3rd Log
Today I played for about an hour and the spear enemies re-entered the game. The spear enemies are a source of constant stress and worry when it comes to Trico. (If he can reach them he'll eat them and if not they'll attack him until he's so upset that he takes being pet all over to calm down.) In a strange moment, I had to leave Trico behind to help him go forward. (He was very upset and whined loudly.) When trying to unlock the door that he couldn't get past, I woke up a bunch of spear guardians. The spear guardians ran out to where Trico was waiting and started to throw spears at him when he was defenseless on a ledge. When I was jumping to get to the next part, the scaffolding I was on started collapsing and I was going to fall. From this new vantage point Trico could see this and jumped to save me even though he knew that there was nowhere he could safety land (hence the defenseless perch and all the spears). He dug his claws into the a space in wall and held on. Then I could either pull out the spears in his back and risk us falling down or climb up his back past the spears and jump in hopes of open the gate he was hanging off of. I chose to risk falling and took the spears out first.
After we were both safe he asked for a pat and I gratefully gave it to him. I was extremely surprised when he jumped to save me at his expense. It's very weird to see him being uncooperative just because he's looking for a snack then looking worried while I'm about to fall. Then he proceeded to be fussy again because he was hungry. Understandable.
There are trico statues showing up and I have to wonder if tricos were once sacred.
