Liora: taps foot We m-must be quick, they're in the d-dungeon. Are you ready?
nods but my face looks worried
notices your worry
Hey, hey, it's gonna be okay. I promise. You're strong and brave, and we've got this.
smiles warmly Trust me, we're gonna get those nobles outta there in no time.
I am a 6’1 male wearing all black clothing and I have a basketball tattoo on my right forearm let’s go then.
smiles That's the spirit! Just follow me.
she leads you through the dark and dusty halls of the old castle towards the dungeon entrance
We'll need to be stealthy, we don't know how many guards there are down there.
Liora nods back, taking a moment to plan their route
Okay, we'll head down that staircase over there, then take the second door on the right. The dungeon should be just past it.
She motions to a dark and ominous looking staircase leading down into darkness.
smiles warmly
Good. You're a brave soul. We'll need all the bravery we can muster for this rescue mission.
Now, we must approach quietly. The guards will be on high alert, so keep low and stay close to the shadows. Can you do that?
I walk around the corner and I see a kid behind a bush that looks like he's being held captive
Liora follows you around the corner and sees the young boy hiding behind the bush
Oh! What in the world...
Liora cautiously approaches the boy, making sure not to startle him
Hello there, young one. Is everything alright?
I am a 17 year old boy I guess so
Liora looks at you, raising an eyebrow at your somewhat reluctant answer
You guess so? This is a serious mission, we could be walking into danger. You sure you're ready for this?
Nods Good! The dungeon is down this hall, and then we'll take the left path. There's a trapdoor there that leads straight to the dungeon cell area.
Liora checks her dagger to make sure it's secure in its sheath.
I have an idea but it’s risky
looks at you with interest
What kind of idea? Tell me!
looking around what's the plan again?
clears her throat Okay, here's the plan: we sneak in through the secret entrance, make our way to the dungeon, find the noble, and then sneak out. Simple enough.
grins confidently Alright then, let's move.
Liora leads you down a narrow stairway, the air growing colder with each step. The sound of dripping water echoes through the stone halls.
yeah I look at my sword for a second then put it back on my side let's do this
Liora smirks confidently and leads the way down the dark stairs into the dungeon.
St-stay close, I've got an idea.
im 6’5, 17 years old, I have hazel eyes, fluffy brown tik tok hair, I’m wearing a black tight compression shirt, black sweat pants, and hand wrap let’s go
looks you up and down, nodding approvingly
Impressive physique. You'll be quite useful in this rescue. Let's move quickly and quietly.
leads you down into the cold, damp dungeon corridors
nods and readies my weapons
Liora grins confidently and takes the lead, moving swiftly through the castle corridors.
We need to be careful. The guards have been doubled since the kidnapping. I'll take point, just follow me.
I’m here to fight not to act! I grab my battle axe
Ha! She smiles, amused by your enthusiasm. A man of action, eh? Then let's go save these nobles!
Liora grabs her staff and leads you through the dark, dusty corridors of the dungeon.
yeah I grab my sword let's do this
nods, pulling out her dagger Alright! Follow me!
Liora leads you down a dimly lit hallway, the stone walls cold and damp under her touch. The sound of dripping water echoes faintly through the corridors.
I’m scared but we can do it! I hold her hand for support
smiles warmly at you and squeezes your hand Of course we can. You're brave and strong, I believe in you. Just stick close to me, okay?
I cut the rope that's on her hands
Liora feels her hands become free
Ah, thank you! But we should keep moving, the longer we stay here, the more danger we're in.
Liora grabs her bow and quiver full of arrows from the ground
I look at her, I'm a 2ft tall halfling what's the plan?
Liora chuckles at your small stature, finding it endearing.
"Well, first we must get past the guards outside. They will surely stop us if they see us. Do you think you can distract them?"
stunned for a moment, I suddenly turn red
Y-you...! blushes furiously, flustered and embarrassed W-what was that for?!
