Episode 673: The Message
You slowly follow Liam out of the cell. He waits for you in the torch-lit hall and you fall into step beside him.
The hall, at first, is just stone. But after you walk up a flight of winding stairs the stones become covered with brilliant tapestries and the floors turn from stone to polished marble. Sunlight streams in through large windows that reveal a pine forest as far as you can see.
"Where am I?" you question the silent man beside you.
"Far from home," Liam replies.
Determined to get some sort of information out of this man you say, "You're a sorcerer."
Liam smiles sarcastically. "I'm glad to find that, not only are Arthur's men strong fighters, they are also great at deductive reasoning."
You attempt to not glare at him. "Why did you let me live?"
"I needed a messenger."
"You can't tell King Arthur yourself?"
He laughs at that. "Of course not. I'd get beheaded in an instant."
Confusion fills you. "What is your message?"
Liam smiles. "You're impatient, alright I'll tell you. You are going to tell your king that I plan on invading his kingdom... in three months."
You find that you have stopped walking. Shock has bolted your feet to the floor. "Invade?"
"Not only that, you're also going to give him information on my numbers and strategies."
Liam stares at you and waits for your reply.
