![]() "Ah, if it isn't Ness! What brings you up here at this time of the day, young man? Don't know that it's been pretty damn dangerous around here with that meteorite and the shtick?" He then saw Ness and his group in greater detail and his face brightened in recognition. Agerate at your service, bringing doom and gloom to all crazy-ass beings." The hermit exclaimed as he flexed his right arm while carrying his shovel in the other hand. Ness immediately recognized him as the old hermit of the Onett hills, Lier X. The man had wild, yet also strangely neat black hair, with a blue shirt and black pants, with a mix of black and white facial hair around his mouth. Ness and Porky, who stopped playing dead at this point, eyed their savior as the newcomer turned his gaze towards them. The crow got comically shot across the field like a baseball landing around ten feet away, never to rise again. The crow was startled by the sudden shout and slowly dipped below, leaving it exposed for a large SMACK from said shovel. Ness and his group was startled by a sudden shout as a large, middle-aged man burst into the scene, with a shovel in hand. ![]() Porky, as usual, was doing his best to avoid getting his hands dirty, this time attempting to "play dead". He tried to swing again, but the crow flew back again. The crow wised up and circled Ness's head, out of batting range, then flew towards Ness again. Ness grunted with pain as he braced himself for the crow to fly towards him again. Meanwhile, King growled and charged towards the crow, but the crow evaded his attack as well and flew up out of range of both Ness and King, cawing maniacally. He tried swinging the bat at the crow again, but the pain on his left arm was distracting to Ness, so he missed the crow. Ness gave a slight cry of pain as the crow made contact and swung his bat at the crow, but it flew away, evading the attack. However, this put him in harm's way for the crow to sneak up on him and peck on his body, scratching his left arm. ![]() He was ready for them, though, and promptly swung his bat at the incoming two snakes and put them down quite easily. Hissing and cawing, the wild animals charged towards Ness. Two coil snakes and a crow came out of the woods and noticed Ness and his party. Agerate's house, however, their next threat was quite a bit more dangerous. "I don't know, boy, but we're going to find Alex and get out here." Ness said, looking up towards the hill housing the meteor.Īs they made it up near Lier X. Ness kneeled down and petted the dog on his head, rubbing around the back of his ears. (These things are everywhere! I don't know how much of this I can take…) Ness heard King's thoughts, and just nodded in response. "But I have a feeling this isn't the end of it." At that, a stray dog just came out of another bush and leapt at Porky, but King intercepted the dog, tackling it to the ground and delivered a swipe and bite to the other dog. "You have any idea why these animals are attacking us now, of all times?" Porky asked Ness, almost clinging onto him. Thankfully, either one well-aimed swing from Ness's bat or a swipe from King was enough to drive away each enemy, though Porky made it a point to stay clear of any danger. In addition to coil snakes running around, there was also a stray dog attacking the group of three. The rest of the journey to the meteorite was no less eventful.
