G This thing seems strong enough that a fight is probably not even remotely fair, still no reason not to try to find out more about it.

Vote Counted. A = 57% with majority being Plan Steve or similar. Plan Steve posted:"With the promise that we will engage it on the way back. We know now that it isn't going to go anywhere, and if we kill it, we would have to haul all of its treasure with us as we head to giant town. Best to swing by on the way home, plus we may have a better strategy by then."

I wonder if it will grow a two new heads, one with a new power, if we manage to cut one of its heads off?

I bet the Balls are going to be psyched when we not only back out of fighting this thing, but spring on them that we're not even planning to fight the giants; merely parlay. This was our chance to appease their monster-hunting. Uriah is going to go apeshit.

Don't worry, I speak Bularin. He's saying that in the dream, we weren't roleplaying as Enkidel because Enkidel explicitly saw nothing wrong with it., We did, but dream-logic doesn't seem weird to dreamers. Which is bullshit because lucid dreaming is a thing, entirely because people *can* notice the illogic of dreams sometimes, but that's what he's saying.

And even if it was, this is still something different. It's unique, something the scorpions are not, and it shows signs of intelligence. Regardless. You think this is bad, imagine if we tried to learn to talk to that minotaur we captured and brought to Baitel.

It really baffles me that people are voting to leave this dude alone because "art" Honestly if you appreciate this murder art so much then why not vote to imprison the fucker and keep him in our (inevitable) palace garden? He could be a cool watchdog slash decorator.... Still a monster tho

I just want to go to Giant Land. That really shouldn't be that hard. We are going on a cross country road trip vacation with our Balls, and we are going to have the best time ever once we make it to Giant Land. They are going to have roller coasters and water slides and cotton candy and just everything we could ever desire. However we are never going to make it to Giant Land because we keep stopping at every drat roadside attraction we see. Oh wow, world's largest ball of yarn? Sign me up! Blackbeard's Secret Pirate Cove? Ooooo we should stop there and take a picture! Pick up a souvenir hat. Eyes on the prize. That prize is Giant Land. Stop trying to sidetrack us by stopping to kick in every monster's face we pass.

I am just a very goal oriented person, and I would like Enkidel to be goal oriented as well. If he says he is going to see some giants, he will see some drat giants no matter what gets in the way. If Enkidel determines he will punch Smythos right in his face, then you bet Enkidel will punch Smythos roght in his smug loving face.

I have little confidence that the hydralisk would be willing to communicate with us, even if it were able. But supposing it WERE willing to communicate with us...it'd still have a hell of an uphill struggle to justify its living statuary. I mean, it might have been on the edge of acceptable if it just killed things that wandered into its home and then posed them into statutes for its own amusement. I mean, hell, we have a giant toad skull as home decor, we ain't really got much room to complain there. But the trouble is that we can still sense a living Presence in some of those statutes, and that I think makes peaceful co-existence...problematic.

If it can communicate we might get some cryptic statements out of it before we fight it. Better than nothing I suppose. We've talked to Bnaimokt and goblins, we've seen minotaurs kinda communicate, we're on our way to go investigate giants who might communicate. I expect the giants to fight us. I expect this thing to fight us. I don't expect fighting this thing to be a big obstacle to us going to Giantopolis because we'll just leave behind any loot we can't easily carry and come back for it later.

Sure there were rumors of Giant Land but no one really expected to find it. Their mission was to go looking for it but smash some monsters anyways for some loot and glory because who knows if they would even find it. This time we have concrete evidence Giant Land exists and are determined to enter into a dynastic marriage pact and/or exterminate Giant society. We have a much clearer goal this time. Sure, if a monster comes looking for trouble smash its face in buteverybody whining about us not killing the Hydra-Gorgon needs to realize this was never a Big Game Hunt. It was a Giant Marriage Extermination Vacation.

I have a hunch the reason we're running into a monster here the way to giant land is just so that we as players have some familiarity with our characters new buff status. We haven't actually taken Enkidel for a test drive yet since the time skip, and I feel like this is a useful way to gauge our strength before getting to giant land.

Taking an afternoon to kill this thing will not be the big deal that so many people are whinging about, I think.

I think Snarls would have told us if the Balls had fought anything on this scale. I got the impression that what the Balls had been killing was pretty much what we've been killing in the background of our own trip - wandering, easily-dispatched monsters like minotaurs and grove scorpions and other things well below our level by now.

I have a feeling this is some unique beast akin to the chimera we killed years ago. I really hate the idea of fighting it because its powers mean that any hit is pretty much an instakill for many of our men.
