[CC Command: Head Back to the Dungeon... Finally]<br/><br/>After assembling your party together, you tell Milo you want to return to the dungeon where you got the Dire Dogs, to try and save that last man the Minotaur was holding captive.<br/><br/>"What?... But..." She starts, before going silent. You can practically feel the smile spread across her face. "No. You're right. We need to save as many people as we can from these rats."<br/><br/>The dogs seem in agreement as well, though they're probably thinking that the human will be a meal for them... but that's a problem for after you've pulled the rescue off.<br/><br/>Before setting off, you lean over to give the female Dire Dog's fat a nice squeeze. She yelps in surprise, hopping away from you and letting out a low growl. The male stares at you surprise, while Milo lets out a sigh.<br/><br/>"Are you just going to be perverse with these beasts the whole time?"<br/><br/>Maybe.<br/><br/>To get to the dungeon, your group will have to pass through the underground courtyard, and back through the bathhouse. You ask Milo is there is any other route, but she shakes her head.<br/><br/>"Not that a human would be able to get through. We'll have to go straight back the way you came, or else risk getting stuck or lost."<br/><br/>Of course. Without any other options, you'll have to pass through the rat orgy again... Which you suppose isn't a completely terrible situation, but still, it is a dangerous one. Taking the lead, with your dogs on either side, you begin your trek back across the chamber dotted with the victims of Milo's curse. As you pass by a statue, you bring it up, and the mouse mage explains it to you a bit more.<br/><br/>"The crystal growth is triggered by the first orgasm one has after drinking from the enchanted water. Any further orgasms speed it up, and having sex with someone with the enchantment will infect you with it as well. Obviously, it spread among the rats very quickly."<br/><br/>... It's probably a good thing you're immune to the spell, then.<br/><br/>[???]<br/><br/>As you draw near to the entrance to the bathhouse, which Milo tells you is the personal spa of the Prince of Rats who enslaved her in the first place, a single rat suddenly staggers out. This one is male, and very clearly infected with the enchantment, as his fur is tipped blue, and glowing saliva drips from his mouth as he shambles mindlessly in no particular direction. Despite all this, he's incredibly well-endowed... This is the one fact you choose to whisper to Milo.<br/><br/>"W-well, that is a side effect of the spell." She stammers, and you know she's turned completely red just from her voice. "Don't get too close. They can still sense 'mates.'"<br/><br/>Completely ignoring said instruction, the male dog growls, and begins edging forward.<br/><br/>[Awaiting Input]
