Day
26
Goblin
and Ogres are prowling and they come to the board en masse. The
Witch has just enough time to create more Black magic before the
Captain, bored with following while the Witch completes her hocus-pocus,
practices a few sword strokes against his shield and draws 12 Spear
and Great Sword Goblins down on the hapless pair. The Elf, working
his way through the caves, and the Wizard who drops down from the
sky on his Flying Carpet, hear the commotion echoing through the
Caverns. The Black Knight, temporarily alone after driving off his
competitors, discovers the Cairns and pulls out a treasure. But
the Witch King, driving his pony hard, gallops along the ridge in
High Pass toward the Cairns and the Black Knight. A new Berserker,
Snorri Gundarchuksson, starts at the Inn and heads out into Deep
Woods, and the Druid takes a deep breath and sets out into the caves
in pursuit of his quarry, the Elf. The Amazon enters the empty Ruins,
and the White Knight sells everything to the Order except the Golden
Icon, and--completely defenseless and lugging the Tremendous weight
of the Icon--stumbles onto two Ogres who are delighted that dinner
has dropped by.
In
combat, another character is lost as Ogre 2 sneaks up behind and
smashes the White Knight with his club while the White Knight is
trying to take out Ogre 1 with his Dagger. The Ogres fry up Knight
steaks and wonder what to do with the big golden statue. Elsewhere,
the Witch pops a Black magic chit, transmorphizes into a Tremendous
Flying Dragon, and flies away from the surprised Goblins while the
Captain slips out the back door, and the Witch King casts a spell
to create an extra Phantasm to do some searching for him on Day
27.
