It will be still a hell of a surprise:@PLaci1982 The original girls apparently fled into a dragon's territory to escape a cannibal-rapist bandit gang. Yeeting their souls right out of their bodies probably seemed like a good idea at the time.
If they get their bodies back in a safe location, they'll probably be pleasantly surprised.
And there's a crazy-looking buff guy approaching us with an ugly crew cut.It will be still a hell of a surprise:
"We escaped from both the cannibal-rapist bandits and the dragon!
Where are we now?
At the northern edge of the Continent of the Night...."
Literally Chekhov's Gun in human form!Can’t help but notice that serial killer guy is not dead yet. And that he just got brainblasted with a fair bit of collective human experience. And that it said he’d be back in a few months. And that our brave heroes are going off on a journey that’s gonna take some time.
That's why I specified safe location.It will be still a hell of a surprise:
"We escaped from both the cannibal-rapist bandits and the dragon!
Where are we now?
At the northern edge of the Continent of the Night...."
Yeah, in hindsight, what was the point of that? Give them a scare for some personal drama, then forget it one chapter later?This chaptwr invalidated the previous 2. I do not like that.
