[With the Manaus Statue being stolen it doesn't take long for Hadou Kouzou to show up on the Chalice again when the ship crosses paths with one of his own ships

Ah, you again!

Nice to see you man. Let's see...what sort of weaknesses does this Zs-a-wia have? Obviously we're gonna shoot for interrupting the ritual, but, you know...

[ceocowboy]

Roads glad to see you're still in one piece.

As for weaknesses, Zs-a-wia doesn't have any. If it actually is summoned the best thing we could do is retrieve the Manaus Statue from it.

[punches_vamps]

Well, that's...cheery. Any way we could find the statue within it? I'd rather not have to go searching around in a death-god's guts...

[ceocowboy]

I'm afraid that you'll have to take the plunge. Killing a god takes quite a bit of work.

[punches_vamps]

I am going to put that on my resume, if things work out that way.

Seems as straightforward as things can be, then...break the ritual if possible, get the statue if not.

Anything else you've got to help out? Parts, supplies, high powered-weaponry?

[ceocowboy]

I might have something up my sleeves for later on...for now however.

[Large book suddenly spawned with magic and handed to Roads.]

This could be helpful.

[punches_vamps]

...A book?

[Roads turns it over some, noting the goddamn padlock keeping it shut, then sets it on a nearby table with a heave.]

Damn, that thing's heavy...What's it about? and do you have the key?

[ceocowboy]

Just some knowledge that I picked up here and there. Maybe some other things.

Sorry to say that I lost the key quite a while ago.

[punches_vamps]

Huh. Well, I'll keep ahold of it...should come in handy someday.
