Something large stood in the depths of the darkness. Alisa squinted her eyes and focused on it.
“It’s a stone statue… I wonder if it could be…?”
Something large stood in the depths of the darkness. Alisa squinted her eyes and focused on it.
“It’s a stone statue… I wonder if it could be…?”
There stood something in the depths of the darkness. Alisa cautiously stepped forward and leaned in to take a closer look.
“Oh, it’s a stone statue,” she said.
There stood a stone statue of a rather large man, nearly 2 meters tall. But just why was this in here…..?
“Tyrone?” Alisa murmured as she looked up.
But even so, it’s not like she would be able to carry him out of there. There was nothing she could do.
Alisa discovered a hole in the wall behind the stone statue. She could see light coming from it.
She crawled outside, and as soon as she did, a sudden landslide sealed up the exit behind her.
“That was close! …But what should I do from here? With the way things are now, there’s nothing I can do.”
After doing some thinking, Alisa decided on going after the “talking cat” she had heard about in Scion. If she wasn’t mistaken, she had heard something about it being sold to a merchant in Paseo over on the planet Motavia.
“Anyway, I’ve got to go to the spaceport.”
It was a stone statue of a rather large man, nearly 2 meters tall. But just what is something like this doing in here…..? Alisa craned her neck.
It’s not like she would be able to carry it out of there. Alisa decided to leave this place for later. At the L-shaped road, go:
“Could this be Tyrone?”
<I think so. Hurry, Alisa, hurry!>
“All right, allright. I just need to pour this medicine on him, right?”
Alisa removed the little bottle that was hanging from Myau’s neck. Inside was the special medicine called Alshline.
Fwoosh. Almost immediately the surface of the stone statue began to change. What was once gray now faded away and became soft in appearance.
Eventually, a great big man stood there, suddenly back to life.
“Uhh.. Say, where’s this? And who are you?” the big man — Tyrone — blinked his eyes.
Alisa explained the situation.
“I see. Thanks, you really saved me. Life as a statue sure was boring. But, damn… if even Medusa got the better of me, then I guess I’d be no match for La Shiec. I shouldn’t have even tried.”
“My brother was also working behind the scenes to take down La Shiec. He got killed for it. But,” Alisa paused. “Right before he died, he told me about you. He said that I should look for you… that you would be able to help…”
“I see…” Tyrone was quiet for a moment as he stared off into the distance. “Okay then. Let’s do this. We’ll join forces and take on La Shiec together — for your brother, too!”
Myau jumped onto the shoulders of his master with a whining purr.
“Hey! Did you miss me?” said Tyrone playfully. “Now then, let’s get out of this gloomy cave.” Tyrone reached down and picked up his old ax off the ground.
