You travel hastily out of the castle city. Once safely out of view in a small grove of trees, Aspero pauses, and turns to face you.
"I need to explain to you what we're doing. I told you that we're doing a simple nuisance attack on a supposed shadow camp. That was a lie to fool eavesdroppers."
He pauses, as if trying to find the best way to share his thoughts. "We are actually attacking a shadowlord's headquarters. This could be a pivotal point in the war.
"Now, why only you and me? Too many people missing would be suspicious. And, I don't fully trust Lusim. You see, he--"
A loud noise emanates from nearby, and stops his sentence. "Come! We must move!"

You carefully climb the steep hill from which the clanging originated. As you reach the top, a terrifying scene comes into view. Hundreds of shadow enemies have settled in a huge camp in the highlands. Siege machines are being constructed in makeshift forges that are scattered throughout the camp. Armor and weapons are being made, there too. You wonder what this army could possibly be doing here...

[Nice story. :P Be careful, that was a little close to limit on how much I'll let a player control. In the future, try to keep your post limited to what your player does. Don't say what something is or what happens to you unless I have already, please. It just makes everything easier. ]
When you awaken, the shadow ceiling hangs low over you like a deadly smoke screen. You try to run away, but every time you enter the shadows you somehow get turned around and walk right back to where you started.
