As you evade the pair of hill trolls again, they are rewound to a reset point, at which they take a different path in the hopes of catching you...
As you climb the rope-ladder, you hear the noise of shuffling feet on the platform above you. You climb through a hole in the platform, but you are not greeted by the Healer--you have intruded into the hideaway of a vicious Man-Orc. You draw your sword as he reaches for his axe.
MAN-ORC Skill 8 Stamina 6
Round One: Robert wins by 3. Man-Orc is at 4 Stamina.
Round Two: Man-Orc wins by 4. Robert is at 12 Stamina.
Round Three: Robert wins by 4. Man-Orc is at 2 Stamina.
Round Four: Man-Orc wins by 2. Robert is at 10 Stamina.
Round Five: Robert wins by 1. Victory.
The only items you find that might be of use are a candle and a tinder-box. You take them and climb back down the ladder to continue walking east up the gorge.
You walk round a large boulder and see a huge man sleeping in the shade. He is lying on top of some animal skins, snoring loudly. His two-handed battleaxe lies propped up against the boulder. He is a BARBARIAN and it would be foolish to wake him up, so you decide to tiptoe past him.
You are wearing boots of the elder elves.
You are able to walk silently past the sleeping Barbarian and continue up the gorge. To your right you see a huge slab of rock; carved into it is the head of a fabulous bird surrounded by flames. Rough steps lead up the side of the rock slab to the mouth of a cave.
Enter the cave?
Continue up the gorge?
