Legacy Of The Deep (Pt. 1) - Escape From Zanzer's Dungeon

[Ravellion]

Morn speaks in his tranquil voice:"Axel, of all men and women here, you are furthest away from achieving perfection, since you lack the motivation and determination to face the challenges that life tests you with. Had I received training in using either shield or armour, I would not hesitate to be in front. I think I speak for all when I say that you try and fulfill the role you have been trained to perform. If the tiger refuses to hunt, he has lost the chance to face the challenges that come most naturally to him. So you can prove your worth and lead, or lose my respect."

 

[Wippit Guud]

Celpher

Celpher quietly returns to the main group.

"There's light and noise behind the southern door. Bubbling and footsteps."

Celpher then looks at Axel, "
And you... shut up."

Celpher turns his back on Axel and returns to the southern door, and waits for others to join him before he opens the door.

 

[Sullaf]

A low snickering can be heard from the back every time the dwarf yells at Axel. Geramon, desperately trying to hide his laughter, has 2 hands on his now red face and tries to look as unnoticeable as possible.

 

[Ravellion]

Morn

"I'll be directly behind anyone who will take the lead."

 

[Zhure]

Aaman

"I suggest we take the passage with torches, and not the one with footsteps. Our goal now is to escape, not confront our captor yet."

 

[Ravellion]

"I concur, Aaman."

 

[Dungannon]

Sydney Halehearth

When Sydney hears the suggestion to try the door he's at, he grabs the torch that Axel threw into the room and props it up on the wall next to him.

"Thanks for the light, Axel. Now I can do my job." Sydney smiles at the burly fighter.

Now that he has light, Sydney proceeds to check the door for locks and traps, attempting to unlock/disarm any that he finds.

 

[Chauzu]

As Axel listens to those that talk back to him, his whole face gets red with anger. He looks like he will burst out any second now as he grinds his teeth. Now just imagine steam evaporating from his bald head...

Sydney finds no lock or trap on the door, and it seems to open easily.

On the other side is another small hallway with two doors. This hallway has one torch which is located between the two other doors, but there is nothing else, except for a few scattered straws of hay on the stone floor.

Then the loud, deep voice is heard singing again, much closer this time. Geramon notices the singing right away as the the voice he heard through Ron's connection.

"Ring-a-ding-ding, weasel stew and lots of brew, almost done now need the crew, to test my cooking and see if it's true, that weasel stew is good to chew..."

The others do not know where the singing is coming from, but Morn and Celpher notice it right away as coming from the room that the bard checked. The one with the bubbling.

"Hmmm... now where is my cleaver... to use on that beaver... err.. weasel... must find it to chop the thing into a little... teaser... yeah... just a test this is to find the right stew, then if this is good, yes yes more more weasel stew." The voice laughs loudly, then continues, "Ah, plenty of weasel to go around, oh yes! Here is thy cleaver! Woo haa! Yaa hoo!"

 

[Sullaf]

Geramon

Geramon turn ash white when he hears the last remark and with a voice filled with panic he screams "NOOOOOO!!!!!" and runs towards the sound source. If he is able to determine which door to take he will try to burst into the room, in a desperate state trying to save his beloved pet.

 

[Zhure]

Aaman

Sensing an animal is in distress, Aaman will set the travois down as quickly as possible and race after Geramon.
