Blaze hops off his ship, wearing a suit and large brimmed hat, while carrying his normal cane. “Sucks Fox got a cold.” He looks around the area.

  • [spoiler]Chain 5![/spoiler] You creep around the edges of the camp, the majority of them distracted by the ritual. You're halfway there when the witches slit the throats of the men and collect their blood in the goblets...

  • You arrive at the doors as the witches begin walking around the ritual circle, pouring the blood out along lines carved in the dirt...

  • The doors appear to be sealed, with no obvious way of opening them... The witches have stopped at the edges of the circle and their chanting INTENSIFIES. [spoiler]My phone auto caps that word because memes and I'm tired of fighting it.[/spoiler]

  • As they chant, they tip their cups and pour out a stream of blue flames that follow the blood to the center and create a spiraling pillar that rises higher and higher!

  • Blaze gasps as he sees this. He watches more intently.

  • A roar echoes through the mountains and a massive demon emerges from the pillar of fire. Two horns curve out from a mane of blue flame upon its head, glaring with eyes that glow even brighter. It stands nearly fifteen feet tall with a muscular body covered in ice-like armor and a long tail lashing behind it, covered in icy spikes. The demon stretches its leathery wings and lifts a massive, double headed greataxe coated in yet more blue flames, and stares down at the nearest witch. "We bind and summon you, fiend!" She shouts, "To break the seals on the great doors or reduce this cursed place to ash!"

  • The demon laughs. "Who are you to command me?" He then swings his axe and a wave of blue fire washes over the camp, incinerating the witch and many of the warriors!

  • As you search for a way to get away, you watch as a few of the remaining warriors fire their rifles at the demon while the rest of them flee, and the remaining witches run to two of the effigies and kick them over. The demon shields itself with a wing, then suddenly turns to the witches preparing to swing! You don't see a way to get away though...you're kinda stuck between a demon and a hard place...

  • The closest place to hide would be a large hide tent off to your left! The demon brings his very large axe down upon one of the witches as the last sprints towards a third effigy and kicks it over, then she orders the remaining warriors to do the same to the last four right before she gets smushed aswell!

  • You run past the chaos and slip into the tent! It's pretty cozy, there's a lit fire in the center and a pile of furs for bedding off to the side of it. Across from there is a table and chair, with a few candles and papers scattered about. Oh, also the standard witchy stuffs. A cauldron, mortar and pestle, a satchel of various dried plants.. et cetera.

  • Blaze looks through the papers to see if he can read any.

  • Skimming through the papers, a lot of it is in other languages or are diagrams of various bloody rituals and casting materials. You find a paper that seems to show attempts at translating the runes upon the doors to English. A note to the side states the doors only open under a New Moon...

  • It's still night at the moment. There's a waning crescent moon above, so the doors would open a few days from now at most. [spoiler]In game atleast, in real life it's whenever I feel up to posting part two...[/spoiler] The demon has slaughtered the remaining strangers and has gone to investigate the door itself.

  • [spoiler]So if you wish, we can end it here! This is pretty much the end of part 1. I also kinda like the idea that someone else comes along to kill the demon and you emerge from the tent like "Oh hi Mark."[/spoiler]
