That was the worst buggin' holiday, ever!
Seriously who would think a peaceful island resort surrounded by an endless blue sea and filled with smiling attentive, and a little too close for comfort staff would actually be the mind den of a buggin’ great big eyed monster called a beholder that actually wanted to feast on our brains and drink up our thoughts till there was nothing left but dried empty coconut husks?
Oh? Yeah me neither, but that’s just what happened!
It had been going so well too, we’d gotten together a nice little crew of Pisti, a pretty little saplin’, Goop the goblin who said he wanted to catch some sun-he was looking a little green-and a chilled out halfin’ fella named Laurel and his…big goat, Poppy.
We’d all managed to drag Aurelia out of the office just long enough for Jenna to open up a portal to the holiday destination of choice, The Oasis, which apparently came highly recommended-I’ll be buggin’ sure to be writing my own review after this. I wonder if you rate in ‘danger of death’?
The place itself seemed nice enough, too nice even, I should’ve had my eyes peeled from the start. That first woman Margret was just way too flittin’ smiley, and th-that thing, posing as that all dark and gloomy..attractive Morrigan woman-IT JUST PRACTICALLY SCREAMED ‘I AM EVIL!’ I’m soo buggin’stupid!
The ‘beach’ really was beautiful I have to admit for seeing it for the very first time, and riding the giant fish was pretty fun too I suppose but…It wasn’t real! And as soon as Aurelia started talking about us being there for hours and hours when we definitely hadn’t I just knew something wasn’t right! And that Morrigan thing…It just couldn’t seem to keep her eyes?… ‘Eye’?.…W-whatever, monster vision off her!
No way was I gotta let her go off alone with ‘that’ thing again when it tried to tempt Aurelia with her weakness…Books.
Once Laurel got it starting talking about how it liked to ‘gather people together’, and they ‘never ever wanted to leave’, that was flittin’it. We were gettin’, THE BUG OUT OF THERE!
It didn’t like that.
I-It’s strange… Cause I knew I needed to get Aurelia outta there, I didn’t loose myself like the other times when I’ve gotten angry recently. Which is probably a good thing as this thing, this Beholder…Not even on a bug have I seen so many eyes, and all boring into us with such a…a hunger.
If looks could kill, we didn’t stick around to find out, We flew!…Well…Backed out for our lives, watching as this thing’s home went from a 5 star resort to a 1 star empty ruined husk, complementary guaranteed chance of your demise provided.
As we met up with the others Aurelia still seemed to have her wits enough to warp us outta there though, and once we’d hit dirt back at Daring Heights, she seemed to come to her senses and realised what that thing had been trying to do. Put simply we won’t be recommending it to any ‘friends’ anytime soon.
So our little getaway plan for Aurelia didn’t work out so well, however it didn’t mean we didn’t make the most of Aurelia’s time off! I swear if you’re ever gonna go on a tavern crawl of Daring Heights, you seriously need to get Aurelia to go with you!
Flit that woman can put back an ale…”
