Salty Swamp[]
Warning: Spoilers to the first Salty Swamp episode!
In the first episode of Salty Swamp, it is known that Loke was fishing for awhile for the Sacred Fish. However he notices someone coming up behind him. As the stranger asks Loke if he lost something in the water, Loke replies back to the stranger by telling him that finding the Sacred Fish is very rare in the small part of Salty Swamp. And that finding the fish and having it get on your line takes you to a secret treasure. Loke would ask the stranger if he's new around the area, to which the stranger agrees and introduces himself as Dron. Loke would reply back with his name and state that he's the "village idiot" in the swamp. Dron asks Loke why he's called that and Loke replies that he stands at the same spot just trying to catch the Sacred Fish.
However, behind Loke and Dron the Sacred Fish appears behind them introducing itself and thanking Loke for finding him. After numerous tries of trying to get Loke's attention the fish gets angry, grabs a human grandmother from the water and holds her hostage just to get Loke's attention. However Sergeant Benidine Binkleton and his two other officers arrive in a card board box to request the Fish to put the grandmother and gun down. The Fish refuses and even insults the Sergeant. Benidine Binkleton orders the other two officers to fire at the Fish however they both shoot at each other and the Sergeant killing eachother instantly, with the Sergeant faking his own death. The Fish pretending that what happened didn't happen, throws the grandmother and firearm to the side.
As Loke asks if he heard something behind him, Dron replies with a simple no and Loke thought it was probably just his imagination. Loke would tell Dron that he had been in the same spot for a very long time and even have an outburst by yelling that it sometimes makes him crazy. Before Drons eyes just glow randomly more than likely as an act of self defense by accident. This scares Loke for a second before dismissing it and requesting Dron to come with him to visit the Professor. However two spies watch them and spy on them as they tried to catch the Sacred Fish.
After learning something was wrong with Dron, Loke takes him to the Professors house. Located in the unknown regions of Salty Swamp. Loke knocks on the professors door and doesn't get an answer. Dron says he's probably not home with Loke laughing it off saying that the Professor never leaves his home. The Professor would look at the two through his sliding peephole and would get jumpscared because he saw to alligators outside on his porch. Loke would tell the Professor it was just him and a friend, however after the professor forgets his name and Loke tells him what his name is after numerous tries the Professor finally remembers Loke's name and allows him and Dron inside.
The Professor allows Dron and Loke to come inside. Dron admires the inside of the Professors home and even points out to his pet. The Professor states he created the monkey out of grass. However Loke whispers into Dron's ear telling him not to believe it and that it's he bought it from Petco. The Professor would ask Loke if he found the Sacred Fish yet, to which Loke would respond saying he didn't. The Professor would be mildly upset before Loke cuts him off telling the Professor to look at Dron's eyes as they have a special ability. As the professor takes a look at Dron's eyes, he at first doesn't notice much until Dron's eyes shoot out a green plasma force at the Professor. Loke looks in awe and shock and runs to the Professor asking if he's okay with even Dron apologizing. Loke and Dron would make assumptions thinking that the Professor would have to go to a hospital or that his leg is fractured but as upset as the Professor was, he was upset that his penis enlarging potion was gone. Loke would then roll his eyes before the screen cuts to black.
Salty Swamp 2 - The Sacred Village - Part 1[]
The second episode would center at least a few months after the original episode of Salty Swamp. Both Loke and Dron would go to the Police department to look for the Sacred Village. They would ask Sergeant Benidine Binkleton for help and as he drew a map of where it was located he told one of his stories. While they listened Dron would decide to pain Loke on the nearby couch. After hearing the story from Sergeant Benidine Binkleton, Dron would ask where it's located and Binkleton would reply that it was just West of Salty Swamp. Dron would say that they would need backup. However as Sergeant Benidine Binkleton says that everything would be fine, one of the Boss's enemies would listen in on the plan. Reporting to him what he learned.
Loke, Dron and Benidine Binkleton would get a boat and head west to the Sacred Village. While headed there Loke gets a call from the Professor as he asks what's going on. Loke would reply that he and Dron were tagging along with the Benidine Binkleton to the Sacred Village, though Loke thought that the Sergeant was making it all up. Both Loke and Dron would finally make it to the Sacred Villages main door with Benidine Binkleton. Dron asks how to get in and after Benidine Binkleton asks politely to come in. However after being denied by the guy in the intercom he tells both Dron and Loke to make up some guesses. With Loke very confused and Dron angry they decide not to say anything and let Sergeant Benidine Binkleton do most of the guessing. As the Sergeant makes makes a couple guesses, even getting threatened to say it correctly the man behind the intercom tells him the password. Once the Sergeant get the password to sound similar to what it is Loke, Dron and Sergeant Benidine Binkleton are allowed inside. As they walk in, Loke jokes that the Sergeant was faking it with Dron and then they enter the village.
