>>110330368>"Go on now drink up and tell us of your battle little gem, it must have been an epic feat to have laid you so low!" The giant boomed>Only to be interrupted by the statue, "Oy now, give the lad some space. At least let him drink first.""Battle, oh crud, the gems! I have to-"
>Steven tried to stand only to wince as his arm flared in pain again. A strong arm holding him down also aided in that as the statue shook his head.>"None of that now lad, you rest up a bit and we'll have you settled in right proper like. Now drink!""Uh, alright...who are you guys?"
>Steven took a small sip of the flagon and licked his lips, it tasted oddly sweet but invigorating. Skin prickling like having twenty Monstars all at once and his face felt warm.>"You say that you've never heard the tales of Bruggi The Brave and his cohort of companions!" The iron giant exclaimed sitting upright and if anything looked taller than before. >"Course not you daft fool we're not supposed to be exactly advertising our presence here in the first place innit?" The statue replied with another dull clang on the giant's knee.>"Pah! The war's been cold for millennia, plus we're stranded on this miserable rock for a while yet." Braggi grumbled gesturing to the statue the giant continued, "This here's Coarse, resident medic for our sorry lot, Socket if he ever shows back up is our tech wizard.">"Oh yeah, tell him all our secrets why don'tcha." Coarse said with a arch tone.>"Just because you're still sweet on that Pearl of their's don't mean-" "Wait, back up you guys know about the Crystal Gems? And the war? Who, What are you even?" Steven asked questions racing through his head.
>"Oh Titans above here we go..." Coarse muttered before walking over to a nearby cart and filling a drinking horn of all things up with that golden drink.>"HA! We're Titan-Forged lad, pure and true!"Really pulling on fumes here, but what you'd think thus far? Worth or Drop?
