[X] Rest in gazebo

Aww, no more Yonic Mandala.

So, we're a red guy with a gun...we need a hat and to steal some armor. The Red Joker shall rise.
 
[X] Rest in gazebo.
-[X] While you're at it, see if you can get the swastikas off somehow. There has to be a way.
 
Chapter 0.3
You dust off one of the gazebo's long benches and lie down on it. The stone roof directly above you has mostly crumbled away, giving you a good look at the eerie night sky.

A red, holographic 'Aries' symbol is prominent, unmoving in the sky even though you suppose you've walked at least half a kilometer. The aries symbol is encircled, making it that much more prominent.

Looking closer, you see that the circle surrounding the symbol is made of many smaller symbols. Like the symbols on your gun, you can't read them.

In the distance, you can hear the sound of shrubbery and earth moving. You guess that it's probably the local fauna. You hope it's used to humans. Regardless, you mostly ignore it. You've never been one for animals, after all.

[] Follow the path forward

[X] Go toward the sound
-[X] be wary, keep your gun out, and assume that it is dangerous and hostile.
 
[x] Go toward the sound = what's the worst that could happen? lol
 
Chapter 0.4
You sit up and get off the stone bench. Dusting yourself off, you go into a crouch and sneak from tree to tree. You make sure you have your gun drawn. It doesn't look like it has any bullets, but it should be good for intimidation.

The broken stone path quickly disappears behind the cover of the trees, so it might take some effort to get back.

You make your way to a small clearing filled with bright red flowers. Years of watching anime have trained you to recognize the flower as lycoris, though you're not sure WHY they're so prolific in anime.

There is a robotic figure sitting in the center of the field of flowers. it's wearing a cloak that seems to be made of burlap.

The metal man looks relaxed, just lying in the field of lycoris with his hands behind his head. When you look closer, floating symbols appear on him, labelling him as "Sneak Shadow". You're not sure if he can see the letters too, but this seems to alarm him.

He sits up, guarded and draws a metal katana from his hip.

You've alerted Sneak Shadow.
