Lone Wolf: The Journey Begins

I've selected the skills. We now have:
- Camouflage and Sixth Sense as you guys both chose them.

- Weaponskill and Mindblast. These will help compensate for Cheeseburger's inadequate combat skill score. Plus blowing things up with your mind is too awesome to pass up. I rolled a 3 for Weaponskill, granting us +2 to our combat score when using a short sword.

- I went for Healing for the 5th and final skill. This Cheeseburger is a tank.

After rolling some dice, it seems we start out with the following inventory:
- An axe
- A sword (not short)
- 2 gold crowns

So it begins:

You must make haste for you sense it is not safe to linger by the smoking remains of the ruined monastery. The black-winged beasts could return at any moment. You must set out for the Sommlending capital of Holmgard and tell the King the terrible news of the massacre: that the whole élite of Kai warriors, save yourself, have been slaughtered. Without the Kai Lords to lead her armies, Sommerlund will be at the mercy of their ancient enemy, the Darklords.

Fighting back tears, you bid farewell to your dead kinsmen. Silently, you promise that their deaths will be avenged. You turn away from the ruins and carefully descend the steep track.

At the foot of the hill, the path splits into two directions, both leading into a large wood.

If you wish to use your Kai Discipline of Sixth Sense, turn to 141.

If you wish to take the right path into the woods, turn to 85.

If you wish to follow the left track, turn to 275.

- Time to utilize our newly-chosen Sixth Sense skill!

Your Sixth Sense has warned you that some of the creatures that attacked the monastery are searching the two paths for any survivors of their raid, but you can avoid both tracks by making your way through the undergrowth of the woods.

If you wish to head south, turn to page 56.

Or if you wish to cut through the heavier foliage towards the northeast, turn to page 333.

- Ok people! Northeast through the foliage or south through, um, the non-foliage? Choosing time!
