featuring an unfortunate encounter with a VERY territorial clawitzer.
As the saying goes, what sounds easy and straightforward never is. It was simply meant to be a quick expedition off shore inside a relatively small sea cave. In fact, it was even open and airy, allowing for tons of room to move and breath. "It's basically like going to our own private little beach!" said Thadius at the time.
With that, it seemed like a nice getaway for a moment, given it was not only nearby, but all Thadius himself wanted to do was, at least to Perceus, look at some rocks. Sure it involved something like...researching the possible existence of more guardian golems outside of the regi's that...well at least, HE knew existed, but something so technical like that wasn't really important to him. It was a beach, so why not head there and relax for a bit?
Sure enough however...while it went alright for awhile after they arrived, it didn't take long for a rather pissed off clawitzer to show up, complaining about how they had, quote "messed up his beautiful rock garden and stamped all over his house." With no idea what happened, no idea how they even did so, and no way Thadius was leaving without finishing his research, a fight broke out quite quickly.
With a shout to Thadius, telling him to hurry and get behind him, Perceus readied his weapon, having been glad that he brought it with him just in case, the two got ready to square off against the pissed, albeit surprisingly strong little water type. As it charged a massive aura sphere, it was obvious this one wasn't looking to do anything other than beat their corpses into the ocean...
