With his test of the Skeleton Giant done, and Skuggirs will firmer then ever, the Giant had been bought a set of iron shin guards, iron shoes, and a tower shield. All the items where in the Giants size.
after a few more test runs that ran throughout the next two days due to the lack of adventurers that made it too the end, Skuggir felt confident in his Skeletons giants power.
when the adventurers got too close it would turn its shield into a swatter and slam it on the heads of the melee fighters like they where flies. and the only party that had escaped was let go on purpose so the news of a new challenge would entice stronger people once he allowed them to enter.
meanwhile, outside dungeon, a international affairs crisis had been lit with the outburst of Allad, the attack from the followers of Ormr who had escaped to inside the dungeon, and Allads subsequent escape back to the holy city of light.
the holy city and City of Ignalis — both city states that bordered opposite side of the same mounties, the light mountain range — where negosiating terms that would put themselves onto while not directly giving any sound or resources too the other.
The holy city of light wanted to go into the Dungeon inside he city of Ignalis too kill the followers of Ormr for good, and destroy the dungeon core, a common way to kill a dungeon for good. While Ignalis wanted Prince Allad to pay for his crimes, and not loose the dungeon their city had been built around sense the day of its founding about 250 years ago.
The stalemate had been ongoing, and the Fellowship of Apollion wanted to take advantage of this. They brought a deal to the delegates of the Holy City of Light offering to invade the dungeon and kill off all the followers of Ormr for them.
Allads maid, Lily, had been left behind in the formers escape. Lily had found her way to the Large towering stone doors after trying all the mages within the city. She had heard that mages who could make slave marks could also remove them, it was apparently easier to remove it than to force it onto someone.
While every magician had been listed so far, even the ones under the banners of gods, none of them where willing to do it for free, animist of them wanted her to serve them for a period of time as a 'debt to god' which Lily promptly refused every time as she had already learned her lesson last time.
Even with the towering stone doors right before her, Lily could not enter as she was on par with a C rank adventerer! in the past she had been a Adventerer. not just a normal adventurer, but a class holder! class holders where those who could read the will of the world like a book before them. she had Held the class of [Mace Maiden].
Her abilities let her use any non-sharp object as if it was a steel mace. This along side her trusty buckler had helped her on the front lines of other dungeons, and even the dungeon the Holy city protected and raided like a farmer grew plants.
the stone doors before her let out a sheen, like metal for a second before they released the will of the world, [entry requirements raised to C] before they faded to the wind like sand. Lily was shocked, Such a thing had never happened to her before! the will of the world had only ever said when she gained new skills what they where, and when she made a contract that the world would oversee, luckily she had not made one like that with the church.
immediately entering the Dungeon after the she snapped back to reality, she was met with a large room with a tall ceiling. To her right a large wooden door was inset by about a foot and was currently closed. Straight ahead she saw a group of skeletons in the next room.
not wanting to fight skeletons unarmed, Lilt went for the door, but before she even reached them they creaked open and revealed a Robed figure with an entourage of skeletons wielding spears and shields and two archers.
the figure gave her a glance before moving into the room which she had chosen not to enter.
passing through the doors yet closed, Lily was met with a a beautiful figure who's red hair and eyes stood out against the dull grey stone walls of the dungeon. "hello, um, I-I'm looking for a mage who can remove slave markings." Lily stuttered due to her attention being enraptured by the beauty before her.
Enya's Beauty had subtly transformed after becoming Skuggir's subordinate. Her bones where stronger and more robust as its imperfections where improved, causing her figure to look better along side her hair now subtly looking like it was actually on fire.
"Ah, I can do that for you." Enya replied with a kind smile, giving Lily the feeling of a mother. moving closer to Lily, Enya asked, "Where is the mark?" before being directed to a small circle of runes around her ankle.
"don't worry, it won't take too long." Enya had helped with many slaves who had run off from their masters, most of them children. she was always happy to help as being a slave was not fun, and that meant it went directly against her gods will, and nobody was allowed to go against her god!
Looking at Enya calmly removing her mark without asking fro anything, Lily swore to repay her in some way, "Is there anything I can help you with? anything at all, I would like to repay your kindness in some way."
hearing this, lily remembered all the troubles her and the others had been having, "well~ there are a few thing you could help around with."
