The many escapades of Zarbon: Volume Two
Zarbon searches some ruins
Zarbon, accompanied by Hisoka, Tanjiro, Juan, and Gasser, entered some ancient ruins on a quest to find a relic of great, notable power that they were looking to get a hold of. "Remind me again why we're here searching an ancient elven ruin?" Gasser asked.
"We're looking for the Elven crown of Sus, señior Gasser," Juan said, "The elven race has declared war on the human race, and we've been hired by the human army as mercenaries to help fight off the elves."
"General Wulfric thinks that by obtaining the Elven crown of Sus," Hisoka went on, "An important relic to elvenkind, and holding it firmly on the side of the humans, it'll demoralize the elves."
Gasser gave a dry look. "Remind me again why the elves had declared war on the humans."
Shrugging, Zarbon said, "I don't know, something about how an even noble's daughter had been murdered in human territory, or something."
Gasser simply rolled his eyes at the less than satisfactory answer that he had been given, and proceeded to follow the rest of the group further into the ruins. As he followed the group, Gasser asked, "Well, can any of you at least tell me what the Elven crown of Sus even looks like?"
"It's a simple crown that doesn't have a cloth poofy thing in it," Hisoka began to explain, "The antler-esque detailing of the body of the crown is a rather common staple in elven craft, but if one tales a closer look they will see that the crown was actually made by dwarven craftsmen of the highest skill, who had tried imitating the elven style when they were crafting the crown."
Gasser nodded in understanding. "I guess that would explain why it's been dubbed as the Elven crown of Sus."
Zarbon nodded in the affirmative. "Indeed. It was made by the dwarves and given to the elves as a token of friendship between the two races in the early days of an alliance between the two of them. Of course, said alliance had wholly fallen apart five years later due to the dwarves being wiped out wholly when a chicken farted, but that's another story for another time."
Looking right at Zarbon with a dumbfounded look of complete and total bafflement on his face, Gasser said, "...Actually, I think I want to hear that story now."
"Yeah," Tanjiro said, both his tone and expression skeptical, "I also wanna know how, of all things, a chicken farting can wholly wipe out the dwarven race."
"Save your obsession with chicken farts for later, mi amigos," Juan said, "We're getting close to the path leading to the bottom of the ruins, which is where the crown should be located."
Soon enough, the party reached some stairs that led deeper into the ruins that they were all in. Gesturing to the stairs, Gasser asked, "I assume that this here is the path that you had mentioned earlier, Juan?"
The latino Pikachu nodded in the affirmative. "Si. In order to get to the crown, we'll have to go in deeper, penetrating right into the inner sanctum."
"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHOOOOOOOO!" Zarbon and Hisoka both cried out in unison, their tones sounding with aroused, sensual pleasure as the both of them bounded right in, forcing the rest of the party to give chase after the two lovers.
After Gasser, Juan, and Tanjiro had caught up with Zarbon and Hisoka down on the lower level, the five of them came upon a most unsettling sight; the withered, somewhat mummified body of an ancient elven ruler, sitting upright but slightly hunched over. The long dead elf wore the Elven crown of Sus upon its head.
"Everyone, get ready to attack," Gasser said as he prepared a mass of fart gas in his right hand to throw, "I've played enough Skyrim to know what could happen if we approach that elf corpse all willy-nilly." The others agreed, and Gasser tested the dead elven ruler by hitting it directly in the face by throwing the prepared fart mass at it.
As it turned out, all that did was knock the dead elf out of its seat, the crown still on its head. "...It's not coming to life after all," Gasser noted as Juan bounded over and successfully nabbed the Elven crown of Sus.
Putting his sword away, Tanjiro remarked, "True, but your call was still a good idea. Anyway, we got what we came for, so let's get straight the hell out of here while completely ignoring any other potential treasure." The rest of the guys agreed, and proceeded to get right the hell out of the ruins.
They then later gave the Elven crown of Sus directly to General Wulfric, which had brought their quest to a successful end, as well as bring the human race one step closer to winning the ongoing war against the elves.
Author's notes;
If you are sneaking around in some ruins and you see a withered corpse sitting in a stone throne, chances are it'll come to life if you get close. Anyway, this kicks off the arc involving a war between the humans and elves, with said war having more to it than meets the eye. Anyway, the next chapter will see the kickoff of another arc that'll span multiple escapades. Take care.
