When I played it. I was like: "Oh 25 minutes timer? This is super easy."
I rushed to the first mob, and after a hard fight I realized my situation and said: "This is not easy..."
Nearly 70% of my HP is gone and I only have 1 healing kit. I said to myself: "Reminds me of souls game... but with a timer..."
Afterward, I started running around aimlessly, in hopes of finding a path forward and back to the camp. I said: "Avoid the magitek? Shit..."
I got chased by a few, found the fuel first before anything else, and by chance found the broken magitek armor that needed fuel and a key. I hurled back to the fuel, after killing and looting corpses and thankfully finding a sack of seeds that gave me 5 minutes buff of HP generation. Despite being a slow HP generation, it IS an HP generation buff. Got the fuel back to the armor and started wreaking havoc upon the magitek armies of Garlemald: "UNLIMITED POWER!" was my reaction.
A graveyard of Magitek remained, with the broken legs of the armor still unrepaired. I had to make the unfortunate departure from my seat of power, and into the unknown. Into the wilds and back to the camp, or so I thought...
My experience in Eureka and Bozja taught me much.... If i was to avoid the magitek blocking the way between me and my destination... then i have to stick my head to the invisible wall and move while praying: "Please don't notice me..."
And notice me they did not, all thanks again to my experience in Eureka and Bozja.
Then I was surprised by the sight of a citizen. I said: "A citizen? In the middle of a tempered territory? In the middle of a post-apocalypse city? In the middle of a snow wasteland? IN FRONT OF THE TOWER OF NIGHTMARES?"
Said citizen, whom I saluted his bravery, led me to others whom I also saluted their bravery in the fight against the evil of the telephoroi. Engaged in what used to be a normal battle but to these folk, it would be an EPIC battle between good and evil. I almost forgot the timer. Which were 9 minutes remaining. I said: "I'm not going to make it in time..."
And before I realize... KAPOOM... an explosion throws me far away but not as far away as Hildibrand has experienced in his life. Nevertheless, I had 36 HP remaining and I said: "I have no spare medical kit and not sprint to run away from mobs..."
Giving up was an option that I didn't take. Nay, I will not give up. Nay I will not let them win. Nay, I will not accept defeat. NAAAAAYY!!!
If i could not walk by feet, then i shall walk by my hands, and pray to be not sighted by any hostile wildlife. And the duty was marked as complete.... Glorious victory attained!
In the end after all is said and done I said: "....."
"This was awesome..."
