The Shit-Town Saga: Chimera Part 4 The spike-strip launcher he brought from the Castle did its job.

Journey to the East part 2 Sun Wukong smiled, displaying large teeth. Strong, furry hands gripped the red and gold staff tightly. Opposable feet dug into loose soil with a steadfast readiness.

Vulnerable part 4 The wound couldn’t be fully stitched up. Even though Alam removed the bullet and began tending to the injury, as the boat got farther away from the island, he found it more and more difficult to stitch the flesh around the wound.
