[QUOTE="Eccles, post: 3209723, member: 5675"] As we stood staring at the slender columns in the corridor, a thin hand tapped me on the shoulder. When I had stopped screaming, and my heartbeat had returned to something like normal, I realised that Flynne had returned to us, creeping up stealthily through the maze. Enthused by our friend’s return, we stepped into the pale corridor, and soon came across a strange room, with purple lined rock on most of the walls. On the wall to our left, the wall was the colour of tar, and strange hands pushed out towards us from the other side, grasping slowly before sinking back under the surface of the wall. Also in the room was a heavy stone altar, before which stood two robed figures, who rubbed at it enthusiastically, polishing the dark stonework. .oOo. Flynne celebrated his return by firing his bow into one of the two hooded figures. The arrow flew towards the head of the figure, but slowed strangely as it closed, and somehow didn’t strike as hard as it should have done. I started an enthusing chant, backing around the corridor. I could see Endo firing his recently captured crossbow at a figure. He swore, as the same mystical effect caused his bolt to slow in the same way. From my position around the corner, I could hear an appalling screaming noise, which got louder and louder as it came from the room with the altar. Poking my head around the corner, I was rewarded with the unearthly spectral sight of a ghostly chanting figure, babbling incoherently. Behind it, Flynne’s lips moved in a soundless echo of the allip. The creature itself glided through the air, and attacked Niccoli. The ghost’s clawed hand passed through Niccoli’s armour, and then through the fighter’s torso as well. A strange grin spread across Niccoli’s face for a second, before he looked terrified, confused, and nervous in rapid succession. Niccoli dashed into the room away from the allip; taking a second blow for his troubles. This second attack turned his skin almost ashen, but he gripped his bastard sword and bellowed a very un-Niccoli-like warcry as he ran at the two hooded figures. As Igmut moved up to face the life-draining ghost, Endo chanted briefly, before shouting at the ghost to stop attacking. It paused, and frowned at Endo (perhaps because he was using his Hat of Disguise to look like a rogue). A wide slit of a mouth opened in the creature’s head. “You can’t tell me what to do,” the creature told Endo. But it sounded uncertain. [/QUOTE]
