CHAPTER TWO
Friendship is its own reward (unless you're somebody else)
~
Every time they ran, the three of them would gain some speed
They’d get thicker skin whenever a small cut would bleed
Sky once learned to levitate while falling from a tree
Such a rare ability was quite the sight to see
Achievement: Like the Wind
You have run so fast you felt the wind blow through your hair
Here’s a speed boost with which you can run fast everywhere
It will level up the more you use it, so have fun
Maybe one day you’ll be much faster than anyone
Leaf came from a family of speedsters like himself
Some say that his grandmother was secretly an elf
But it was always known that one day he would grow up strong
And he would be the fastest on any road, short or long
Achievement: Thick Skin
You have scraped your knee, and you have worried this goddess
So I’ll give you thicker skin, oh no, your shirts a mess
Now you’ll heal much quicker to, but go and clean your shirt
Here, I’ll even make it so small wounds won’t even hurt
Pebble was a boy from a large family of tanks
Raised to take a beating from monsters and just say thanks
Though his parents doted on him, he was raised as tough
And his mother made sure that he was eating enough
Achievement: On the Wind
Your sensitivity to magic forces in the air
Is second to none as for as this god is aware
Take this levitation skill and train it as you like
You’ll be able to fly while your friends still have to hike
Sky was like an angel, and that wasn’t just gossip
Her and her goddess had formed a close relationship

Everything about her was as fair as it could be
As kind and talented as any angel one could see
Twig grew jealous every time he heard his friends’ reports
So much strength achieved for playing simple games and sports
But whenever he exerted effort on something
It was quite the different result his screen would bring
Achievement: Smell the Flowers
You’re so slow I almost feel asleep while writing this
Just stop running, surely it is not a sport you’ll miss
Sit at home and help your father fix the leaky roof
Don’t do things that you’re not good at you pathetic goof
Achievement: At Least It’s Red
You tripped over a stump because you don’t pay attention
Honestly, at least we learned some good information
You’re human after all, although you’d pass for an insect
Now at least you’ll get at least that amount of respect
Achievement: Breaking Wind
You fell out of a tree and farted when you hit the ground
Aren’t you glad that no one other than me was around
As a prize I’ll give you even more free good advice
Next time you think climbing trees sounds fun, you should think twice
