If whatever comes down the corridor is unfriendly of course!!
Anyone have any ideas, or anything/one you would like to see come down the corridor?
Bear in mind this castle is not the Necromancers' lair, though he was last seen heading in the general direction. _________________ Neil Hartley Books.

A mad old caretaker, complaining about them tramping mud into his castle, and taking offence at the fact you've brought vermin (halflings!) into the place.

Now that's a good idea! Mmmm, I may well use something like that.

I've voted for wait and see what appears.
Maybe something a bit more challenging than Bob the Caretaker though. Maybe Bob the ApeDog.

It has been about 5 days since the last chapter, so I will give this another little while and then start writing the next one. Possibly with 'Bob' in. _________________ Neil Hartley Books.

I'm going for the mad alchemist's lab. What happened to the original aristocratic family that lived here? They were all vivisected and turned into Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob and Bob!
A twisted scheme, if ever I heard one...

Entertaining chapter Chinaren
A quick technicality:
Quote: | They were all were battered | One of them doesn't need to be there.
How about bringing the outside in. The room is filled with snow, a cold wind howls through, and there doesn't appear to be a ceiling, but a dark sky full of clouds. The room boundaries still exist, but it's a large room and at first glace, it could be an entire world through the door.
Perhaps it's the remains of a long forgotten spell gone wrong, or the original families version of keeping the beers cold.

I think that Narg needs another lusty maiden to appear... Lusty maidens are fun... I would say some sort of dungeon/torture chamber, considering the place, but with another door on the other end of the dungeon, leading up to the kitchens, which are full of strange stuff. The kitchens might contain a side door... Don't forget to rescue the soon to be tortured maiden from the torture chamber!

Fear not Evil Homer, you will be in, I promise! I have a double-your-money back guarantee! The story has broken loose and is going off at all angles at the moment, so I couldn't fit you in this ep, that's all 'cos I want to make you a worthy character. Else you would have been 'Bob!'
Thanks for the grammar point Smee, I wrote this chapter quite quickly and didn't check it as well as I usually do. I like your idea by the way.
I think the dungeon needs to be 'down'. Hyperion, it would have been a torture chamber if people had voted for 'down the stairs'. However, don't worry, I have plans in this direction, and of course - lusty maidens!!!
Fear not everyone, there is plenty of life left in this story yet! Oh yes indeed. _________________ Neil Hartley Books.

Its cold is it? Then I suggest that it is a walk-in refridgerator, full of decades-old meat and horrors untold.
And what better place to meet a lusty maiden than tied up in the coldroom of an evil castle? _________________ Duke Reg

Where better indeed? I can't think of anywhere. On second thoughts, maybe this explains my lack of success with the fairer sex. _________________ Neil Hartley Books.

Hmm... I was suggesting down for the simple reason that they are usually down. Not as in the actual direction down, but as a hypothetical down that is really, say... up. I'm not against an airy, well lit dungeon!

K. I liked all of your ideas, so I have kind of pooled them all together and written chapter 10 of Narg.

One technicality
Quote: |
The black door resisted, obviously it had not been well used, which was an encouraging sign. Narg used all his strength, and as it slowed yielded... |
Slowly yielded?
Great chaper!
He's got to go with the Lich's demands. We don't want to lose Old Stony, do we? The lich-lord will probably try to betray us later... but I reckon Narg won't be shy about betraying the Lich either, so that makes it even

Great chapter.
I can only hope you're not nominated. But then again I think I'll nominate you myself.
Get Shogun fixed and be prepared for any double-crossing.
At the end of the day, we need that key.

Definitely find out what Evil Homer wants from him. Also do the usual "how do I know you won't betray me?" routine. Then agree to do it. Narg will stab him in the back anyway so it doesn't matter if its a raw deal just as long as the stone to flesh is cast before they leave, not once they get back.
If Gorgus makes a scene about working with the lich, tell him that its the only way to save Shogun's life. Saving lives is good, right? _________________ Duke Reg

Hehe, nice one E.H, but you only donated 60. I have the receipt to prove it! And, as others have pointed out, you are in this chapter. You even got a 'guest star' billing at the top!
Everyone else: Thanks for the comments! A nice lot there.

Good chapter. I love the way you keep dangling hot babes in front of poor Narg. What's a brave hero to do, eh?
I'd say carry on. They're stout adventurers, they can take a bit of exhaustion. And can Narg really trust someone so cold and frigid, when she's making such hot promises? Not to sound too cynical, but I reckon he'd get more action from the halfling!
