The Black Citadel
After a bright flash you find yourself back in Darkwood. The warm rays of dawn greet your eyes and begin to warm the snow that covers the ground. You don't recognise this area of Darkwood and you move to the only exit, a path heading west, in the hope that you can find any signs of Vandil up ahead.
After some time the path leads to another clearing. Bleeding bodies are littered all over the place. First you step past a dark one with three arrows sticking out of his chest. His wretched looking greyish face is frozen in his final moment of painful death. Another body is charred, probably from a fireball, and cannot be identified. You find a woman, her body half frozen from a spell. Her bow is still firmly clasped in one hand. You pass other bodies of dead dark ones and dead women until you find Vandil near the back of the clearing. He is lying there motionless until you approach him. His eyes flicker open and he grabs his sword and waves it in front of him, thinking you're an enemy, until you hit it out of the way with your staff.
"Damn Vandil it's me, Mathayus! You look like you've seen better days."
He smiles at you before coughing up blood and then he mumbles,
"Mage, you missed out on all the action. Piece of cake really "
"Vandil stop, you can tell me everything later. I've got to get you healed and out of here."
Vandil's looking a little worse for wear so it might be a good idea to heal him before he dies right here. Do you have a Spell of Healing or a magic potion?
