Wow! Dragons are crazy, I'm glad I've never met one. Who eats their treasures?
[ He laughs, still catching the rest of his breath. The pause lasts a few seconds, where he decides not to talk about Shay's brother. He was about to continue the story, after all. ]
So we get our team recuperated, and start preparing to return to the Balmera. On the way there, we pick up a distress signal. We check it out because that's what Paladins do.
[ He looks off to the side and sneers, in stark contrast to the tone of the rest of his story. ]
They said their ship was damaged, so we agreed to help them out. I'm the team's mechanic, and none of it looked like normal damage. Everything about it was fishy. They ended up working for our enemies, abandoning my friend in space, and trying to steal his ship. We got him and the ship back, and it was... a frustrating time.
[ He sighs, and the disdain fades away. Back to the important story! ]
We reach the Balmera, and split up to chase out the Galra. I went to find Shay, since the Galra captured her when she helped us escape. It was a trap, meant to separate us from the rest of my group, but...
[ Hunk grins, and starts making grand gestures with his hands. ]
Shay communicates with the Balmera and has it open a way out for us. We're able to get her to safety and I can meet up with the rest of my team. But then...
[ His eyes go wide, and he looks scared and uncomfortable. ]
This thing drops out of the sky, and a monster breaks out of it. A giant metal thing with these long arms with eye-things that shot a ton of lasers! Our ancient alien space princess friend did an ancient planet-rejuvenating ritual using her own life force, and at the same time...
[ The wide-eyed discomfort shifts to wide-eyed surprise, with growing confidence. ]
My Lion gives me a bit of a push, telling me to put my Bayard into the holster-thingie. So we form Voltron, I do it, and my targeting systems start locking onto all of the laser cannons! When I pull the trigger, a giant shoulder-mounted cannon appears and takes out all those cannons! Then we punched it and knocked it over, and then the Balmera itself steps in and crystallizes the thing!
[ He takes a few deep breaths, and realizes he's shifted into a bit of a triumphant pose. ]
So that's... that's how we inspired a slave revolt and got out first victory against a millennia-old evil empire.
