"Nice..." [b]He pulled out whatever pieces he could and laid them out to figure out exactly how much of the armour he had [/b]
-
A chest plate, one greave, a cod piece, and a helmet. The helmet stinks of mold and is full of mud. None of the tech in them works, since they've been here so long.
-
[b]He stood tall and scanned the rest of the area.[/b]
-
The remains of a massive war droid stick up from the ground nearby, coveted on moss.
-
[b]He moved into the barracks, going deeper in[/b]
-
He finds a sinkhole inside. It looks recent, and not natural.
-
[b]He looked into the sinkhole, ending a fireball down to illuminate the dark[/b]
-
It goes about 30 feet straight down before turning northward and dissapearing out of sight.
-
"What the hell...." [b]He jumped into the hole, using the air to help him glide downwards to avoid fall damage[/b]
-
Sure enough, it opens into a tunnel. He notes the walls appear to be melted through solid stone.
-
"Monsters? What could do this..." [b]He began walking, the fireball moving ahead to light the path[/b]
-
The tunnel goes on for a while before slanting downwards. The walls glisten with a strange slime.
-
[b]Nathaniel continued deeper into the cave, watching his every step [/b]
-
An odd smell fills the tunnel, it smells sour and acidic. He sees something move up ahead.
-
[b]The fireball expanded outwards, lighting up more of the area [/b]
-
Something slithers away from the fire, hissing angrily.
-
[b]He drew the knife immediately, expanding the ball further [/b]
-
Several dozen black and grey snakes swarm towards him, hissing angrily.
-
"FUUUUUUUUUUU-" [b]He pivoted around, breaking into a sprint as he the ground behind him erupted into blue flames [/b]
-
[spoiler]start Indiana Jones music....[/spoiler] The snakes swarm through the fire, more coming from the walls. The fire dosent hurt them as they gain on him, the smooth, slanted stone making it hard to run.
-
[b]Nathaniel picked up the pace, moving even faster towards the exit [/b]
-
The snakes swarm after him, he can clearly see the venom dripping from their fangs and sizzling on the stone. He reaches the end of the tunnel, the hole above him.
-
[b]He jumped onto the wall and manipulated the air beneath him to blast himself upwards [/b]
-
The snakes swarm the bottom of the tunnel, the ground shaking beneath him. They appear unable to escape.
-
[b]He erupted over the edge of the hole, landing with a small thump nearby where he had laid out the armour [/b]
