...right, 5 feet wide.
What is preventing us from just walking past it?

Attemt to use the answer to the ultimate question of life, the Universe and everything to extinguish the fire. Else claim page.

How heat resistant are the mittens?

Then throw the chesire pendant at it, we can get another.

WR, we keep posting in the same minute.

Thick! I meant five feet thick!
I keep getting those words confused.

@WR: L33tz4n can only summon things to places she can see.

Before risking my life to cross the firewall again, I thought it would be nice to see what was behind it first. I mounted the one-way pogo stick and bounced up to about forty feet high, to where I could see over the thirty-foot-tall firewall. Firstly I noticed that the wall was about five feet thick, and secondly I saw that behind it was a very beautiful garden. The garden was divided into sections by a framework of pipes, which also served as an irrigation system. Ultra-violet lights where positioned over each section to substitute for sunlight, since the sun never shown on the Isle of Darkness. In the center of the garden was a flower bed raised to a slightly higher level than the rest. I couldn't see what kind of flowers were growing there, but they looked to be the focal point of the entire garden.
I took out the Cheshire Pendant and hurled it into the flames. To my surprise, the entire wall of fire vanished! I wanted to high-five Fooruman, but he was still on the ground, so I high-fived myself instead.

Tie rope to pogo stick and climb down on it. Wave your hand where the wall used to be, in case it just turned invisible.

Do what Araches suggested.

I tied my rope to the pogo stick and climbed back to the ground. After high-fiving Fooruman, I decided to wave my hand around in the place the fire had been burning. Interestingly enough, my hand burst into flames, just like the firewall was still there. It looked as though the pendant had only succeeded in making the firewall invisible.
While I was partially on fire, I thought it would be nice to humor Araches' request. I prepared to leap into the wall of flames, when suddenly...

__________________________________________________ ______________

After Faw had warped back, I decided it was time to put my wicked awesome plan into action!
I dashed out of the laundromat and faced the wall of fire. We engaged in a staring contest for a few minutes, but suddenly I got bored. It seemed like I had already done something similar to this ealier that day.

Time to test something. Pin the pendant to yourself, and see if you turn invisible.

HAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAAHAHHAA. And all this while I was reading about a death penalty discussion on #jj2.

...man.
That Cheshire cat thing was so random. But nevermind.
Right, go S, E, get another Cheshire cat. Go W, N, then E, into the laundormat. Throw Cheshire cat at Grandma's clothes. Grab clothes and casually walk out W out of the laundromat.

EDIT: One of the alien demon vampire's charms is...just wrong.

Be a man and (lightly) stab yourself with the Cheshire cat pin thing or whatever that was. Or just use it on yourself. I'm too lazy to verify whether it was a pin or not. >O

Also, whee! Alien Demon Vampires!

No, stab the clothes. >O
And Uberbob ALREADY pricked himself with the cat pin. He did not turn invisible.

I wrote that reply while you submitted yours. Meaning that I hadn't read your posts. And stuff.
Also, I think Uberbob just sort of poked the pin into his skin and didn't actually prick himself.. *shrugs*

...his skin is not himself?
We ARE going to steal Grandma's clothes, right?
So it's better to steal apparently 'nothing' rather than steal something while invisible because they'll notice clothes floating away in mid-air.

@WR: The game reloaded to the point before you tossed the pendant into the flames. You don't have to get another one.

I took out my nifty Cheshire Pendant and pinned it to my shirt. My shirt vanished instantly, though I still felt its warm cotton fibers embracing me.
"Wow!" I exclaimed. "Hot! Check it out, Araches, see what you've been missing?"
Araches gagged, probably out of admiration for my manly physique.
"Faw, take off your shirt," I commanded. "Let's see who has the best abs!"
Faw stared at me blankly. "No," he said at last. "It's freakin' cold."
"You just know I'm the sexiest," I said as I struck a few poses, just before getting set on fire by Araches.
After stopping, dropping and rolling I took off the pendant, causing my shirt to re-appear. I then STABBED myself with the needle. My skin turned invisible, and it was quite disturbing to behold.

Take out the needle. Go E. Tell Araches to distract the girl behind the counter with more questions about the garden. While they're talking, stab Grandma's clothes with the needle, take them, and go W.

EDIT: Hold on...

Hmmm... I don't feel needed anymore. My work is complete here.

*picks up backpack and walks quietly towards the horizon*

I read post #1654 and laughed so hard my whole family was looking at me. =D
Do what WR said.

I vote Dev to be DM forever...

