Sheepy’s Journal: The Calm Before the Storm

[p]Hello General![/p][p]Sheepy here, reporting once again at the start of a brand new journey.[/p][p]It looked like peace was finally within reach for the Kingdom… but if my journalistic instincts have taught me anything, it’s that trouble never stays away for long! And sure enough, my Sheepy senses were right. Three demons broke loose and stole Wukong’s orbs, which puts us all in grave danger!
[/p][p][/p][p]As I set sail for Celestial Monkey Forest to meet (and interview, of course!) the new members of the Alliance who’ve joined us to face this threat, let me share everything I know about the quest ahead. [/p][p]First off, about where we’re heading… you may notice something strange. These “islands” aren’t really islands at all. If you look closely at the map, you’ll see that they are actually the humongous back of a giant Turtle. Wukong is good friends with it, so he’s allowed to settle on one of its peaks. But according to the Alliance’s intel, the demons who stole his orbs are far from welcome and have set up their sinister bases on the nearby islands. Rude![/p][p]And you know who else counts among Wukong’s good friends? Denas and Vez’nan! According to my sources (mostly overheard gossip), back in their youth, during their wild adventures through the Kingdom, they crossed paths with him and formed a bond that has lasted through the years. That may be why Wukong came straight to them for help in this time of need. King Denas won’t stop bragging about it.[/p][p]Oh look, we’re already approaching Celestial Monkey Forest! The shell looks even more enormous up close. I’ll be sure to bring you the Bamboo Masters interview next week![/p][p]Sheepy out!
