The Black Citadel

You reach for your sword, grab it and you spin on your heels out of the way of the fireball that's flying straight towards you. The fireball slams into the pole of your cage with a crash. Gripping your sword with two hands stretched out in front of you, you rush at the central figure that hasn't yet cast a fireball spell. It stretches out two long grey twisted looking hands from under its sleeves and you see a hot ball beginning to form in its palms. You swing your sword out to the side and then the other way in an arc to cleave off its hands and then you ram your sword up through its throat. The other two suddenly vanish, however the central one gurgles and drops to its knees and its hood falls back to reveal a greyish human looking figure with two flaring holes for a nose and pointed fangs. It smiles at you as you ram your sword in harder. It convulses for a brief couple of seconds before it drops down dead. You wonder where the other two nightmarish creatures disappeared to and why you were in that cage.

You search the body and find a *silver dagger. The dagger is twisted with demonic looking creatures. It doesn't look very sharp, but you put it in you backpack anyway. You notice a peculiar looking stone square next to the body of the fallen creature. Demonic looking designs are engraved into the stone that are similar to the ones on the dagger. There are four paths to choose from that exit the clearing.
