Hark Hero! A small [VERY PRETTY, BRAVE AND MEGA-AWESOME] Volgecko appears to block your path!!! Her scales the colour of dark obsidian, subtle glimmers of small orange radiating from beneath her scales. She looks up at you with large rounded beady eyes, swimming in different orange and yellow colours, a small hint of orange quartz protruding from her scaled [UNPIERCEABLE AND TOUGH AS IRON!] hide. Held in her claws sits a large blade, clearly too large for her small size, [HEY, THAT'S NOT TRUE WHAT THE HECK WHO WROTE THIS??!] but it would fit perfectly in your hands, Hero [NOPE, ME AND SWORDIE ARE BFF'S FOREVER NOW].

“Hah! I’ve got you now, you so called “Hero” – You’ve thought that you could just wonder about here on the outskirts of Myddul for free? No chance! We’ll see if your legend truly lives up to its name! I challenge you to a mighty duel, Hero! Stand and fight!”

Action: Examine … Examining … Pika – Volgecko KNIGHT … ATK: ∞ … DEF: ∞ … MP: Magic is for Wizards and Losers … TP: Power of Love and Friendship … Tutorial Boss SUPER-DUPER SECRET ENDGAME RAID BOSS …

Well done for making it past [THE FINAL BOSS], Hero! [BUT YOUR PATH IS BLOCKED BY ONE FINAL FOE - ME! HAHAH! YOU THOUGHT THAT BIG OL'SERPENT WAS THE FINAL BOSS OF THE GAME??? REALLY? NOT A CHANCE SILLY! IT IS I! PIKA! KNIGHT OF ANCIENT RENOWN … CHAMPION OF TEPHRA, THE GODDESS OF LAVA … THE DESTROYER OF WORLDS!!! … HAHAHA! MUHAHAH …

“UHHHH WHOOOOPS SORRY, SORRY I LOADED THE WRONG ETERNITY SORRY I UHHH DON'T PAY ATTENTION TO THAT … I'M SORRY I WROTE THIS WHILE JUST MESSING AROUND A LITTLE BIT OKAY!!! I … I …”

A slight pause

The scene cuts to the lush and vibrant woodland of the Heartwood … with the image of Pika hoisted up by one of her feet by a giant Vineling, dangling upside down, being thrown and flailed around like a paper bag while Swordie lies on the ground.

“No no that uhhh that w-wasn’t the brightest moment in my adventuring career … I uhmm no no this is not it”

The scene cuts to a dingy, sleazy tavern in Myddul - an excited and hyperactive Pika is happily discussing something with a certain Shadecrawler wearing a well-worn zig-zaggy poncho in mustard and teal … the little Volgecko seems really excited as she holds her blade up high.

“No no that’s when the Adventurer’s Initiative was created! Okay t-that’s a bit closer! Uhhh okay okay where it it now?”

The scene cuts to a wide panorama of the black ashen wastes of Lizard's Fangs - Pika nervously struggling to drag her blade up the volcanic steps of Mt Molar, following in the steps of an Luminymph lady wearing an eye-patch and an wide brimmed hat. When she notices Pika struggling to keep up, she hoists her up onto her back and gives her a piggy-back the rest of the way up the mountain as Pika sighs in relief with a smile.

“No no, that's when uhmm we freed Tephra and I nearly had my whole bloodline burned by Lavata and all uhhh … GOSH DARN IT WHERE IS IT??!?”

The scene cuts to a different peak of the Lizard's Fang's - active volcanoes raging in the background. Pika is looking up at the same Luminymph lady with the wide brimmed hat – tears freely flow from the little Volgecko's eyes as words such as “training dummy”, “cast aside”, “discarded like some used up toy” and “useless” briefly reverberate. The lady figure picks Pika up and gives her a tight embrace.

“Ohhhh … I r-remember that yeah uhmmm I was still going through my whole character arc back then and all … WAIT WHAT DO YOU MEAN EVERYONE IN THE GAME CAN SEE ALL OF THIS RIGHT NOW!”

The scene cuts for the last time. There are no longer raging volcanoes, or a lush woodland forest. Just a decently sized, humble cottage – a large sunset in the background painting it in rays of orange and yellow. Inside, where on one end lies a large, sheathed Blade, and on the other a majestic and impressive looking Glaive.

The little Volgecko is arranging some items on a nearby shelf as she hums a happy jaunty little tune to herself, her tail happily wagging behind her – it is cluttered with a variety of paints, brushes, chipped wood and other arts and crafts materials.

Arranged in a neat row sit various little carefully crafted wooden figurines – all differently carved shapes with vibrant splashes of colours behind them. A Shadecrawler wearing a poncho, a Luminymph with a bunch of tiny maps scattered around them, a Capybara poking his head out from the background, a visage of a face made of pure magma, even a figurine of a shiny polished sword can be spotted, among many others.

In the centre of them all, on a special little stand with a heart shaped locket leaning against it, stands the figure of a lady wearing a wide brimmed hat. Pika looks up to it with a little smile as the last rays of the setting sun illuminate a little painted sign above them all.

…

Friends.
