An encounter to remember.
Lucas… Stop playing hide and seek and tell me where you are.
Damsel, now as Duffy, is searching for Lucas but to no avail.
Bloody hell, where are ye’ mate?
As Duffy continues searching for Lucas, she spots a new face; All Father entered MX’s world.
Shit, another bloke… I’ll stop for now.
Duffy reverts back to her first phase, Damsel and runs towards the castle of 2-1.
As she runs, she was spotted by All Father.
Would you look at that? An independent soul in this puny world. I will stop by and say hello to her.
Damsel whispers to herself
Great, he noticed me. Bloody hell, can’t I just be in peace for once?
Might as well “approach him”.
Damsel waited at the end goal and decapitated a Toad, making it a Super Mushroom. As she was doing this, All Father appeared behind her; He admired what she was doing and decided to speak.
Hello, Madame.
Damsel turned around and jumped a little, as All Father leaned towards her.
It’s quite a pleasure to finally meet you, in the flesh.
They call you Damsel, do they not?
All Father offers his hand, asking for a handshake.
You’d… be correct.
All Father chuckles to himself.
How unfortunate.
All father leans back.
Now, you may call me… Mario.
All Father makes a mushroom cane appear.
Why are you here, exactly?
Why am I here? You see, I came here to disturb that annoying pest named MX. I imagine you’re his newly found victim, correct?
Unfortunately, yes.
Damsel looks at All Father with a curious manner, like an exclamation mark appeared on her head.
Wait a minute, you know that bloke?
Yes, I do.
Impressive, do you know everything about him?
Correct, madam.
God damn…
Damsel was baffled by this information and her eyes sparkled, metaphorically.
So, you also know his weakness?
All Father raised an eyebrow at Damsel.
Why do you want to know, if I may know?
It’s… personal.
Whatever you say, madam.
Damsel grew quite irritated by this smirky nickname given by All Father.
Can you stop calling me that, I have a name.
Oh, and what might that be?
Damsel; or Duffy.
All Father looked curiously at Damsel.
Forgive me, I forgot.
No, you didn’t. You just wanted to give me a nickname, to poke fun at me.
Heh… You’re correct yet again, madam; Say, how about a deal?
A deal?
I help you and you make me get more information about you.
Damsel sighed, as she felt she was constricted to accept it.
Fine, I agree…
Great to hear, madam. This journey of ours will continue for many generations…
