This is part of a story that works as an interactive game. You’ll need to have some paper and dice at the ready! Click here for the beginning of the story. You can find a reminder of the rules here, or head back to the previous chapter here.

By the way, readers, this chapter starts off pretty much the same as ‘To Join The Bastion’s Finest!’, but the later part of the story reflects a different choice.

By early evening, you make it to The Bastion. There was surprisingly little trouble on the way. Well, it should be that way, you reflect — this is the biggest city on the whole island, with the best roads running to and from it. Safe(ish) for travellers and traders.

You’re sure that trouble won’t be far away, however.

The city itself is vast and spectacular, with huge halls, Gothic round-towers, broad cobbled streets, and people of all kinds and species, from beast-folk to half-orcs to fish-folk. There’s even the occasional goblin! You’re aware that the land’s great temples are based here, not to mention Perion’s Pit, the famous combat school.
