CHAPTER 1
"If we get out of here...We will need to go far away!" he huffs. "I say we take what we can from here and leave this blasted keep behind!"
"Then...we abandon the post?" you say
"I care not for the post, not for this godforsaken waste!" the metalizing sound echoes "The Hand will cleave us both! Might as well throw it away... to the dogs"
"Then where do we go?" the noose disappears from your hands
He looks deeply into the tunnel below:
"We go into Orlin, and then, if the city is not overtaken yet, through the Smuggler's Passage..."
"And then?"
"And then we go our separate ways! Bah, myself? I will drink and enjoy not being stuck here, at the end of the world!" he huffs "But we must make distance from this horde...their numbers...I fear more will sprout from the Earth!"
"Surely they will overtake us if we travel by the main road"
"You need not worry...There is a passage, in this very city; aye, more holes than a wine barrel. Fortress... I say it is a deathtrap! They dug a passage through the 'sacred' temple of Thorax! I saw them marching, they trampled the gate flat!"
He takes a deep breath as if to swallow the whole city
"We shall go through the catacombs. The tunnel they've dug up extends deeply yes, but there, below the temple, is a passage only I know about, and that only I have the key; for it was built with this exact moment in thought!"
