Glitter Gulch, circa 2007 • Glitter Gulch is in the heart of the Las Vegas downtown gambling district. It's home to Binion's Horseshoe, Fremont Hotel and Casino, Golden Gate Hotel & Casino, Golden Nugget and more. Much of "classic" Glitter Gulch is now history, replaced by a mega casino, Circa Las Vegas.

Hair As Gold As Straw (Chapter 2 - Moving Underground)

[Prologue] // [Chapter 1 of 9] // [Chapter 2 of 9 - you are here!] // [Chapter 3 of 9] – (FFN) (AO3)

Part of the @ninjago-fairy-tale-au!

Summary:

Once upon a time, Princess Vania of Shintaro lived in an ivory castle in an ivory city. Her father, King Vangelis, kept her safe in her tower, where no one could hurt her and she could not hurt herself... until the day when she ran away. A Colania Snow White retelling.

Chapter summary:

The adventure of a lifetime has begun, and Vania must find her place in a completely new environment.

Vania, Grendle, and the other Geckles trekked through the caves for a time, before coming to a great pair of doors, which towered over all of them. Vania stared up at them, and she felt small, already regretting leaving home for this cold, unwelcoming world. The doors loomed ominously.

Grendle knocked on the doors. "A stranger has come into the caverns and must come before the Parliament!" he cried.

"Bring him in!" another voice called from inside. "Let him speak before Chancellor Gulch!"

The doors creaked open, and the other two Geckles took Vania's arms, pulling her inside. Once she entered, doors slammed shut behind them.

Inside the doors laid an enormous cavern, riddled with stalactites that glowed with moss. Inside, three large structures sat; on either side was a row of stands filled with seats, and between them a third with only one seat. Each of the two side stands was filled with Geckles, while one with a sash, seemingly the chancellor, sat at the third. He stood up.

"Grendle! Who is this man?"

Vania stepped forwards. "My name is Princess Vania of Shintaro, Chancellor." The Geckles murmured amongst themselves. "My father, King Vangelis, has kept me trapped in the palace for years, and I escaped down here into your caves."

"Harrumph! You are not a man, you are a woman! You say you are a princess from above the mountain, seeking refuge?" Gulch asked.

"Yes, I am."

"Why should we believe you are from above, and not a Munce spy?"

"What is a Munce?" Vania asked. "I don't know what that is."

"I move to accept that she is not a Munce!" a voice cried out, and the crowd of purple men began throwing rocks at one of the ones in the stands. The chancellor put up his hand.

"Very well! We are in agreement; she is not a Munce!" The chancellor stood up. "We accept that you are from above the mountain. I move to let her take up residence in the eastern caverns!" He was pelted with pebbles. "It is decided!"

-----

Vania looked around the enormous caverns. Gems glittered in the ceiling, and stalactites glowed with moss. In the walls, black stone veined with glowing orange peeked through, giving off a faintly diffused light. Geckle homes were scattered throughout, build into the side of one of the walls, opposite a large passageway that closed with tall, wooden doors. They piled up like boulders and were built from stone and mortar, grey and black rock melding together so unlike the ways of the Shintarans.

Throughout the cavern, various tools were scattered; pickaxes, ropes, wheelbarrows and buckets were only a few. Rubble was piled and scattered in every corner and crevice, sparkling with mica and chips of gemstones that contrasted against the dull rock. All was grey and dull except for them and the moss.

After she entered, Gleck found Vania and showed her around the caverns. They were inseparable, like in childhood. He told her about how the Geckles lived in their stone homes. He showed her their gemstone mine and where they harvested the moss milk, which they found so delicious. He explained how they lived underground, never needing to see the sun. Finally, he showed her the home where she would stay, right next to his.

Once he had shown her everything, Vania asked him a question that had tormented her.

"Why are all of the homes on this wall, Gleck? They look like they're running away from the passageway."

"Because the Munce live in that direction." Gleck pointed at the doors. "The passageway divides us. We are not meant to go anywhere near them."

"But why? Are they fearsome people?"

"Oh, yes! I am not scared of them, but the others are." He frowned. "They say they are treacherous and steal the gems we mine for their own. They are said to have stolen an ancient blade!"

"Why do they say that?" Vania asked.

"I do not know. The blades are only a legend. It is a rivalry as old as the mountain." Gleck sighed. "You may go to meet them, if you wish, but I would not advise that."

Their conversation ended quickly, as Gleck went to introduce Vania to several of his friends. Grit and Gipper were both Gleck's neighbors, and they would be Vania's too. They were friendly, but they both affirmed that the Munce were bad. Vania's interest was piqued.

