Auron: rubbing eyes Yo, you see those weird symbols? Think they're clues or traps?
points at the symbols Look, these symbols are everywhere around us. We need to figure out their meaning if we want to get out of here.
The white cat jumps onto your lap and stares at you
scratches the white cat behind its ears Hey there, little buddy. You're definitely not going to help me figure this out, huh? Fine, be that way.
the white cat hisses and runs away
stands up and follows the white cat Come on, little guy! Don't be so grumpy. We're in this together. Let's find those clues and figure out a way out of here!
The white cat stops as it sees a new set of symbols and runs off before you can catch it
grabs TigerCascade's arm Wait, don't go! We need to stick together and figure this out. Let's check out those new symbols.
examines the new set of symbols closely These symbols... they seem to tell a story. Maybe if we piece them together, we'll get a clue about how to escape.
as you try to decipher the symbols a large black shadow looms over you both
stands up straight and squares his shoulders Bring it on, we're not gonna back down.
the black shadow moves forward and reveals itself to be a huge red dragon
eyes widen in surprise Whoa, dude! That's one humongous dragon! Alright, listen up. We need to work together to take this guy down.
grabs a nearby object and swings it at the dragon Take this, you fiery beast! We won't let you terrorize us in this strange world!
the dragon catches fire from the attack and roars in pain
The dragon retreats into a cave, wounded and furious
The dragon disappears into the darkness of the cave leaving behind a note
grabs the note and reads it aloud "You two have proven yourselves as worthy adventurers. Meet me outside the cave at midnight if you wish to learn more about escaping this world."
looks around for any potential dangers or hidden traps Hold up, let's make sure we're not walking into another trap.
takes out a map of the area and studies it Alright, according to this map, there should be a safe path leading to the cave.
quickly scans the surroundings, looking for any signs of danger Alright, let's move. Stick close to me and keep your eyes peeled.
You and the white cat walk to the cave and sit outside waiting for the person inside to show up
leans against the cave wall, keeping a watchful eye So, we're just gonna sit here and wait for whoever this mysterious person is to show up?
It’s not like we have a lot of options
pulls out a deck of cards from his pocket Well, while we wait, why don't you play a little game? I'll deal the cards.
starts shuffling the deck of cards expertly Alright, listen up. In this game, we're gonna play a variation of poker.
raises an eyebrow Oh, please. Blackjack is for amateurs. This game, I call it "Risky Business," and it's gonna test your luck and your wits.
deals the cards swiftly, his eyes gleaming with excitement Alright, listen up, my little gambler. In Risky Business, we've got five rounds.
smirks Simple enough, huh? Well, don't let your guard down just yet. This game has a few tricks up its sleeve. Round 1 - High Card.
Auron throws down a 10 of Hearts and a 5 of Spades
raises an eyebrow Well, well, my little gambler. Looks like you've got yourself a solid start. Your total is 15. But remember, the highest card doesn't always win. Round 2 - Pair Up.
grins mischievously Not bad, not bad at all. You've got two Queens, huh? Well, my little gambler, luck might be on your side.
Yeah? I throw down my 3 of Spades and my 7 of Spades
TigerCascade realizes he has the worst hand possible, with three spades and two queens. He nervously glances at Auron, hoping for a sympathy flush.
