*Dally enters the bar and waves to you, she seems completely exhausted, but she’s just as happy as the last time she was here!*

“But if there are infinite possibilities then there is a possibility that one could find a way to live through all of time. One could make themselves unable to die of age. I have heard of methods that people could use to achieve this, such as lichdom. But such rituals and options are not for me.”
-
“Even with all of tome you still couldn’t see it all, there’s just too much there.” “And yeah, immortality isn’t for most people.”
-
“Most rituals I’ve heard of to become immortal are rather evil and dangerous. So I believe you would be rig there. Still many reach for that goal.”
-
“Yeah, dark magic itself is typically something to avoid, but even if there was a safer way to achieve immortality most people would probably find forever to be waaay too long.”
-
“Perhaps. But some may still wish to be immortal. Dark magic can lead to great power, but at great costs that not many are willing to pay.”
-
“We’re just lucky no one’s cared enough to find an easier way to cast those spells, or we’d be dealing with a lot more villains.”
-
“That would be a shame. But I have unfortunately seen a fair share of dark arts. Luckily for us it is quite hard to easily reproduce.”
-
“Mhm.” “Well I should really return to my work, it’s been nice meeting you.”
-
“It has been nice meeting you as well. I shan’t distract you any more. But if you do need help, I’ll probably be at some inn.”

“That’s only a little bit concerning.” *He starts to walk away as well. Only to turn around a bit later and put a pair of monocles on, a enchanted set that give him much better and zoomed in vision, so he can see how owl gets into the lab.*
-
*I don’t seem to do much, I stand in front of the door for a second and it just seems to open.*
-
*The wizard takes note of this, and with a frustrated huff he leaves.*

Edited by Ace Night Owl: 6/10/2020 11:42:43 PM*You notice a small signal receiver on the wall far above the door and you recall the device Dally used to open the door. Seems like it takes a specific signal to open.*
-
“Hmm it seems if I wish to proceed and find the information I need inside that I will need one of those signaling devices. But do not fear, I shall get one in due time.” *The necromancer animates a skeleton of a small bird, just to watch the entrance from above.*
-
*A few hours after dark Dally leaves the lab and heads out towards the woods for a short walk. You see her put the device in her pocket as she leaves the lab.*
-
*The skeletal bird follows her, psychically alerting the necromancer to her location and waiting for her to be far enough for backup to arrive quickly.*
-
*After a while she arrives at a small clearing. She lays down on the grass and takes a bit to chill under the sky before heading home.*
-
*Watching from afar, the necromancer will cast a spell to summon 4 shadows, undead creatures made of pure darkness. One goes to try to pickpocket the device from her, while the others wait close by in case they are noticed and have to resort to forcefully taking the device.*
-
*Dally notices the attempted pickpocketing, hops up, draws a knife she had hidden on her, and prepares for battle!* [spoiler]I have to sleep now, continue tomorrow?[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Sure, if we even can while the bar is closed.[/spoiler] *The 4 shadowy undead surround her, cutting off any escape.*
-
[spoiler]Ive seen some comment threads go on for about 2 days after it closes, the closing is just saying he won’t be responding to new threads.[/spoiler] “Whoever’s in charge of these things, call them off!” *Dally gets into a defensive position.*
-
*One of them charges forwards to test how strong it’s opponent is, swiping a flawed hand towards her face.*
-
*She quickly dodges!* (19) *Dally retaliates with a slash from her knife!* (15)
-
[spoiler]Oh, you are rolling dice. I have D&D stats for these guys that I can use. Would the knife she is using count as a magical weapon?[/spoiler] *She is able to avoid the strike but the knife doesn’t seem to do much against the creature. It will claw again as well as its 3 companions. Only one of them seems to have a chance of hitting though. (13, 12, 1, and 18)
