After a much-needed rest, Crave ventured out the doors of Slick's home and onward to find Qoaldin. Crave didn't have to worry about the Lycans as it was daytime and they didn't come out that much due to hiding their appearance. Crave was allowed to breathe, but he couldn't waste this opportunity. He went to the location where Slick had told him to. Slick informed him that although he wouldn't see anything when he arrived, he had to knock eight times and speak. So he knocked and spoke.

"The spider's way is wise and mysterious," Crave said. Red strings begin spinning and swirling before transforming into a door. He was aware that he would not enjoy what was about to take place. He pushed the door open, and there he saw nothing but a black void with a light that was barely bright. He turned back, but the door that gave him passage was no longer in sight. Crave felt an eery feeling like he was being hunted. All of a sudden, red webs started to feel down and four gigantic eyes stared down at the street performer.

"What do I have here?" Qoaldin said. Crave had never felt such extreme terror, he was trembling in his hands. His blood had turned cold, and the only thing he was grateful for was that he hadn't eaten anything, because otherwise, he would have puked in front of a spider god.

"Well, I'm listening," the spider god said so calmly, yet his tone had a bit of malice in it.

"I-I am Crave Dorman a-and I may want t-the Scarttling," Crave spoke, messing up his words now, fearing more than ever that his life could be taken from him. However, the spider god only chuckled, causing the ground to tremble slightly.

"Same as always, you humans need to ask for a dash of creativity, but I am a fair god, so no need to be trembling," Qoaldin said.

"So you'll give it to me?" Crave asked.

"Only if I get something back," Qoaldin said, making Crave's soul drop.

"W-what do you need?" Crave asked.

"Do you know anything about the Scorpion Goddess of Trickery?" Qoaldin questioned.

"Okay look, I could barely keep it together talking to you, so if I'm talking to another one, I promise you I will die," Crave said.

"Let me finish, She is trapped in an orb. Get that orb and bring it to me and I'll give you what you want." Qoaldin demanded

"How did she get trapped in an orb?" Crave asked.

"She was the type that never knew when to stop and she met her match," Qoaldin explained.

"And you're trying to save her?" Crave said. But those words angered the spider god. He dropped down, revealing his full form. A gigantic spider with blue-like gemstone eyes raged at him, His hairy large black legs wanting to stomp on him.

"Save her? Why would I save such I poisonous and untrustworthy pile of rot? I used to have such stunning white webs that gleamed like thousands of pearls and were made of the finest ivory; they were graceful and elegant until she did what she did to them. She fooled me into permanently staining my webs red, causing me to lose my white color. People used to call me for advice on how to live smoothly, but did you know how many doctors I gave advice to? But because of the red, you fear me. So get that orb and give it to me NOW!" Qoaldin raged, using the string to grab Crave, throwing him back into the real world. Crave sat. He needed to process everything that happened. He felt lucky that he was not dead, but he needed to get an orb, and he didn't know where it was or where to go. He thought Katty might be able to help. She had comprehensive knowledge of mystical beasts. If Slick is familiar with Qoaldin, he should be aware of the Scorpion Goddess.

"What are you doing," A voice snapped Crave out of his thoughts. He looked up and saw Stan.

"Stan? What are you doing here?" Crave said

"I was told you would be here, so I came to help you out," Stan explained.

"Why would you do that you know the Lycans will come from you," Crave said.

"I know you're scared for my safety, but I can handle the Lycans," Stan said.

"Sta-,"

"Look, we have a good half of the day left and I can fight Lycans if I need to, so let's not keep talking about the pros and cons of me being with them, and let's just get this over with," Stan said.

"Fine, you can come with me," Crave said

"Nice, now where are we going?" Stan asked.

"I don't even know the spider told me I needed to get a orb that contains a scorpion goddess in it," Crave said.

"So how will we get it?" Stan asked.

"I don't know-," A red string suddenly appeared out from Crave's chest and started to lead them towards the orbs

"I guess that is going to take us to the orb lets go," Stan said, smiling, walking towards the red string.
