(YBA) Diaochan in Wicht's lair alone

[Wicht]

The man collapses in a heap. His blood spills slowly out of his mouth and onto the ground.

Diaochan recieves 1.5 experience points.

The man had only one sword on him. That and a sealed scroll case.

Diaochan looks at the scroll case and tries to open it

[Wicht]

The scroll within the case is rather cryptic.

It reads...

Losses are heavy at top. W is doing little. Now is the time for action. ~R

 

[tleilaxu]

Hmm...

Diaochan heads toward the goblin tunnels

 

[Wicht]

As Diaochan heads once more northward through the cemetery she reaches the spot where she first saw the man she just killed and is aware that to her right there is something moving stealthily through the fog, unseen but not completely unheard. It seems to be snuffling as it moves.

 

[tleilaxu]

Diaochan slowly turns her head toward the noise. She stands relaxed with her hand on her hip, waiting to see what will show itself...

 

[Wicht]

The sound stops for a moment and then circles around in front of Diaochan. It stops just out of sight int he fog and then walks off the road to the left, still unseen,

 

[tleilaxu]

Diaochan follows carefully...

 

[Wicht]

As diaochan follows the sounds off the path and onto the grass of the graveyard, she is startled by the leaping attack of a vaguely manlike thing with yellow skin, red eyes and the stench of death.

It claws at her.
