Chapter 48

If I still had ears, I’d be grinning to both of them. Freddie’s boss has no idea what he’s getting into. At least his relaxed smile falters a bit when he turns and sees the look on Freddie’s face.

“What’s wrong?” he asks the younger before looking around. Nah, there are no traps around. Well, aside from that quest, heh.

“Uh … you remember the big spider that Yvonne’s group rode to go fight Neverrest?” asks Freddie, unsure how to actually explain what this quest entails. The small big guy nods.

“Ah, yes, Miss Yvonne. I wish I could have given her more insight to her unique condition.”

“Well, that big spider is Tiny.”

He blinks. “That’s not tiny at all.”

Freddie smiles. “Yeah … I think the dungeon named him that just for that kind of reaction. Tiny is also the boss of the maze,” he says, motioning for his boss to follow.

At the hedge maze, the scene is now a little different than usual. I had Fluffles clear the maze while the two were walking from the cemetery, and he’s now coiled at the entrance. The usual runners are all standing around chattering, confused at the change.

Freddie sees everyone and raises his voice for them all to hear. “The dungeon has a quest in the maze for Head Priest Torlon. To loot Tiny’s chest.” The crowd goes silent for a moment before they start murmuring about the news. Torlon looks like he’s starting to understand the magnitude of the quest now as Freddie turns to face him.

“See … there are a couple chests in there which people try to get, while Tiny tries to catch them before they can. Oh, and there are dire rats who try to steal your stuff sometimes, too. Anyway, Tiny has his lair in there, and some people have said there’s a chest in there, too, but nobody’s been able to get it yet. Even Mr. Tarl hasn’t been able to get it,” he adds.

To his credit, Torlon looks more intrigued than concerned. “And if Tiny catches you, he webs you, and you get carried out? I remember hearing something about you losing something to a spider Guardian?” He thinks for a few moments before speaking up again. “Are we allowed to fight Tiny?”

The young orc scrunches his face in uncertainty. “Uh … kinda? I think just about everyone has taken a swing at Tiny, but he doesn’t seem to take it personally. He tends to take weapons away after webbing people who try to attack, though.”

The gnome smiles and seems to start warming up; hopping in place, wiggling his fingers, just getting the blood pumping. “Maybe if I was more of a fighting class I’d try my luck, but I’m not. Did you know, Freddie, that I wasn’t always an adherent to the Crystal Shield?”

“Uh … I mean, you had to be a kid at some point, right?” he replies, clearly having no clue where the priest is going with this.

The gnome laughs as he starts casting little sparkles over his head, I guess to get his mana pumping, too.
