The Item
Thinking your secret passageway to the item might be blocked or uncovered, you briskly walk in the direction of the stairs with the Item. The stairs are long and winding, with only an occasional torch or candle to light your path. Treading cautiously down the stairs, knowing full well you will surely meet some opposition, you near the end of the stairs. You peer down the continuation of the hall.
"You will be found!" the Item hisses menacingly. "We will die!"
"Shut up!" you whisper, "we mustn't make a noise, or we will be dead." To feel assured that the Item does not speak, you gag her with some of your clothes and begin to walk.
One foot before the other, you tell yourself, only three more levels. You reach the next set of stairs and descend. Again, you look at the hall. The coast is clear.
Out of nowhere a knife appears. Before you can react you have a chance to react you are stabbed in the side. Staggering, you collapse to the ground.
You are awake, eyes closed, lying on a mat. You are not in a jail cell and no one is around, including the Item. What do you do?
