King's Quest VI - part seven
Good day to you all! Time for part seven:
Last time in part six:
Garden: I'm hilarious. :B
Rotten Tomato: YER UGLY AND YOU SMELL BAD
Alexander: Aww, I think I'll keep him! :D
hercrabbiness: Die, Alexander! DIE!! >:)
Alexander: *dies*
And now for part seven...
We left off at the garden of puns, where I just got strangled by some insecure clinging vines. Apart from looking around and talking to plants, all I really did last time was grab a bottle of milk, a rotten tomato, and a head of iceberg lettuce. YAY FOR WASTING TIME! :D
Oh yeah, and I scared the Hole in the Wall.
Anyways, let's open the doors to CHESSBOARD LAND!
(Chessboard Land's music)
WOOO CHESSBOARD LAND! ... Actually, I hate to disappoint you, but this is all you'll ever see of this place. Really, it's more like "Chessboard Screen" than Chessboard Land.
The red chess knight, however, is apparently not noble like the white one.
Like I said, this is all of Chessboard Land you'll ever see. You would think you would be able to go down that path, but here's what happens when you try...
Knights: "Oh no you don't"
:/ ... Then why don't you put up a sign on the door that says, "No visitors allowed" or something? Must you make everything so difficult for us?
Hmmph, I can take a hint..
Wait, some more chess pieces are coming!
*bow*
A lump of coal? ... Have the vizier and the princess been that naughty this year?? :O Wait... ew, I really don't want to go there. I'm sorry.
I love how they came all this way just to argue in front of us... and then completely ignore us.
Red Queen: "Good idea! Let's go to the entrance!"
Knight: "Well actually ma'am, I'm not queen of this isle..."
Red knight: "Think we should do anything to help resolve this?"
White knight: "Nah."
A-ha, the first mention of the "stolen property" that has caused the islands to feud with each other! So supposedly the Beast stole the Singing Stone from the Isle of Wonder.
Begging your pardon Your Highness, but isn't showing maturity and fair play a virtue? :|
Actually, the first thing that comes to mind when I think of red is "shame." Thank you The Scarlet Letter...
Alexander: "Well... um... it was just a thought..." :(
HEY! D:
We get snubbed again...
Well, since the guards obviously aren't going to do anything about it...
And now let's give the scar--wait, what the heck is that puddle of water!?
Oh CRAP, I forgot how quickly the iceberg lettuce melts. I haven't had the lettuce melt on me in a long time, but when you're doing screencap adventures... well, these things take up a lot of time.
Anyways, let's give the scarf to the red knight.
The red knight proceeds to nibble at Alexander's head.
Let's go back to the garden and get another head of iceberg lettuce. We're going to need it.
That joke = fail, Mr. Narrator.
Yeah, I almost completely forgot about this, but that pink thing has been floating in the water ever since we got here. We need that too.
Yes, we have established that already...
Huh?? "Where are you going?" isn't an incomplete sentence! o_o ...is it?
Once again, we will not think about that too much, and head for the Isle of the Beast.
This is the shore of the Isle of the Beast. It's a very beautiful forrested little island.
Normally this music wouldn't be playing, nor would this creature normally hang around here (no pun intended. Promise).
"Get down here!"
WHY are you so startled, Alexander? Thus far, you have talked to a spider, a giant worm, a number of plants, and some chessboard pieces. But you're surprised now that a creature like this can talk??
"Strong with you the Force is not! Let go of your anger you should!"
Hmmm... do YOU know the answer, dear readers? ;D
Alexander: "I'm Prince Alexander of Daventry. There, now you know me."
Creature: "KNOW-you know-you I do not."
Alexander: "...oh."
Let's give him the so-called "incomplete" sentence that has changed from pink to blue for no reason at all.
AAAAAH IT TICKLES
Well, two if you count Rotten Tomato.
Don't worry, bud; we'll get you home!
OH BOY, a boiling pond!
>:D
>:D heh heh heh
AAAAA IT BURNS, IT BURNS
OH THE HUMANITY
Hahahaha what?? XD
Well played, Narrator. Well played.
Okay, try this again. Have you figured out what to do to get across?
If your guess was "Toss the iceberg lettuce into the pond," you were correct! :)
Ahahaha I love the dorky way he runs across the pond!
Hey wait a minute... before we threw in the lettuce, didn't Alexander sink into the water like a stone? How come it's all shallow now?? DAMN YOU, INCONSISTENCY!
It might have something to do with the fact that someone's clearly staring at us. Maybe.
By the way, does this music sound familiar to you? It should.
Alexander: "..."
No, I like it over here! :(
Hmm..
Let's take it!
OH MY GOD IT MOVED THE STATUE MOVED HELP
But it..! The statue...! D:
*twinkle*
Ohhhh what the hell.
ARROW'D!
Gardener: "YAY!"
Alexander: "Damn yoouuuuu.." *dies*
Yeah, good thing you weren't acting too obvious or anything...
Haw haw haw! *slaps knee* :B
Okay, let's end part seven here. Nothing of too much significance going on in the next chapter, but we'll be able to talk to our buddy Jollo again, AND I'll actually befriend the nightingale this time (promise!). Thanks for reading, and stay tuned! :)
