[QUOTE="RobShanti, post: 6237513, member: 82745"] [B]Chapter 3: Cove of Horrors![/B] Rockbert the blue-skinned half-dragon White Wizard, Trinity the purple-skinned Rainbow Fairy, and Princess Aurora of Flame Castle had the Ogres in a compromising position, hanging by their collars from the trees! They struck a deal: the Ogres would remove the dam if Rockbert, Trinity and Princess Aurora brought them the treasure chest hidden inside the abandoned cove of the dread pirate Nerossa! Rockbert, Trinity and Princess Aurora agreed to this arrangement on one condition: the Ogres remove half the boulders now as a show of good faith. Both parties agreed to the terms and Trinity let the Ogres down from their lofty positions. They all walked to the riverside, and worked together to remove half of the boulders. The Ogres then drew a map in the dirt leading to the abandoned cove of the dread pirate Nerossa in the hills. Rockbert, Trinity and Princess Aurora followed the directions and came across a pack of wolves. The wolves chased them and they ran as fast as they could to the cave mouth. When they entered the cave, the wolves stopped, not daring to go any further! The cave tunnel was hidden by many hanging cobwebs. Rockbert cast a magical light spell with his wand, but the dusty cobwebs cast too many shadows to see properly. Rockbert tried cutting the cobwebs with his longsword, but the webs were so strong and sticky, that even the half-dragon became entangled and could not free himself! Princess Aurora lit her flaming sword and cut down the cobwebs, freeing Rockbert. She cut their way through the tunnel which ended in a waterfall. Passing through the waterfall, they found the tunnel continued, and a great stone door sealed behind them, preventing them from turning back. Further down the tunnel, a loose tile in the floor hid a pit trap, and Rockbert fell in. The bottom of the pit was dark, so Princess Aurora held her flaming short sword over the edge so Rockbert could see. Dozens of skeletons littered the bottom of the pit. One of the skeletons got up, and just as it lunged toward Rockbert, Trinity used her pixie dust to levitate him out to safety. Continuing down the tunnel, they came to a wide staircase. As they reached the middle of the stairs, the steps collapsed into a slide, and they all slid back down into the pit, crushing the animated skeleton. Trinity was able to fly out of the way of the pit, and used her magic to levitate her friends out of the pit and to the top of the collapsing stairs. At the top of the stairs, Rockbert found a ladder leading to a trap door in the ceiling. He climbed up to examine the area for more traps, and found that the ladder led to a dusty room with no features except for an archway leading further into the cove. Rockbert beckoned for his friends, and Princess Aurora and Trinity began their ascent toward the dusty room . . . [/QUOTE]
