Viva La Resistance!

[Wylie]

Wylie awoke to a dim light and the fall of dust on his face. A hooded priest stood over him with a heal staff similar to his own.

"Ah. You've awoken," the man said with a smile.

Still weak, Wylie responded, "Where am I? Who are you?"

"You are in the home of the Resistance."

"The who?"

"The Resistance. We are those who have banded together to fight the Inquisitor's evil regime, and we look to rescue those who fall at the hands of his men. That's you. We took care of that knight who was about to finish you off."

Sitting up now, Wylie looked down at his body. It was perfectly healed. In fact, he felt great too. Except for the stabbing pain left by... Crowley. Crow, he remembered his friend's sacrifice and lay back down, covering his face with his hands. Deep breaths.

He took a minute to calm himself and spoke again. "Well then thank you for saving me." This was all he spoke before another loud rumble sounded, and more dust fell on his face. He looked around and for the first time noticed he was underground. "What was that?"

There's an intense battle going on over our heads," the man replied. Though I do not know who is fighting. Rest, and it will pass.



(OoC: hey all, turns out I'm not dead. Hey, I was planning on leading these Resistance guys in a battle against Kraft's castle to fight alongside the finale group, but I need to know: Are you gonna survive this battle to even get that far? Should I bring in the Resistance troops now? What do you guys think. Just write it as an OoC or in the cbox. )

The fighting above Wylie continued on while he tried to rest. Sometimes it felt like the earth itself was rumbling, and once or twice, a sharp, evil laugh would just penetrate the rock between him and the fighters, giving him shivers.

He eventually rose and walked out of the room to explore his new surroundings. He ended up walking into what appeared to be a planning session. There were several armoured figures standing around a table which held a large and detailed map of the city. Each of them looked up at Wylie when he entered the room.

"Ah, Wrestler. It is good to see you awake, and to finally meet you," one of them said, offering his hand. The others murmured general agreement.

"Uh, likewise," replied Wylie, shaking the hand but still feeling confused with the situation. "And who am I speaking to?"

"My name is General Vidas. The men you see before you as well as myself, are the former governing body of the Etrurian military. When it became clear that we couldn't fight off the Inquisitor with strength alone, we took what was left of our forces and retreated to these underground passages."

Things were becoming clearer now for Wylie and he asked the General, "what are these passages exactly?"

They are the Ruler's secret escape passages. When the city was built. The Ruler of the time commissioned these to be built in such a way that he could travel quickly and in secret to and from a few key locations.
