Scene 4: Avernum 4 Forum
Scene 4: Avernum 4 Forum
About the time that Delicious Vlish is revived in the Tech Support Forum, Nikki, Stew Boy, Sir David, and Tyranicus enter the Avernum 4 Forum. Tyranicus is carrying a bow.
Nikki: Thanks for coming with us, Tyranicus.
Tyranicus: It beats having to clean up the Announcements Forum. I just hope I don't miss seeing Jumpin' Salmon snipe Bomber and Lord Llama. He's threatened to do so four times already.
Nikki: Now, where should we start looking for the thing at?
Stew Boy: The lowest level of this forum. I imagine that the thing likes to hide in dark places.
Tyranicus: Sounds good.
Nikki, Sir David, Tyranicus, and Stew Boy climb down to the lowest level.
Nikki: It's really dark down here. How will we see anything?
Sir David draws his flaming sword. The flames provide just enough light to light up the passage.
Sir David: Shall we move on?
Nikki: Yes, let's start searching.
While Nikki, Sir David, Stew Boy, and Tyranicus search for the thing on the lowest level, Ephesos, Dikiyoba, and Student of Trinity enter on the main level. Infernal666hate also enters and starts looking for an anvil and the tools necessary to reforge demonslayer. Ephesos and Dikiyoba try to walk through the forum as quickly as possible, but they often have to stop and wait for Student of Trinity. Student of Trinity keeps pausing to pick up rocks.
Ephesos: Come on, Student of Trinity. There will be plenty of time for you to collect rocks in the Blades of Avernum Forum.
Student of Trinity: Can't you collect herbs here instead?
Ephesos: I would, except that it's too dark to see anything easily.
Student of Trinity: All right. I'm coming.
Ephesos, Dikiyoba, and Student of Trinity exit. Infernal666hate finds a small forge and starts searching for tools. Everything is available except for a pair of tongs.
Infernal666hate: Y in their ever an pear on tons hen ewe near then?
After several minutes of searching, Infernal666hate gives up and picks up a set of pincers instead.
Infernal666hate: Clue efreet.
Back in the lowest level, Sir David rounds a bend in the passageway. Nikki halts uncertainly.
Nikki: Hey! Where's Stew Boy?
Nikki and Tyranicus turn and look back.
Stew Boy: I'm right here.
Nikki: Don't lag behind so much or the thing might get you.
Nikki rounds the corner and promptly trips over Sir David, lying unconscious on the ground. Nikki scrambles up.
Nikki: Sir David?
Tyranicus pulls out his bow and looks around.
Tyranicus: He was only ahead of us for a moment. How could the thing strike so quickly?
Sir David wakes up and gets to his feet.
Sir David: \/\/|-|47 |-|4993|\|3|)?
Nikki: You were attacked by the thing.
Sir David: 0|-|.
Sir David picks up his flaming sword.
Tyranicus: Now what?
Nikki: We keep searching, I guess.
Nikki: Thanks for coming with us, Tyranicus.
