<strong>Ellen</strong><br/><br/>"Like I said, the guy<em>claims</em>to being a cartographer..." The man replied, "But judging from the funds he has and his documents, I'm willing to wager he's working for the Aeune Adventuring Commission. That land's all wild, one of the last places you can still find a monster that hasn't been domesticated or locked up in a cage, so I bet you he's trying to find some old ruins or an unclimbable mountain to host a game at."<br/><br/>He shrugged, "I don't know what to make of your... condition. But it ain't something you see every day and the people love that sort of thing. That 'cartographer' is just the man you'll want to expose yourself to... as an adventurer, I mean."<br/><br/>"Ma'am."<br/><br/><strong>Dexter</strong><br/><br/>"Why didn't you tell me sooner!?" Dirae angrily spat, holding a girl by the collar. She meekly replied, "We were, uhm... distracted."<br/><br/>The Captain of the Crimson Cutlass released her crew member and tilted her kneck at the... monument before them.<br/><br/>A giant stone humanoid barely visible in the fog and half-submerged in the water, pointing up at the sky with an outstretched finger. "Well are yeh daft!? Get up there and make sure we don't run right into it!" Dirae commanded one of the girls. Dexter emerged from her quarters a little better, using some of the fresh drinking water she had in the room to wipe himself with.<br/><br/>She seemed to act as if the last few moments had never happened, "Well.. I wouldn't call it a<em>tower.</em>"<br/><br/><strong>Ivette</strong><br/><br/>They travelled through many passageways illuminated by her light, indicating just how expansive the dungeon was down here... They finally arrived at what seemed to be the trolls' lair. The unconscious girl was first laid down in a thick pile of blankets and clothes that seemed years old.<br/><br/>"Dey be... our wiivveses now?" One of the... less intellectual scrag trolls asked, now relieved of his burden. "Yess." The one holding Ivette said. The other still conscious woman was eased down onto the blankets next to her peer. The trolls looked at their leader expectantly. "Thiss one iss magic..." He said, unwilling to let her go as he clutched at her chest and presented her glowing necklace to them.<br/><br/>Still, one sorceress against the three of them were poor odds, even if her hands were free. Especcially this close... She'd need to wait for one or two of the beasts to leave, or find some other way to seperate them.<br/><br/>They seemed to prefer forcing the girls there by fear and brutish might rather than any real physical entrapment, apparently lacking the means to keep them entrapped any other way. Well, they had to sleep<em>sometime.</em>
