Turn 84
I guess we will have to wait for a guard to open this cell for us, Fzbxr. I wish Serrana and her spirit were with us. I bet they could help us. - Pguhyuh said to Fzbxr, taking a seat on a cold metal bench.
Well, what better way to pass time than telling stories? I don't think you have talked a lot about your past, have you? Actually, you haven't talked about anything during these days. Is anything wrong?[5]
A demon should never speak out when not asked to. I don't really have a long story, I was born in the village fire and promptly bonded by you. I can tell you what my existence was before my embodiment. - smoke hunter replied, fire burning in his eyes.
I was nothing but a concept, floating in a limbo between the realm of creators and void. Then my body was formed by arcane energy. Village fires spewed me out with one goal - kill. - demon said.
[6] Pguhyuh tried to call guards, so he could persuade them to open their cell. He was successful! An extremely tall and muscular demon with black skin and colourful feathers approached them.
Ah! We have visitors! - the demon exclaimed in excitement, then shouted:
Prepare my tanning equipment! I want their hides![?] Suddenly a strange, otherworldly voice screamed:
Your home city is alive and well; the grand archivists hold the Tome of Creation, the key to your salvation. They will honour you as their hero if you kill that demon![?] After a while of eerie silence another voice shouted. It sounded roughly like Aaron:
Nightfall is coming. The Eclipse approaches. Do not linger, for it is death.
Dennis looks up from his climb at the sound of the massive explosion from above. As the smoke pours from the window, he takes a guess at what just happened with a quick salute.
[1]
No better a way to go, er, What's-Your-Face. I just hope you took him with you. - he said and slowly moved towards courtyard, but the horker returned! It was burning in rage!
[?] Suddenly a creepy, ghastly voice whispered to Dennis' ears:
Free Lysander, the old demon king in his decaying confines! Head to the crypts![?] The same voice then shouted:
Nightfall is never coming back. Take your time![Horker: 4, Dennis: 3] The demon charged at the duke and slammed against him, sending him down the hill again!
[2] The way to Unavented Cathedral takes more time than expected, Reynald still can't see it in the distance!
[?] Suddenly the demonic lord heard a familiar voice, it was Aaron:
Cliber is the foe you must face, to gain the truth.[?] Then another, much heavier voice said:
Nightfall is not coming. The Eclipse is a lie. The world is going to heal itself, shake off the taint and cleanse corruption!
[3] Serrana decided to enter the still active portal. After a brief travel through space and time, she found herself within a perimeter of a demonic fortress, Erlath hid in her halberd to not draw attention of other dark spirits. She was just outside a gate to dungeon.
[?] Like a bolt out of the blue, she heard Aaron's voice:
Erlath is the key to your salvation, and the shrine is your door. Speak with him and you will enter.[?] Then he added:
Nightfall is coming. The Eclipse approaches. Do not linger, for it is death.
