IC 1: The Island of Rangi Motu
Frostbite snatched the antidote from the floor thanklessly. He wasted no time in getting the container open and stuck it close to his Dark Hunter ally. Disruptor sniffed the liquid once with wrinkled brow, uncertain of its effects, but quickly emptied the container in one gulp nonetheless. Like the physician had promised, she appeared immediately quickened by the mixture.
"It works, I think," she stated, rising to her full height whilst flexing her claws. Meanwhile the gates were already swinging open, courtesy of the Matoran guards manning them.
"Great, we're off then," said Frostbite dismissively and brushed past her, heading for the tunnel. "I don't know if we'll meet again, little Matoran, but mark my words: I will remember your faces in case we do."
Schemer said nothing. The De-Matoran was trying to shelter himself from judgemental eyes by staying behind his larger companions.
The three Dark Hunters and their Nektann companion wandered off into the westward tunnel, with the village guards watching them until they vanished from sight. The Matoran crowd could breathe a sigh of relief, and began dispersing to clean up the plaza and to resume their normal duties.
Once Lutorian, Tameku, and Velike were left alone with the Turaga and his closest assistants, the three Matoran were presented with two strongboxes. Each box had a round slotted key resting on top of its flat rectangular lid.
"Despite being strangers, you were willing to place yourselves in danger to save me and the other villagers. Please accept this as a token of our gratitude." Zuhras unlocked the strongboxes, revealing their contents. Inside the first was a large collection of widgets. Inside the other was an assortment of tools and items. "I hope this will be of use to you," finished Zuhras, and offered the strongboxes to the group with a gesture of his open hand.
You have received a reward.
Everyone
The Dark Hunters have left without the item they came for. Gain 2 XP!
Turaga Zuhras also rewards you with 300 widgets each, and one of the following items (individual choice):
- A finely crafted melee weapon. (+1 to attack rolls.)
- A sturdy shield. (+1 defense if you manage a check to defend.)
- A piece of armor. (+1 defense to the applicable area.)
- A tool such as a firestaff, heatstone, drill, collapsible pole/ladder, etc.
Current situation
With the Dark Hunters gone, you are free to do as you wish. The Makuta is quietly observing the village. The artifact is still down there in the mine, near his lab.
