Chapter 87 by Fiftyfiftyfifty Fiftyfiftyfifty

What do you do?

Go cyclops hunting.

Finally, you hop off the wagon where you need to diverge. The caravan continues north as your party heads east and into the hills. They become increasingly tall and rocky as you continue, making it more difficult to traverse. The four of you hike up through the winding goat-trails, between boulders and down valleys, until you finally near the destination labelled on the quest posting. It's an area nestles away from the rest of the region--an opening between the hills a distance downwards and head of you.

You can see a towering figure standing before the entrance of a cave. Your party crawls up and over a hill, prone on their stomachs. Before anything else, you turn to Amara and ask what she can see with her keen elven vision.

When you look back, you realize something, and it appears she has as well. You look back to the elf to see her face flushed pink, and it looks like she's trying not to stare with quite a lot of difficulty. The rest of your party reacts in a similar manner. You return your gaze down to see it leaning on the wall by the entrance, and a large wooden club rests beside it.

The creature does appear to be the cyclops, but you never considered what one might wear. Not only does it stand at about fifteen feet tall, but a massive cock hangs down from between its legs. The creature is completely naked. You see that it has a body similar to that of a human man's, though massively tall and wide. His single eye remains closed.

"O-Oh my," Amara mutters.

"I guess it makes sense," Niki whispers. "Who would he dress up for? But damn."

"All right. Stop staring so we can figure out a plan," you say quietly. "It looks like he's napping. That's perfect. We also have a perfect ambushing point. Before he wakes up, we'll blast him with all the ranged attacks we have, so we can wear him about before he gets up the hill. Then, Niki and I will finish him off. We couldn't have asked for a better setup here."

"Just watch for his club," Amara adds.

Eva mumbles, "Which one?" under her breath.

Now that I know everybody's abilities for the most part, I really feel like we can work together here. I'll get Eva to use Magic Bolt, and Amara to use Celestial Blast, so we can pepper him with range. They'll be able to charge up all they want too, since he's not only down there, but not even awake. Then, Amara can heal when needed, while Niki does her thing. Maybe I'll slide in like a total badass and cut his legs up with some sick sword move. Should I give it a name?

"All right, let's do this!" Niki shouts as she stands back up, and begins hustling down the side of the hill. "Hit it with those ranged thingies!"

"Wh--No!" you shout. "We had the element of surprise, you moron!"

"Shall we attack now?" Amara asks.

You hold your head. "Yes. Please do that."

What do you do?
