Chaos erupted as the Sea God and the group began to fight. A jet of water blasted through one of the javelins from the labourers, managing to strike Jurot cleanly while the others dodged and ducked the beam of water. Another javelin struck across its side, with a set of darts striking against its underbelly, though they seemed to do very little as they bounced off. Jaygak held out her hand to blast the creature with fire, while Jurot pushed forward through the water, tossing his own javelins as he closed the distance.
Adam also marched forward, holding up his axe as he cast his spells, first casting a Hex upon the creature to cause its strength to wane, before blasting it with a Flame Bolt, which shot out from his axe and struck the creature’s side. Unfortunately, the Sea God was unlike most other creatures they had faced, and though they had dealt some damage, most of it was superficial.
The Goofs, hiding behind their wooden shields, watched as the group of tall figures marched towards the sea, ready and eager to face the creature. Vonda had remained behind, her lack of ranged attacks causing her to remain distant, hiding behind her own shield.

Adam, forgoing his original plan, decided to charge in. Jurot, Jaygak, and Kitool had done the same. It charged in to attack them with its maw, swallowing Kitool while she had leapt into the air, before it froze in place. Jurot, Jaygak, and Adam showered it with their attacks.
Adam called forth his magic, a scythe appearing above the creature’s still head, and he struck it with the magical scythe and Wraith, expending his magic for his Divine Smite. However, seeing that the creature was stunned, and that even his Divine Smite ability required less Mana, Adam decided to expend more, to make sure he did as much damage as he could for Kitool’s sake.
The creature remained frozen.
The pair of porters charged forward, striking the creature with their spears, while Jurot and Jaygak continued to assault it with their blades. Adam made to move, when Bell flashed gold.
Victory!

‘Nice.’
Jurot pried open its maw, allowing Kitool to step out, wet from its saliva. She quickly dunked herself into the sea, before stepping out towards the shocked Goofs. Some of them approached the Sea God, poking it with their spears, before they stared up at the large forms of Adam and his companions.
“Kitool, you’re so scary,” Adam whispered.
“Yes.”
“Good. I don’t want you to respond when it comes to trying to keep you alive. Kitool tempers Jaygak from doing anything too stupid, and you temper me from doing the same.”
Jaygak threw a glance back to Adam, having heard her name, and assumed he was speaking poorly of her. “What is it?”
“Wow! Jaygak! You’re so amazing with your fire!” Adam shouted towards her, before giving her a thumbs up.
‘...’ Jaygak returned back to butchering the Sea God.
Chaka Chi approached Adam and Vonda before they could continue their conversation. He held a longsword in hand, which was almost like a long staff within his hands. “Great one, you have assisted us in our time of need. Please, accept this gift.”
“Oh? A gift? For me?”
“Yes.”
“Why me?”
“We thought it would be best to gift it to you, since we continued to speak poorly of your appearance, though you cannot help it due to your condition.”
Adam glanced towards Vonda, before sighing. “Remember, Adam, Vonda’s still a Priest of Life.” Adam reached up to his amulet, rubbing it gently. “Thank you, Chaka Chi. I appreciate that you are so benevolent.”
“This blade was passed down through generations of our families. Scary Sword. Upon wielding the blade, if you slay three creatures of the sea, you will gain the ability to swim well, and the ability to hold one’s breath for a long while. Also, certain small creatures will adore you, and we thought it would be nice if something liked you.”
Adam blinked. “Yeah. Thanks.”
“We will hand to you whatever you wish from the carcass of the Sea God, including its heart and heartstone.”
“Yeah. Thanks.”
The sea nearby began to shift violently, while the Goofs stared out towards the breaking waves. A giant sea turtle broke through the surface, the water slipping off its shell, and it loomed over those who were butchering the Sea God.
Adam stood up, brushing himself off, as he reached for Strong Shield. “Welp, time to get to work.”
“Lord Biggu!” Chaka Chi shouted with delight, before the chorus of Lord Biggu’s name began to spread through the air by all the Goofs.
“Who?”
“Lord Biggu!” Chaka Chi rushed over towards the sea, before jabbering away at the giant sea turtle.
‘What kind of name is Lord Biggu?’
The creature's stats were pretty crazy. Lucky for us we have Kitool!
