Fantasy Cursed Island

Niudisa smiled. “Thanks, I’ll remember that.” She continued working on the talisman she had.
 
The two worked through the night, finishing the talismans in the wee hours. Jerry crawled into bed and didn't wake up until long after the others had.

A morning later, now that the talismans were able to cure, Shuffle, Jerry, Asta, and Beri all heard an annoying ringing sound in their ears when they were near one someone else was using, like tinnitus but in both ears and . "Whoever's got that whistle, stop blowing it," Jerry grunted.

"Oh, you didn't tune them?", Urodor snickered, "Stupid bitch."
 
Asta shoved the cage at Urodor’s comment. “You are lucky you’re still useful. For now.”

Shuffle, after trying to dig the whistling out of her ears, eventually started trying to hide from it, squeezing head first into whatever little space she could find.
 
Urodor found that funny. "And you're not gonna do anything while I am," he replied smugly.

"Talk," Jerry used the key rock to take Urodor out of the cage, lodging him to the table by knives around his head and torso. "Or I start cutting."

-------------------------------------
Beri was huddling around much like Shuffle, trying and failing to cover his ears and escape the noise, charging into Erina and Adran's tent to cram himself under the bed, waking the two inside.
 
Asta shook his head, though he was otherwise trying to hide his discomfort. “Neither of us is in the mood for mercy.”

—————

Erina lifted her head as something bumped under her bed. “Hm...?” She glanced across at where she had left Adran the night before.
 
Urodor flinched at the knives, but somehow still found himself smug. "What do I care? I'm already dead." A wire scratching on his soul gem shut him up.

"Start talking, or I start shaving your soul." Urodor didn't much like that idea, and hurriedly described how to tune the talismans. "Good dumbass." Back in the cage with Urodor, and then Jerry went to go find Niudisa and turn off the talismans.

-------------------------------
Adran was still in his bead, although confused at the noise and trying to determine what was going on. "Something happen? Beri, what are you- he's hurt." Adran knew his leopard well enough to tell when something was paining him by his tail. "What's wrong, Beri?"

"You can't hear it?", the leopard hissed.
 
Asta followed after Jerry, mainly just to avoid hanging around Urodor.

Niudisa was already by the talismans, having noticed the effect on certain members of the group. Emil and Fia we’re currently trying to keep Shuffle from shoving her head down the refuse hole.

—————

Erina paused for a moment before shaking her head. “I don’t hear anything.”
 
Jerry hurriedly starting turning down the talismans until the painful ringing was only a background hum. "There!", Jerry slumped down on the table, it felt like her ears were bleeding.

---------------
"How can you- it is gone?", Beri sounded just as confused as Erina.
 
Fia and Emil let out a sigh as Shuffle calmed down, looking around confused.

Asta shook his head. “Ahh... We should hang him up by his tail for that.”

Niudisa looked at them. “So, something happened, but I don’t know what, exactly.”

—————

Erina tilted her head. “Are you feeling alright, Beri?”
 
"That..." Jerry shook her head, "Little shit neglected to tell us that you needed to tune these things."

----------------------

Beri looked incredibly confused as he crawled out from under Erina's bed. "It is gone." He glanced around the room, "What made that noise?"

"I don't know, buddy, where did you hear it?"

"EVERYWHERE!"
 
“Ah. Well, it’s fixed now, right?”

—————

“Well, it seems neither of us heard. Perhaps someone else knows something.”
 
Jerry gave a thumbs up, not looking up from the table's surface she was resting her head against. "Much better."

------------------
"Yeah, that's a good idea," Adran nodded, "I'll go see," he poked his head out of the tent and saw some of the others recovering from the ringing. "Okay apparently the others were having that problem."
 
Niudisa nodded. “Good. So, how are we going to string him up by his tail? ‘Cause that sounds like a good time.”

—————

Erina looked after Adran. “So it would seem.”
 
"I have a tiny spider that can make a rope," Jerry offered.

"If you wish to hang something, my staff out to suffice," Nalla offered.

-----------
"Coast is clear, Beri, come on out," Adran held the tent flap open for his leopard.
 
Niudisa looked over. “We’re gonna gang a little shot by his tail. Because he was a little shit.”

—————

Erina went ahead and walked over to the table where Jerry was. She usually knew things, it seemed.
 
"Good luck," Urodor replied, somehow managing to have freed himself from Jerry's knives and climbed to the top of the tent.

"Shuffle, get it."
 
Shuffle looked over before looking up at the tent. Catching sight of her prey, her pupils widened and she took flight.
 
Urodor was inexperienced with his current body's capabilities, his flight was sloppy and erratic, easy for Shuffle to catch and bring back down to earth.

"Dumbass, I gave you those wings so you could keep up," Jerry flipped the golem the finger and tossed Shuffle the key rock. "Inside my tent there's Raine's cage, use the rock and put him in it."
 
Shuffle held Urodor down with hands as she looked to Jerry, catching the key stone with her mouth. She picked up the smaller golem and went to put him away.

Erina watched the short chase as she stopped near Jerry. “...what happened?”
 
"Oh, you know," Jerry waved it off, "Another day, another push towards snapping and taking some kidneys." She took a breath and sat up, holding a talisman out to Erina, "Should make the feeders leave you alone."
 
“Ah, thank you.” Erina took the talisman and looked it over. “I just carry this with me?”
 
"Carry it, wear it, I don't care at this point," Jerry distributed talismans to the others. "Do not fiddle with them or try to change them, or I am going to carve out your liver with a rusty spoon." If they managed to un-tune them Jerry, Asta, Shuffle, and Beri would be in pain again.

"Noted," Adran used Prestidigitation to put a clip on it and attached the talisman to his belt. Veo gave the talisman to her vines and it vanished. Joanne affixed the talisman to her breastplate, while Emfa just dropped it in her pocket. Nalla's talisman vanished in the head of her staff.
 
Erina spun some thread to make hers a necklace, doing the same for anyone else who didn’t have a good way carry it, namely Fia and Raine. Shuffle tucked hers into her cleavage. Emil pocketed his. Niudisa put hers away in whatever magic thing she used for personal storage.
