I was just expecting a cheap MSPaint map, meself.

>If it feels like it's been here for a few days or more, shrug and add it to the cart.
>If not, leave it alone.
>Regardless, carry on homeward.

>Step Two point Five: Prepare to administer a poorman's kabonging.

>You equip the shovel and run to the direction of the voice.
>Standing in front of the door to Tear's room is a figure wearing a robe and headgear covering the face except for the eyes. The figure is short, about Tear's height, but you notice it wearing a belt of small knives across it's chest.

>You charge at the figure, raising the shovel to bring down on its head, but it deftly sidesteps behinds you and delivers a strangely powerful kick to your back, knocking you to the door.

>You have recovered, so you charge at the figure.
>Its eyes bug out more due to your mad screaming, and it runs away.
>By the time you reach the door, the figure is already gone.

>You end up at the clearing and see the figure sitting under a tree, hand on chest, breathing hard.
>It does not see you.

>You swing the shovel, but the figure bends backwards and dodges it.
>It jumps up into the branches of the tree above it while you recover from the swing.
>You shout to the figure.
>"Nuuuu, I failed again. I was doing stuff."

>Are the branches low enough we could theoretically whack them and knock him or her out of the tree? If so, go for it. If nothing else, maybe we can get the figure to leap away and brain itself on a branch.

>"Stuuuuuuff."
>You can hit the brach and maybe the feet, which now that you notice, are in very large shoes.
>You swing the shovel at the feet, but the figure swiftly jumps and dodges it before landing back in place.
