Avilien: Tutorial islands

Move out

Explosions and earthquake-like ruptures rattled the town hall causing bits of its framework to break apart. Damocles, who had sent Brit on her way now grew impatient. He sat with his head resting on locked hands. Grinding his teeth with every bang. Veins sprung on his neck and forehead as he was ready to explode with anger. His empire was crumbling around him. Salamay and Moto kept quiet and on edge as they looked at their leader.

Tall oak doors opening, a black leather dressed assassin hurried inside the town hall with exasperated breaths. Dripped in panic, he wheezed and spluttered as Nagori's poison ravaged his health bar. Health low and ready to collapse the young man named Tolly fell to his hands and knees. A moment of relief that he had escaped the duo of witches, as he dubbed Cissy and Nagori.

Cissy the cause of all the tremors had wreaked havoc amongst Damocles fodder. Luke had reset her skills and abilities and chosen more suitable replacements for her personality and playstyle. She now had an ability called Rupture. The ability shook the ground in front of her and then sent spikes flying out in a ten-meter line. Cissy was loving the ability and cackling like a woman gone mad. It lacked damage but on low-level players it was brutal.

"Forgive me, sirs and madam. We cannot contain them or capture them." Tolly continued to huff and puff as Damocles clenched his hands tighter.

"What of the redhead we sent out? Is she even fighting them?" snarled Salamay. She expected Brit to do nothing and couldn't wait to delete or sell her beloved Squeeks.

"She is miss, but she cannot land a single hit on the male enemy. He is not attacking her but he is managing to block every single strike she makes. This is the boy that dispatched Lex in seconds and all of the men and women on the wall," explained Tolly as he picked himself up. His knees still weak and his legs buckling like jelly.

"So he is indeed skilled as we heard. What abilities is he using?" asked Moto. He was having serious concerns with what Levit had said.

"Well he's not using abilities sir, but he is moving so fast. I've never seen someone with such speed."

"Moto, Salamay. I think it's time the pair of you go on the offensive." Damocles stood up. Red with anger he found it hard to control his actions. He wanted to delete Tolly on the spot. Nebs rolling around with manic laughter in his cage didn't help ease his fury.

"Salamay you may dispatch the redhead. Delete them all and god help you both if you fail me. It's bad enough the Court of Bones member made a laughing stock of us and that our higher-ups demand we grovel. If you lose and come crawling back, I'll delete you both myself," spat Damocles as his hands begun to produce magma.

Salamay and Moto didn't want to stick around after hearing that and the pair hurried past Tolly and toward the tall town hall doors. Ever since the defeat to Grimmock, ever since learning that the boy attacking could be the legendary Awesome Biscuit, Damocles had been in a foul mood. As the pair exited with Tolly behind them they closed the door and Damocles sat back down opening up his inventory. He would need to prepare for battle.

Sending a message to Angel, Damocles hoped for a swift reply as events had gotten out of his hands. She didn't reply but another message from rank four Denile did come through. Undertaker to the Corpse Collectors, Denile was an embodiment of insanity. His mail claimed he had been dispatched to Coco island. If he arrived then the island was done for. He would turn it all to ash. Denile also ranked higher than Trix and Angel in the PVP leaderboard.

Try as he may to keep himself occupied and prepared for an intense battle, Damocles didn't notice a gleeful Nate. Nate's plan was falling in to place, brick by brick. He had overheard everything. And if the plan was to progress quicker, he needed to resolve the situation with Brit and Luke. Nate knew Awesome Biscuit would never strike a friend, ally, or weaker player.

"Bones. I need another little favour off of you," whispered Nate as Bone popped his head out of Nates rib cage like a little skeletal alien.

"Next step?" asked a raspy Bones.

Nate nodding placed his palm on the floor as Atom, his cell neighbour looked on. Using the summon command Nate summoned Bones beneath him into the cellar along with Loopa the undead female druid. The next step of the plan was to liberate all of the game guides down below and any other prisoners throughout the building. Bones could free them with the key he pilfered from Salamays dresser and then Loopa could rid them of the curse. Nate wanted to free Nebs, but Damocles kept Nebs behind him along with a few other select guides.

Dropped into the dark, dank cellar, Bones slinked towards the pile of steel crates containing the guides. He moved between the large wooden casks and pulled the silver key out of his ribcage. Unlocking the first cage containing a blue puppy named Ronix, the weak pup looked at Bones with a confused expression. All of the guides had been weakened due to starvation. Even with the cage door open and Loopa casting cleanse Ronix didn't want to move.

"You're free," said Bones in his chilling voice.

"No one is free here, Grenchitty. Not unless them, things are beaten," muttered Ronix as he used what little strength he had to speak.

"Those things will be taken care of, rest assured. Stay or flee via the back stairs. I'd advise leaving the place before it starts to fall apart and come down." Bones said no more and moved on to the next cage. Eventually, he pulled open Squeeks' cage.

Bewildered, Squeeks scurried forward and out of the prison. Unlike the others, he hadn't been weakened to such a degree as he'd been there less than a week.

"Why are you rescuing us? What is Nate after?" questioned Squeeks Loopa cleansed him.

"My master wants to save all the guides and prisoners before having a front-row seat to the battle between Damocles and Awesome Biscuit. If I were you, I'd hurry to your master and stop her from being stupid and reckless." Bones bowed his head.

Squeekswanted to ask more questions but he did indeed need to get to miss Brit and fast.
