Isadora Posted January 20, 2007 Report Share Posted January 20, 2007 Northern Fortress Hallway You are walking through the northern part of the hallways. You notice that the hallways are rather plain. It appears that these hallways are littered by people who the builders of this castle considered less important and didn't even bother to make the place look better. There are torches on the walls, but that's the only interesting part of it. You can hear the screams getting rather close now. [Exits: (east) south] A master warrior stands here watching over others. A warrior stands here ready to train. Standing within a hallway, Ecasio peers at a small door to the east. Entrance to Dungeons You stand just outside the dungeons where the captured are being tortured by the evil torturers. You can hear horrible screams coming from below the stairs and since you can't see below you begin to wonder if going down those steps is such a good idea. A horrible scream interrupts your thoughts yet again. [Exits: (west) down] A small cry rings, Ecasio turns his head towards the stairwell leading down. Standing in Dungeons You are standing inside the dungeons. You notice some torches lining the walls. There are horrible screams coming from further inside making your skin crawl. Some screams are so horrible you begin to wonder if they are made by normal people. [Exits: south up] Ecasio whispers to himself, 'What fell place is this? A dungeon?' A torturer smirks at the presence of the healer Ecasio. Ecasio Ignores the hideous glances of the men, he grimaces as he smells the stench that comes from the south. A loud cry is heard as Ecasio traverses through the slippery dungeons. A room within the Dungeons You stand in a room within the dungeons. You notice a fireplace in the corner along with a pot of boiling hot oil for boiling the victims in it. In the middle you notice a stone altar with chains attached to it and the walls are lined with many tools. You can not even begin to imagine how some of them may be used. [Exits: east] A slave lies here half dead from the pains of the torture. A torturer stands here about to torture it's next victim. Ecasio opens the lids of his eyes gently. Ecasio Shouts at the torturer, 'What do you think you are you doing, filth?!' Cackling, the torturer grins evilly, his yellow teeth gleaming at Ecasio. With the whip in hand, he brandishes it, and with a 'SNAP' cracks it against the slave's back in front of Ecasio. Ecasio closes his eyes, his fists revealed from beneath his robes, a fiery sphere surrounds him. You are protected by the wrath of the gods. Ecasio opens his eyes, the Torturer stops his maniacal cackle and opens his mouth in surprise. Your dispel evil MANGLES a torturer! A torturer has a few scratches. Your magic misses a torturer. You parry a torturer's attack. Your divine retribution DISMEMBERS a torturer! A torturer tries to disarm you, but fails. Your divine retribution DISMEMBERS a torturer! A torturer has some small wounds and bruises. A torturer dodges your attack. Your magic misses a torturer. You parry a torturer's attack. Your divine retribution MASSACRES a torturer! Luckily your feet aren't on the ground. Your divine retribution DISMEMBERS a torturer! A torturer is DEAD!! Ecasio seems to release his tensions, the vigorous green in his eyes fade away. Ecasio helps the slave to his feet, he looks him over, the starvation, the slave must have endured, is apparent. A magic meal suddenly appears. Picking up the food, Ecasio feeds the whimpering slave. Ceasing his whimpering, the slave looks at Ecasio with a wonder, he nods his head slowly in appreciation. Ecasio says, 'What has brought you here to this fell dungeon?' The slave lowers his head in shame at Ecasio and stutters, 'I-I was tor-tortured for n-n-not being able t-to beat a w-w...' Ecasio interrupts, 'It is not right that you were punished for such unreasonable tests.' Ecasio closes his eyes and places a slender hand upon the slaves back. Almost magically, the wounds and deep scars disappear, the slave smiles in delight at the healing from Ecasio. Ecasio gently nods at the smiling slave. You say 'It is not that you cannot beat anyone, you forgot to have hope.' Glancing at the walls dripping with green slime, Ecasio says, 'With hope, one can accomplish even the impossible and futile paths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
