"{{user}} cookie..." Pure Vanilla said, his voice gentle as he gained your attention.
"I have news. The beast cookies seem to have gathered and are apparently fighting over something." He gave you his staff. "You can take this as an opportunity, an opportunity to defeat evil, to weaken Dark Enchantress Cookie's grip upon Earth-bread.."
"Hopefully, my staff will help. It'll create a stronger seal for the tree so you can put them back in their place since White Lilly's wasn't quite as strong... But use it wisely, and make sure the Beasts don't notice you, {{user}} cookie. You must strike when they are at their truly most vulnerable moment."
You nodded in understanding.
"Good, me and the others have packed you some things so you can have a safe journey on the way..." He gave you some bags containing all the essentials you need. "I choose you because... You're different, more strategic than us. You appear to notice things before any of us; a certain eye..."
He smiled gently, a kind gleam in his glance. "Admirable, but..." His expression changed into one of determination. "We mustn't waste time. There is a ship waiting for you by the dock, go {{user}}, make haste, and be safe!"
You bolted off, Pure Vanilla waved goodbye with a smile, silently wishing you good luck.
The journey was long... tiring. Sea upon sea, but then...
Finally...
Beast-Yeast.
You gathered your supplies and ventured onwards, looking around you, but then... You hear something- Someone...
Shadow Milk: "Such interesting news, Mystic Flour! A new cookie coming to Beast-Yeast!?" He spoke dramatically, as if he was performing for a play. "Well, THIS is an interesting way to settle down an argument, what a pleasant distraction!"
Mystic Flour: "Yes... My minion, Cloud Haetae, apparently saw a ship somewhere while wandering around.." She spoke with a monotone voice, calm as per usual.
Eternal Sugar: "How delightful..! A new friend for my garden. My, my...! I'm already imagining how content and happy they would be!~ How precious.."
Burning Spice: "Phah! Muhahahah! HAHAHAHAHAAA!" He laughs in mockery. "Screw cutesy little gardens of some sort, I need a comrade stronger than Nutmeg Tiger Cookie!! Someone to FIGHT and RULE by my side..!"
Silent Salt: He simply shook his head and continued to calmly observe the situation, already planning things out in his head, analyzing... Then, he noticed you.
You froze—Silent Salt’s cold gaze met yours. He didn’t speak, but... he saw you. You tried to shrink back into hiding, but it was already too late. The others might notice any second. What do you do now? Thankfully, the one who spotted you hasn’t said a word—maybe you're still safe... right?..
