New page

You weave the spell, although you cannot be certain what it will do, or even if it ''is'' a spell. But then, the sand by your feet begins to shine and glow. You stand back to watch, as a golden stalk as thick as your arm grows tall – bursting out of the sand, and soaring up into the sky.

Soon, there is a tower of gold stretching all the up the cliff. You grab hold of the towering strand, and it whisks you away upwards at speed! Within heartbeats you are near the top of the cliff once more, and jump down onto the earth.

The golden tower disappears, shrinking away out of sight. But as it fades, the wind strums and it begins to sing. You can only just catch the words:

''In a long empty mine roams a terrible beast,''

''Whose slaying it will be your duty, in time,''

''But should you meet early in mines to the west,''

''Creep inward and turn her – remember this rhyme!''

Perhaps you will discover what it means: but now, it is time to go. Your long journey awaits.

Coming down a low rise you hear voices ahead, and the crackle of a fire. You crouch down into the low grass and listen. There are two voices, gruff and crude.

"I hear it's today or the next day," says one. "They've given him fifty gold pieces, I hear."

"Easy pickings," the others replies. "Two of us and only one of him. Enough to buy a boat."

Do you:
*[[Keep listening to the voices]]
*[[Approach them]]
*[[Find a way around]]
