Help!" @RoyalBeeMage He downs his vial of brass and flares it as high as it can go, trying to soothe away any anger or hunger within the octopus. (Does soothing even work on animals?) It seems to get even angrier, waving him about wildly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark grabs at the tentacle and yanks it away from his ankle, trying to stand. He stomps his other foot down on one tentacle. He also stops burning brass to conserve it.

It tastes absolutely foul, though there’s no way of knowing if it’s because A, it’s covered in mud. B, it’s uncooked. C, it’s still alive?! Maybe think about that before trying to eat something?! Or D, it’s actively trying to kill him. 6 minutes ago, WhyEverNot_8 said: Connor leaps to his feet and strolls towards Tinker.
