After all of the party members logged back in and Bromy healed Jerry (who was patched back up by Bromy with the help of John) they waited on the shore for Pedecree to show up.

"XsuphicatR: I can't believe you had to stitch Jerry back together..."

"Bromy: It's your fault for leaving the reason for you to come here behind."

"Bonifacius: Alas, we have completed our mission! So, what are you planning to do now, Bromy?"

"Bromy: Guess I'll look for a new place to set up my shop, it'd take too long to fix this place up."

"JohnWillStab: Do you have a place in mind?"

"Bromy: Not sure yet..."

"Bonifacius: Tis a curse for us guildless people, anybody is allowed to destroy our buildings."

"JohnWillStab: I thought you guys were in a guild."

"Bonifacius: Our old guild has fallen apart a long time ago."

"Bromy: In any case, I'll be torching this island when I'm gone."

"JohnWillStab: Why?!"

"Bromy: I can't have my research leaked... besides, I'd make some enemies with what I've created."

Out of nowhere a ship manifested, at its wheel stood Pedecree.

"Pedecree: I'm back!"

"Bromy: Hey, dogmeat."

"Bonifacius: Greetings!"

"Pedecree: If it ain't Bromy the ripper...."

JohnWillStab stood there awkwardly.

"Bromy: Are you still mad about the goat?"

"Pedecree: YES I'M MAD ABOUT THE GOAT!"

"Bromy: I offered to fix it."

"Pedecree: You will not lay another finger on my goat!"

The party boarded the boat, as soon as the ship moved far enough from the island the forest erupted into flames, moments later, only charred soil remained.

"Pedecree: What was that about?!"

"Bromy: Purging evidence."

"Pedecree: WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN!?"

"Bromy: There was a reason for me to stay on this island, I can't risk letting something out."

"Pedecree: ...what did you do?"

"Bromy: On a scale of 1-10 how upset would you be if I told you I invented a self-replicating plague?"

"Pedecree: ..."

"JohnWillStab: Sorry to butt in here, but WHAT THE ACTUAL F*#K DID YOU JUST SAY!?."

"Bromy: Relax, corpse - I exploded the whole island, no way anything has survived..."

"Bonifacius: Indeed, nobody except us and Bromy set foot on that island!"

"Bromy: Exactly."

"XsuphicatR: Except for the hordes of undead that returned to the sea after the fight..."

"Bonifacius: ..."

"Pedecree: ..."

"JohnWillStab: Undead can't get sick right?"

"Bromy: ..."

"Bromy: They can carry diseases though..."

The whole party looked quietly to the island and hoped this was not foreshadowing.

Bromy played the shrug emote.

"Bromy: Oops..."

"Pedecree: OOPS IS NOT SUFFICIENT!"

The party made their way back to Highpar, the journey back was considerably quicker and smoother than the first one.

The ship was parked neatly at the coast before it suddenly disappeared causing everyone to fall down into the water.

"Pedecree: Right, I have to head to work, I'll see you guys around."

"JohnWillStab: Thanks for the lift!"

"Pedecree: Any time."

Pedecree logged off and left the four players (and Jerry) on the beach.

"XsuphicatR: Now then, if you'll excuse me - I'm going back to the Jerry forest..."

"JohnWillStab: Don't you need our help?"

"XsuphicatR: If I could laugh I would..."

"XsuphicatR: Actually, watch me, hahahahahaha..."

"XsuphicatR: You people caused me nothing but trouble..."

"Bonifacius: Fear not, you may contact us when next you need help!"

"JohnWillStab: Guess we'll see you around..."

XsuphicatR disappeared into the distance heading back towards the forest.

"JohnWillStab: ...I don't feel satisfied with how the Jerry thing wrapped up..."

"Bonifacius: What do you mean?"

"JohnWillStab: We spend like five chapters dealing with him and now XsuphicatR just walks away with him..."

"Bonifacius: I do indeed understand how thou feels, but I'm sure there is a good reason for us not to be able to see the end of this arc."

"Bromy: Are you people alright?"

A few hours later:

XsuphicatR was walking through the forest in Grimwood, he walked past various Jerry corpses until he came across an empty hole.

"XsuphicatR: Wait, wasn't there a Jerry in here..."

From behind Harry ran up and shanked Jerry, killing him instantly as he exclaimed: "Take that!"

Moments later he added: "Wait! Who are you, adventurer?!"

XsuphicatR proceeded to unleash months of sadistic violence upon Harry, so much so that I don't think I can go into further detail... like... I won't be allowed to post this on RoyalRoad if I do.

