I'm sorry for the lack of updates, and the fact that this one will probably be of relatively low quality. Between Trek last week and a Renaissance Fair this week I haven't had much time when I've not been really tired. This one will be extra long to make up for it, so you get to enjoy even more bad writing! Yay!
"Crap. I've really done it this time. Oh, how am I going to get out of this..." You ask yourself, pacing in a circle and pulling out your hair. You've played Zelda and you know that the deeper you go into a dungeon the harder it gets, and a big key like this means that you've either just beaten a boss or one's coming up and, given your absolute lack of skill with your weapon, you're not confident that you can fight one, let alone the rest of the dungeon.
"Grahhh! I've had it with this stupid dungeon! I never asked to be thrust into an adventure!"
You quickly decide that when blinded by rage at your surroundings, the most rational course of action is to smash everything.
"Stupid dungeon!"
You put a few gashes in the walls.
"Stupid broken trapdoor!"
You cut down the rest of the broken ladder.
"Stupid dreams of being special!"
You throw the Silver Oboe against the wall, ripping a hole in a tapestry but failing to damage it.
"Stupid Bos-
You have to be careful with boss keys, so you gingerly slip the key into your bag.
-s Key!"
You smash the pedestal in lieu of the key.
"*huff huff*"
Calming down, you take a good look at the room.
The room is a good size, about 15x20 feet, and ripped tapestries and gashes line the walls. You sorrowfully look at the one you put the hole in. The broken pieces of the ladder sit at your feet, having narrowly missed your head, and your JC Pennies lay on the ground next to the Silver Oboe. You slowly pick them up, regretting that one of the coins broke in half. On one side of the room is a now-broken pedestal, and on the other side is a door covered in the chains of a lock on the other side.
Looking closely at one wall you see a song inscribed in deep notes, likely meant to be your prize for defeating whatever is behind that door, and quickly memorize it. Feeling somewhat more confident now that you're armed with a new song, you easily cut through the chains and pull the door open. Stepping through, you find yourself face to face with a Telethia.
"[insert less generic swear]!"
Learned an unknown song!

Try to figure out what the song does. Inb4 it's "You Will Know Our Names" or "Engage the Enemy", and it allows you to use Monado Arts with your Oboe somehow

Play the panpipes to try and stun it.

A person got a magic oboe and chakrams, and now they're fighting a giant magic dinosaur bird called a Telethia because they accidentally entered the dungeon backwards, and dungeons get harder as you go farther in. |

Battle Music"Well," you think to yourself. "This is it. The boss is a Telethia. I'm officially dead." You grab the Oboe and play the song. The Telethia graciously allows it. Much to no one's surprise but your own, the song turns out to be "You Will Remember Our Names". As you finish the song the Oboe shifts into a short sword centered around the instrument and a kanji you recognize as the one for Monado Buster appears behind you. Both of your weapons glow purple and you let out a groan. "Of course they would give me the effective weapon after the boss..." 2/3 commands completeThe fight begins. You narrowly avoid a swipe from the Telethia's tail and return it with a swing from the Monadoboe, doing 8 points of damage. You attempt to stun it, but it knocks you backwards, doing 5 damage. 3/3 commands completeRhiannon: 11/20 Telethia Boss: 67/75 (This may be a good time to start listing off random songs to try.)

What exactly is a Telethia? I guess I'll never know. Actually now I do and it's from Xenoblade, because everything is from Xenoblade. Play "Hot Cross Buns." |

"You know, he really does need to have more work ethic. It's almost been a month now."
"Grahhhhhgh"
"I couldn't agree more."
*ahem*
"Oh, we're on! Finally!"
Dodging a swipe from the Telethia's tail, you autoattack for seven damage and play "The Last Moment" in an attempt to summon Elluka Clockworker. As I know everything nothing about Evellious and a decent amount about Vocaloids, you instead summon Luka Megurine who sings a verse of "No Logic". This stuns the Telethia long enough for you to use Chakram Chuck for another eight damage.
The Telethia counters with a body slam that does ten damage to you, leaving you with only one health left. You retreat and play "Hot Cross Buns" calling forth, you guessed it, Hot Cross Buns. You eat them and regain a full fourteen health. You come back in the action and, in a complete lapse of judgment, play Zanza's Theme. Thankfully the almighty author allows this to simply summon a flaming papaya, not wanting this to become two bosses at once. It explodes on contact with the Telethia, dealing it five damage and you three.
Rhiannon: 12/20

Ah, don't you think it's wonderful how after running the CYOA just fine for a good while I start updating about once a month? No, me neither. I'm going to stop that now.
So, after a rousing involuntary nap, you decide that it's really about time to get this battle going again. Unfortunately, the Telethia decides the same thing and leads in with a surprise claw swipe for 9 damage. Seeing your health drop to 3 and the Telethia coming in for another attack, you quickly play the first healing song that comes to your mind. This just happens to be the Song of Healing.
Song Learned: Song of Healing
Heals all party members to full health and all enemies by 5% or bosses by 10.
Removes status effects from all targets.
Generally considered a last resort when other healing songs aren't available.
As you finish, you see a ruby light coming from the bottom of the Oboe. Quickly turning it over, you see that the design on the JC Penny(because that is the best name for it) has changed from a J superimposed on a C to a small etching of the Deku Mask. You decide to ponder on this later.
The surprise of being healed distracts the Telethia just long enough for you to grab it by the tail and throw it at a wall. Unfortunately you are not a short, male plumber in a red hat. You are an average sized female musician. The Telethia throws you into a wall instead for 5 arbitrary damage.
You briefly consider playing the Pueli Magi Madoka Magica theme and wishing the Telethia away, but decide that you really don't want to deal with Kyubei today and simply do a combo Chakram Chuck and Monadoboe Slash for 12 damage.
Rhiannon: 15/20
Telethia Boss : 45/75

Hit the Telethia with a roundhouse kick to the face, then slam your oboe on it.

Bash it upon the head to stun it, then stab it where it hurts.

Realize that you're Pegasus Tenma, and use the Pegasus Ryu Sei Ken on the Telethia.

Alright, it's time to step up this battle using your amazing terrible acrobatics skill.
First off, you quickly bash the Telethia on the head with your Oboe. This only does 2 damage, but it stuns it for long enough for you to "stab it where it hurts", dealing another 7. The Telethia responds with a blind swipe that barely misses, allowing you to run up it's arm kung-foo style and roundhouse kick it in the face for 5 damage. At least, that's what you would do if you weren't terrible at kung-foo. Instead you end up falling on your head and doing yourself 3 damage. Good job!
...
Too much sarcasm?
Oh well.
Anyway, you quickly recover and decide to just use your chakram, from a distance, for 6 damage.
Rhiannon: 12/20
Telethia Boss : 30/75
