Another day in the life of a daughter of Kali who is finding who she really is.
Trolls.
That is what landed on the top of the metro car we were in. They tore open the roof and I jumped up to engage one. There were four smaller and one really large one. I didn’t think I could do much against the large one, so I concentrated on a smaller one. It took a couple of swipes, but I took it down along with the other one that stayed. The others worked on the ones that jumped down. When they all went down, I looked to see if we took any casualties and saw Magnus lying on the floor. The man is nearly seven feet tall and covered in muscles, yet a troll takes him down. Yeah, whatever.
Zane and Nemi immediately tended to Magnus. I just put my headphones in and listened to my music while sitting on the back of one of the seats. For some odd reason, Ji-Woo decided that I was worried about Magnus. I guess she thinks I still have interest even though I’ve stopped staring at him. I’m over the initial shock and now realize exactly who he is, which is a typical, arrogant rock star.
So we take Sari home in hopes of finding her brother, which we don’t. We do find a lot of zombies. We mow through them, kinda. I mean, when we had to go down in the workroom, which was made for dwarves, it was a bit cramped. For all of us. Especially Magnus. I wanted to laugh at his awkwardness, but he had now acquired a chainsaw, so I kept my mouth closed.
Since we have no clue of where Bori may have gone, we head into a swamp to talk to a friendly troll who may have some information about a troll wife who might be around. He didn’t know anything, except for the creatures that attacked him in the swamp that were new. He does have a contact that he’s going to talk to and see if he can find anything out about the troll wife.
Ji-Woo decides that maybe she should just drink a bit of absinth and consult her little coin things. Well, why didn’t we do this before going out into the swamp? She found that Bori was back in the maintenance tunnels of the metro. Sari said he has a train that he put a dragon’s skull on the front and wings on the side and he’s trying to figure out how to make it fly. So that’s where we find him, exactly as she said.
We take the dwarves back to the caves to keep them safe with the girls. We’re going to stay here overnight. Ji-Woo and Magnus sneak off, of course. I feel like I’m surrounded by horny teenagers, because I know for a fact that Andy is one. Or at least he acts like one. At least I can take his actions. I’m not so sure about the others. I’m still working them out and how they fit into the final plan.
