[LUPO SOLITARIO] Libro XVII: The Deathlord of Ixia

[Jesper]

Buttiamo gli inutili Brass Key e Spyglass e procediamo!

The instant you set foot inside the cave entrance, you hear a noise which makes you freeze in your tracks. A ghastly half-gibbering, half-growling sound issues from the dark recesses of the cave—a warning from the creature which dwells here that you are not a welcome visitor. You scan the inky darkness and see the glint of two yellow eyes as they emerge from a fold in the rock wall. Slowly the eyes advance. You use your ability to see in the infrared spectrum of light, in order to discern the outline of this shadowy creature, but it is to no avail. You can detect no heat patterns. The reason for this is simple—the creature now advancing towards you gives off no heat because, like everything else in this wretched land, it is already dead.

If you wish to escape from the cave while you can, turn to 206.

If you choose to draw your weapon and defend yourself, turn to 28.

[Sturm]

Stand and fight! Spadaddiddioooh!

[Bortas]

Qui c'è un istadeath clamorosa, però è tanto che non si muore quindi stand and fight spadadiddio & sguardo spacchiamo tutto il cazzo di tutto.

[Defender]

Chevvelodicoaffà

[Jesper]

As the evil yellow eyes of the creature slowly draw closer, you are suddenly engulfed by a fetid corpse-like stench which makes you retch and recoil.

If you possess the Sommerswerd and wish to use it in your defence, turn to 219.

If you do not possess this Special Item or choose not to use it, turn to 89.

Ok, normalmente andrei avanti, ma mi fermo perchè la scelta è specifica nel libro e non inserita da me

[Bortas]

Spadadiddio, se è un istadeath facciamola con stile

[Lupoazzurro]

niente spadaddiddio che se la tiriamo fuori qui ci sgamano tutti nel raggio di 800km!!!!

[Sturm]

Spadaddiddioh e dellamadonnaaaah!

[Defender]

mmhh in effetti la scelta è sospetta, non vorrei che finissimo in un mare di merda nera perchè ci sgamano tutti i mostri schifosi da qui all'oceano...

E' poco metal ma dico di tenere imboscata la nostra fida spada.

Tanto abbiamo i pugni nelle mani!! è___é

[Jesper]

E' in pareggio, ma vista la natura del paragrafo 219, lo posto

As your hand closes around the hilt of the sun-sword, you suddenly recall Guildmaster Banedon’s words of warning: Use the Sommerswerd with discretion. In the darkness of Ixia its power will be like a blazing beacon…it could readily alert the Deathlord to your presence.

For a moment you hesitate in drawing the sun-sword from its Korlinium Scabbard. But the cave creature is now almost upon you—it is closing swiftly for the kill. You must act immediately if you are to defend yourself from its attack.

If you choose to unsheathe the Sommerswerd and use it in your defence, turn to 110.

If you decide to leave the Sommerswerd in its scabbard and use another Weapon instead, turn to 275.

Votate!

[Kaluisurrr]

lasciamo la sommerswerd nella fodera

[Sturm]

Vabbe doppio warning vuol dire che c'è la fregatura,prendiamo le nostre armi normali! 275!

[Defender]

Fistfuckiamo st'abominio col potere dei pugnididdio!

[Jesper]

Alla pugna coi pugni!

You remove your hand from the Sommerswerd and draw another weapon just in time to fend off the creature’s initial attack. A flash of lightning briefly illuminates the cave and, for the first time, you see this mysterious beast: the sight is chilling to behold. Its mouth is a mass of twisted fangs and from its huge, bear-like body there writhes a score of slimy tentacles, each tipped with a venomous claw. Its reptilian head is domed and from its centre there protrudes a twisted horn, longer than a broadsword.

The creature retreats a few paces and howls with anger as it prepares to make its second attack.

Upon the instant you strike your fatal blow the creature emits a piercing shriek and crumples to the floor of the cave. The stench of its rotting body makes you feel nauseous, but at least it is blocking the icy wind which whips through the open cave mouth. After satisfying yourself that it was the only one of its kind in this cave, you settle down in a corner and take a well-deserved rest: restore 3 ENDURANCE points.

Turn to 289.

Yes! EP: 35!

Several hours pass before the blizzard dies down sufficiently for you to be able to leave the cave and continue your lonely trek towards Xaagon. You reach the end of the pass where, for the first time, you get a clear view of the Deathlord’s dread city. Once, millennia ago, this city had been the home of a brilliant civilization; today the stately crystal palaces and temples of Xaagon are occupied by the lord and host of the evil dead.

Onward you trek, through knee-deep snow and jagged ice, towards the towering walls of Xaagon. The city is dominated by a spire of crystal which stabs the stormy sky, drawing lightning from the black clouds which swirl around its tip. From this needle-sharp point there radiates a crimson glow which sweeps the surrounding landscape. It is like a hellish lighthouse casting baleful crimson beams across a dead sea of ice.

Gradually, as you come within the shadows of Xaagon’s outer wall, you see two places where you could gain entry to the city beyond. The first is near to the coast, through a breach in the south wall; the second is through the city’s shattered west gate. Neither entrance appears to be guarded.

If you wish to enter Xaagon by the breach in the south wall, turn to 165.

If you choose to enter by the west gate, turn to 266.
