"Oh Hybros, you're a dear to play along! I'm so sorry to put you in that cell. And that my people decimated your people so long ago. I wasn't actually there for that, but my boss told me how it happened. So sad." Shocks rack Hybros' body and he loses four health. "Six words! And the first of them is the name of that lovely Hall that you come from!"

"Fire would be wonderful for me!"

"Ooooooooof cooooooooourse your friends will be safe. Just like the Cleric will be. I need you all for later events of course! You Heroica folks are invaluable to me! You can always trust the good to do what they think is right! You're predictable and it's helpful. I wouldn't dreeeeeeam of hurting any of you. And tell you what. If any of you give me... three of your health points, I'll tell you how many words are in a anagram, and for a cost of more one health, I'll tell you one of the words!"

Oh my god! No one told me it was my birthday and also Christmas and also Happy Holy Moon Day all at once! Wowzers. Vote: Scar Mimitsus

The party progresses to the prison room. They try to walk down the next hallway, but are unable to. A barrier throws them back. Lady Wren once more whispers in each hero's ear. "First off, I would like to congratulate the barbarian and the knight for actually using their heads. Even though Cronk uses the third person, he's still figured out one of the words. Maybe I was wrong to not pick him as my favorite. Eric says he hates mind games, and yet there he is whispering names that... send shivers down my spine. OooooooOooOOOooo." "Secondly, I hope you did not think you were done making choices. You must leave three of your party behind, in this room. And at least one of them must come from Heroica Hall, and not have already been locked here! Make your picks!" Hallways Traveled: 21

God, everyone has been so inventive with quests! If this keep up we will never run out of things to do for the Hall!

The candles flicker. "Zoot, zoot, zoot," echoes the empty air around them.

"When the Cleric said what?!" asks the Cleric in shock. "I never A Ace Refill Owlish Ill Wilt Orzo crazy?!" "That's right," laughs Hans viciously he turns to the others: "Let's get out of here... Wren has fried his brain and he's useless. Leave no man behind but those too slow to keep up." "She got some strange letters in there..." observes Felton. "Maybe there will be more clues later? Keep your eyes peeled. Aren't you folks from Heroica supposed to be smart?! I heard you had a library." "Who the hell is Phil?!" asks Phil, still miffed that no one has answered his question. "Why did Lady Wren say Phil?!" "A Ace Refill Owlish Ill Wilt Orzo," say the Cleric. Hans spits. "Please stop, that is disgusting," says Felton. "Also, where the hell did Garrison get off to?"

If you figure it out. And I mean candy shaped like helmets. But seriously, there is a prize to the first person to figure it out. A non-member of the quest PM'd me something with one of the words in it solved so I know it's not impossible if you put your heads together and think!

I will! But you want to figure it out! You'll get helmet candy as well!

Let's try to not make Quest & the Cronk Docken Hybros show! I know it's been long but you're almost done, make sure to have fun with the time you've got! Corny, Doctor, JimButcher, thanks for keeping it flowing!

<Wrote a pretty little note to myself that I disregarded. Gold is wrong for everyone, thanks for the catch!"

"Oh this is getting ridiculous. What do you think the gods would do if we all just chose to not attack?! Hehe. I'll attack from the front row! And thank you to Umbra once more for shielding me. I miss her. Any my wife. These hills and hills of sand are starting to screw with me. First I miss that damn Scarab a bunch of times, now this."

The party travels five halls back to the Cleric's office. He smiles and greets them. "How are you?! What can I do for you?! Have you figured out how to get me out of this accursed place?! Remember, I can heal up to four party members, and you can space those out!" Suddenly a shock runs through all the party members, draining one health. "That's not fair!" cries Hybros. "I've only traveled through five hallways!" "Hahahahahaha," twinkles Wren's laugh in his ear, light and sweet.

"Nyx, I thought you had more guts than that! Take a risk! I'll attack until that's fellow killed me dead or I'll do the vice-versa. I'll attack from the front row!"

"I will also attack from the front row! I hope you all appreciate this shield, I took it from a dear friend of mine."

Docken gets a gold star as he slides open the final cell and finds Thothwick, looking a-okay.

(If you already have discovered where you want to go, you may give me a location and I will take you there the quickest way possible, but the hallway count will stand.)

The cell door slides open and Christopher Daggerfall, looking fresh as a daisy, walks out. Sir Christopher Daggerfall (played by Fred Fred Burger) Level 6 Knight 27 year-old Human male Power: 11 Health: 15\15 Gold: 12 Inventory: 1x Great Sword (WP: 5, suitable for barbarians and knights)

I like riddles too! And Lady Wren loves to play with the heroes! Also, my show finally closed (this week was tech week, and so I had rehearsal for hours after school everyday) and my college application looks pretty good at this point (only a week to go!) so I should be able to finish up the quest pretty quickly!

The door to Cell E slides open easily for Master Docken and Hybros rejoins the party! Hybros (played by JimButcher) Level 7 Rogue 50 years old male imp Power: 11 Health: 13/13 Gold: 35 Inventory: Mockthril Longsword (WP: 4, suitable for knights and rogues) He is in perfect health.

Jailors Battle Round 3 Results Felton v. Guard A - Damage Phil v. Veteran Guard B - Critical Hit Cronk v. Veteran Guard B - Damage Eric v. Veteran Guard B - Critical Hit Hans v. Secondary Guard B - Damage Docken v. Veteran Head Guard B (Guard A) - Hit Jess v. Secondary Guard B - Hit Henry v. Veteran Guard A - Shield The fight drags on. Felton is hit again losing 2 health, and Phil does 8 damage to the Veteran Head Guard. Cronk tries to follow up, but the Guard is enraged and does 3 damage to Cronk. Eric sees his friend get injured and fall, and as the Guard raises his sword to plunge into Cronk Eric runs over, bats off both his arms, both his legs, and finally his head, scattering limbs and leaving just a torso. Hans loses 1 health as Docken sinks yet another well aimed arrow into Guard A's chest, killing him. Jess in turn takes out Secondary Guard B, and Henry's throwing star lands in the final opponent's forehead. Henry goes and collects 14 gold from his downed enemy.

The heroes examine them. They are labelled as such: D-E C-F B-G A-H There is a set of clues hung next to each door. Felton grabs one. "Looks like Wren's work," he frowns and passes it around to the group. Hans spits in disgust. Phil polishes his hammer.

Again, I will attack from the front row!"

It's better than me. I have to apologize to my questers. This turned out to be a way more stressful week than I anticipated. I've been slow and I hope to fix it asap.
