Read “Unexpected Help, the previous installment of this story here.
The hooded figures step closer, their faces obscured. The shaman speaks softly in a language the group can’t decipher.
The figures nod. One of them speaks in a deep, gravelly voice. “We know of an establishment where you can rest, replenish. Perhaps even find some answers to questions.”
Krizt raises an eyebrow sceptically. “What kind of establishment would that be?”
“A výčep of course.
The group, still in the basin, exchange glances.
“A place to gather. Drink, eat, and share stories.” The second figure clarifies.
Rez shrugs. “I'll go anywhere that serves a good drink.”
C5 beeps in agreement. The crate man mutters something unintelligible.
*wipe transition*
Krizt glances around the space, taking it in. The walls are lined with shelves holding bottles of various colors and shapes, and the air is thick with the smell of exotic spices and fermenting fruit.
She spots a tall, lanky creature with iridescent sapphire scales flicking its forked tongue as it sips a drink. A hulking, heavily armored figure leans against the nearby wall, scanning the crowd with glowing red eyes. A trio of amphibious beings, with slick, slimy skin and large donut-shaped eyes, chug down neon-coloured shots of liquid and emit throaty croaks of pleasure. A pair of shimmering spirits with long, flowing robes and ethereal wings float around the room, occasionally stopping to bless patrons with a gentle touch or a whispered prayer.
A small creature in the shape of a cinnamon roll with wide eyes approaches, swaying on two legs. “What can I get ya?” it asks in a high-pitched voice.
Suddenly a deafening explosion rocks the bar, sending glasses and bottles crashing to the floor. The figures draw their hoods closer. “No safety here.”
“What's going on?” Reena asks.
Before anyone could answer, the ground shakes again and the walls begin to crumble.
Dust and debris now fill the air, and Krizt realizes with horror that they are under attack…
