╔═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╗

part i

╚═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╝

you are a warrior, training tirelessly with sir gilbert. he sees something special in you, which you have yet to find out..

“you’re getting better by the day.” sir gilbert smiled at you as you chopped off one of the tentacles of the phantom training dummy. sweat dripped down the fur of your back as you placed a paw over the fallen dummy’s eye.

“thanks,” you panted back. your tongue hung from your mouth, the way all wolves’ do in exhaustion. your usually sleek white-gray fur was matted from the sweat, but your tail wagged tirelessly.

“i think we’re all done with swordfighting for the day. come, my young warrior. as a soldier in jamaa’s army you won’t only need strength, but intelligence. time to test your mind, instead of your body.

sir gilbert hands you a piece of paper with a puzzle~~

if you got the answer right, advance to part ii.

if you want to take a break, advance to part vii.

if you got the answer wrong, advance to part viii.

╔═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╗

part ii

╚═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╝

your heart pounds as you tell sir gilbert your answer.

to your astonishment, he laughs and congratulates you. “that was correct! amazing work, young pupil, but you still have four tests left!”

you gulp. four tests? but you can’t give up, no. you look at the next paper he gives you.

if you got the answer right, advance to part iii.

if you want to take a break, advance to part vii.

if you got the answer wrong, advance to part viii.

╔═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╗

part iii

╚═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╝

“i’m done,” you say.

as you tell sir gilbert your answer, he claps you on the back. “two down, three more to go. think you can handle this?”

you nod, breathing slowly. you must calm your nerves before you embarrass yourself by dropping that next piece of paper he gave you.

if you got the answer right, advance to part iv.

if you want to take a break, advance to part vii.

if you got the answer wrong, advance to part viii.

╔═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╗

part iv

╚═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╝

you tell sir gilbert your answer~ and, to your astonishment, you are right.

only two more puzzles to go.

sir gilbert chuckled.

his laughing was starting to get annoying. but, of course, you didn’t say so.

“nice work! you’ve done really well so far. which is good, as i’m making this a daily part of your training.”

you gulp yet again. this was not at all going to be something to look forward to.

but one thing at a time. you took the next puzzle.

if you got the answer right, advance to part v.

if you want to take a break, advance to part vii.

if you got the answer wrong, advance to part viii.

╔═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╗

part v

╚═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╝

you tell sir gilbert your answer.

you are right.

one more puzzle.

cautiously, yet a tad excitedly, you take the last paper.

if you got the answer right, advance to part vi.

if you got the answer wrong, advance to part viii.

╔═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╗

part vi

╚═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╝

now fully excited, you tell sir gilbert your answer.

your heart soars as he smiles at you. “that’s correct! i see you’ve learned quickly, and learned well.”

“i’m excited to challenge you with more puzzles tomorrow. but now, it’s late, and you should get your rest.”

later in bed, you replay the scene in your mind, and smile to yourself.

you’d done it. you’d gotten all five puzzles right.

~the end~

╔═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╗

part vii

╚═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╝

your head is starting to throb, and you start to think you would’ve preferred to stay practicing swordfighting.

“could i maybe take a break?” you ask cautiously.

sir gilbert laughs. “of course, although i wouldn’t have expected this energy drain, after all that energy you get swordfighting.”

“you can come back here today if you want! i’ll only give you one puzzle, but it’ll be perhaps the hardest.” he winks at you.

you shrug as you exit the room.

but you itch to do something with your time. however hard the puzzle would be, perhaps returning to sir gilbert would be best..

if you want to take sir gilbert’s hard puzzle, advance to part ix.

if you want to return to your room, advance to part xii.

╔═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╗

part viii

╚═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╝

you try not to show your embarrassment at mes the puzzle.

“could i maybe try again?” you manage to say.

but you immedietly shut your mouth as sir gilbert laughs. “i think we’re good for today. you can try again tomorrow. maybe practice on that puzzle you failed.”

you feel a little embarrassed, but later in bed, you remind myself that it’s not the end.

there’s always a next time.

~the end~

╔═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╗

part ix

╚═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╝

you groan and return to sir gilbert.

he smiles as you reenter. “up for a challenge? here are four riddles. solving each correctly will prove you have a mind as strong as your body.

you wince as sir gilbert handed you another paper, this one with the riddles. this would be hard.

if you got the answer right, advance to part x.

if you got the answer wrong, advance to part xi.

╔═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╗

part x

╚═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╝

you tell sir gilbert your answers, stuttering.

your heart soars as he smiles at you. “that’s correct! i see you’ve learned quickly, and learned well.”

“i’m excited to challenge you with more puzzles tomorrow. but now, it’s late, and you should get your rest.”

later in bed, you replay the scene in your mind, and smile to yourself.

you’d done it. you’d gotten the four riddles right.

~the end~

╔═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╗

part xi

╚═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╝

shaking, you tell sir gilbert your answers.

he laughs. “good try! , these were the harder riddles. i’m proud of you for trying.”

“well now, it’s late, and you should get your rest.”

his laugh was definitely getting annoying.

but later in bed, you felt proud of yourself for trying the riddles.

~the end~

╔═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╗

part xii

╚═════ °❀•°✮°•❀° ═════╝

as you get to your room, you slump down in your bed.

your head throbs from thinking so hard, and you groan.

you have no regret in stopping to answer sir gilbert’s stupid puzzles.

but you also feel a little ashamed at having given up on puzzles, of all things, so easily.

~the end~
