The Nightmare Court: Chapter 2

by Lysander Thurwood

After a week of reading and talking to Sir Winks I have learned of an organization known as “The Nightmare Court”. With no other information I grabbed the strongest entity Gordo and I had trapped in a bottle, Void King Orlorn, and used him to locate where the cursed energy was coming from.
 
We went to a bar first where Kai met with his mysterious freind, while I helped Rorric stay disguised from some of his former gang.
 
After a while of searching we came upon a toy shop run by robot workers. We were able to get into contact with the store’s owner, Figgy, who wanted the bottle I had containing Orlorn.
 
A fight broke out with Figgy and I dueling spells while Kai, Winks, and Rorric fought the robots armed with spears and cross bolts. After a few second the shop began to catch fire from Figgy’s flaming yo yo’s and She fled to the basement . As I watched her retreat I was struck with a cross bolt from behind by a robot. After dispatching the rest of the robot henchmen, Winks used a spell to locate Figgy in the basement.
 
Figgy came out of the hatch with a massive robot named B.A.R.T. She used him to put out all the flames and then we began to fight once more. I was able to hold off B.A.R.T long enough with my laughing spell while Winks began to melt him. With one last surge B.A.R.T punched Rorric and I with a steam punch. I was knocked unconscious as I realized B.A.R.T had a soul in him.
 
I was brought back to after Winks had melted B.A.R.T completely. Now all through with the chaotic battle, and the city guards coming soon, we gather to interrogate Figgy.
