The brave adventurer groaned again. “Why am I on the storming list? I’ve done basically nothing. I’ve got no powers of note, no skills of note, and I’m not all that smart either! Why would you want to kill me?”

Statistics show that blacksmiths tend to be threats to plans.

The brave adventurer mutters a curse to whatever Narrator has gotten him into this mess, then steps out into the hallway and begins moving towards the end of it, deflecting arrows as he goes.

The hallway began to narrow as he went, threatening to crush him. Eerie laughter followed him, coming from shadowy figures that seemed without form, reaching towards him with ethereal fingers, bent to drag him to his doom. Ah, description, my old friend.

The brave adventurer picks up speed, sword moving with blurring speed and impossible precision as he slices through both shadow and arrow that try to reach him.

The ethereal figures melted into darkness, going through the stones. The walls slammed into each other and into him, as the arrows failed. But, instead of smashing him to pieces, the adventurer who wanted to be a blacksmith was in a quiet village. Too quiet. Empty of all lifeforms, all activity, and all noise except for a faint wind.

Ghanderflaffle she/her Posted July 15, 2023 Posted July 15, 2023 He discovered that there were no windows, simply paintings of windows on every wall.

Weaver of Shadows he/him Posted July 15, 2023 Posted July 15, 2023 (edited) The corpse moved, standing. It was in poor shape, it’s legs twisted at odd angles, but that didn’t seem to slow it as it shambled toward the adventurer. Edited July 15, 2023 by Lightweaver2

The corpse stumbled, arms falling on the adventurer's feet, grasping onto them until it turned into dust, the whispers seeming to grow louder and louder. The dust swirl around in the air, a red glow flowing through it.

The dust formed a dome around him, ever twisting around and moving. Made of dust, a figure about knee height walked out of the wall, drawing an intricate sword from its back. It was the figure of a man in a t-shirt and jeans. He had a resemblance to... Spook. He stabbed the adventurer's ankle. The figure melted away, the dust flying back into the dome. Where the sword had struck, it would feel like icy flames licking all along the adventurer's leg.

Weaver of Shadows he/him Posted July 16, 2023 Posted July 16, 2023 (edited) He sees no evidence of a wound, but his leg still burns, though not as badly as it had moments ago. Edit: 100th post! Edited July 16, 2023 by Lightweaver2
SmilingPanda19 Any! Posted July 17, 2023 Posted July 17, 2023 The burning area would give off a faint green glow, and it would seem to pulse continuously with a slow, throbbing, and stinging burning sensation.
Weaver of Shadows he/him Posted July 17, 2023 Posted July 17, 2023 The adventurer ignored his pain and continued, trying to find meaning in the place he had found himself. He walked through the village, but found nothing. The wind’s whispers died away.

The village was mostly empty, except for the wind as said before and some carvings in the walls of the houses and the floors.
