Hello, and good day- I am Professor Turo for those who I have yet to meet.

This message is more for those of you that also visited Snaxburg Island and either had one of the creatures there follow you off of it, or may have... unfortunately eaten any of them.

[As he spoke, Turo's tone may have remained calm but there was a serious note to it. There did happen to be a Strabby perched on the desk behind him, a pink bow tied around it, which Turo did know was around but didn't know was there at the moment. There was, however, one he did know was going to be in frame.

Held very much like a hamburger he lifted up a BBQ Bunger so that googly eyes were facing the phone's camera.]


I do in fact mean those creatures like this- for those who might not have gone to the island, or even those who may need a reminder. These creatures that are known as Bugsnax are parasitic creatures that only have that nature turn into something dangerous upon being eaten. So again-

[After setting Chipotle the BBQ Bunger back down.]

Do not eat the Bugsnax, they are parasitic in nature upon being consumed.

If you have eaten any of the creatures found on Snaxburg Island, we may need to have a word or more. Please do get in touch.

[So Turo had rebelled and turned his master... to save his master's child and his master's country. Because his master was on the path to betraying his people.

Among the Moon Tribe, such a breach of filial piety would be looked down on, but not necessarily punished. Because if it was done to prevent one's master from betraying the Moon Tribe, then it could be seen as just punishment enacted on the master in question. Betrayal was the worst crime one could commit in the Moon Tribe. Not personal betrayals, those were family business. But betrayal of the people as whole.]


This venerable one is not the head of your family, nor are you sworn in service to him. So he cannot forgive for your personal crime against your master if his son has not chosen to do so. But this venerable one sees nothing to condemn you for within your confession.

If you make this ship and the people of it your people, so long as you do not betray us, then you belong. If you feel you must earn that place, then know that you have earned it and did so months ago. This venerable one will hear otherwise no longer so do not speak in such a way again.

[He raised an eyebrow.]

If you desire a means of proof to others, this venerable one will grant you a title within his court.

[Daqiang didn't personally see the need for such displays in this world, but Moon Tribe saw titles and positions as a reassurance of ability of the one who held it. If someone did not have an ability to maintain the title - such as having another challenge them for a position and win - then they were clearly not as capable as the other.]

It is. Though, this venerable acknowledges... that as he has no proper court in this world, the title would have little sway beyond showing your importance within the crew.

[He straightened his sleeves and made ready to leave now that Turo's uncertainty had been resolved.]

This venerable one will leave first. However, if you have further uncertainties, you should not feel you cannot bring them to this venerable one.

...and put a bell or something on that creature.
