The bar fell out when I hit it and only pieces no bigger than my nails remain. The inmates are ethereal or corporeal or some kind of eal and can't match my strength to the slightest. I can use my other hand and I've even tore a piece of my pants off if that'll help.

If you're strong enough to punch through stone wall, wouldn't it be significantly quicker to break the locking mechanism on your cell door instead? It would take a lot less hits, and the wall next to your probably just leads to an adjacent cell.

You were right the bars broke easily in comparison to the wall. There aren't any guards or even any city left down there but down there is at least 40 feet of fall distance. Should I risk it? I could try escaping through the cell doors but then I'll no doubt encounter some men.
>>
No. 553820 ID: e8949c

Look up and see if you can reach a higher cell window or even the roof. If you can't i suggest you start working on the cell door and risk encountering the guards instead of breaking your legs.

Reach over and bop his head against that torch holder a few times to knock him out. You could also drag him over the edge but that would probably make a bit of noise.

As I remove the helmet I realize he is a she and I know her. It's Alison, I thought she and the others would've moved on as soon as I got arrested seeing as we didn't know eachother all that well... Oh hell I hope she's alright.

Wait so was she a real guard or just dressed up as one and the sack is full of stolen loot?
Oh well shes probably dead now so you better just move on and start investigating that large bag.
>>
No. 553855 ID: 379075

Unconscious is not dead, if you can get her to safety. The contents of the bag and what tools Alison has are the two things we most need to know about right now: If she has rope for instance that would be very useful for carrying her and yourself around and possibly even some scaling.

We should try to get out of here, do you know the layout of this place, and how hard would it be to get Alison out with you? We possibly owe her a favour, because this collection of items looks a lot like she was planning to rescue you: Way too many weapons for one person.

I won't be able to take it all and I have no idea what's in the bottles, I failed in any alchemists classes I ever took. I can tell the book is magic but little else, the language is very foreign to me. I don't know the prison layout but I know one thing for sure if I want to take all of this I'll have to take it unequipped with a weapon otherwise I'll have to leave something behind. I would carry everything in the bag and in my open hand Alison.
>>
No. 554188 ID: 3179c8

Dump all the weapons over the wall and carry everything else in the bag and carry Alison with you.
With your strenght almost anything can be used as a viable weapon.

Start moving in the direction Alison was going

I don't really know how to pitch traps. But I can tell how badly Alison is wounded, which isn't too terrible, if I'd been using my hands though... Anyways I didn't. I can start a fire and my hand is shattered within and still hurts like hell. It won't get worse but it won't get better. I'll need a healer or a damn good surgeon if I want to fix that.

no, one could be poison. but this means that we may not need a healer. maybe alison will know when she wakes up?

"Sorry your disguise was really good!"
"You knocked me out!?" She hesitates and then looks around. "Where the hell are we?"
"The woods, we got out safe enough"
"Well the others left you behind, I should've done the same apparently" and she touches her swollen face again. "You poured out my things?!"
She gathers together the potions.
"Listen, I need some sort of healing for my hand, I broke it up pretty bad trying to get the hell out of that cage, do you have anything?"
She glares at me. "No, the potions are all poisons. If you had gone swigging these bad boys you'd be dead."

Apologize again for knocking her out and thank her for the attempted rescue. Then ask what her plan was and how you can help.
