Cheetahs Never Lose
Cheetahs Never Lose

Pushing through a more densely-wooded part of Whitey's Grove, you pause for a moment as you hear the howl of a coyote. Nothing to worry about, though. In one-on-one combat, you could take down a coyote no problem.

Now, cheetahs are another story.

Fortunately, this particular cheetah doesn't seem to have noticed you, busy as it is with the mutilated corpse of another adventurer. You sneak away from it quietly. You'll have to find some way to distract it if you want to get any further down this road.

Now, cheetahs are another story.

You freeze as the cheetah stalks up to you, and start to shriek when it starts tugging at your pants. Then it pulls the massive bag of catnip from your pocket.

A few minutes later, you're giggling inanely and climbing on the cheetah's back. This is either a really smart move, or by far the stupidest thing that you have either tried. With a shout of "Mush!" you're shooting down the road on the back of a sixty mile-per-hour cheetah, laughing like a maniac. Until a low-hanging branch hits you in the face, knocking you unconscious.

After a puzzling animated dream sequence, you wake up, further down the Road to the White Citadel than you've ever been.


Occurred on The Road to the White Citadel (Retired).

To coerce the cheetah into giving them a ride, they use some of the contents of their massive bag of marijuana. Harold is subsequently hit by a low branch and has a puzzling dream.
