[Is... is the smoke candy-scented, or was he losing his marbles?]

I question your sanity most times. No man would endure so many explosives at such close range and somehow remain wholly intact, yet... here you are, I suppose.

Regardless, you will not find anything to your liking on this vessel. I can offer you milk tea before you return to your ship, but I have my duties as security to return to posthaste.

[Even Plague Knight has some taste. That and who wants sulfur smelling bombs around them all the time?

He's also perfectly justified in questioning Plague's sanity.]

The fruits of my research have taught me exactly the range of each explosion. [No one has ever seen under his mask or robes, there may be a number of burns and scars hidden. Or the robes provided enough cover for most of the explosions.]

How can you be sure? [Stop being a shit, Plague.] nothing is stopping you from continuing your little patrol, hee!

[shovelrous]

...Have we ever had an encounter that didn't end in explosives and giggling on your end?

[thebiggertheboom]

You could have just stayed out of the Explodatorium? [You home invader. He'd have just stolen your essence while you were asleep. So much easier]

[shovelrous]

You and the Order strengthened the Enchantress. I did what I had to in opening paths barred to me in reaching the wretched Tower.

[thebiggertheboom]

Heh, the Order and I, and the Enchantress, don't really see eye-to-eye anymore. You didn't think the Tower collapsed on its own, did you. [He won't be a problem, Shovel Knight. Really!

Well, not for you.]

[shovelrous]

I'm accustomed to load-bearing treasures and their respective hiding places. You're saying it was an outside source that felled the Tower?

[thebiggertheboom]

I really wasn't seeing eye-to-eye with the Sorceress. And I didn't need the Serum Supernus... It was more volatile than initially thought. Mona and I must of made a mistake in our calculations.

[shovelrous]

[Fists clenched.]

Shield Knight and I had her handled.

[thebiggertheboom]

[Are you upset, Shovel Knight?]

Maybe you had the Sorceress handled but the Tower of Fate itself? [A little scoff.] Even you're not that strong, hee hee hee. Although I did enjoy watching you beat the Order.

[shovelrous]

[Ever since he'd woken up in the medbay, he couldn't get the events in the Tower out of his mind. In one moment he'd been speaking to Shield, but in the next, everything went black...

Had it collapsed with her inside? Certainly, he was now gazing upon the one who initiated the fall of the structure. But he also was gazing upon someone who had made it out and may know of everyone's fates.]

What happened as the Tower fell? Did everyone find their way out?

[thebiggertheboom]

Hm, a tower that large would take some time to collapse from the bottom up. I was focused on Mona but it should have been enough time for everyone to escape it. The Order made it out, so did Black Knight.

[Word would have gotten around if Shovel Knight had perished and he remembers hearing something about him.]

Heard you got out.

[shovelrous]

What of Shield Knight?
