1 Game, 1 Month 2!: Aftercore before Crimbo? (3)Re: 1 Game, 1 Month: The Quest to Ascend!

Day Three
I had a lot going on today, so no KoL for me 1 Game, 1 Month 2!: Aftercore before Crimbo? (4)
Day Four

[X] Attempt to make the Staff of the Black Kettle
The Staff of the Black Kettle looked interesting... but it requires dry noodles, which are fairly hard to come by. Just for fun, I switched to my Baby Gravy Fairy while going to the Kitchens, though it probably wouldn't make that much of a difference.
Now to the Kitchens:
Bounty

  • Lots of spatulas
  • Spices
  • Some Knob Mushrooms
  • Knob sausages
  • EVENTUALLY, some dry noodles

Olive lo mein was needed to upgrade this staff, so I needed to disguise myself as a hippie and purchase an olive.
Herbs + spices = Secret blend of herbs and spices + olives = olive stir-fry. However, I didn't have the skill needed to make the olive lo mein for the Staff.

[X] Create a Wand of Nagamar
I conjured my reagents for the day, then got my Superhuman Sarcasm. I ventured back to the Castle with about 6,000 meat on hand. After bumping into the Alphabet Giant, I took this opportunity to make my Wand of Nagamar, and an NG (just in case...)
I cashed on some of my Warm Subject Gift Certificates, now, and it was really cool! (like 1k meat or something...) I then cashed in more certificates and bought the Jabanero Saucesphere.

[X] Complete Castle in the Clouds in the Sky
I conjured 90 adventures of that buff, then went back to the castle and was able to turn that Wheel once more, and experimented... did I have the items to complete the castle map quest? And well, it turns out I did. Now for the marvelous intergalactic rowboat. I went back to the Council, and they gave me a fork.

[X] Start gathering Star items
If I remember correctly, you need around 20 stars and 20 lines... about.
After a couple adventures, I switched to a Hovering Sombrero for fun. After all, the Hole in the Sky isn't really that bad of a place to gain stats, and a heavy Hovering Sombrero is good for tower monsters.
After 8 stars and 7 lines I got item 1: Richard's Star Key
After 5 stars and 3 lines I got item 2: Star hat
(I also summoned my Bone Homie during this time)
After 6 stars and 5 lines I got item 3: Star staff

[X] Get a little bit of meat
I was a tad short on MP, so I took my Star Starfish and went up to the Castle again. The combined efforts of the Saucesphere, Wave of Sauce effect, and Star Starfish ensured I never ran out. My MP Pool was full once I was out of adventures. At the end, I had 2,803 meat.

[X] Visit the Daily Dungeon
Then I realized I had some pies left to eat, so I ate the pies I had left to eat, and went to the Daily Dungeon to get Jarlsberg's Key for the tower. Hey, speaking of pies, and keys... I failed to get a lime from the Fruit Golems, sadly... however, I did eat some of the pies that my Knob Goblin Organ Grinder had created and...

You gain a level!

[X] Level 11 reached!
And now it's time for a LONG quest... I visited the Black Forest, using up some serum.

[X] Get the blackbird.
Adventure 1: Sunken Eyes
Adventure 2: Black Market Map
Adventure 5: Broken Wings
I created the blackbird amazingly quickly, and wasted no time in discovering the Black Market. I also equipped the black somethings (the pants) because they actually are pretty good.

[X] Purchase the documents and paint, then vacation.
Seeing how I only had around 4,000 meat, I had to go back to the Castle (yes, again) to get 5k. I quickly bought the documents, but the paint... so it was back to the castle. Again. I used some white lightnings because I was going to vacation at the shore anyway so it wouldn't matter. I sold some crap equipment so I could vacation, then got the diary.

I took this opportunity to get some booze back at the Barrel full of Barrels, and now had about 13 adventures to start Spookyraven. Luckily, I had already unlocked Floor 2, so...

[X] Begin Spookyraven Manor!
Shortly after beginning the Bedroom quest, I received half of a memo. Hm...

[X] Screw that, fight the Butler Skeleton!
I went over to the Misspelled Cemetary with my serum active. There I managed to beat up Mr. Butler after 5 adventures, receiving my silver shrimp fork. Wait, why did I bother? Hm...

I adventured a bit more in the Bedroom, but found nothing for the quest.
Today's Analysis
+ Finished the Level 10 Quest
+ Got star items for the Tower
+ Made a Wand of Nagamar
+ Got Jarlsberg's Key
+ Hit Level 11
+ Got the diary
+ Beat up the butler

Overall, an excellent day by my standards. I hope to continue this awesome quest, and as always, thank you for the advice and please comment/give more advice!
I am looking forward to Day 5.
