'Some of these men threatened the mission, trying to force me to lead them to the surface before reaching Deepholt. 'I'll also need some rest but I'll gladly give my report before that, when my mind is still clear.' Kizzirark comes closer to Sir Raquir and speaks in a low tone. 'Your men are now your responsibility but the others are mine so I'll pay for the expense of lodging and food they will require, nothing to fancy though.'

In a cleared spot of open ground, Sir Raquir stands, arms akimbo. Soon Kizzirark is standing under the bright 'sun' of Deepholt, seeing the same small set of farms, shacks and lake that make up the tiny colony. The haflings stay as a group though, unsure of what the Chelish will make of them.

Zak grumbles, shielding his eyes against the growing light, but he goes on, carrying the Abadar like.well, a holy symbol.Įveryone else rushes toward the light, stumbling and blinking.

Colony survival game too bright
