Wait.” You stop yourself before you set one foot on the trellis beneath. “We should think of a plan, no..? If my lady were in this situation, I’m sure she wouldn’t dare just stupidly rush headfirst into danger. We’re in contention with a demon lord here, if just a sliver of one.”
“What? I thought we had a plan. I thought YOU had a plan. Don’t tell me you’ve been improvising all of this?” Bredbeddle gawps at you.
“Right. Okay, a plan. Let’s take stock of what we know.” The green knight hums to himself. “The demon lord STREGA is–maybe–is in his chamber. He’s at only a tiny fraction of his power, because his only source of magic is a handful of low-level monsters. He’s without an arm–his right one–since he set off a trap earlier that crushed a gauntlet and killed a few goblins.”
“And the demon lord’s chamber is a vast, empty, circular room, fit for duels.” You add on. “The stairs should lead right to it.”
“We’ve got myself, a pipsqueak “knight”, and pine needle.” The rogue folds her arms. “In terms of arms, we’ve got this big-ass axe that none of us can use, that curvy sword we just barely use, a couple rusty old skeleton swords, that creepy assassin wand, and the runt witch’s staff–which, again, none of us know how to use right. The demon lord has the wand you ACTUALLY use.”
