Escutcheon looked on his to-do list then gazed at the vast expanse of the world that was Desert Scream. Just outside the town were some snakes and other desert critters he once thought were threats. The arid desert didn’t look very accommodating but it was a far cry from the hell hole that is Green Despair. It was only recently that Esutcheon and Ascognati discovered they could take on more than one quest simultaneously so they had a lot to catch up. After all, the woman he saved was now leagues beyond him and that was unacceptable.
The to-do list had a number of items on it that could be done in Desert Scream and one was to be done in Bloody Ice. Since he was there, Escutcheon opted to have it all done before he returns to town for more quests. “What the hell is an Armaku+?” Ascognati was a bit puzzled. Escutcheon trudged through the hot sands until he reached a location near the Research Center. There, he saw what looked like an Armaku but a little more… orange.
He approached it and readied his shield. Escutcheon was ready for the worst. It was called Armaku+ for a reason and he would soon find out why.
It didn’t attack. Instead, it tilted its head to the side and looked at him curiously. Escutcheon raised his sword to strike the beast but to his surprise, it didn’t try to attack or dodge. The creature rolled over instead; like a pet. It was so cute that Escutcheon couldn’t bring himself to hurt the critter. Although they had just encountered it, the Armaku+ found a place in his heart. He soon found himself attached and playing games with “Army”.
Then came the fateful day for him to… let go. Escutcheon look at his Armaku+ companion and gave him a sad look. “Army” knew what had to be done so for his master, he rolled one more time.
His time was done.
