Big update today! When we left off, Jowy and Riou were planning their escape from the Mercenary Fortress.

We head up the stairs and Jowy sees two guards and comments on the fact that the front door is locked. But he has a plan.

What is he going to do with that?

Set something on fire. Go...Jowy...?

Then we rush up the other stairs and head out on to the balcony.

We climb down to our freedom.

Tbh I didn't hate being prisoner there. There wasn't much work and I had a place to live and sleep and eat. Plus Viktor amirite?

Jowy stops our escape to chat right in front of the place he just threw an oily fiery rag and that we are escaping from. He tells me that he thought about the night of the attack.

Danger is my middle name. Jowy says we should go back because Nanami must be worried sick. So first we head over to Ryube. There is a large crowd gathered.

There's a fire breather, a fortune teller, and a girl juggling knives. The knife juggler suddenly steps out center.

"Who, me?" Says the giant ? over Riou's head.

Riou really does have a cute face. Not in like the attractive cute way but in the puppy cute kind of way. She thinks its in the attractive way though

Eilie is not happy with this introduction and she scolds Bolgan, telling him to say it the way she taught him. So he introduces her as the magnificent knife-thrower Eilie.

That too.

Oh, well. That's just.... super.

I have what appears to be a watermelon on my head. Some kind of melon? Not sure. Anyways, I take Rina's advice and I don't move.

My head is still attached. We continue this cycle with several more fruit.

Some multicoloured pumpkin, bananas, and finally an apple. The whole audience sweat drops at the apple, but when she succeeds they all cheer greatly for a long time.
