I equip my sword!
You equip your sword as you step onto the arena!
Stand in a large, flat area, with tatters of clothing and the occasional old deady body lieing about. The crowd cheers from afar.
Your opponent stands across from you, he is in old peasant clothing, His head has wraps around it, covering his face, with only a small slit to see through, his hands and feet are wrapped similarly. The referee, with his black and white clothing, stands between you.
The referee speaks,
"Alright, fight!"

The Arena guards escort you back to the lobby.
"Sorry about your loss, he's a tough one, said he's got a magic pendant from Rorschach, the god of Obfuscation, that doubles his health. He's become a crowd favorite though, so I'm more than happy to tolerate it. just rolled in earlier today. Better luck next time!"
What do you do?
(( Oh I still got my GCS silk, right? ))
Well, I'm trying to find a babbling dwarf, let him make an artifact, and then take that from him as his token of thanks, so as tempting as opening that hatch is, I doubt he'll be there. Try another way.
You spend some time exploring the cave, you find mostly dead ends, but you finally come across the Dwarven Settlement.
You quickly head over to the workshop!
"SPIDER SILK!"
The babbling dwarf rips the silk from your hands, and then starts working furiously.
You wait for some time, then he displays his newest work proudly,
"Haha! I have made Igestthebil Zelersolon Kednath, an artifact thong! I have you to thank for saving my sanity from the spirit that possessed me. You can have this artifact Thong I made!"
He gives you the artifact thong.
What do you do?
Shit.
I escape by boat. And pray to extremus to set fire to the port.
You escape by boat, you try praying to Extremus to set the port on fire, but Extremus is most likely to help in boring situations, not exciting ones.
You are floating on Pistil River.
