Roy's journey into the ruins was not without some level of hardship, but nothing so deadly so much as repetitive. As much as it can be expected of a ruined city, must of it's infrastructure was in ruins and thus it left many perilous pathways where once there were easily traversal paths or streets. It seems like whatever disaster that turned Norn into a ruin had split the earth, as much of the obstacles Roy would face would be finding some way to avoid falling into a deep abyss to his presumed death. There were some paths he could attempt to take that typically ran the gamut of narrow, unstable, or ambiguous hostile. But those were simply the paths forward. Perhaps Roy could continue moving around the edge of the city, find more reliable footpaths to get deeper into the ruins. So long as he's willing to gamble facing off against other creatures who, like him, lack the courage to brave the perilous path through the ruined city and chance an encounter with one another.

The choice, as always, was his to make.

Varrock tossed a rock that nearly beaned the ogre in the head, but Varrock simply walked a bit to his right and picked up another stone. He tested the weight, threw it again, and also narrowly avoided hitting the ogre. This time it was intentional as he picked up a third stone in order to break the beast from it's trance. [b]"Ah, don't you seem like such an almighty and powerful adventurer! Why, makes me wonder what purpose you [i]possibly[/i] need the likes of me for. Let me be square with you, harlot: I'm not so naive to think that this is going to be some romantic tale of a sorcerer and her brave knight traversing this ruin finding treasures and their feelings. I don't [i]trust you[/i], especially with all this magic power you do have. I got no reason to keep you alive even if you're useful. So unless you got something you can give me [i]now[/i]," Varrock raised the stone to throw again. [b]"You can talk to that ogre."[/b]
