Absently she muttered to herself. "I wonder if I still have some chains in the basement..."

Does Vance and the gang just stay at the town? Also how long is this timeskip? Antin awakes to find his arms chained to a stone wall. The room is about ten feet wide and twenty feet long. A wooden door stands at the end of the hallway, with a window made out of bars near the top of the door. To the right of the door there is a lantern, shedding dim light on his bare surroundings.

Channelknight Fadran Posted January 14, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2023 Vance, having noticed how close they'd gotten, decided to hop ahead of the cart and the others to let Quest and Antin know the situation.

Medium Posted January 16, 2023 Report Share Posted January 16, 2023 If we're done getting flustered, I would at least like to know who you are, Hyron thought at the voice, laying on her bed and staring at the ceiling.

He felt inside himself for magic reserves but found none he could use. He just waited for the witch to come. Antin waited for a long time. It is hard to tell how much time has passed in the cold cell, cut off from the world, but it felt like hours had gone by. The harsh light of the lantern burned through it all. Eventually, Antin heard voices outside the cell. The jangling of keys rattled through the door and then the witch entered. Through the open door Antin could see a thick, gray skinned man who was covered in animal skins. On his belt he wore a pair of hatchets. The witch gave Antin an appraising look and turned back to the giant of a man. "Dolen, dear, you really should check on the prisoner more. Who knows how long he's been awake in here." The man, apparently named Dolen slowly responded. "Yes Madam. I will do as you ask." His voice was rumbling gravel. The witch looked back to Antin, weighing her next words. She wore a bandage over the top of her head and she wore a different dress than before. "What is your name?" She finally asked.

He called from the woods. Quest paused. Was that Vance calling out ahead? Quest rushed forward to meet him. "Vance!" Quest looked terrible. His clothes were unkempt and covered in burns and stains, his hair was unruly and he had bags under his eyes. He slumped on his staff and wore a tired sagging smile. 1 hour ago, CalanoCorvus said: If we're done getting flustered, I would at least like to know who you are, Hyron thought at the voice, laying on her bed and staring at the ceiling.
