Underneath the Banana Grove, the Banana King examines the carved grid on the wall.
As was mentioned before, the "knight" on the carved grid is a banana symbol.
The other squares have scratches and patterns too, but he can't quite make them out...
He decides to use the carved grid to assist in a spell of summoning. He begins the banana dance...
At the end, he reaches forth and touches the banana symbol and calls forth a Banana Knight...
Leader + Axe + Banana + Magic Grid = 4
'As he touches the symbol, he loses his sense of time and space. His vision flashes from the Debris-Filled Room to the Banana Grove to being inside the Scythe and seeing Uries...then out in the Banana Grove, in a secluded spot where nobody is looking...where there is a Banana Knight! Then he can see the Scythe and then...
Banana King is very confused...dazed...he called the Knight...it is above, in the Grove. It was once Uries, an unmemorable individual, but now he has made him into a Banana Knight!
He looks something like an Aztec Jaguar or Eagle Knight...

But with a banana theme instead of a jaguar or eagle theme, and instead of the Aztec weapon he has the Banana Scythe, which now fits comfortably into his hand as though it were made for him.

Is affected by level 4 Enchantment of the Banana Knight
Inventory: Blessed Banana Scythe
Banana King knows that Uries, by accepting Banana Knighthood, has placed himself under the Banana King's magical influence. There is a sort of "chat room" effect that occurs...the Scythe, Banana King and Uries can all speak to one another telepathically while the Banana King touches the banana symbol and Uries holds the Scythe.
"Do you have a plan, Knight?" asks the Scythe. "There are things that must be done. Do you require guidance? Greetings to you, Banana King."
The young Singer man who was gathering bananas and putting them in the tent suddenly stops, cocks his head and then says...
"Who is singing? That's not one of us...it sounds like a song of the Burning Stars...and the Worm of Flowing Stone...in chorus...I don't understand what that means..."
There is an eerie glow to what little of the twilight sky can be seen from inside the wooden fort. It's a sort of unnatural feeling glow.
Mr_Phil feels a bit funny, as if he has been disconnected from reality for a short while.
He has been having bad dreams about chattering monkeys trying to mend a magic box and failing. (OOC: Luckily I'm back online now)
Lets make sure everyone is inside the tunnel.
Then it seems Anna needs some attention, if we can find a quiet moment.
After that, the tunnel needs investigating.
The tunnel is currently being explored. Anna will have to wait. The party's over now...the Singers are starting to pack up to move on, taking quite a large number of large bunches of bananas with them. They seem annoyed, confused but grateful for the rescue. They want to give some gifts before they go but nobody seems interested. Now that the sky is glowing they are willing to wait until this emergency is over before moving on, but they plan to move on.
A number of couples have formed. The women, as is customary, will remain with the husband's tribe. The Singers have picked some of the more athletic of the Banana Folk women, and their women are equally athletic.
There is a sudden brightening, and a roaring, but due to the walls of the shelter what exactly is happening cannot be seen. Then there is a FLASH! And a ROAR! And a shaking of the Earth...massive, flaming objects slam into the magical fort, causing it to smoulder and crack under the onslaught. It doesn't take long for everyone to go into the tunnel except for a few male Singers who begin a ritual to protect the Striped Tent.
The Debris-Filled Room and the tunnel leading to it are crammed full with people. Banana Phil sees Anna and helps her limp over to where he is.
The people are of course terrified now, but almost certainly safe.
