Skiller 2: (5) You dash up and swing your branch at this oddly-familiar person, whacking them right in the head.

Dmitry: No one is a robber! He's trying to murder someone!
???: OH GODS!
??: I'll get the town guard!
The gnome smiles in approval, and tries kicking him again, but misses this time.

Savaget 1337: (2) A strangely familiar person runs up to you with a branch and whacks you in the face with a stick. Ouch. You try to pull the dart out, but you are unable to, at least not without causing yourself quite a bit of pain.

Dmitry: No one is a robber! He's trying to murder someone!
???: OH GODS!
??: I'll get the town guard!
You can see the gnome try to kick again, but she misses.

Cathari Sarad: (4) Against all logic when compared to the common perception of unicorns, you climb onto the back of the unicorn and pat its side.

Catharine: Turn left.
The unicorn snorts and shakes its head, but ends up turning to the left.
Catharine: And right.
You can almost see the unicorn roll its eyes, but it turns to the right anyway. You fill with confidence knowing you have control over what is known to be a dangerous creature... or so you thought. Impatient for some sort of action, the unicorn decides to ride off with you on its back, past the exit of the graveyard and towards... somewhere.

Black Mage Anolis: (6) With a resolve to stop the fire and nobly save your village, you lift up the bucket and give a mighty swing. The water that the bucket was filled to the brim to splashes everywhere, and all over the fire, finally putting it out and ending your endeavor. You'll be a hero! You cry in your head. But when you look in your hands, your bucket is gone. Well....
When you turn to your teammates, all of them are soaked in the water you swung everywhere. The two taller adventurers in particular look somewhat annoyed. Even worse, the bucket seems to have landed on Rzet's head. Whoops.
You can now see the marching band coming towards the graveyard.

Bacon Zorp: (N/A) All hope seems lost, yet you still feel that hope draining as the music of the funeral march gets louder, closer. Only a miracle can save you now, you seem to think.
And that miracle comes, but... well, Anolis managed to throw the bucket and still have fire be put out. But since the water went pretty much everywhere in the vicinity of the burning trees, everything in that area is soaked- including you and the other adventurers. In fact, the bucket Anolis threw? It landed on your head. Nice bucket hat, sir.
You can now see the funeral parade some towards the graveyard.

Oh look, a ghost!

Savaget 1337: (1, 4) You decide to use that double-arrow trick you used earlier, since it seemed it would be useful. Sadly, the shot aimed at Skiller simply whizzes by his head, leaving him uninjured. Even worse, the the gnome managed to catch the arrow aimed at her- and return it to sender, hitting you in the shin. Ouch. Then Skiller attempts to tackle you, but you manage to get out of the way, letting him run into a lit lamppost, tipping it over.

??: THE GUARDS ARE COMING!

Skiller 2: (6) Savaget loads two arrow into his longbow, and attempts to shoot at both you and the gnome. The arrow whizzes by your head, missing it by a whisker, while the gnome catches the arrow that came towards her, and threw it back at Savaget, hitting him in the shin. It seems that monk levels are useful after all. You toss your branch aside and charge at Savaget, but he moves out of the way, so you instead charge into a lamppost, tipping it over. Thing is, lampposts in this town are essentially candles on really long stands, and the buildings nearby are flammable, so do the math. To make things either worse or better, you hear-

??: THE GUARDS ARE COMING!

Cathari Sarad: (N/A) The unicorn gallops right through the graveyard, and as you look back, it seems the bones are reassembling themselves. But no time for that, for off you are on a unicorn that may or may not be taking you to your doom.
In a short amount of time, you find yourself in what seems to be a farm- there are fields that seem to have been plowed some time ago. There are some pens, and a henhouse. In fact, you are sure you can hear the cries of farm animals, but so... ghostly. The unicorn stops right in from of a large barn and simply pauses, as if waiting.

Black Mage Anolis: (N/A)

Anolis': Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu—
Rzet takes off his (as Enigma admits, rather nice) 'hat' and hands it back to you.
Rzet: Thank you.
Anolis: You're welcome. Sorry about that.
Rzet: Well, at least the fire's gone. But....
And with that, he gets to piling the ashes in the bushes beside the trail. The other adventurers go over to help him, with one grumbling to himself.

Bacon Zorp: (3)

Anolis': Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu—
You take off your 'hat' (Which Enigma thought was a Nice Hat) and hand it back to Anolis.
Rzet: Thank you.
Anolis: You're welcome. Sorry about that.
Rzet: Well, at least the fire's gone. But....
And so, you get to work moving the ashes behind a bush by the trail- it seemed like the best place to put them. The trees are a different concern though. The adventurers go over to help, with one grumbling under his breath about how he hates being wet. On another note, you can see the funeral parade, more specifically the front- the band. It seems to be about 100 meters away right now.

Oh look, a ghost!

Bacon Zorp: (4)

Anolis: I've got to go- bye for now!
And with that,the kobold waves and sets off past the parade. You and the adventurers manage to pile all the ashes and fallen burnt branches behind some bushes, out of sight. Soon, the parade catches up, and you can see the band, a couple of adventurers following it, weapons drawn- you can recognize them from the line, except for one of them. She has obscenely long pink hair with white highlights- her eyes were particularly bright, and hanged color. And this wasn't even mentioning her armor! How strange...

Skiller 2: (4) You realize the unintended potential of the broken lamppost and decide to take a swing at your opponent- ignoring that the guards are coming and may get the wrong idea as well as the faint smell of smoke that knocking over the lamppost may or may not have caused. Success- your post swings right into Savaget's gut, knocking him over. He responds by pulling out the arrow in this leg, getting up and running off. You can hear the sound of hoof-beats not too far away- and coming closer.

Savaget 1337: (2, 4) You attempt to get out of the way of a lamppost coming your way, but to no luck. You get hit in the gut by a large post, knocking you over. Ouch. You do manage to pull out the arrow in your leg and get away, past the overworld point, getting away safely. Whoever those guards are, they seem scary.

Cathari Sarad: (1) You attempt to climb off the unicorn to explore around the barn... but while you attempt to climb off, you accidentally lightly knee the unicorn in the stomach. In response, the unicron freaks out, bucks and rears and whinnies, then runs you over with a sickening 'pop' in your knee and runs away from the barn. Ouch. As it runs off, you're absolutely sure you can hear it giggling cheekily to itself as it gives a horsey snort.

Afterwards:
> Heduth Anvildelver,
> Race: Dwarf
> Class: Fighter
> Current Location: Overworld point. You see some guy run past you. It is currently early evening.

Black Mage Anolis: (5)

Anolis: Bye for now!
With a little wave, you walk on the grass beside the little parade to get the other way. You check up on the gift you still haven't given yet- it seems to be in perfect shape. Then, as you walk by the parade, you can't help but notice one of the guards looks... odd. Crazy long hair with equally crazy colours, a rather impractical set of armor... it just seems rather out-of-place.
