She left Ben to get himself checked out while going off to do what she needed to. While she had finally been able to breathe a sigh of relief now that her friend was awake and out of danger, there was a new weight to bring her down, and it was waiting for her at home.

Ben felt himself slowly waking up for the first time in what felt like ages, but he didn’t open his eyes. His memory seemed blurry but his body felt good, like a massive weight had been lifted from him while at the same time he was freed from a terrible pain he couldn’t quite remember. He wan...

Hey everyone, I'm trying to give a few different options from last time. in the future I'll revisit some of the ones that don't get voted for in the polls (possibly soon depending on some various factors) but hopefully I'll be making new options fairly frequently.

As Ben got up a sight of chaos greeted him. At first, he thought a horde of different monsters had come to attack them, they were all so varied in shape and size, it was like the attack on stonewall all over again, but as he looked closer he found they all had distinct similarities.
Despite...

The rest of the day went on smoothly enough. Steph and Wedrow took turns opening gates for them to go through and each time they had to stop Will took him out to try and get the hammer wielder skill, though without the same luck he seemed to have for knife wielder.
