In which Theo climbs a mountain

<yzabtech> ==START==
<yzabtech> You go not across the waterfall, but through the waterfall.
<yzabtech> There's a pathway you can narrowly fit through.
<yzabtech> Roll Acrobatics.
<Theodore> 8
<Theodore> :o
<yzabtech> You barely fit through, but you fall on your way in.
<yzabtech> It's a small cave. Dark, with a beam of light shining in through the waterfall. The beam of light lands on a black snake-like creature in the far corner.
<yzabtech> It looks quite angry that you stepped into its abode.
<yzabtech> Gain a full heal since I have no idea where that lost HP came from.
<yzabtech> Then roll initiative.

<yzabtech> Go peek for yourself.
<Theodore> I do
<Theodore> perception?
<yzabtech> No perception needed.
<yzabtech> You look into the lake.
<yzabtech> Past your own reflection, you see a pile of bones. Through the ripples in the water, they appear to shake.
<Theodore> Undead? Hell ya.
<Theodore> I draw my sword
<yzabtech> They slowly rise to the top, and reform into... something.
<yzabtech> It looks like a dragon.
<yzabtech> A gray aura surrounds the reformed skeleton, holding it together.

<yzabtech> You can choose a specialization.
<Theodore_> true
<Theodore_> If i chose performance, would that get added to damage?
<yzabtech> i'm gonna have to say no to doing that
<Theodore_> kk
<Theodore_> i think i'll still probably get peformance
<Theodore_> would poetry go under performance?
<Theodore_> id assume so
<yzabtech> yeah

<Theodore_> Alright, is there a path around hte lake?
<yzabtech> No.
<Theodore_> Okay, I see how well I can swim in the shallow end
<yzabtech> Terribly. Your heavy armor makes you sink.
<Theodore_> Damn. I captchalogue it and try again.
<yzabtech> You still can't manage to swim in it.
<Theodore_> Shite.
<yzabtech> You'll still have to get across.
<Theodore_> Do I have rope/
<yzabtech> Maybe through means that aren't normally possible.
<Theodore_> Okay fair.
<Theodore_> I center myself and take a step onto the water.
<yzabtech> I'm going to ask you a question.
<yzabtech> Do you believe this will work, Theodore?
<yzabtech> Deep down, do you truly believe that you may walk across the lake to the other side?
<Theodore_> Theodore believes in one thing above all else.
<Theodore_> Himself
<Theodore_> He takes a step
<yzabtech> You take a step onto the water. Your foot floats, and balances.
<Theodore_> Another.
<yzabtech> Your other foot floats, and balances.
<Theodore_> I march across the lake.
<yzabtech> You arrive at the other side without any issue.
<Theodore_> Goddamn I am awesome.
<Theodore_> I look up hte path.
<yzabtech> Just a bit more to the peak.
<Theodore_> I walk to the peak!
<yzabtech> You keep walking. Before you know it, you're floating.
<Theodore_> Huh. Well, walking hasnt been a problem thus far, so I keep going.
<yzabtech> You rise above the dark clouds, to a clearer sky.
<yzabtech> You see more of the angels you saw before, the glowing white beings that streak through the sky.
<Theodore_> "ANGELS"
<Theodore_> "I AM THEODORE."
<Theodore_> "I HAVE A REQUEST"
<yzabtech> The angels whisper amongst themselves in echoing voices.
<yzabtech> They appear to be listening.
<Theodore_> "I must speak with Abraxas."
<Theodore_> "The consorts below are suffering. As a knight, I must assist them."
<Theodore_> "Help me find and defeat Abraxas, and you can return to the earth."
<yzabtech> "Knight of Hope, who crossed the pond, Seventh Gate he lies beyond."
<yzabtech> "Abraxas rests in peaceful slumber, done with land he's torn asunder."
<Theodore_> "Thank you angels."
<Theodore_> "Is there any further assistance you can grant me?"
<yzabtech> "Above your dwelling, gates sevenfold, journey through for the secrets they hold."
<Theodore_> "I see. Thank you angels. I have one final request."
<Theodore_> "A single feather, to assist me in my quest."
<yzabtech> "Why a feather, do you seek, upon this yonder mountain peek?"
<yzabtech> peak*
<Theodore_> "This land allows me to enhance my arms. Your feather shall allow me to bring them to greater forms."
<Theodore_> "In truth, angels, I am not much of a rhymer."
<yzabtech> A single feather falls from the sky.
<Theodore_> "Thank you."
<Theodore_> I take the feather and kneel, displaying my sword.
<Theodore_> "I will defeat Abraxas and bbring justice to this land."
<yzabtech> "We thank you, Knight of Hope."
<yzabtech> A gate appears in front of you, much like the one you saw above your house.
<Theodore_> I walk through it.
<yzabtech> You're back at your house.
<yzabtech> Also a girl's there.
<yzabtech> ==END==
