[ so you're shopping in familymart, 7-eleven, or don quijote! filling up your basket, cart or arms. a little red bird flits over to you with a hearty snack in his beak, be it one of these or one of these, whatever he's brought you seems tasty. he chirps at you encouragingly ]

[ treat yoself. ]

[ well, hunter is prepared for this. he's apparently been working on something. he looks even more tired than usual. ]

[ and why? because he's been working on this. oh boy. he's got sheets of paper everywhere (despite all the information being on the oculars), pins, and red strings, and looks just slightly unhinged as he gives a comprehensive explanation of the imugi and everything he knows about it. ]

[ which is a lot ]

--- And finally, if it has the power to control rifts, then it's even more dangerous than before. We need to keep our distance as we attack from long range. Any questions?

[ such as: when is the last time you sleep or ate, hunter? ]

[ so a bunch of mutant monkeys have gathered and try to swipe some unsuspecting civilian walking along the road -- but then hunter swoops in on his staff, hitting the ground. vines grow from it, restraining them. wao he almost looks cool ]

[ he addresses them, standing tall ]

Hello, monkeys. This should be relatively painless... as long as you do what I say.

[ they stare at him, or rather --- behind him, because out of nowhere, a campervan comes swerving along, smashing right into them..... and actually, hunter too! ]

[ he gets hit along with the monkeys and just goes flying. ]

---AAAH!

[ looks like team hunter's blasting off again..... ]

[ lightning's striking everywhere! maybe you're just looking for safety. maybe you're cornered by the mutated animals. maybe you're just catching a breather. ]

[ but in a flash of golden light, hunter's by your side -- riding in on his magic staff. he reaches his hand out ]

Grab on!

[ a whole new world plays in the bg-- ok not really ]

[ you know the drill ]
