“Damn it,” you say to yourself, realizing that you’ve come without a lantern. “That was pretty dumb!”

All the same, you’re hopeful that the lantern will still be at the tavern.

You head out, and as you leave the trees, a wagon goes past. Stops. “Want a lift?” asks its driver.

You smile, then nod.

Minutes later, you’re back at the Black Horse Tavern. But it’s in chaos! Orcs and zombies are attacking the locals. An arrow misses you, then a sword, and you sprint out the back, looking for safety.

There you see a tower, and a tied-up horse.

Do you…

  1. Grab the horse and make a sharp exit (click here).
  2. Try to enter the tower (click here).
