The Day of Justice, 1st day of the month of Summer Flame, year 533
I stealthily sneak past the guards stationed at the door to the Mynoric
Garrison. Creeping down the corridors, I come upon a locked door. Smiling
confidently, I attempt to pick the lock.
The lock quickly yields to your skills.
I enter the room and look around. Its empty and bare - no treasure here. I
go back out into the hall and try the next door - locked again. I pick the
lock.
You hear a soft click from the lock as it opens.
A small golden needle springs from the lock, sticking you.
You grit your teeth in pain as poison enters your blood.
I blink in disbelief... I've never come across a trapped lock yet, but
fortunately I am prepared for all eventualities. I get a deep blue potion
from my bag and quaff it, removing the poison from my blood. I open the door
and silently slip in to the room, where lurks a strange beast. Strange beasts
are usually trouble, so I stick my dagger in its back. It is badly wounded,
but fights back.
You watch mesmerized as the gekrenvelle belches out a malodorous cloud of
vapor at you.
You are paralyzed and unable to move!
I stand helplessly frozen as the gekrenvelle attacks me. After a while, the
paralysis fades, and I manage to finish it off before it breathes on me
again. I strip the body of its belongings, and continue my exploration of the
garrison. I know there is more to this place than meets the eye, but I
cannot solve its puzzle. I give up and head for the exit in frustration.
You hear a low rumbling as the earth shudders.
You try to move during the quake and fall!
I quickly sit down while the earthquake shakes the building and surrounds.
After the tremors abate, I stand up and hastily set traps in the hall - it
would be fatal for me if the guards came upon me now.
You skillfully set and place the trap...backing away carefully.
You skillfully set and place the trap...backing away carefully.
I then sit and meditate for a while, focussing my mind to convert some of my
body's energy into healing power. After my meditation, I wait and gather up
my traps, and proceed to massacre all the guards left weakened from the
earthquake. I may not have found treasure, but I have gained much valuable
combat experience here.
