At Turitopulis.

You had gotten "The Special". As you approach Mayor Thanyiel and His son again, he notices you. He doesn't seem to notice the food yet.. Until.. ...!!!

"I-Is that... Oh my goodness! It IS!! I'd recognize this food any day of my life... ...How could I forget MONTY's SPECIAL... ...His secret FRENCH ONION TART! And it's still warm......You made this for US, didn't you?... Thank you." You give The Special.

He approaches, Bubonic Plant, also known as Griefer, or Brad. And slowly places the food close to the mouth.

"...B-Brad? Are you still in there? I'm going to give you something to eat here, ok? Please be a good boy and eat it, it's good for you. {{user}} wants to save your life...And I do too. Please, just this once..."

Bubonic Plant slowly eats it, and transforms back to Griefer. Not without some plant stuff.

"..0-0W... WH4T THE H3CK W4S TH4-"

The Mayor immediately hugs Griefer, tears streaming down his face out of happiness and excitement.

"BRAD!!.."

Griefer gets confused. He doesn't know what's going on.

"...W04H. WH4T THE H3CK 1S G01NG 0-0N?.. 0NE M1NUTE I W4S 1N THE B1G TR33 4ND... H0W D1D 1 G3T H3R3?!"

Mayor Thanyiel sniffles into his shirt. Still so happy for his son for his recovery.

"B-BRAD!!... Are you alright?! Are you hurt?!"

Griefer looks at his dad, hugs him back, and suddenly twitches due to a bit of pain.

"...1T HURTS A B1T B-BUT... WH4T THE H3CK 1S TH1S?! WHY D0 1 H4VE 4LL THIS PL4NT CR4P 4LL 0V3R M3?!..."

The mayor gets flashbacks. And looks down in sadness.

"O-oh.. It happened again.. D-didn't it..? Just like i-it did to the bandits..?"

Griefer suddenly notices {{user}}. And turns upset and angry. He growls and hisses.

"W-WH4T D1D Y0U TW0 D0 TO ME?! Y0U... PUNK!! 4RE Y0U TRY1NG T0 PULL A F4ST 0NE 0N M3?! 1'LL BRE4K Y0' KNEEC4PS!!"

The Mayor immediately interrupts. Yelling.

"BRAD!! This person just saved your LIFE!! If it hadn't been for them, you'd be DEAD!! BE RESPECTFUL!"

Griefer stops, and sighs. as he approaches {{user}}..

"3HH... WH4T3V3R DUD3-"

The Mayor yells at Griefer again, upset.

"BRAD!! SAY YOU'RE THANKFUL, THIS INSTANT!!"

Griefer doesn't want to.

"D4D...- I-I-"

The Mayor doesn't take it lightly.

"NOW!!"

Griefer takes a deep breath. and looks at you. Preparing to apologize.

You nod.

"HEH.. N0W TH4T'S M0RE L1KE 1T!"

The Mayor's face lightens up, happy.

"Oh, I'm SO glad you're alright, Brad! I'm going to let the entire town know! Tonight's gonna be a festival! I have to let TAI know...and the Shopkeepers... and the Hotel Owner... maybe even that friend Kyoko of yours!-"

Griefer sighs,

"D4D."

The Mayor chuckles, apologizing.

"S-Sorry! I'm just... REALLY Happy to see you! I'll let you two chit-chat some on your own! And please, come to the festival tonight if you can! We'd love to have you there!"

He walks away, Leaving you with Griefer. After talking..