-----

Late the next night, Vania snuck out of her new stone home. She slipped through the passage to the Munce caverns, padding silently through the cold stone walkway. The gems in the ceiling twinkled, but the moss began to disappear, being replaced by furry lichen. Eventually, she came to an identical pair of doors, and slipped through them to see another enormous cavern.

The Munce lived very differently from the Geckles, in terraced layers of mud and stone buildings. Their homes reached to the ceiling, and there were ladders dug into the sides of the walls. All over the floors, there were weapons and mining tools strewn. Bones were cluttered in corners, and piles of dirt and debris were everywhere.

A large, teal creature came out of one of the buildings. It stretched and yawned loudly. Several others followed it out, clearly just waking up. Vania watched as they picked up pickaxes and clubs and headed into another cavern.

Vania quietly followed them and peeked into the second cavern. This one was as large as the Geckle parliament, but instead of their structure, it had an enormous banquet table. At the end of the cave was a throne on a pedestal, where a clearly female Munce sat. She was attended by several others, and as more Munce entered, they took their places at the table. As they slowly woke up, they slowly became more aggressive, starting to fight over meaningless things. Eventually the table was full.

"Munce! Today, we mine! Murt and Muckle, you hunt!" the queen announced. Two Munce in particular started cheering, but she glared at them and their neighbors hit them on the head.

Vania watched their proceedings, slowly creeping out of hiding. Eventually the queen looked up toward her and scowled.

"Intruder!" She pointed at Vania. "Who are you!?"

Vania stepped back. "I am Vania. I'm sorry for intruding."

"Sorry, schmorry. Why are you here?" the queen demanded.

"I was curious."

The Munce began muttering to each other, kicking up a ruckus. The queen silenced them with a glare. "You are no Geckle."

"No, but they took me in."

"And you are here to spy on us Munce for those traitorous Geckles, blade stealers?"

"No!" Vania put up her hands. "I wanted to know who you were, that is all."

One of the ones on the ground walked up to her, and he pointed at the doors. "Geckles are not good like Munce."

"They've been good to me. My friend told me that the rivalry is meaningless."

"They are sneaky! Bad Geckles. They are said to lie with every breath. You trust them?"

"Yes. I think you are wrong. Why do you not trust them?"

"We trust them enough," the queen said. "Go back to the Geckles! Do not trouble us."

The other Munce led her out of the cavern to the doors.

"I am Murt. You are not Geckle, and Geckles are not bad."

Vania smiled. "Thank you, Murt. Perhaps we will see each other again?"

"Maybe. We mine with the Geckles, so maybe there."

Vania slipped back to the Geckle caverns unnoticed, and that was the end of that.

-----

Over the next several months, Vania lived in harmony with the Geckles. The Geckles and Munce worked together sometimes in the mines, and Vania met the other Munce. Murt introduced her to his friends Mimble and Molt. Vania introduced them to her Geckle friends, and somehow they became friends, too. They even found a friend– a baby dragon that Vania named Chompy. The seven of them– Chompy, Murt, Mimble, Molt, Gleck, Grit, and Gipper– became inseparable, and Vania often joined them.

Life was good in the caverns below the mountain once the Geckles and Munce united. Vania never once was trapped; she was allowed to go anywhere she pleased and do anything she wished. Unlike her life in Shintaro, she saw no beautiful artwork or read books– instead, she mined with the Geckles and Munce, singing work songs with a great heigh-ho. She never once looked back, only once considering going back to Shintaro; while she was more than happy to live her life in the caves, it wasn't like her life above, so was it worth staying?

She disregarded the idea. Going back to her father would mean she would have to face her father's punishment– even more captivity, or worse. She did not want to face that.

For the moment, life for Princess Vania was good… but she knew it sadly couldn't last.

What banjo kazooie / tooie level was your favorite and/or which scared you the most?

AYYYY!!!

from kazooie-

clankers cavern spooked me at first, but the game does a lot to let u know this is a nice fella. ironically mad monster mansion didnt scare me at all and was a favorite next to click clock wood

from tooie-

witchyworld, hailfire peaks and jolly roger's lagoon for sure were my favorites here, with mr patch being my favorite boss battle LMAO. i think the only thing in this game that scared me was the deepest part of glitter gulch mine, where the music gets tense and you're feeling around in near darkness, possibly not alone??? made tiny eri nervous!!!!

#i liked the gimmicky worlds a lot #the only world i didnt love between the two games is terrydactyland #THANKS FOR THE ASK DUDE!!!
