The Longest Thread (Misadventures)

[NameIess]

The dripping grew louder, and an indistinct shape appeared in the shadows ahead.

[The Wandering Wizard he/him]

The Eizard threw the chakram of intuition at the indistinct shape.

[NameIess]

The chakram revealed a hulking shape with a massive horned head.

[The Wandering Wizard he/him]

The chakram streaked back towards the Eizard's hand and Eizard readies the bow of truth.

[NameIess]

The shape leapt from the shadows towards the Eizard, revealing itself to be a massive warrior in armor made from the bones of a dragon.

[That1Cellist he/him]

"Wait, what business do you have with us!" The Cellist shouts.

[NameIess]

The warrior grabbed the bow of truth from the Eizard and snapped it in half, then turned towards Cellist. "Who dares trespass here?"

[The Bookwyrm he/him]

"We just need a key," Bookwyrm said. "Can you help us? Once we have the key, we can leave."

[NameIess]

The warrior froze, then spun towards Bookwyrm. "Bookwyrm? What are you doing here?"

[The Wandering Wizard he/him]

The Eizard regrows and curses the warrior out in an untranslateable language.

[That1Cellist he/him]

"Wait, you know each other?" The Cellist gasps. "How?"

[NameIess]

The warrior lifted her helm, revealing herself to be a woman unfamiliar to Cellist.

The Eizard eyes the warrior warily. "Were you at the battle of Xolt?"

The woman looked surprised. "As a matter of fact, yes. Were you? Not many know about that battle."

"Yessss, I was there. I remember a warrior in silver armor who fought by our side. The odds were not in our favor. The other side had us outnumbered 100 to 1. We were doomed and then you appeared."

"Yes, it was a rather doomed battle. I'm glad I was able to save a few of your people, even if we did eventually lose."

I'm guessing this warrior is Moni? If it isn't, tell me, and I'll correct this.

"Moni?" Bookwyrm asked. "Nameless was looking for you. He split up with us saying he could find you himself."

Esmerelda gave Bookwyrm an odd look. "Really? I look nothing like Moniker. And she isn't the type to wear armor made of bones anyway. What are you doing here?"

Bookwyrm's eyes grew wide. 

"Esmeralda? We were helping Eof look for you, but then got separated! How'd you get here? Where are your kids?"

Esmerelda frowned. "You were helping Eof? But...never mind. We can speak on this later. For now, we need to work on getting out of here. With your help, obtaining the key to exit should be easy enough."

"A good name. As Bookwyrm indicated, my name is Esmerelda."
