The Plaque at the End of the Tunnel

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 13852

The new tunnel snaked its way along, twisting and turning. A series of torches placed along the walls kept it dimly lit, but the dimness was no obstacle to Shen Tso whose vision was extraordinary.

After a bit, the tunnel ended. At first, Shen Tso was perplexed and a bit upset - had she chosen wrongly? Then she realized that there was a second bronze plaque, bigger than the first, set into the wall in front of her.

Who is responsible for these markers? she wondered. Was it someone trying to help defeat the dragon - or someone trying to protect the dragon?

Still, her curiosity drew her forward to read what was on this plaque. It was a single phrase, written in several different languages, including Allarian and, to her surprise, Tarani. The phrase was the same in both languages (and, she supposed, in all the others as well). It said:

  1. "Strike the Wall Above This Plaque to Proceed"
  2. "Proclaim Yourself to Show Your Worthiness"
  3. "The Dragon Lies Near, So Show No Fear"
  4. "You have Fallen into My Trap - Prepare for Your Doom"
