City of Light - Chapter 1

[Trygon]

You continue your discussion regarding allies. "Then you should free the people in the cells you believe can best help support and defend us".

Kaellen nods. "I was already intending on doing that. Also with their combined support we could fight back Hawke and get him locked up down here".

You already know that by Hawke he is referring to the Red Knight. "Is there any exit that we can use to avoid any confrontation with the Red Knight?”

"There is an emergency exit that leads out into the streets around the Moderator Palace. The rest of the exits open into the palace itself, and we do not want that. Unfortunately meeting Hawke on our path to this exit is still a possibility. Though, I should be able to fend him off" Kaellen explains.

"When we are out on the streets, we could still be caught wearing what we are" you point out. Suddenly, Trygon walks in on the conversation. "Do not worry about that. I can quite easily deal with that problem, temporarily at least" he tells you with a smile, "I can change my body enough to shield the both of you. We'd look like an obese monk, but it would do the trick till we can get to somewhere we can get civilian clothes. I have checked many rooms, but I have only found uniforms and work clothes. I have also found a lot of money lying around and on a few skeletons left from the Red Knight's attack".

Trygon shows Kaellen several wallets which he had on his possession. Kaellen looks inside them. "You removed the cards, which is a wise move considering they would have expired by now. I'd say you have gathered at least five hundred rep, which should do you well for basic resources for a while. You don't really need to eat or drink after all. You aren't a living creature ".

Then we had better get moving.

[Acoustico]

Then we had better get moving.

Agreed

[Ossai]

Lets roll. Time to move out.

[Trygon]

With the plotting and planning wrapped up, the group leaves the Archive. Kaellen and Trygon take the lead with the promise that you will finally leave this facility.

You walk for a long time. After what seemed like an hour you have walked through two entire new sections and past over a hundred laboratories and work stations. You are now at a door that reads 'EMERGENCY EXIT 8'. Kaellen opens it and you follow. What is before you is a large empty room with a door ahead with a exit sign above it. It looks like it might be a elevator of some sort. "This is it" Kaellen tells you before pointing ahead. "That is the lift that will take you to the surface. Under lock down you need to get past a palm reader, but we have that covered. Before the doors close, remember to give the hand and any keys you might have to me so that I can empty the cells".

[Inquisitor023]

Get the keys/hand ready, activate the lift, hand the items off quickly and enjoy the ride...

Transform and Roll Out!

[Katherine]

Query into the need to use the hand later. The hand may be handy when getting through doors later, above the city. Ask about meeting Kellen later.

[Col.Feren]

Prepare yourself.. for rubbish elevator music!

[Anne Marie]

Get the keys/hand ready, activate the lift, hand the items off quickly and enjoy the ride...

Transform and Roll Out!

What he said. I also was wondering when someone would make a Transformers reference.

[Trygon]

You approach the elevator and press the button on the wall, opening the doors. Using the Hand-in-a-box you active the elevator via the palm reader, which lights up the button console. It finally looks like you'd be leaving this facility. Dim is the first in after you, and she can barely contain her excitement. Trygon takes her bag for her and stops briefly to try and stuff some of the items he has in his coat into it.

Suddenly, in the blink of an eye, he is cleaved in two, causing him to drop the bag, various objects spilling out everywhere. You quickly see Kaellen in battle with the attacker. It is the Red Knight. He is drenched in dried blood and his armour is covered in even more faces then before. He laughs manically and he fights, his eyes burning with barely contained power. Kaellen hurls a spear of light at the Red Knight, causing his arm to be blown clean off. It quickly reforms, just in time to punch the reformed and attacking Trygon square in the face, sending dozens of sharp teeth and a glowing deadlight eyeball flying across the room. Dim slides the Hand-in-a-box out and presses the up arrow on the elevator console before you can react. The elevator slowly moves upwards, creaking as if something is hanging off the bottom. Eventually whatever it is loses grip and you gain speed, on your way to the surface.
