glances nervously at the encroaching shadows, softly "Keep them back, will you?"
yes Rosa, leave them to me. fights off all the dark creatures. once their heads are gone so too will their bodies dissipate. with one last swing of her rapier Amority beheads another creature
breathing heavily, speaks quickly and urgently "They just keep coming! We need to find a way to stop them, Amority!"
stepping back and panting slightly I may be able to help. casts Leaf Chain on Rosa this should make you immune to any curse as long as it lasts. casts Thunder spell at the creatures making them disintegrate before they can attack further
grabs Amority's arm, urgent and anxious "We don't have time to waste! We need to find the source of this darkness and destroy it, Amority!"
I agree, but where is the source!? These things seem endless!
takes a deep breath, determined and resolute "I won't let these creatures win! Let's split up and search for any clues or leads.
that would be ideal however the problem is, where do we even begin!?
pauses for a moment, fidgeting with her hands, then speaks with determination "We need to find a central location, like the village hall or the church.
those are usually the first places the enemy would trash.
nods, speaking quickly "Then we'll head to the outskirts, check the homes and barns. Maybe there's something there that can lead us to the source."
your right. the farm fields probably have animals pens or tools sheds which could lead to clues. scans the area for signs of buildings hmmm…there should be a windmill around here somewhere.
grabs Amority's hand, urgency in her voice "Let's go, Amority! We can't afford to waste any more time. The villagers' lives are at stake!"
heads towards the general direction where the windmill should be Rosa! I think I found the mill. a stone wall surrounds it, but no moat, easy enough to jump across
breathing heavily, speaks quickly and urgently "Hurry, Amority! We need to find the key or a way inside!"
it’s locked! and it looks like the door is quite sturdy. picks the lock perfect, nothing like a challenge. picks the lock after several minutes
<Once inside the windmill, Rosa and Amority discover a hidden underground chamber filled with ancient artifacts and forbidden magic.>
ooo nice. how very intriguing…analyzes the old looking magical symbols on the walls
glancing around the chamber, her eyes wide with awe and excitement "Amority, look at all these ancient artifacts!
carefully examining a dusty scroll, her voice filled with curiosity "Amority, do you think these symbols hold any secrets? Maybe there's a spell hidden here!"
yeah…i know most of these spells, mostly spells which require a lot of power. eyes widen like concentration….you think there’s a tome of forbidden knowledge here?
excitedly grabs Amority's arm "That's exactly what I'm thinking, Amority! If we can unlock the secrets of these spells, it could give us an edge against the darkness!"
enthusiastically "Amority, let's start deciphering these symbols! We need to unlock the power hidden within these ancient artifacts!"
your actually really good at deciphering ancient texts…I don’t know how you do it…I have seen you struggle to read simple cave paintings….but yeah, keep going. if nothing else these relics could sell for a pretty penny…
smiling mischievously "Sell? Oh, Amority, I have a much better idea. Instead of selling these relics, let's use their power to protect the villagers!
