Scene 3: Blades of Avernum Forum
Ephesos, Dikiyoba, Dintiradan, and GoldenKing enter.
Ephesos: Look for herbs that are useful for making energy potions.
Dikiyoba: Okay, Ephesos.
While the other three Spiderwebbers search, Dintiradan slips off to the destroyed town in the mountains. When he gets there, he looks around in disappointment.
Dintiradan: Humph. It's completely destroyed. And completely useless to me now.
The thing slinks down a path towards him.
Dintiradan: Oh well. I'm sure I can think of a better evil scheme this time around, anyway.
The thing accidentally bumps a pebble, sending it rolling down the path. The thing immediately hides. As the pebble rolls by Dintiradan, he looks around.
Dintiradan: Wait. I didn't violate any Evil Overlord rules by coming up here, did I?
Dintiradan pulls out his Evil Overlord Guidebook and begins flipping through it. The thing begins to crawl towards Dintiradan once more.
Dintiradan: Oh great. It's right here: "I will not go off on my own, in order to prevent myself from being an easy target for the thing." The thing? What is the thing?
The thing: Vtfcdrxwa!
The thing suddenly leaps at Dintiradan. Dintiradan turns and sees it a moment before it hits him.
Dintiradan: Ahhhhhhhhh!
Dintiradan falls over unconscious. His yell echoes across the forum. Down on a small hill, Dikiyoba and GoldenKing hand the herbs that they picked over to Ephesos. Suddenly, they all look up.
Ephesos: Did anyone else just hear a scream?
Dikiyoba: Dikiyoba heard it, Ephesos.
Ephesos: That's what I was afraid of. Let's see what it was.
Ephesos, Dikiyoba, and GoldenKing hike up into the mountains until they come across the comatose Dintiradan. Ephesos casts unshackle mind. Dintiradan opens his eyes and sits up.
Dintiradan: Its the thing!
GoldenKing: I told u theres a thing.
Ephesos and Dikiyoba look around nervously, but the thing has left the scene once more.
Dikiyoba: Dikiyoba wishes Dikiyoba had a weapon now.
Ephesos: The next time that thing attempts something, there will be some serious retribution! In the meantime, let's go back and report this to the others. Besides, I have enough herbs to make several energy potions now.
The four Spiderwebbers hike down from the mountains and exit the forum quickly.
