Scene 2: Tech Support Forum
Scene 2: Tech Support Forum DikiyobaThe forum is full of injured members. Most are newbs but there are many older members as well. Ephesos can hardly keep up. Slartucker is sitting besides Tyranicus' bed. Dintiradan enters, helping an injured newb along. Ephesos drinks an energy potion and hurries over.
Ephesos: What's the problem with him, Dintiradan?
Dintiradan: Gashed leg. Shouldn't be too big a problem.
Ephesos: I've drunk all the energy potions I can find but I don't have much energy left. We'll have to wait until Dikiyoba returns from the Avernum Trilogy with more herbs.
Just then, Dikiyoba enters with a pack full of herbs.
Dikiyoba: Dikiyoba has the herbs you need, Ephesos.
Ephesos: Thank goodness.
Ephesos takes the herbs from Dikiyoba and makes a healing potion, which he gives to the newb.
Ephesos: Drink this and then find someplace to rest for a while. You'll feel better soon.
The newb drinks the potion and then staggers off. Ephesos takes some graymold and begins making a salve. Slartucker rushes over.
Slartucker: Ephesos, Tyranicus looks worse. Isn't there anything else you can do for him?
Ephesos shrugs and continues making the salve.
Ephesos: I've already cast my strongest healing spell, used first aid, and given him a graymold salve. There's nothing else I can do.
Slartucker looks disappointed and goes back to his watch at Tyranicus' bedside. Tyranicus looks at Slartucker strangely.
Tyranicus: Slarty, I... I can see the sidhe from the other side of the portal. They're... they're welcoming me.
Tyranicus dies.
Slartucker: Tyran! Come back!
Ephesos, Dikiyoba, Dintiradan, and a few curious newbs come over.
Ephesos: It's no good, Slarty.
Slartucker rushes out.
Dikiyoba: Poor Tyranicus.
Dintiradan: Yeah.
Dikiyoba: Dikiyoba wonders who will keep the chat logs now.
Ephesos casts some sort of holy charm over Tyranicus' body. It vanishes in a flash of white light.
Ephesos: At least now there is no danger of him ever becoming an undead.
Lenar Labs sits up in his bed unexpectedly.
Lenar Labs: I'm leaving now.
Dintiradan: Lenar Labs! You're okay!
Lenar Labs: No. No I am not. And I am Lord Grimm now. Without the Silent Assassin, Lenar Labs cannot exist. I must go avenge him now.
Lord Grimm stands up. Ephesos steps forward to stop him. Lord Grimm pulls out a large, bladed disk crackling with magical energy and points it at Ephesos.
Dintiradan: (Whispers) What is that?
Dikiyoba: (Whispers) Dikiyoba thinks that would be called a reaperdisk.
Lord Grimm: I must go now, Ephesos. Please don't try to stop me, or I will be forced to kill you.
Ephesos backs off.
Ephesos: All right. It's your life.
Lord Grimm conjures a black robe and a scythe out of nowhere. Then he exits.
Ephesos: What's the problem with him, Dintiradan?
Dintiradan: Gashed leg. Shouldn't be too big a problem.
