You'd been the one to make the decision to come into an alley, so this is what happens. The women surround you, not caring about your almost-crying state. A voice in the back spoke up. "She doesn't want to share!" And all the women started yelling.

April backed up, crossing her arms, "Whoever's out there, please help me" she cried out, closing her eyes and wincing back. She wished someone would help. Anyone at all. her thoughts were flowing around her mind and her eyes welling. She tried to get nearer Diana without falling over.

As you picked up the bag, you heard clinking sounds, and as you opened it, you found a rather lot of coins. Five golds, ten silvers, and a hundred coppers, to be exact. In the bottom, there was a small note, and as you looked at it, you could barely make up the words in the shadows of the bag. How much time do you plan to waste? The Lord is waiting.

She jumped hurriedly putting the things back in the bag and looking for the source of the word. I might not be alone she thought taking the bag and opening the ancient door peaking out. Time to face whatever waits me She looked around trying to figure out which way the Lord awaited. They either left me clues to find or are going to show or not show me. I will survive she thought.

The door was, again, a mahogany colour. It was smaller, however, than the first door you'd come upon, and there was a silver doorknob on the left of the door.

Wow! That was fast! Phoenix exclaimed. Now, to open this door... She looked around and spotted the doorknob. Aha! This must do something... She carefully gripped the doorknob, turned it left, and gently pulled on the door, being more cautious than she was with the other door.

The owner of the voice had suspiciously vanished, although you heart no sound whatsoever of them leaving. You were in a tiny room, with no window, and everything was quite dark. You were sitting on a not-so-comfortable bed cot, and your pet cat Cheshire snoozed beside you. You could make out the dark lump of a small bag by the foot of your bed, and you could also make out the shadow of a large door in the wall opposite of where you sat.

I slowly stand up, holding onto the bed for balance. I try to not disturb Cheshire and let the cat sleep longer. I carefully grab the bag and dumps its contents on the bed, viewing what they were.

Seeing that you have nothing else to ask, begone. Begin your adventure." He waved a hand, and you suddenly found yourself in the middle of a very busy square full of people, where an air of conversation hung over the entire place. There were merchants selling food, books, clothes, jewelry, armour and weapons, metalwork, glasswork, trinkets, and pretty much anything anyone could think of.

"You dumb stupid idoitic fool. Get lost!" I rolled my eyes and cursed. Feeling a bit hungry, I went to the food merchant to see if they have anything cheap, "Hi, I'm really new here, and I don't have much money, do you have some food that are cheap but tasty? And can you please tell me where the doctor is? Thank you!" I asked

The button slid into the wall, quickly followed by a faint click. The heavy-looking door swung open without a sound, as if it was a phantom in the darkness. Beyond the door you could see a dark hallway lit with torches incased in iron bars, giving the whole place a quite gloomy feel.

One of the women grabbed Diana by the tail and hauled her out of the trash can, Diana screeching loudly as she tried to wriggle out of her grasp.
"My brethren!" You hear a young girl voice yell, and the ladies all suddenly stop, shuffling to the side to make a path, revealing a young lady, dressed in tatters like they did. She didn't walk towards you down the path like the cliche stuff in the movies, but instead, she stood at the end of her side as the women surrounding you muttered in between themselves. "What do we have here, ey?" The girl snarled. She was shorter than you, but her expression was still fierce. "Another one?"

You finally decided that the only way out of the room was through the ancient, deep red door at the end of the room. You walk over to it, to discover that time had definitely eaten away at the door, seeing there were cracks everywhere, but the door didn't seem any less effective at blocking whatever was behind it. In fact, it looked like it was really heavy.

The door opens into a large chamber/room. It was the cross between a throne room and a meeting room, with one huge white stone table occupying the middle of it, and at one end of the table it was raised, and there was a throne. The room you were now in was much brighter than the one you woke up in and the black marble hallway, blinding you momentarily and causing Art to peep and burry her head into your hair. The white eventually fades from your eyes and you find that apart from you, there were many others in the room, in small groups, conversing with each other in hushed tones. Now that your eyes were clear, you discover that on the throne at the raised end of the table, someone lounged there, and they seemed to be watching you.

The contents of the bag clinked as they fell out, pooling into a pile on the bed beside Cheshire. They were coins! Among them, there were five golds, ten silvers, and a hundred coppers, as you counted them. There was also a small note, and in the near-pitch-darkness, you could make out some words.
How much time do you plan to waste? The Lord is waiting.
