Never let it be said that journies happen quickly. They sure as hell don't when you're having to go on journeys with a psuedo-giant that seems to be obsessed with wearing household furniture. Seriously? Why the hell did he continue to insist on wearing that thing around his waist like it was some sort of medal for being the most fashion-ignorant person in the whole eastern hemisphere!

On one of the few rare days where he wasn't accompanying his eight foot tall 'friend', he was having to move back to town for a small bit to get some more food for the camp. You would be amazed at how much they could eat, or perhaps not given the fact that they were having to move almost 18 hours in the day. 

Why they didn't just ride the damned carpet, considering how fast it had crossed an entire nation, was something that he didn't understand. He talked about his "lady" as if she was this great mage, and yet they avoided using the carpet as a means of transport to get there. 

Was there something that he didn't know? Well, of course there was, nobody is able to know everything, but you know what he meant. Was there something that he was unaware of that affected this decision? 

Either way, as he made his way through one of the foothills of the mountain, he got the feeling that someone, somewhere, was watching him. He hated that feeling, it always felt like someone was going to try and take advantage of him.

Whenever that happened... well, people started losing their legs, and then they screamed at him "oh god, oh god, what the hell did you do that for?" and he always had to explain that if they hadn't attacked him in the first place, they wouldn't be monopedal. It was kind of obvious, but they never saw it that way. They just kept screaming and screaming and... urgh, it was a whole issue.

The concept that people were watching him was so prevalent that as he walked through the pass, he couldn't help but glance behind himself a couple of times. Finally, on the third check, he spotted someone. A strange, mask-wearing bandit who was 'attempting' to sneak up behind him. It was pretty badly done, although that might just be his Fanalis senses coming into play. 

As he turned around, moving into a combat position, he heard a few whispers going around the pass. 

"He's seen us." 
"Well done, Zhi, you just had to go out and get yourself found didn't you"
"Oh, shut up, Mu. Like you'd have done better." 
"Considering the fact that I didn't get caught, I have to say that yes, yes I would have."
"Why are you always like this? You're so damned high and mighty that you can't ever let anything go, everything has to be perfect!"  

Dear god, the people that were going to try and mug him, and that was their clear intention considering the fact that they were wielding knives and trying to surround him, were bickering? 

They should have been too much in fear of what he had the capability to do to them than to bicker right now. Or, maybe they'd just never come face to face with a Fanalis before? Considering the racist nature of this country, it could either be that they were extremely over-confident or that they'd never seen his kind not in chains before. 

Either way, for now, he was just going to have to wait and watch as they approached him. He just needed them to get close enough... "Come on, you idiots, come on..." He whispered under his breath, growing more and more impatient with every passing second. 

How long would he have to wait for these fools to get to him? They didn't even need to get that close, just closer. If they didn't have bows strung over their back, they would have been quicker to come in. Archery made trapping idiots like these guys so much more difficult since they actively tried to keep out of range.

Finally, like a sign that he was being blessed by some all-knowing, all-seeing and all-powerful god, the idiots that had been ringing him were finally within range of one of his attacks. 

The attack was, to be fair, a little bit of a cheap shot. However, he didn't entirely care about cheap shots right now, he cared about getting these idiots out of his hair. A single slammed foot pressing down upon the ground, and the ground shook with unbelievable levels of energy, causing the entire thing to vibrate at high levels. 

Although the ground that he stood on was clear, the ground that the bandits had just moved onto was not able to say the same thing. 

As it fell apart through the vibrations, the sounds of surprised and anguished screams could be heard throughout the entire pass, leaving them to fall through the gap that he had juts created, and land face down on the bottom. 

They were, now, at the bottom of a pitfall trap, caught within a mound of the dirt that had, until a second ago, been the ground. Nobody moved, but a few groans escaped the people who were now caught within that little trick, showing quite clearly that they weren't dead.

Crouching down to look at the prey that he had caught in his trap, he physically winced as he saw the condition that some of them were in. 

Crushed bones underneath landslides of dirt, people who's face were pinned into it by fallen rocks, so many of them were in terrible condition to the degree where he would have actively tried to dig them out and get them help if they had not a mere moment ago been trying to kill him. 

"Are... you guys okay?" he asked, knowing the answer before they even said it, but that apparently didn't stop them answering.  
"I can't feel my legs..."
"Well, tough shit. Never jump a Fanalis when he's busy."
