GitS 15 - The Lost Soul
# The Lost Soul The next morning, they began the march again. Things went swimmingly for the first half-dozen rooms or so, until... "Ugh, another of _these_," Oro hissed, rolling his eyes, as he was greeted by the sight of a pair of walls ahead,...
GitS 11 - Guarding the Mountain
# Guarding the Mountain ## Supervisor Sarahi took a deep breath through her nose, appreciating the scent of flowers and clean water that seemed to radiate out from the doors of the lodge. She had always been impressed by how clean and refreshing the...
GitS 13 - Fourth (and Final) Foray
# Fourth (and Final) Foray ## Organa Incarnate It was the day after their anniversary (whoo, what a night _that_ had been!). Oro and Sarahi had decided to take the day off, figuring it would be exactly their luck to find a fight when they were still...
GitS 12 - Lessons and Planning
# Lessons and Plans Not quite two weeks later, their first paychecks came in. Plural. One for Sarahi, and one for Oro, in equal amounts, causing the pair's chins to drop. "Holy...! I thought we'd be splitting the bounty per head! Isn't that what the...
GitS 14 - New Siblings
# The New Siblings The rest of the day was a slow, nervous slog from one room to the next, each filled with monsters in a variety of flavors, or obvious-but-deadly traps. They crushed a crop of strange little carrots with limbs and teeth (they didn't...
Ghost in the Stones 7 - The Huntress

Guardians of the Mountain 3 - Ghost in the Cabin Pt. 1

GitS 18 - First Day of a New Life (Epilogue)
# First Day of a New Life (Epilogue) It was still early (relatively speaking) when Nayeli slipped out of bed and began getting dressed. She pulled on a modest button-down blouse and ankle-length skirt... neither of which had been worn before, to the...
GitS 16 - Escape!
# Escape! ## The Slime King He couldn't tell how long he'd slept, but Nayeli's knees were still under his head when he became aware of the world again. Opening his eyes slowly, the first thing to greet them was the Lioness' face, mouth hanging a...
Gits 17 - Curse Breaker
## Curse-breaker “_The fuck?!_" Oro blurted as soon as he could pull his face out of the dirt, rolling to his feet and whipping in the direction of the now non-existent gate, as though looking for a way to charge back inside. When he saw Nayeli lying...
