
(Jokes on her it'll only make kicking her ass easier)

Well we better eat the moss to survi-
oh they left the door unlocked.

We found Mari again!!

Oh for fucks' sake...

[I]

After a bit of dungeon diving, we made it out...
Into sweetheart's castle...

After disguising ourselves as a sprout mole using the pieces of that sprout centipede from earlier, we made our way around the castle

[J]

After an unfortunate accident (and a subsequent rewind) I baked a cake! :D

SIR MAXIMUS HAS CHALLENGED US TO A DUEL!

and fucking died

I then sorted a guest issue BY SENTENCING THEM TO THEIR DOOM (in the dungeon)

[K]
{7 keys remain}

Oh look a hole, might as well jump in.

		
			Is this his room?
These photos...
they're all of her...
and they're all missing from his book
the one he gave me...
		
	

... o_o
well that was weird...

What's weirder is that i got ramen from a toilet...
ew

oh?
i seem to have found a secret... passage...?
Come back when she finds a new home.

After destroying a statue...

SIR MAXIMUS II CHALLENGES US TO A DUEL!!

and promptly dies like his father...

then shortly after getting lost on where to go i encounter Pluto in the wild

I haven't been mentioning every pearl i pick up but gawdamn i have 6 now...

Anyway, I perfectly kept the choir awake on my second attempt (thankfully no rewinds needed)

Pearl 7...

I danced with a mole with no partner (which apparently healed everyone???)

Let me guess, maximus III will challenge us now, won't he?
and would you look at that i called it

MAXIMUS THE III CHALLENGES US TO A DUEL!!!

Dude was lucky he died on the same turn the team meter was filled...

And after destroying a whole lineage, we finally have access to the courtyard

We had a little tea break :)

I activated the statue and answered wrong.
ow.

One mushroom and a training montage later, OMORI CAN OPEN BULBS!

After a trap run-in, KEL HAS LEARNED HOW TO AIM!

Shortly after, i ran into a password keeper, 1/4
All it took was one (1) tofu for a bribe and i got their word, "Sweet"

After going down a hatch and opening a shortcut we re-found Mari in the dungeon! Kel's a baby and won't eat pickles

After that we found guard number 3 who gave the word "Filled" on a pinky swear

Next, i found numero Dos (number two) and after a relatively easy psychic mind read i got the word: Jelly

we found a secret stash of Rare Bears and items...
and seeing as we were vastly outnumbered we-

OPENED THE FLOOD GATES, RAN IN AND KICKED THEIR ASSES AND STOLE ALL THEIR SHIT

Kel got a tail upgrade (tails increase speed, as he is the Speed Demon of the group)

Finally, we reached number FOUR!!!!
and he just spilled it as "Donut" cause they were hungry...

Full Password: Sweet Jelly Filled Donut

After a quick visit to Mari and the Dungeon'd Smuggler to sell my 7 pearls and resupply from that Bloody Rare Bear Brawl we headed to submit the password... It worked!

ANOTHER FUCKING PEARL

Oh hey it's a teddy bea-
OH FOR THE LOVE OF THE DREAM MOTHER IT'S ANOTHER RARE BEAR

Oh joy there's the smuggler next to a jar of Full Healing pickles. Ah, even a sole Picnic basket to save!! I sure hope nothing sinister is brewing. :)

We made it out!
but we seem to have walked back into the stage room with a new event going on... A wedding!
After 42 seasons Sweetheart is finally getting married?!
she's getting married to...

HERSELF!?!?!

(It's not the asexual part, it's the fact she didn't come to this conclusion sooner... -_-)

And so sweetheart married hersel-
OH GOD DAMN IT AUBREY

Skipping the play-by-play...

SWEETHEART HAS CHALLENGED A FIGHT!!

Using the power of (sad) poetry, we kick her ass while she barely dents our health with sadness' DEF up along with her emotional disadvantage, i didn't even need the ALL OUT ATTACK

Anyways Spaceboy comes in clutch and marries Sweetheart???

they kiss and go on a space honeymoon...
right after Sweetheart blows a fucking hole in the... stage...

OUR TEAM'S BOND HAS BECOME STRONGER!

Anyways we shou...ld.... leave....
Oh no.

b-Before we check out the hole, I decided i wanted to go check on Secret Hall thing, but along the way i meet ROCOCO! the up-and-coming artist!

Long backstory short...
they fell from space, met sweetheart fell in love, got betrayed, became a free-lance artist.

Anyway after commissioning less that a quarter of my money on hand, i go check to see what that guy(?) was on about the castle...

well apparently not yet because she apparently "hasn't found her new home yet" so i ran here for nothing >:/

well, no where else to go...
But down...

it took what felt like forever to hit the bottom, the others were nowhere to be found...

		
			Mari was right.
The archive was down here all along...

White egret orchid...
"My thoughts of you will follow you into your dreams."
what an odd promise...

A memory he'll remember forever.
although the names are a bit fuzzy,
it makes sense why it's a fond memory

Another one:
[???] stained the carpet and ran,
a specific moment but pretty normal.

a memory about a "hard" day at work,
for most of them in reality,
Pretty average, but it's about the Tree House.
It's quite special, for that...

was that her? walking down...?

A memory of school.
Lucky [?] got a window seat...
They got to CREATE their own worlds
when they were bored in class...
This one they were alerted by [???] due to pizza day.

it's the lake, the special lake...
Is this the memory?
the brothers [???] and [????] take turns
using the statue as a diving board...
[?] is persuaded to join, when...
[S] falls

That's it, but is that all it has?

[L]
{6 keys left}

The last memory of major interest
is one of a saturday morning.
but [?] knows he can't stay for the last hour
due to his violin lessons...
At least it's not what breaks him...
*Not in this time line*

?
Something opened...?

!
it's... him...?

There's a piano.
it has the name *OMORI* on it...
This memory is the Origin of the Dreamer.

A basket and some fruits...
I know i'll have to be back here later...
Eating them i feel... better..

on the opposite side i see a hole.
I take a peek through it and see BASIL
but... something is off

{DON'T FORGET IT'S IN THE TOYBOX}
		
	

I find myself back in White space...
well, with no other options i decide i should...

{Two Days Left.}

I wake up to a knocking at my door.

I decide to play Blackjack to distract myself for now
I game over'd :(

I take a look in the mirror before i save and end the adventure for the day, as it has been 4 hours total since i started
