Mask 3-6? 1877 4th age
Gunter Von Hiesenberg III awoke to a measured step of a person wearing a hard boot. He couldnt speak, see or move. He discerned that the boot steps came from above him. It seemed to circle around him at a distance. He spoke. It was in Firenzian. The voice was cold and calculating.
He then heard other footsteps and the sound of a cage opening. “The elf first” the calculating voice said. Gunter Von Hiesenberg III smiled for they were going to use the druid to do whatever they were going to do. The druid could wild shape out any shackles. The voice started “wake up my friend as I force you to recall source of any pain that you may have suffered in the past”. A cry of pain assailed Gunter Von Hiesenberg III’s ears.
“Now that I have your attention elf, remember again the pain that you have suffered in the past. Again a cry of pain. Then one of the other voices swore and yelled out that the elf was changing shape. The calcuating voice told the others to strike it and again mentioned pain.
The next sound woke up the others in the group. It was the sound of large animal tearing something apart, sounding like flesh. The calculating voice never wavered even after a second rending sound came to Gunter Von Hiesenberg III and the others ears. “Pain” was the single word uttered and the group heard a thud and the slow measured walk.
kelana was pacing at the bottom of a thirty foot deep hole in the ground hearing most of the conversation and the action. She was without clothing and angry about not being able to aid her friends.
She heard the thud, the slow measured walk and a gutteral sound that she associated with the Firenzian language. The door opened, voices spoke. The calculating voice said something and left. The other voices were of one of general disgust and the sound of somebody above retching.
Rommel Von Helsing stood with his remaining brothers while their father Heinrich was demanding that Rommel determine who the member of the weasel clan who helped kill his sibling. Heinrich allowed himself a small smile when he told the sons that the group responsible for the death had been brought into Bergstat. They had been sold out by somebody. His smile got a bit larger when he announced that Detrich (Dr. Jest) was here to interrogate the prisoners. Detrich marched into the room, wearing his Cat mask and walking with the measured step that he always had along with his ramrod straight back and long black hair. Detrich announced that he had started the interrogation of the prisoners.
Rommel Von Helsing found a way to excuse himself from the proceedings and moved down to the dungeon. He found a way to distract the guards and entered the prison where he noticed the blood on the floor and that he could only see papis, and Vanion, He went to Papis cell and unlocked the manacles that had bound him. Rommel Von Helsing explained that there was a secret exit from the dungeon and that they should take it. Rommel Von Helsing left and returned to the meeting of his father.
In the meantime Gunter Von Hiesenberg III found a clever way to use ghostsound to help him to release his bonds and he freed his mouth and eyes. Soon the group was released within the prision room. A try at the main door brought little success so the group went into the secret exit and found that it dropped to the sewers of the city. The group ran into a spider which they dispatched with ease. The group found the exit and came up in an open market. None of them were wearing any clothes and they were all foul smelling from the sewers.
The crowd fled away from the group but a single guardsman tried to stop the group and was torn apart by Vanion who was angry about his imprisonment. Gunter Von Hiesenberg III had the group retreat back into the sewer and kelana took the body of the guard back into the prison to strip him of his armor and weapon. Gunter Von Hiesenberg III had decided that the group would need to get its gear back instead of escaping. Climbing back into the prison cell the group got the door open and rushed to the top of the stairwell and attempted to open a second door and took a considerable shock and retreated back down into the prison.
