Quests & Challenges

Down by the Riverside rewrite:

Friends and Stuff

Today we’re here excavating
Today we’re here for some information gold
Today we’re here for some artifacts
We’ll rediscover history when we find the ruins of old

We’ve got our Fire friends to light our lamps, it’s a bit dark down here
It’s a bit dark down here, it’s a bit dark down here
We’ve got our Shadow friends to lead the way, down through the tunnel paths
We’re gonna find some real cool stuff!

And to my left he’s got his pickaxe out
And to my right she’s got her shovel out

And so we’re gonna dig and dig and dig
And then we’re gonna dig and dig some more

And we’ll continue digging till at last
We dig out our relic of the past

Well, we’ve got our Ice friends to keep us cool
(Why?) It’s a bit stuffy here (Ah)
It’s a bit stuffy here, it’s a bit stuffy here
We’ve got our Wind friends to clear the dust
(Huh?) From all the dusty air
We’re gonna find some real cool stuff!

And I’m seeing a snapper pushing out soil
And I’m seeing a spiral brushing at slabs
And I’m seeing a wildclaw hacking at rocks
And I’m seeing a ridgeback fixing up tools
And I’m seeing a bogsneak bringing us lunch
And I’m seeing that this is pretty great.

Well, it looks like everyone’s helping out
(Yeah) To look for artifacts
To discover old things, to find out all the facts
We’ve got all our friends to excavate
(Woo-yeah) Down in this gnarly dig
We’re gonna find some real cool stuff!

Yep we’re a gonna find some real cool stuff
Yep we’re a gonna find some real cool stuff,
Yep we’re a gonna find some real cool stuff
Yep we’re a gonna find some real cool stuff,
Yep we’re a gonna find some real cool stuff
Yep we’re a gonna find some real cool stuff!

Nice, the first time I heard this song was a couple of weeks ago! Very cool.

Theme: Deep Within the Earth
Song: "London Calling" by The Clash

Earth is Calling
The earth is calling to dragons alike
The steady heartbeat of land, quite lifelike
The earth is calling out to the brave
Come on, come down, into the winding caves
Marchin' down into the Cairnstone Rest
The diggers ready to give their very best
Marchin' down through tunnels of earth and stone
Careful right there, don't trip on that bone

The heartbeat's steady, the dragons goin' in
Through the tunnels of rocks, the caves gettin' thin
Lookin' for riches, deep within the earth
The earth is calling, find out how much the gems are worth

(Earth is calling) to the diamonds and jewels
All the dragons diggin' hard, all filled with fuel
The earth is calling to come deeper down
Come hear the voices echoin' around
Digging and digging and searchin' for gems
So much bones through these caves, where did this problem stem?
An underground lake, all is peaceful here
Loud growls echo, or is it just my ears?

The heartbeat's steady, the dragons goin' in
Through the tunnels of rocks, the caves gettin' thin
Lookin' for riches, deep within the earth
The earth is calling, find out how much the gems are worth

The heartbeat's steady, the dragons goin' in
Through the tunnels of rocks, the caves gettin' thin
Lookin' for riches, deep within the earth
The earth is calling, find out how much the gems are worth

Now go, run!

(Earth is calling), led us to the wyrms!
Roars and snarls, Earthshaker, there's these skeletal worms!
(Earth is calling) while the beasts follow us
Holy Eleven, they're making a big fuss!
(Earth is calling)

Never knew there's skeletons in the caves caves caves

Only one dragon that could possibly answer this prompt, and now he has a theme song :D Maybe this'll give me a kick to finally write out his lore (Do I regret the abomination I made him? No, no I do not, not in the slightest)


Day 5: theme - deep within the earth

Down by the Riverside parody

The earth has plaque in columns built up
The earth has dust in all its veins
The earth has fungi near the ground up
That's why I'm living in the bedrock, to scrub up all its planes

I'm gonna clean up the tired earth, one cavern at a time,
one tunnel at a time, one cave at a time
I'm gonna clean up the tired earth, one fault line at a time
I'm gonna let it go no more

I ain't a gonna let it go no more,
I ain't a gonna let it go no more

I ain't a gonna let it go no more,
I ain't a gonna let it go no more

I ain't a gonna let it go no more,
I ain't a gonna let it go no more

Well, the earth is the biggest patient
(What?) any doctor could have (huh)
Any dentist could have, any healer could have
The earth's the most important patient
(Yeah?) any healer could have
I'm gonna let it go no more

I ain't a gonna let it go no more,
I ain't a gonna let it go no more
I ain't a gonna let it go no more,
I ain't a gonna let it go no more
I ain't a gonna let it go no more,
I ain't a gonna let it go no more

Well, the earth deserves the best condition
(What?) not litter piled up
Not splinters lying buried, not facepaint left to rot
The earth deserves pristine condition
One stratum at a time
I'm gonna scrub it down to bedrock

