The SHIT Monster

by Sanna Finch

The robot says his name is Sparkos McDavey. He thinks he's a pirate and talks like he's straight out of some pirate story you tell the kids to sccare them. He knows nothing about the world. I think I'll just have to take him to Vulcrom and see from there. Obviously, he's not broken but I can't risk Ankita finding out. I, and the boat, need the money she paid.
 
Bo and the robot interrogated the bandit. He told us where to find the hideout of those criminals and that our stuff would be there. So that is were we went. Bo is surprisingly good at this sort of stuff, sneaking around, finding tracks, looking for danger. He managed to pick a lock and we got three crates of our stuff and more. He's very useful right now. Not sure how it'll be once we're on the water.
 
Shit happened on the way back. There was this fucking giant shit moster that I think wanted to eat us. We ran. Bo, Grim and I were fast enough but Sparkos wasn't. It's not like I didn't try to save him. I'm aware that another helping hand on the boat wouldn't be bad for our chances of winning that race. Especially since he doesn't need food or water. In the end, my life is more important than the wellbeing of this robot. I stand by that. Bo, however, ran back to help and now there were two people on the line. Brave but stupid. Grim and I used our magic, The robot and Bo their weapons. Eventually, the thing died. Sparkos was severely damaged. Lost a leg.
 
At the dock, they were able to fix the leg. It seemed painful for him though.
 
On the plus side, we got our stuff back and then some. The guards payed 350sp for killing the bandit and information about the hideout. We're on track to leave in a boat that won't sink with enough supplies and one extra ally.
