With a heavy sigh, I decide to ransack the alcoves full of dead monks for treasure. After all, what could go wrong? As I reach into the first alcove within this ancient, long-forgotten chamber, a bizarre and unsettling phenomenon occurs - the very air around me warps and contorts, giving rise to a horde of undead creatures who have apparently been roused from their slumber with the intention of protecting their resting place. A symphony of screeches echoes throughout the room as skeletons and zombies surge forth from the shadows, ready to thwart any would-be tomb raiders such as myself.
I find myself surrounded by a group of skeletons and zombies who are determined to protect their territory. The group is led by a skeleton warrior, clad in rusted armor and wielding a shortsword with bones that gleam menacingly in the darkness. Its eyes are hollow and empty, yet its movements are silent and relentless. "Well," I say, sarcasm dripping from my voice, "it's not every day one gets attacked by their own fan club."
Combat ensues as I engage in battle with three skeleton warriors and two zombies. The first skeleton warrior charges towards me, brandishing its shortsword and striking a devastating blow that leaves me reeling from the impact. I suffer a significant amount of damage, but before I can catch my breath, I am struck down once again. "Oh, how lovely," I mutter sarcastically, "you skeletons are just dying to get to know me better."
This time, however, I am mysteriously revived by an unknown divine entity that seems to have taken an interest in my plight. Despite being on the brink of defeat, I manage to rally and strike back with my battleaxe, delivering a crushing blow to the third skeleton warrior. Its bones shatter into pieces, and it falls to the ground, defeated. However, my victory is short-lived as I am once again struck down by the second skeleton warrior. This time, there is no divine intervention, and I succumb to my injuries.
My expedition has come to a tragic end, with myself lying lifeless on the cold stone floor, soon to become a skeleton warrior who will not have rest until I have been defeated by some future adventurer. "Well," I think wryly, "at least we'll finally have something in common." And so, with my final thoughts filled with sarcasm and wit, I close my eyes and embrace the darkness.
