What were you planning to do behind our backs?" they exclaim. "Look, JOKER, this doesn't make you stronger..." they all say in unison. [Today 11:20] ***JOKER***: Okay, but never turn your back on me... anything can happen... [Today 11:19] Medvaldo: Peace is always a good solution in these lands... It's better to save the armies for a more serious battle with the infidels. [Today 11:18] ***JOKER***: Peace? [Today 11:17] Medvaldo: The Devil is never late, so the necromancers will have a hard time... [Today 11:16] ***JOKER***: Medvaldo, it's too late, we sent you to the necromancers with Linea... [Today 11:15] Medvaldo: But that's not what happened. Medvaldo rises and, reciting a hellish mass, summons an army of demons from the underworld. Thus begins a new battle. To the glory of the Devil, and the legions of Pit Lords are already behind him. [Today 11:15] Linea: I'm getting the spellbook! [Today 11:14] Linea: So... [Today 11:14] Linea: I'll help you! [Today 11:14] Linea: You said you wouldn't touch me!!?? [Today 11:14] ***JOKER***: Only if they help me... [Today 11:13] ***JOKER***: Witnesses don't live long... [Today 11:12] Linea: And I will be a witness! [Today 11:12] ***JOKER***: [Today 11:11] Linea: Now Joker will make a new zombie! [Today 11:11] ***JOKER***: Let them run... they left me alone with you for nothing... I take out my necromancer's staff... [Today 11:10] Medvaldo: Everyone ran to the mage for the elixir. [Today 11:09] ***JOKER***: and again silence [Today 11:04] ***JOKER***: Happy belated!
