The Dragon quest - An adventure
Posted: Mon Aug 19, 2002 10:33 pm
I lit my torch, then continued to follow the goblin that had just stolen my small bag of money, into the forest..
As he got deeper the terrain seemed hardened, and it got darker and darker..
But what this goblin didn't not know, was that the "man" he had just thieved was infact a Drow, a ranger who saw perfectly clear in the dark..
Soon the goblin got tired, and I caught up with him..
I silently krept up behind the goblin whó was sitting behind a rock, trying to catch his breath.
-Who is your leader?! I shouted at the goblin..
-L-l-le-eader?? The Goblin said shaking of fright..
- WHO IS YOUR LEADER! I shouted even louder, now strengthening my grip around the goblins neck..
-I have no leader....
-No leader you say? I now strengthend my grip even more, feeling that the goblins neck would snap any minute...
-Ahhh, my neck, my neck! the goblin shouted...."I will tell, i will tell" please leave my neck alone, please..
-I will show sir, i will show...
So I ripped off a piece of my black robe, and tied one end to the goblins wrist, and the other to my own....
-Now walk, you ugly slime, I said
After some time, we came to a grassy hill, deep in the forest, and on the top of this hill, there was a hole, a rabbits hole.............so it seemed..
There, the goblin stopped....
-Hmm, why did you stop, goblin, keep walking....
-T-t-h-h-iiis is i-it he said, still shaking..
The goblin then walked to the closest tree, knocked three times, and the hole seemed to become wider..
The goblin then said: Come, down here, and pointed towards the staircase that was inside the hole..
After a while we came into what seemed to be a tavern, gold and other valuables on the table, and infront of every pile of valuables there sat a new goblin, proudly gazing upon what he had just stolen..
But as we entered the room, all heads turned and all the eyes in the room, where now looking at the black hooded, tall character that had just walked in with a fellow goblin..
The whispering started, and you could pick up some small sentences here and there:
".....bringing humans to our lair, is he stupid?"
"...he couldnt find any gold, so he kidnapped someone?"
-WHAT IS ALL THIS NOISE ABOUT?! shouted a loud voice from the back..
And everything went silent..
I went along the rows of tables to the end of the room where I saw a fat little goblin sitting in a big golden armchair...
-What is your buisness here human?, the goblin asked...
-One of your henchemen tried to steal me of my small piece of gold, so i followed him here to see who was organizing this crime...
The leader started speaking in some foreign language to the scared thief..
Then, the leader looked at the two guards standing on each side of him, and all 3 nodded..
The 2 guards then went and cut the piece of cloth connecting the us by the wrists..
-And second of all, please dont call me human.... I then removed my hood and revealed my dark elven face..
"Ooooooohhhhh" everyone said at once and a cold chill seemed to go through the room..
-A drow, i have never seen one myselfe, but from what i have heard, i wouldnt wish for this in my wildest nightmares, said the leader....
-I will do anything, if you would just leave us in peace, please mister drow...
-Anything you say? I said while grinning evily
- First of all i want something to eat, and perhaps take a small nap...THEN i wish to take a look in your treasure room....
-We-e-ll, guess that could be arranged..
-Ahhh, splended, absolutely splended..
Behind many hidden doors, traps and locks we finally came into the treasure room....filled with gold and other ancient artefacts...
A pile of books then directly caught my attention, i ran over there to see what these were, since i had felt so drawn to them..
These scrolls seemed untouched...so i asked, what these scrolls were, and from where they had come from..
It showed later on, that it was the goblin that had try to thief me that had stolen these scrolls from an old mage..
I saw that the script was one of the ancient ones, that was why these grumpy stupid goblins hadn't touched them..
Opening the first of the 5 scrolls, i heard some echo in the air that seemed to say Orrrr, and after reading this scroll, i then understood that what i had heard in the background was the word Orl, which was the ancient rune for summoning, i now understood how to create this rune...so i read the second one, which contained information of the rune Ra, which was the rune of fire..and after a couple of hours i also learned how to create this rune..
As i went through the 3:d and 4:th i learned of the runes (ghost) which was the ancient word for ghosts and Luk the rune of evil..
The fifth, spoke about the "missing scroll"....the scroll about how to control a dragon....
I got interested in this...
While i had 3 goblins sleeping outside the treasure room door, i was stuck infront of thesescrolls, so interesting these were....only the essence of these scrolls were almost binding..
Reading, day in, and day out, trying to find out where to start the search for the missing scroll..
-Coffee please! i need coffee i shouted...i had not slept for 4 days, and i was starting to get sleepy as i was not getting anywhere in the search....
They came with the coffee i had asked for, but the clumbsy goblin spilled the coffee over the scroll and it started to switch colours.....
(This is where i will sit back, and listen to your end of the story, Ooc: I will submit my end after i have read some of yours)
It will be interesting......
