It seemed such a simple plan...
All they had to do was break into a
barrow on some old burial ground, get whatever treasures were there, and head
back to civilization to cash it in.
Really, a simple plan...
Unfortunately, there was something
Terrick and his companions didn't count on, the place was crawling with undead and they weren't too happy with this sudden intrusion. Terrick barely made it
out with his life. In the process he had to abandon his companions, but hey,
that was life.
Nearby there was a small village, more a trade outpost really. Terrick would head that way and make his way out
of the Black Forest by the main wagon trail that the merchants used.
Really, a
simple plan...
This time, there was something else
Terrick hadn't counted on, the undead had followed him. Not only that, but
they were doing a bloody good job slaughtering everyone in the outpost.
Terrick figured that the necklace he stole
from the barrow must have been worth something if the barrow-wight was sending
its minions after him.
After a few days of fighting at
night alongside what was left of the folk here, Terrick realized he needed to
put a few days between himself and this place. Luckily for him, some
adventurers were just arriving. Time to turn-on the charm and then sneak away
while these newcomers got slaughtered.
A
simple but crafty plan...
But Terrick hadn't counted on a few
things this time:
He hadn't counted on the fact that
the adventurers would actually defeat the undead...
He hadn't counted on the adventurers
being able to make enough Life Water to destroy the barrow-wight...
He hadn't counted on the adventurers
being able to find him out for what he was...
And most of all, he hadn't counted
on you!
Welcome to Stygian Dreams, hero. The world will be needing you...
