Nan's Journal: The Darkest Chronicles

[NanTheDark]

I dream of one day changing the world.

[Harmless]

You and me both.

[NanTheDark]

OH RIGHT I HAVE TO SAVE AMP



I'M COMING I'M COMING



Well, I tried to prepare for this. Gathered some food, a small pizza (after buying a large one without knowing it was a group item), and a teddy bear that died like 5 minutes later.

That stupid pencil was still there so I just came back...



So I get this call from the inventor Apple Kid, and he says he finished making a Pencil Eraser.

...

SO YOU'RE TELLING ME I HAD TO WAIT AN ARBITRARY AMOUNT OF TIME FOR HIM TO BUILD THAT SO I CAN PROCEED. GOOD. VERY GOOD.



So now I can cross. I didn't take many pictures, but I got attacked by small UFOs that can somehow give me a cold, weird robots that can somehow give me a cold, MOVING TREES THAT FREAKING EXPLODE WHEN THEY DIE (Reminds me of Omega in Sonic Battle. INITIATING RECOVERY MODE) and well...

This crap is hard. Really hard. But I have time for a picture!



Cool.



This is a picture of me before being rushed by a bunch of UFOs and plants. Needless to say, I died and immediately came back to life because I'm the chosen one to save the world, of course. Then I came back and died again. I really suck at being the chosen one.



I also tried taking the bus to Threed to see if anything happened. Apparently the tunnel there is full of ghosts that don't let you through. I can go on feet, but I feel I really need Amp in the party to pull it off. So... yeah.

And to rub salt in the wound, Amp's dad passed by calling her name, looking for her. DARN IT AMP WHY CAN'T I SAVE YOU

...

This game would be a lot easier if the vendors told me what the items do before buying them... Like the seasonings, what do they even do...

[Harmless]

You can check stuff in your inventory just like in Undertale I think

[JSlayerXero]

But you see, in Undertale, the vendors tell you what items do before you even buy them.The seasonings are auto-applied to items you eat. Depending on how well they work together, you might get better results from your items. Also, apparently this can let you re-use Rock Candies. I have no idea either. Also, trees, makes sure you skip through text so that they don't kill you.

[NanTheDark]

Yeah, I have to buy things before knowing what they are...

And I did figure out to not let a random exploding tree kill me, thanks for the tip

[l.m]

I wanna play Earthbound some time

And I check this thread regularly

So I'd like to ask you guys to uh, not spoil anything? I dunno, put it in Spoiler tags or anything. Or not.

[Oranjui]

Also, image loading times can get a little painful without spoilers

[NanTheDark]

Oh... whoops. Didn't think of that.

In the future I'll spoiler my Earthbound stuff.

[NanTheDark]

Well, played more Earthbound.

Just for you, Frozen: show

This time I managed to reach the end of the valley. I have to say, the Slingshot sucks at actually hitting things...

I also got homesick during this, which was weird because I had just come from my house... but oh well. A call later and it was fixed.


This is it. I'm coming for you, Amp!

This place is full of... creepy religious people.



Apparently they believe they can bring peace to the world by... making everything blue. I like the color blue, but that's... quite ridiculous.


Also this store lets you take anything and pay whatever you want. I paid one dollar for an egg, but then I just got more for free. Burglin Park is a very bad influence kids.


Oh yeah, about that, er... *slingshot to the face*


Did they seriously paint a cow blue


So you're telling me this Mr. Carpainter (nice name, btw) wants a high priestess for his religion... and he picked a little girl. This guy has issues. Many issues.


THESE GUYS ARE DRESSED LIKE THE KKK BUT IN BLUE WHAT


So I entered their main building and it's like this. You have to talk to specific people to make them move out of the way, and sometimes they fight you. It's a bit annoying...


And then there's this guy. Little horned statue in the back doesn't look off at all.






And then a lightning strike...


And I got teleported to a random cornfield. Of course he would do that.

A random NPC tips me off as to where Amp is being held, so I go through a tunnel and reach this place.



I finally found you!







And so Amp gave me a Franklin Badge to avoid that cultist's dumb thunder attack. Awesome! There's no stopping us now, I'll just go get that key...


YOU???


YOU ARE THE ONE WHO KEEPS BOTHERING ME YOU JERK, GET OUT OF MY WAY


I KNEW YOU WERE A VILLAIN, I FREAKING KNOW, NOW COME HERE SO I CAN SMASH YOU!


DON'T RUN AWAY YOU ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ah whatever.

I used PK Dark and everyone died came back to normal. The end.
So I go back to the creepy church, get past all the KKK people, and reach this guy again.




You'll need more than a paintbrush to take me on.

Anyway, this fight was actually pretty easy. The guy use PSI Lifeup, some Thunder attacks that seem to always miss, and doesn't hit too hard. Also he ended up landing a thunder attack on me and getting hit himself because of my Franklin Badge. ggwp Carpainter. Now gimme that key.

He also mentions the statue behind him was corrupting him or something. Didn't I see a statue like that underground back in Onett, with that treasure hunter guy? I'll look into it later.


I know you just want to make my life hell, gtfo you big jerk.


THIS IS DEFINITELY ONE OF THE BEST QUOTES FROM ANY RPG EVER

Anyway, back to Amp.


This line actually kind of plucks at my heartstrings a little bit... Once when I showed a pic of me at that one thread, MP3 said I looked a lot like she imagined me to be like... Heh...


Well, your dad is worried, your mom doesn't seem to give a single damn you're gone. But yeah, a lot of kids miss you, including that creepy kid who has an adult's mind. Oh yeah and that crime lord. Why does a crime lord care about you more than your mom, I have no idea.


Yay you have psychic powers too

And so, Amp and her super duper awesome Teddy Bear join the party. Let's look at her stats.


LEVEL 1 WOW We're gonna have to work on your fighting abilities Amp, I'm Level 20 so there's some catching up to do I bet she'll level up fast though.

Also, having Amp in the party also gives me an extra inventory page. Which is quite awesome.

So yeah, next thing to do, check out that cave at the east of this village, then go back to Twoson, and maybe check on the Treasure Hunter guy at Onett. So now let's call my parents to save the game and all.


Oh, mom...
