You approach the edge of the lake and take a look around - there's not much here, just a small handwritten sign that says ‘Araf Llyn Gwasanaeth Croeso’ - must be the name of the lake or something. Or it could be a warning. Either way, you continue on. You sheepishly look around to check that no-one is looking, then take your clothes off to give them a good wash. You mum was always harking on about washing clothes well, but then everyone did call her a scrubber. You strip down to your rather dashing beige/brown y-fronts and bend down to give yourself and your clothes a damn good scrubbing. Before you can dip your hands into the enticing blue waters, they begin to part in front of you and through the misty darkness you can see a figure emerging from the depths. Without as much as a hello, good morning or some such greeting, you are on your knees, in your pants and face to face with the legendary mistress of the waters, the much-talked about (and salivated about) Piggymon, the Wonderfully Wicked Welsh Witch of the West Waters. Woah.

Entranced by her diminutive frame, you blurt out a series of nonsensical syllables that almost represent the English language, but stop several steps short of something that can be understood. Your brain has been reduced to a soft jelly-like substance – while you are powerless to resist, she utters some strange moon-language at you. “Bore da! Mae’r te ma’n ofnadwy” she purrs, “Ty bach?” An uncomfortable silence embraces the two of you. You struggle to comprehend what she just asked you. You have to say something. What do you say?

A) “Yes”
B) “No”
C) “Slightly itchy, but it’s clearing up now”
D) “Rhyw?”

[EDIT] The adventure continues after I get some food... Back soon.

D damnit! We've seen Piggymon, D is most definately foremost on our minds! (If my GCSE Full Course Welsh serves me correctly).

Someone better RTM this and get it archived when it's done!

THE QUEST CONTINUES...

“Rhyw?” you say confidently. Several seconds pass, and then things begin to happen. The sky darkens, the previously calm waters of the lake turn as black as night and as choppy as Doom3 on a 386. A look of pure anger slides into place on the maiden's face, her features growing twisted with rage. I think you've said something to upset her. Slowly, she ratchets back her hand into an arched pose, ready to deliver an almighty Piggy Slap™ to your head. With a deafening crack, she lets rip (not like that, you filthy-minded fools) and delivers a punishing blow to your noggin, sending it sideways at a fair old pace. Unfortunately for you, your body does not follow suit, and parts company with your body on the spot. You die an instant death. Fool.

“Slightly itchy, but it’s clearing up now”, you say, eagerly expecting something to happen. Unfortunately, nothing does. She turns her back on you, and begins to softly glide down into the murkey depths from which she came. Just as she disappears into the water, she nonchalantly tosses you a fearsome looking stick, about 2 feet long with a very pointy end. You're not entirely sure what it's for (and given what you said, you hope it's not for that), but no doubt we'll find out later, eh?

You confidently stroll away from the lake, with a freshly laundered set of clothes and a spring in your step. As you merrily walk along, the trees part and you catch a fleeting glimpse of the castle on the big nasty hill where the evil Lord Gilly lives - it's a terrible, gothic-looking building, with ornate spires, hideous gargoyles and millions of old, rotting footballs in the gutters - think Count Duckula's castle, just with more menace. This must be the place that all the balls go when they get lost on roofs, up trees and when they get kicked onto motorways. You instantly know you have to enter the castle at all costs. But how to get there?

A) Take the sneaky-but-perilous back entrance
B) Walk up to the front door
C) Say 'sod it', return to your house and never embark on a stupid quest again

Always a fan of the 'tradesmans entrance', you opt for the ninja-styled sneak attack. You reach the outer walls of the castle compound, unsure of whether the signs that said "Warning: Grounds patrolled by dogs that shoot bees from their mouths" was just a bluff or for real. Nevertheless, once you've made a decision, you never go back on it, so you've got to continue on. It takes a few minutes for you to work your way around to the back of the grounds, but a few more to find where to gain entrance. Eventually, you find a moss-covered door set into the grand walls.

You push open the iron-clad door, and it gives way with a shrieking wail, reminiscent of a very 'vocal' girlfriend you had once. Your brief trip back in the misty memories of long ago is soon interrupted, however, by a incessant buzzing sound. A familiar sound. A bit like bees. Like bees. BEES!

You quickly turn around, to be met by a sight that would chill the bones of even the sturdiest pirate - big, burly Rottweiler dogs, releasing more and more deadly bees with every soundless bark. A great column of bees now headed your way are travelling at speed, and on a collision course. You desparately try to close the door, but it seems to have seized open! Just as all hope seems lost, you are grabbed from behind and thrown 20 metres into the castle. The door is slammed shut by some unseen force. What could have done this? And why? You try to adjust your vision to the darkness of your new surroundings, but your eyes won’t work properly. You see a short figure approaching your position? What do you do?

A) Wait to see who it is
B) Scramble away on all fours

Suddenly, with a burst of previously-unseen confidence, you decide to let the mysterious being come into the light. As it approaches, you see small, fur-covered boots. Then, as he approaches (you can tell by the impressive beard) you, you notice he seems quite friendly…

“Ey up, lad. I’m Jono, Dwarf of the Dales, Quixotic the Exotic, commander of the bees and loads else. You trying to break in here or summert?”

You assure the diminutive yet powerful fellow that you were only trying to deliver the local free paper, and got lost on the way. He seems perplexed, as if he didn’t understand what you just said. He roughly grabs you by the collar and throws you another 20 metres down the hallway. Then he does it again. And again, and again. I think you made him angry. You are thrown once more, and your back crashes painfully into the bottom step of a set of stairs – the angry dwarf looks at you, and lifts his head momentarily – he wants you to climb the stairs. After 10 long minutes of stair-climbing, you reach the top, where the irritable dwarf kicks you in the shins, and drags you off to a cell. This must be the castle’s prison, where they incarcerate those who are banished from the streets of Enchantia. You look around your new surroundings, and see the pale faces of the notorious few who have outstayed their welcome: Yoshitsune cowers in the corner, chalking words on the wall, while Emzay stands naked in the corner, ever hopeful that someone will take notice. The rest are a pitiful bunch, ranging from self-proclaimed super-intelligent egomaniacs to mad old Welshmen. And now you’ve joined their ranks.

You begin for formulate a plan. But what plan?

A) Resign to your fate, crouch down in the corner and slowly rock back and forth until you die
B) Use the pointy stick Piggymon gave you to cause havoc
C) Start a conversation with one of your inmates
