Lost

Chapter 15: High Gate Ruins

I explained the tomb to the group and Lidia came up with High Gate Ruins. So since none of us had any better ideas we agreed.

The four of us left Windhelm and headed to Dawnstar. From there we headed west and after a few epic wolf fights and some boring bandit battles we arrived at the destination. We killed off the bandits out front and went inside.

When we got inside we heard talking and fighting, more bandits? Draghr lay dead on the dusty stone ground. We pass the Draghr and walked up a small set of stairs. We readied our weapons and were about to attack when I said, "Wait."

"Who are you?" I asked the person.

"I'm Anska. Are you here to help?" She asked.

"Help with what?" I asked her.

"I've finally located Vokun's Crypt. I was thinking you could help find it." She told me.

"Vokun?" I said.

"Some old priest buried here long ago. I've been searching for this tomb for a few years now." She said

"What kind of help do you need?" I asked.

"If Vokun is as powerful as I think. I may need a little help Um ... Dealing ... with him." She told me

"What's in it for us?" I asked.

"You can have anything. Except the scroll of course." She said.

"I'll help." I said

"Great with the five of us, this should be easy." She said.

"Ok follow us." I said.

We carried on through the hall and up the stairs into a big room. I walked in and hear the groan of more Draghr I shot one with my bow killing it instantly. Another came at me and I swung my axe, decapitating it. Another one came and Poet stabbed it in the face with a dagger.

We carried on up more stairs. We came upon a door and I opened it leading the gang into another hallway. I was about to open another door when it flew open and a Draghr came out and nearly took my head off with a sword, luckily I dodged him. But there were a lot more. We all started fighting. After knowing we were safe I wondered in to the room to fined another door. I opened the door, carefully this time, to another hallway.

"Watch out for the trap!" I yelled back as Sadic got smacked in the face by a log.

After Shadic recovered from her surprise we continued through a hallway. I didn't believe in jump scares until a Draghr popped out of a tomb. After killing it we walked into another big room. A puzzle. Lidia jumps in front and pulls the levers.

"Bird! Fish! Wolf! Snake!" She screams.

The gate opens up revealing a passage way. We head down the spiral stairs and come upon ... another door. I open it and we head inside and arrive at another hallway. I killed a Draghr on the wall before it could even wake up. Another spiral staircase comes into view we head down that one and are attacked by more Draghr. I walk into the next room and get shot by poison arrows. I quickly drink a Cure Disease Potion. I kill another Draghr and loot a chest making sure to step over the trap.

We finally find another door.

"Oh pretty!" Shadic says as she takes a soul gem triggering a trap and waking up two Draghr.

We got mad at her after killing the Draghr. We carry on to the big grand hall.

"Traps watch out." I say as I step over the triggers.

I open the grand doors to the last hallway and we are attacked by a Draghr Overlord who Fus Ro Dahed me into a wall. We then enter Vokun's Throne Room And ready ourselves. The thing I thought was a Draghr turns out to be a Dragon Priest!

"Take cover!" I yelled.

I bravely approach the powerful enemy and with the help of the other four we take him down.

I take his mask thinking, 'oh this looks cool' and carry on to find the weapon and scroll.

I take the scroll and the battle axe, approach Anska and give her the scroll.

"I cannot thank you enough for all the help." She says as I hand her the scroll. " and here is a little something for helping me out." She gives me 200 gold.

And me and my group leave.
