Chapter 1
Little Girl Begins
So, we start the game after running from lord Eric in Laria forest.
We have no money, no food, no weapons or armor.
What should we do now?
Ehm...
Umm...
Mmm?..
All right, let's go east.
Noldors.
Let's go west.
Jatu.
Let's just stay in one place and do nothing. I'm good at it.
Looks like that is one of Eric's friends. Hello, Lord Othon, how's it going? How's Eric?
Back, back you dirty ape! Don't you know she's already engaged?
Eventually we travel to Baccus Empire and immediately rush to the most exciting, risky and innovative part of the game:
We pick a letter to some D'Shar Khan and meet the Kadan Bahadur Khan's army en route to Torbah.
Imagine how it happens:
Spearman: Bahadur, there's an unknown lonely naked malnourished ugly woman
asking for your audience.
Kadan: Stop the army! Everyone, 50 paces back.
That's an important meeting I have.
What would you do in place of Great Khan?
a). Ignore the bum.
b). Give her a copper or two by compassion.
c). Greet her as a honorable person and ask her to collect taxes from your fief.
He chose c), and that makes me wonder how he got to power.
But that's my luck. Easy money for nothing, as I am not going to return it.
Did I say it loud? We need to get out of here...
I see many parties of different factions are attracted to my champion. Maybe she's so ugly that
Poor Little Girl, you live in a pipe dream walled from reality with your unbreakable stupidity.
Little Girl: Me no stupidity!
Yeah, yeah, I know... Just calm down and keep moving, we'll need to grab some shinies.
Torbah citizens aren't too happy about the taxes, so I easily cut them (taxes) by half to avoid hostilities. Maybe they would be even happier if they know that none of that money is actually going to their Khan?
We are lucky to meet Ansen and Adonja in the tavern.
Ansen is probably the best companion to get early in the game as he's altruistic, fast-learning and initially rather smart. He can learn important party skills to decent level in no time.
Adonja initially comes with important party skills like Path Finding. She also gets levels fast and can get 30 INT by endgame.
Our luck is not over. By the time we finish collecting taxes, Kaverra arrives.
Oh my Astraea, look at this...
No STR requirement...
I repeat it for Little Girl personally: no strength required. You can use it right now. And that is among the best polearms in the game. And you can use it. And no STR required. Got it now?
Polearm is a long stick with a knife attached to it. Attached means... just grab the damned weapon and shut up already!
After stripping her new companions Little Girl looks like this:
She also got 1 level from fighting with bandits. That means
There's a long way to go. But now we go to sleep
Say good night to the Little Girl!
In her dreams she whispers some name, but I can't recognize it.
