The Fight Game's 2nd Return! (MAP EXPANSION!)

[EpicPhailure]

(Whoops, lost my senses of direction for that post :P)

The codfish nibbles at the locket, hoping that it's edible. Instead, the locket pops open, and a water spirit is released. It lets out a cry of happiness, and does a spiral in the water. 

I'm finally released from my prison! Thank you so much...er...you're a fish...damn it, I thought I could finally pass on my powers and ascend...hmm. That might not be a bad idea, actually.

The codfish merely glubs in response, without the slightest idea of what was happening.

The water spirit holds the frail codfish in her fluid palms, and begins to siphon her own life force into the codfish. The codfish felt its strength, as well as intelligence rising steadily...

As Walter concentrates, the Runes in the dirt glow brighter, and the Runes on the bow begin to glow. The Runes on the dirt change their glow from a Blue to a Red. [Walter loses 4mp] [Walter loses 5hp]

The water spirit waited for a few minutes as it poured its life energy into the codfish. Unfortunately, because of the codfish's frailty, it couldn't pour it all at once, or else it would outright die in the worst case scenario, and the water spirit forced to wait for another subject. She couldn't let this chance slip. However, at this rate, it would take at least a couple years, so the water spirit's patience grew to an end.

Screw this, I could probably find another subject if this little bugger dies anyways, she reasoned, and dramatically increased the speed of her outpourings.

The codfish rapidly increased in strength. Its brain gained complexity, and its fish muscles and bones grew. However, to make room for the internal organs, the fish was forced to abandon its form...it began to mutate into something more.

Athulil builds a base at the foot of the volcano.

3/3

Athulil looks at his finished base, a small cave that goes into the volcano, but not enough to get to the lava.

The codfish grew dramatically. It developed mighty arms and strong legs. Its fins stretched between its limbs and fingers and toes. Sharp rows of teeth adorned its great jaws. It took the features of a shark (previously one of its greatest fears), but was humanoid in figure (also previously one of its predators).

Almost...there..., the water spirit whispered, as her life force was nearly depleted. All that was left was her magical potential, and gave that over as well. However, the "codfish" wasn't very well versed in magic, so its natural resistance only accepted a fraction of the mana.

Athulil builds a simple door out of some rocks from the outer wall of the volcano. Athulil's skeletal hands are still filled with intense heat from the volcano, so he could meld the rocks together.

Damn, you're not a pipsqueak at all now, are you? the water spirit whispered. It was nearly time for its spirit to ascend. Make me proud...

The codfish-beast, seeing that its motherly figure was about to pass away, howled through the waters, sending other fish scurrying away. The howl echoed throughout the entire square of the map. Whatever that means.
