((That's what I hoped the --- separator would indicate, but I admit it wasn't terribly explicit.))<br/><br/>"Oh, no doubt you'll get out of this alive.  The question is, in what state."  The Baron gives a heavy sigh.  "There is a slight... complication with your entry.  You see, someone took the opportunity of 'The Walk' to try a magic ritual against me.  Normally the barriers in and around the dungeon take care of such things, but this was a rather subtle and insidious attack.  I'm not sure how to put it, but you were...<em>displaced.</em>You skipped ahead, to put it simply.  Now normally that would call for disqualification, but seeing as you yourself had no part in it, I'm willing to be... generous.<br/><br/>"So, my dear, I leave it for you to choose.  I can either send you back to the beginning of the dungeon, or... in exchange for the use of your body, I can provide you with what you should have been able to get."<br/><br/>((What actually happened was, I accidentally transposed two numbers in the "turn to #" bit.  I didn't realize it until you'd already gone a fair ways into the game, so it was too late to rewind.))