Back with the party at the beach a few hours earlier:

"JohnWillStab: ...huh..."

"Bonifacius: I guess that is indeed better than nothing..."

"JohnWillStab: Wait, we found the killer in the start?!"

"Bonifacius: I guess he was the one killing all the Jerrys before getting stuck in the hole."

"Bromy: I'm starting to get concerned about you people, did you see something I didn't? Can you see a flashback or something?"

"JohnWillStab: Nevermind that..."

"Bonifacius: Indeed, we have to resort to all types of comedy so as to remain funny."

"Bromy: ..."

"JohnWillStab: Anyway!"

"Bonifacius: ?"

"JohnWillStab: I was thinking... are you guys interested in starting a guild?"

"Bonifacius: ..."

"Bromy: ..."

"JohnWillStab: I'll take that as a no..."

"Bonifacius: It's not that, what made you so interested in the idea all of a sudden?"

"JohnWillStab: Well, I thought that since Bromy needed a new base, and building outside of guild territory is a bad idea, we could kill two birds with one stone!"

"Bromy: I could use some guild-protected land..."

"Bonifacius: plus building a base would allow us to delve deeper into crafting or even trading with the NPCs."

"JohnWillStab: Yeah! so what do you think?"

"Bonifacius: Are you sure you want to form a guild with a mad scientist and a not-so-great roleplayer?"

"JohnWillStab: You're asking a level 20 dagger-user, so yeah."

"JohnWillStab: Holy s#*t! I'm level 20!!!"

"Bonifacius: Have thou not noticed? Congratulations regardless!"

"Bromy: My research could attract some... unwanted attention..."

"JohnWillStab: I can live with that."

JohnWillStab played the shrug emote, he wasn't particularly close to Bromy, but he didn't dislike him and he was both a great healer and Bonifacius' friend.

"JohnWillStab: Plus I was hoping to invite crown and foxly."

"Bonifacius: We do need a minimum of five members!"

"Bromy: That still leaves one question... which region do we settle in?"

"JohnWillStab: Region?"

"Bonifacius: Every zone in the game is claimed by a guild with the exception of lawless zones. So for example, the entire top half of this continent is... or rather was, controlled by the JGuardians. The south-east part is controlled by the GreaterGuildAlliance, the south-west is a lawless zone."

"Bromy: I would suggest Karath, it's on the south-west."

"JohnWillStab: So a lawless region?"

"Bonifacius: Yes, but keeping the JGuardians off out backs isn't such a bad idea considering crown..."

"JohnWillStab: True."

"Bromy: Who is this crown anyway?"

"JohnWillStab: A cheater."

"Bromy: Ah, glad to see I'm not the only law-breaker."

"JohnWillStab: So...how do we make a guild?"

"Bonifacius: Just click the flag icon on the right of your screen and click "create a guild"."

"JohnWillStab: Ah, thanks!"

JohnWillStab had to select a name for his guild.

"JohnWillStab: What should we call it?"

"Bromy: Log Ho***on"

"JohnWillStab: I don't think we can do that..."

"Bonifacius: What about something simple? "The undead, roleplayer, cheater, scientist and a frogs guild.""

"JohnWillStab: Too long."

"Bromy: Sword A** Onl**e"

"JohnWillStab: Stop with the weeb names."

"Bonifacius: Tentacle goats guild?"

"JohnWillStab: No!"

"Bromy: Stop bringing that up!"

After a solid twenty more minutes of arguments and complaints, the guild was formed and invitations were sent to ♕ and XxFoxlyxX.

Crown opened the letter she received which read...

"Greetings ???, a player by the name JohnWillStab has sent you an invitation to their new guild by the name of 'Log Tentacle Frog Online' "

"♕:...what the f#*k did they do..."

She clicked "accept" and immediately moved onto the guild chat.

"♕: What the f#*k is wrong with you!? Why did you choose that tumour of a name?!"

"Bonifacius: Twas a compromise."

"JohnWillStab: Welcome to the guild!"

"♕: Don't "welcome to the guild" me, what drugs were you on to come up with that name?!"

"Bromy: I take it this is crown?"

"♕: Look at you guys! Making new friends! Would you like to know what I was doing?"

"JohnWillStab: Not really..."

"♕: I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF A RAID WHEN SUDDENLY I GET THE GARGLED LAST WORDS OF STEVEN HAWKING FOR A GUILD NAME!"

""Bonifacius: Tis good to see you too!"

XxFoxlyxX: Alright, who the f*#k came up with the name?"

Everyone let out a sigh.
