The Adamantoise
A distant roar thundered through the Terrigan headland. The animals around me got frightened and bewildered by the distant sound. I crouched down to pet a beach bunny that seemed terrified. There there, it’s nothing to worry about,
I comforted it. But deep down I knew that the roar was something to be concerned about. I smiled warmly to the little rabbit, giving it a little carrot that I had in my bag. Oh well, guess I’ll just have to find something else to eat then,
I told myself as I got back on my feet and made my way through the sandy terrain.
The sun was shining brightly in the sky, and small animals of all shapes and sizes were out in the open. The air was salty, and there was a gentle breeze blowing in from the vast ocean. The sand felt warm as I made my way toward the area where the sound originated from, and the scenery filled my heart with joy.
A new roar reverberated through Terrigan, this time much louder. I must be getting closer to source,
I thought to myself, running as fast as I could. Help!
My linkshell woke to life, as Greever cried out for help. Him and Yasko were battling an enormous tortoise, the Adamantoise, but were in bad shape. I’m almost there,
I informed the linkshell, just hold on!
A few others were also on the way, and I ran as fast as I could, entering a tunnel guarded by a group of manticores.
Our group made it just in time to save the two weary warriors. Sparroweye, wielding a mighty sword and a sturdy shield, provoked the giant turtle. The monsters attacks didn’t do much damage to Sparroweye, so our Thief, Stiffler, could concentrate on taking care of any undesired agro from nearby monsters.
The tortoise had a tough shell protecting it, and the damage dealers had to use all their might to put a dent in it’s massive carapace. The shell itself is as tough as adaman metal, and is much sought after by craftsmen all over the world. Monks are especially interested in it’s egg as it is used to prove their worth to receive their Black Belt.
