They Slid Down Into The Dungeon And Hit The Hard Concrete Floor. Skeletons Lay In The Corner And Rats Could Be Heard, Busying Around The Dungeon Floor.
Grindall Stood Up, Bedraggled.
<font color="white">You Guys Alright?</font>
The 3 People Who were crouched on the floor Gave A Few Moans.
<font color="white">Man, That Was A Damn Rough Ride</font>

The four adventurers had been caught. They were a group of Adventurers from Gorten, a Shipping Town From Down The coast. Gorten was a poor town, with little or no oppertunities to be had, this had become the reason, they had decided to try and break into Koperren Castle. Kopperen Castle Was Apparently Abandoned. But While The foursome had been pushing valubles into their sacks, it had begun to seem occupied. Shadows moved across the walls, paintings seemed to follow them round the room, and statues were never in the same place twice. It was on the 3rd floor, when they had all blacked out, and landed on the dungeon floor.

Grindall pulled himself over to the slit window near the celing and looked around. Nothing but darkness. Then, He Turned And Walked To The Door.

<font color="white">Locked... Damn</font>

One Of His Fellow Theives Gave A Mutter, And Stumbled To Their Feet. Grindall went to Help Them Up, But At That Moment, The Door Swung Open.....

Fielderaan twirled his moustache - with luck our newcomer will be a most attractive lady. They have no resistance to the charms of moi

Of course, it could also be a brick sh**-house ogre about to cave our heads in, in which case I hide

Neb clutched at his head and tried to concentrate, he had a headache the likes of which he had never felt before, he was vagueley aware that someone had opened the door, he would have to get his mind together, to concentrate, otherwise he would be unable to wield his psionic powers, and without those he was defenceless....

Sighing resignedly, she inserts the key into the slot and unlocks the door silently. ~ Why me?... ~ She turns the knob and the door swings open inward.

Her emerald green eyes glance around the dark and damp room, and she counts four intruders, some of them in a groggy state. Lips curling into a somewhat cynical smirk, she shakes her head gently ~ They never learn...

Snapping back to reality, she addresses the one twirling his moustache ~ "I suppose you've come in search of treasure... who are you?" ~ As she speaks, a blast of chilly air surges through the corridor behind her, and a wisp of her brown hair flutters.

phewee!!

"I'm dreadfully sorry for this unwanted intrusion, my dear. I am Fielderaan. These are my friends. Unfortunately circumstances find us in this unorthodox profession. Risky I know, and foolish, but that is partly due to our most unfortunate upbringings. I was an orphan don't you know."

"I most humbly apologise on behalf of myself and my friends. If we have inconvenienced you in any way, I would be most glad to make it up to you. At your say-so ~kisses the lady's hand~ we shall be on our way and not bother you anymore than is absolutely necessary"

Her eyes narrow at his attempt at gallantry ~ Yet another charmer ~ Lips twitching imperceptibly, she turns to cast another glance at his companions.

"You're lucky that my master is not around... yet I am held responsible for this castle's security." ~ She pauses, her eyes glittering brilliantly in the darkness ~ "Your departure would leave me in grave danger, for my master is not one to tolerate error." ~ She steps back, scrutinising his expression at her next words ~ "I leave it to your conscience, gentlemen, to do so." ~ There is no mistaking the tone of challenge in her voice.

Oops

Neb leaned over to Grindall and whispered, "I say we get out of here as fast as we can, if you worry about the safety of that lady however, maybe we can bring her along? Though we might have to keep Fielderaan away from her...."

"Young lady, mayhaps we could escort you safely from here. I honestly would not want my compatriots to harm you, or be harmed, in our bid to escape here. And who is this master you far so much?"

Her eyes had darted to stare at the two other whispering prisoners. But at Fielderaan's voice, she had turned back to face him.

She now chews her lips thoughtfully, furrows forming on her brows. Her eyes cloud momentarily, before regaining their natural shade. Clenching her fists, she inhales deeply before replying ~ "I suppose I shall let you go after all, on one condition." ~ Her lashes flutter ~ "You'll have to take me along." ~

With that, she falls silent, awaiting their reply.

(ooc: If you wish to take off on the adventure, please drag my character along. It's almost bedtime for me. Bye all and see ya tomorrow :D )
