Role Play- A Plague in Psaral.

[DezNutz]

The time for thinking is over. Nelly stands in front of Gregory presenting the chalice with the elixir. Gregory takes the chalice and holds it with two hands and examines the chalice. The chalice is exquisitely decorated with jewels, but the rim is still thin like a razor. A beautiful peace of art. Nelly sees the hesitation and states

Drink and become one with us.

Gregory takes a deep breath in. Time seems to slow down. In an instant, Gregory rotates the chalice and thrusts it rim first into the chest of the cultist, who was carrying the cauldron, just to the left of Nelly. The thrust was done with such force that the rim slices through the cloak, the mans skin and his bones like a sword just swinging through the air.

Nelly and the other cultists start to show horror in their eyes as they begin to react to the sight before them. Nelly starts to step backwards away from Gregory. The sound of bone crunching and breaking is almost deafening.

Gregory continues to thrust forward as he rotates the chalice into the mans chest further. The cultist makes a small gurgle as his eyes bugout. Gregory releases his grip from the chalice as the man begins to fall backward, dead.

Time seemingly returns to normal, a mere two second has passed. Nelly has made a full step back from Gregory and continues to step away. She screams out.

GET HIM!!

Gregory takes a stance and begins to fight the cultists that charge toward him. Out numbered, Gregory knows that he won't be able to fight them all off even if Jack and Aeron were to assist, and will most likely be captured.

[Jack Teach]

Out steps jack, a pistol in each hand. He fires them both, killing two cultists. He draws his cutlass and rushes the enemy, expertly killing several.

[D00T]

Aeron draws his sword, and attacks the cutlists

[Meliva]

Nelly looks absolutely enraged. She takes out a crystal, and shouts quite loudly.

Hope your last meal was a good one. Cause it was your last.

She shatters the crystal as she chants some words, and a bright light flashes blinding everyone. When all can see again, Jack, Aeron and Greg realize they are no longer in the warehouse, but a dirty smelly cave. Looking around they see in horror dead bodies, all emaciated. A man in the corner, barely conscious looks upon them quite sadly. He wheezes.

I guess you made the cult mad too. They use this small cave to trap people who anger them. Where they slowly starve to death. I been here for 3 weeks, I tried digging my way out, but I can't tell where the closest exit is, so I have no idea if I came close to escaping or just further into the pit. Good luck to you all. Your gonna need it.

The man takes a final breath before finally dying. Near him is a somewhat long tunnel, though it ends in a dead end. There doesn't seem to be any tools to help with digging. Ellen's voice is heard though its faint.

You should be more careful in the future. Ill see if I can get help to get you out of there. I suggest you start trying to dig your way out though. It may take a while for me to get more help.

[DezNutz]

Greg surveys his surroundings

Well this is quaint.

[Jack Teach]

Jack walks to the dead end, he looks at it very carefully.

I believe that that poor soul was digging in the right direction.

[D00T]

Aeron starts digging

[DezNutz]

What makes you so sure?

[Jack Teach]

Well, for one, it's dirt, and not stone, it may take days to break through.

[Meliva]

A loud thumping noise can be heard from beyond the tunnel. It gets louder and louder until a stone hand smashes through it. A few moments later a golem comes into the tunnel clearing a path. It appears its the same one Emily gave Jack quite some time ago. It opens its mouth and Emily's voice comes out.

You know, if i wanted this golem to collect dust, id have kept it with me and put it in a closet, not give it to someone who constantly gets in trouble. Your just lucky the damn thing knows how to find you, and Ellen gave me a heads up about your situation. Try to be careful with that Nelly woman. She seems to have some nasty tricks up her sleeves. And please, make use of this golem. If you dont intend to, just send it back to me. I could use it for my current project. Also, Carl should be in the local tavern, he decided he wanted to help you out. I suggest you regroup there.