I ain't a gonna let it go no more,
I ain't a gonna let it go no more
I ain't a gonna let it go no more,
I ain't a gonna let it go no more
I ain't a gonna let it go no more,
I ain't a gonna let it go no more

Day 8 Rewrite: Born to be Noobs

Head out in the coli
Get our motors revving
Gonna drain some XP
From some Ragepuffs and Webwings
Yeah, we're still at lower levels
All flash, but no fighting prowess
Haven't gone past the Training Fields 'cause
We'd be beaten to a bloody mess

Pack a lot of potions
Use 'em on the first try
Drained all of our potions
It appears that we might die
Other dragons brave the Arena
Take the Portal like it ain't no sweat
We're too busy hunting and gathering
We're not down for that yet

We don't fight for our food
We were born, born to be noobs
We mess up and die
And kiss our tails goodbye

Born to be noobs
Born to be noobs

Slot all of your stones in
Put 'em in the wrong place
God I'm feeling stupid
I get socked right in the face
Yeah, we're still at lower levels
All flash, but no fighting prowess
Haven't gone past the Training Fields 'cause
We'd be beaten to a bloody mess

We don't fight for our food
We were born, born to be noobs
We mess up and die
And kiss our tails goodbye

Born to be noobs
Born to be noobs

Theme: Coliseum fight
Songs: Born to be Wild from Steppenwolf

Born for Battle
Trained by the very best
Till level twenty-five
Monsters at every stage
Yet I still have survived
I don't care 'bout my eye colour
My birth flight is Ice not Arcane
Fightin' through my way in the Mire
I am the Wartoad's bane

Unicorns and Shellions
Toridaes and Croakers
Plow my way through them
Wings with mud of colour ochre
I don't care 'bout my eye colour
My birth flight is Ice not Arcane
Fightin' through my way in the Mire
I am the Wartoad's bane

Got a grudge to settle
I was born, born for battle
Eliminatin'
Monsters; sent them runnnin'

Born for battle
Born for battle

Trained by the very best
Till level twenty-five
Monsters at every stage
Yet I still have survived
I don't care 'bout my eye colour
My birth flight is Ice not Arcane
Fightin' through my way in the Mire
I am the Wartoad's bane

Got a grudge to settle
I was born, born for battle
Eliminatin'
Monsters; sent them runnnin'

Born for battle
Born for battle

Day 6 - theme: coliseum fight

Born to be Wild parody

Fire up your bloodlust
Enter the Arena
This is where you triumph
Where everyone can see ya
Yeah warrior go make it happen
Take the field like you're champion
Prove yourself in gloried battle
Never be outdone

I like muscles burning
Perfect strike and counter
Bloody teeth that grin
And the feeling that I'm centered
Yeah warrior go make it happen
Take the field like you're champion
Prove yourself in gloried battle
Never be outdone

Filled with joy or with spite
We will rise, rise up to fight
Watch me rise so high
I'm never gonna die

Rise up to fight
Rise up to fight

Fire up your bloodlust
Enter the Arena
This is where you triumph
Where everyone can see ya
Yeah warrior go make it happen
Take the field like you're champion
Prove yourself in gloried battle
Never be outdone

Filled with joy or with spite
We will rise, rise up to fight
Watch me rise so high
I'm never gonna die

Rise up to fight
Rise up to fight

Born to be Wild rewrite, from the perspective of Kire. Yep, her name rhymes with the venue she's statted for, and nope, I didn't know this was going to be the case when I named her. Also, she hatched in my lair, so she's of the water element and is weak to half the mages in the Mire. Whoops. I trained her and her siblings up from 1-25 myself as my first L25 dragons, so I guess there wasn't a better option? Probably could have tried another venue though. Anyways, you need none of the above information to get the song. Thanks for reading?

Watch Me

Headin’ to the Mire
Training up exaltees
They watch from the sidelines
So it all comes down to me
Watch me, ‘cause I’ll wreck this battle
Three mages as a starter pack
Rally and scratch build up breath
Then I’ll really attack

Next one’s a bit tougher
My health’s a bit lower
Trainees have topped off
But I’ve got a stronger power
Watch me, ‘cause I’ll wreck this battle
Two Podids and a Shellion
Ambushing gives me all I need
‘Cause now it’s really on

Rally and it feels great
And then I eliminate
Then the breath returns
So look kids, watch and learn

Eliminate
Eliminate

Everything is greenpods
Everything is sappers
Some packs might be fierce, but
If you’re good it doesn’t matter
Watch me, ‘cause I’ll wreck this battle
Any psywurms or any cerdae
Wartoads or kamaitachi, ha
I can show you the way

Rally and it feels great
And then I eliminate
Then the breath returns
So look kids, watch and learn

Watch me, I’m a
Mire Flyer
