Almost dosing off, Warwick forces himself to sit up.
"Can't sleep yet, still have stuff to do," He reminds himself, as he grudgingly gets up.
He takes a bite out of the cheese and leaves the room.
As he leaves the Inn, he slows down as he sees Nora.
"Hey, Nora. I'm sorry I've been so busy,"
"Are you still busy?"
Warwick rubs the back of his head, "Yea, but I can talk for a bit now. Ten minutes of us talking is about 15 seconds of him waiting."
"That doesn't make sense. Who is it you plan to meet?"
"The Gee- Hmm... It's complicated. Give me a second to figure out how to explain this..."
"Okay... Are you sure everything is okay?" Nora asks, getting more concerned than angry.
"Yeah. So, he's not a god, but has the ability to make most milletians disappear if they're not following a specific set of rules. As far as I'm aware, the first milletian and me are the only exceptions."
"Does he think you did something to break those rules?"
"Kindof. He believes that I'm different, and wants to talk to me about it. There was another milletian that accused me of breaking the rules because I was carrying a money pouch in my hand. For the others, that's not exactly possible..."
"Wait. They can't hold a money pouch in their hands? How do they buy things?"
Warwick shrugs, "I actually don't know... Try not to think about it too hard..."
"This is all very confusing... It's like the world works differently for you milletians..."
"That's an understatement. Though for me, it's a lot more similar to you though."
"That's a relief, so you'll be around often then?"
Warwick sucks his teeth before confessing, "Actually, I have stuff in the world I come from to do, so there will be long stretches of time where I am gone. Time moves similarly for me there as it does for other milletians. So me being gone for a day there is me vanishing for a month here."
"With that much time lost, how will you get anything done?"
"Fortunately, I have a lot of spare time over there. So me disappearing for an hour over there provides me with almost a couple days here."
"I see. I should not keep you any longer. Thanks for explaining this to me, even though it's so confusing."
"It's no problem. I'm staying in the inn tonight if you want to come up and chat more later."
"I might just do that."
With that, Warwick walks towards the town square.
On his way up, he runs into something, as the GM cancels his hiding skill.
"You have to stop doing that!" Warwick yells.
A few minutes pass by.
"It's not my fault, you move way faster than I can react." the GM emotionlessly states.
Warwick gives off a large sigh, "Can we stop by the Alby dungeon entrance first? While I don't think I could fend off the foxes, I definitely don't want to run through the wolves."
About three minutes pass.
"Sure, I'll make sure you can tag all three."
After five minutes pass by, and the GM's Bone Dragon shows up.
Warwick quickly gets on long before the GM can react.
Two minutes later, and the dragon flies up.
It only takes about 4 minutes for them to reach the Alby Dungeon Moon Gate.
This time Warwick actually waits for the dragon to land before getting off.
He runs to the Moon Gate and steps onto the platform as a map of the 1 Moon Gates he has access to opens in his mind.
Warwick selects the one he's at and reappears on the same disk he got on.
He then runs and gets back onto the dragon.
"Do you mind if you can help me tag Ceo Island? I really don't want to have to swim there."
"yes" the GM manages to quickly state.
After a few minutes, the GM gets off the dragon and the three travel to Ceo Island.
Warwick proceeds to tag the Ceo Island Moon Gate, following with the Tir Chonaill Moon Gate, and the Ciar Dungeon Moon Gate.
The whole process only takes about twenty minutes due to the GM's movement times.
Afterward, Warwick grabs some dirt off the ground and compacts it into a ball.
"What on earth are you doing?"
"Making a ball of dirt. An item not in the game's files, therefore, will create a dungeon not in the game's system."
The GM takes a few minutes to respond.
"I hope it wasn't a surprise that I got called on you."
"It really wasn't."
Warwick walks into the Ciar Dungeon altar room and stands at the Altar of the Goddess.
After a few minutes, the GM walks in and stands at the Altar as well.
Warwick drops the Ball of Dirt, and everything goes black.
