Adventurer Attacked by Cuccos
Tuesday 26 April 2011
A young adventurer was hospitalized earlier this week after being attacked by a hoard of cuccos. Link, the victim of the attack, woke up last night and was available for questioning this morning.
"I don't know why they came after me," the tattered adventurer claims. "I was just minding my own business when they came at me. I couldn't fend them all off."
A landlady, who wishes to remain anonymous, pulled Link from the assault says otherwise. "Oh I saw him," she says, standing just outside her inn, arms crossed. "He was messing with [the cuccos] and beating on them. It's no wonder they all off sudden ganged up on him." She sniffs, "He even tried to ride one off the roof."
Link denies any fault in provoking the cuccos.
"They're dangerous," he warns. "I'll die a happy man if I never have to deal with a cucco again."
After refusing the breakfast he was offered, which consisted of cooked eggs, he says, "What would really be nice is if I could get some mushrooms. Would really help with the pain."