1655? WR's? That's not THAT funny, really. =/

I vote Dev DM forever too

Don't worry. From what I know from Radium at the moment, he is likely to be DM for the rest of the game, except during battle segments.

..Is the Alien Demon Vampire's name Sam?

By funny, I'm sure Canti meant the 1-round-long battle post.

No, it looks like Rad forgot to change the description text for Unload Mana.

I meant the whole part where Uberbob stabs himself with the Cheshire pin...

Sorry WR.

... Sam is a common name among necromancers and Alien Demon Vampires.

I removed the needle from my skin, much to everyone's relief. "I have a plan," I told them. "Araches, distract the girl in the laundromat with questions while I steal Conquista's clothes."
"Alright," she replied. "I had some more questions for her anyway."
The two of us entered the laundromat yet again. Araches struck up a conversation with the Canadian girl at the counter while I stabbed Conquista's clothes with the Cheshire Pendant. They instantly turned invisible, so I tore them from the rack and slipped out of the building with them under my arm. Having safely made off with the goods, I removed the pin and put it back in my pocket. As I looked at her clothes, it became apparent that Conquista's most evil feature was indeed her fashion sense.
Araches came back out of the laundromat looking a tad disgruntled. "They wanted to set up a magical barrier around the garden... to keep bugs out," she explained. "How the heck did they plan to get back in again?!"

Inventory

I demand Radium starts a side plot, which will somehow be simultaneously played out with the real story, about the causes and effects of necromancers and alien demon vampires being commonly called Sam.

EDIT: Success! *victory dance*
Ask Araches about the exact kind of 'bug', if she knows.
Investigate Grandma's clothes.
Ooh, look for money inside the pockets. I'm sure Grandma will understand.

Equip Conquista-gear

I did a brief victory dance, then asked Araches, "What kind of bug?"
"How should I know?" she replied in her standard anti-Uberbobian tone.
I decided to investigate Grandma Conquista's clothes. They didn't seem particularly special until I read the tag on the collar.

Fruit of the Doom
Ladies Ultimate Evil Combat Suit
XXXXXXXXXXXXXL
Made from 100% Pure Evil
Resists goodness and morality
Safe to be worn around flaming battleaxes, fireballs, or Hellfishies
Not machine washable

There was no money in the pockets; for that matter, there were no pockets. I tried them on, but it was like wrapping a camping tent around myself.

Go South, and make FooCanoe carry the clothes.

I dropped Conquista's laundry into the FooCanoe. "Carry these for me," I commanded. It was nice giving orders to someone who couldn't talk back for a change.
Our party went South back to the town square. To the West was the arcade, to the South was the ice cliff, and to the East was the gift shop. Standing in the center of the crossroads was the same confused Canadian. I noticed that he was no longer carrying the rifle he had pointed at me ealier.

I'd go with the arcade, but I have decided not to join in yet... Only Radium knows the right time... *howls*

Ask Fooruman where we should go to return Conquista's laundry.

Hmm...
Go N again. Wrap Grandma's clothes around the whole party, and walk W, through the wall of fire.

Aww. You are so much better at puzzle solving then I am D=

Stick the pin in the clothes before you try walking through so you can see.

I noticed when I read it would work well with those fiery battle axes... ;P

Okay, okay, you got me... I joined, okay? Be very mad at me and yell at me, for now, I'm going to bed.

"Where should we go with Conquista's laundry?" I asked Fooruman.
The elderly wizard shrugged. "I suppose to wherever Conquista is," he replied.
"But we don't know where Conquista is."
"Oh. Well in that case, let's make it into a fort!"
As much as I liked that idea, there were more important matters at hand. I dragged the party back North and wrapped Conquista's enormous battlesuit around them. After stabbing the "tent" with the Cheshire Pendant to turn it invisible, the six of us fled West and right through the wall of fire. We emerged on the other side, completely unharmed.
We found ourselves standing in the Isle of Darkness botanical gardens. The irrigation system was running smoothly, covering the various herbs and flowers in a gentle mist. Overhead burned the ultraviolet lights that kept the plants alive and photosynthesizing. The remnants of a walkway around the garden could be seen beneath a heavy layer of vines. They had apparently been neglecting this place even before it became inaccessable. In the center of the garden was a stone fountain surrounded by an elevated flower bed containing several brightly-colored flora.
I was starting to get a cramp in my leg from all of this dramatic running.

Pick one of the brightly-colored flowers

Look closer at flowers and the fountain.
Where do the walkways lead to?
