A Dangerous Discovery

Posted by Kim on April 25, 2023, 1:28pm

Our scouts have made an important discovery...

The Hero and Princess are climbing the cliffs. They pull themselves up onto a ledge and find themselves facing a cave.

They go inside tentatively. With a lit torch, they find paintings on a wall of an egg bathed in glowing energy. In the next painting, it hatches into a Struth child.

Princess: This is what that Struth sage was telling us… It’s the energy of this island that made the Struth what they are today.

Hero: Right. If they aren’t laid here, in the energy field of the island, their eggs hatch into just regular flightless birds. That’s why there are so few of them left.

Princess: Wait… could that mean?

A lizard assassin appears in silhouette at the mouth of the cave. They whirl to meet him, pulling their weapons. Other lizards emerge out of the darkness behind them, brandishing weapons. One Lizard wizard sparks up a fireball in his clawed hand, illuminating his face.

The Hero and Princess exchange a look.

Hero: I guess it worked on the lizards too.

The lizards rush them. They swing their weapons.

In less than 100 years they've developed high levels of metallurgy, chemistry, mineral extraction and language.

We're doomed.
