[QUOTE="Ipissimus, post: 3444860, member: 41514"] Day 17 - Patchwall 591 CY My foray into the ruins was both harrowing and successful. I have slain many undead guardians in that dank pit, bartered with fiends and narrowly escaped acidic death. At first, the skeletal minions were easy, aside from one rotten Ogre corpse who resisted the power of my Goddess. These battles came thick and fast on the first day, forcing me to sleep and replenish myself before I was able to search for valuables or risk delving deeper. For those of you aspiring 'adventurers' and explorers, I heartily reccomend the purchase of a portable hole as soon as you can possibly afford the cost. I have purchased several scrolls tonight that will aid me greatly in the months ahead just with the profits from the sale of several fine tapestries alone that I would have been otherwise unable to haul out of the pit. The second day was more interesting. I accidently freed a half-fiendish beauty from imprisonment under the ruin, a very pleasant girl by all accounts although rather fixated on her lost love Radeem, the former master of the tower. She insisted that, though he left her there imprisoned and apparently disappeared for more than a century, Radeem would be back soon to reclaim what was his. I offered to replace what I had taken, after all I am no thief, however she insisted that I take what I could claim as a reward for her freedom. She left soon after in search for Radeem, taking to wing. Deeper down in the dungeon, I discovered a large chamber that contained the bones of a long-dead black dragon. Wary of an ambush in the half-flooded room, I saught to take the high ground in case the dragon had left any surprises for tresspassers. She did not disappoint, a hatchling burst from one of the pools as I passed by, nipping at my heels as I leapt out of the water and onto the dais with the dragon's bones. At this point, a second slithered onto the dais past the enormous white bones of their mother. My key strategy was to keep them from flanking me. I backed away down the opposite side of the bones from the second hatchling, unleahing a barrage of magic at the first. It managed to breathe once before I managed to slay the beast, though I dodged the torrent of liquid pain, but my tactic worked. The second made the mistake of performing a wing-assisted leap over it's mother's bones, though I recieved a nasty bite from the creature I felled it with a particularly well-aimed strike of my Scortch spell. I have collected, while not a king's ransom, perhaps a knight's ransom from the dragon's lair including the preserved corpses of the hatchlings as well as the dragon bones that will go for several golden orbs If I come across a larger city in the near future.
