The Yoshis that are not here. What gives??

In fact, I'm the last one here.

Where on earth have you mongrels dragged me while I slept anyway?

Sorry. This is reheated exposition here.


So, ruins. Fun stuff.



Ghost lady, what is your deal?





I want to pay now, ya








Shroob feels relaxed at the hot spring, all for the cost of 1 coin.










ggrugh

But these are actually found on sewers.




You disgust me.






Some mystical-ass ruins beckon.



YESSSSSSS

The ruins seem ripe with overgrowth.







Kreg happens upon two stone tablets used as doors.
They seem to open!





uh


What an awful dungeon.

A giant four headed statue looms. It sports yoshi heads sticking their tongues out.


Special.

I bet Kristen would love it though! ^.^

Shrody fills in his comrads about the Swooper. It has 4 HP and 2 Attack. It can drain health for an attack, sort of like Fuzzies.


Scant few attacks actually hit Swoopers when they're on the ceiling, but when they're knocked loose, they're easy.



They can also silence someone with Echofinder.

Unless Harken gets to be one. I would be fine by that!


well, screw that noise




A poisonberry was dropped by the last Pokey.

Get that berry on the way out.




very funny

So, which one wants a poisonberry?






This isn't rocket science, dearie.


There's the hint.



The berry is placed on the tongue, and it retracts into the head. The head chews the berry, but spits it back out at Kreg.
The berry didn't seem to go over well...




"Bluuuh."




It is an ancient hieroglyphic of a smiling yoshi.

Damnit, that was Spooker

hm



The hieroglyphic details that the hungers and tastes of the 4-headed Yoshi must be fulfilled.
A vine has grown in the previous room.




brrrrr

The statue looks ferocious.
The vine hangs from above, but seems to go nowhere.



A poisonberry falls down!

Spooker decides to hang out inside a pillar.
Being incorporeal must be fun.




You just have some chewed up crud from the other yoshi head, numbnuts!











The doors shut behind Spooker!

"Well well. Have you figured me out?"





The chomp smiles. "You know the riddle, apparently. Thirty white horses, red hill, yadda yadda."




"What is there to cheat?"

A rock falls on Shrody.



"This may be a more efficient method."

"Also, my friend Wanda. Do you wish to phase through me?"

"You may if you wish."

"I didn't really need to ask." The chomp smiles.





You clearly don't mind calling ME wrong names.

The chomp smiles. "Well, it is of no matter your name. I just know. Which, I might add, it does not appear that you even know the names of your own friends!"




"If they're unimportant, why not just phase right through me?" The chomp chuckles.



"I don't think you're afraid. Just woefully naive!"

"Well then. Ladies first? Or do you have a change of heart?"

And you say you're all-knowing?
Now if you'll just move aside we can be on our way and nobody has to know about this embarassing incident.

What was our question again?

You're a chomp.

"I may have heard that joke in my eons of watching over this room."

"But..." A rock falls on Spooker.





GOSH

A rock falls on Wanda.









Spooker may be onto something. But he really just feels the chomp looks delicious.


The chomp chuckles at Spooker.

You're ignoring me, aren't you?
"Actually, I'm listening intently for answers. I like dropping rocks on folks."


A door! A guardian! A stupid trial!

"I know the feel, Spooker. I have been bitten plenty of times in my life."
A rock falls on Wanda.



But fine, yes, you're a tongue.
"... Ooh. Is that an answer?"


Let us out of this awful room.

"It's all about the things we do, after all."
"We can be friends. Platonically."







He's made of rock he hasn't actually been bit.
That must be a hint for the riddle.
But he's not a tongue so he's just cheating.
"Indeed. Probably by more successful adventurers, even."

OH WAIT WE DON'T HAVE IT

Catena, go bite the door.
A rock tattle log falls on Catena.

I am the best ever.

Esmond runs in conspicuously dressed in a bath towel and clothes.

"Well, Esmond, I believe you are."





Just...roll with it.

I'd love to scientifically analyze this door.
"I have a feeling you might make the same, albeit funny when repeated 30 times, error that the rest of your group made."



Oh? Well, I'd like to take a crack at it! I was great at riddles in the war!

The door is a couple of stone sliding doors with a single stone, now smiling chomp serving as the lock.






"Well, someone seems to be on a roll."





teeth are sinsible things

"Well. You're just about as right as everyone else. But I'm a gentlemanly chomp with a dapper smile."




"May I see your smile, Catena?"



:)?

The chomp closes his eyes and smiles. "Great teeth you got there, Catena. You may pass."
