A simple story to fill in the gaps.

Dragon Quest V is owned by Square Einx. Not me.

The character Ven's name comes from a pun off the title.


"Are we there yet?"

105th time she asked.

Ven was tired beyond belief. He was finally headed to his birthplace, and he just recently married. He should be happy, but he was far from it. He to go through mountains, monsters, and every single obstacle you can think of.

"Are we there yet?"

Oh, yeah. His wife was a beauty-queen-please-pamper-me-wife. 106th time she asked.

"No. And no. Probably still a no for the next hour."

"Hmph, some servant you are. You should asked to carry me."

Ven groaned. Saber, Alstor the Small Fry, and Mallen the Brownie, looked on as their master was taking such a beating.

"Are you?"

"No, Debora. Oh, look, monsters. Why am I not surprised…"

A group consisting of Fire-Eaters and Blizzard-Eaters arrived, but two Fire-Eaters went down after Alstor burned them with a powerful fire breath. Mallen whipped out his War Hammer and whacked a Blizzard-Eater. Saber clawed another one, leaving two monsters, one for the newly-wed. Ven rushed forward, slashing out with his sword. He missed, and the monster went for Debora. She easily took out that monster along with the other one.

She smiled at Ven, and asked, "You can carry me now."

Ven groaned again, and picked her up, bridal-style, and walked off in the direction of the only path they had.

"I love you Ven."

"I know, Debora. I know."
