The Adventures of Gynaika at Strangetown via PerSePhone, Part 3

The Night Beast

Paradise Place

Gynaika woke up thinking of the Night Beast. She just has to get back to Deadtree and confront Annie.

As soon as Gynaika arrived at Deadtree, she proceeded to the Nighthowl Saloon to "unmask" Annie. Right in front of the people there, Annie transformed into the night beast. This happens to her when she gets very angry, which is often, given the type of customers of the saloon. Gynaika offered her some money so that she can take an anger management course to control her anger.

Gynaika then stepped out of the Nighthowl Saloon where she saw standing at the corner is Roland Calonzo (Hazel's ex-fiancee). He is selling the pamphlet of the Kine Society. Gynaika bought one and read the following Pillars of the Kine Society:

  • Always stay with the herd. The stray cow falls into the thicket.
  • Always keep your eyes on the cow in front of you. Attention yields obedience.
  • Always look to the future. The path behind you is strewn with manure.
  • Always be wary... the enemy tips the cow who sleeps.

With that, Gynaika runs to the Kine Dairy, ready to answer Rick Wong's questions. And she passed!

As soon as she enters the restricted room, she looked for Roberta's leg (which is near the animals' stable).

Afterwhich, she went to Sinjin Balani to pass his inspection. (There is a star beside the bookcase in the bedroom.)

Sinjin Balani required her: (a) to have the Bovinomicon, (b) learn the daily ritual, (c) gain the sponsorship of one of the Kine Society leaders.

Gynaika immediately went to the Kine Dairy's store and bought a Bovinomicon (behind the register is a star). Then, she approached Sara Starr to teach her how the daily ritual is performed. Sara Starr acts so high and mighty, she will only teach Gynaika the ritual is she gets into her good side. With this, Gynaika tries to befriend Sara.

There are four steps to the ritual: the Crown of Horns, the Sacred Cud, Lowing at the Moon, and Fertilizing the Field.

Gynaika further befriends Sara to gain sponsorship from her.

Equipped with the things that would surely pass Sinjin's inspection, Gynaika went back to Paradise Place to give the parts she found of Roberta to Isaac.

At the Rossum House, Gynaika gave to Isaac the parts of Roberta she was able to retrieve. It just confirmed that what Doctor Dominion is really after is Roberta's brain, which is comparable to several computers. She promised Isaac that she will not stop looking for Roberta's head.

She went back home at Espiritu Estate, for a good night's rest.

When Gynaika woke up, she came up with a plan. She would be staying at Deadtree until she gets accepted by the Kine Society for she has a feeling that this group has something to do with Doctor Dominion. She'll just go home if there's a need to pay the bills. Packing her things, she went to Deadtree.

Gynaika immediately went to the Kine Dairy and was able to perform her first Kine Ritual. She, then, approached Sinjin for his inspection. Gynaika passed!
