[QUOTE="megamania, post: 760102, member: 9255"] UNDER A DARKSUN SEGMENT 028 “Sneaky Thieving Rogue” Pushing with all of his might, Dogg slowly moves the trigger mechanism aside. He checks once more for traps or guardians. He finds none and trys to move silently through the air shaft. “Figures it would be Mania to do something disgusting and discover a means out,” Dogg thinks. Dogg’s stomach growls audibly in hunger as reaches another stone block. No traps are found on this one. A sharp pain rises in Doggs side. Paniced to missed a needle trap he checks. “oh- it’s the panic button.” He thinks. He loses himself in deep thought. It was a few years ago now that he first met the man that would change his outlook in life forever. He was still looking for work at taverns in Nibenay when he saw a staggering man in an alley. Going there, he found a man run through by a sword and scorched as if struck by a torch repeatedly. He brought the man to his assembled shelter in an abondoned section of city. Here he nursed him and hid him. Later he learned this man worked for the Veiled Alliance and was attacked by Nibenay’s city forces. He would have died that night in the alley if not for him. The man, in graditude, gave his a jagged crystal and said it summon him if he was within a few days trip away. The man- Fasston. He never saw him again but allows felt he was there…watching. Several days ago he tried to use the crystal. He guessed he had to but hold it and think about being rescued. He was never told how to use it but had seen similar devices before by other Alliance members. So much for the glorious rescue. Indirectly it was Mania whom figured out a means out. All of our stomachs hurt from lack of food. His spoke out and was quite rancid. He made a comment about so much for the fresh air. At that point both Dutch and myself looked at each other. We had crossed a few sealed doors but the air wasn’t stale. Fresh air was coming in from somewhere. It took a day but we found air vents set high. The vents were just large enough for me to use so here I am…crawling through trapped vents looking to get out and free the door from the other side to allow Mania and Dutch in. He sees a mild glow ahead of him. He inches silently to it and sees a large pool of water with a faint blueish-green emmitting from within. The room itself is very large and fairly empty. Except for below. He sees several cloth bundles and books at the base of the wall, next to the door. Even from here in the dark, he can see the lever barring the door. He drops almost quietly to the floor. He steps on something that crunches benength his feet. Concerned, he looks closer trying to keep the torch from touching anything. It’s dieing embers show a large centipede of garish colors and patterns. “EH!” he says with a disgusted look on his face. He goes to frre the bar when his curiousity gets the better of him. He checks out the bundles. What he finds brings a smile onto his face. He begins to hum as he checks for traps on the door and barring latch. He stops humming abruptly as a low long howl can be heard……………………. [/QUOTE]
