Thats what Arx Spes means, thats what we've called our little hideout here. Yes, a hideout. I call it a wretched fate, but then I always was a pessimist.
It looks pretty, doesn't it? Some ancient architecture a paranoid king had build to be unconquerable, fearing the worst. Who'd have thought his fears would become truth?
Yes, you know what I'm talking about, all around us, everyone is conquered. Humand, elves, dwarfs, even more exotic races are now trapped in here, with us. Because the alternative is to be out there, someones plaything, or worse, to become like them.
No, I don't believe the theories that we won a victory at an incredible price, I believe we just lost their interest.. they already have the world, its just too much of a bother to take this one fortress, but if you head out there, they will come and if you defeat them, well, you will simply lure the more powerful generals here..
"Don't look at me like that. No young one, I have not given up. Why do you think I cast the spell that maintains a forcefield around these walls every day? I just lack your fire. I think we should be content with what we have, lest it be taken away too.
You want to head out, to try and join the fights, or even liberate the lands from demonic influence? Go ahead. I shall not stop you. But know that if you go out there, they will come.
You could head out to simply defend Arx Spes, to lighten my load a little, or continue on towards the corrupted lands. Just remember, unless you defeat all the demons there and liberate the land, the magic will serve these creatures, not you. And even if you liberate this land, if it is not sucessfully defended by heroes in the future it shall simply be corrupted once more, do you see now why I hesitate? One last thing before you go.. there is nothing wrong about teaming up against the powerful demons. If you try to fight one on one, fair and square, there is a good chance you will lose and be perversly corrupted.. and of course no one would wish that fate upon you, right? But if you wish to know, you can fight at:"
Arx Spes, Hopehold, The Last Bastion
-Can't be corrupted.(but of course, in character that is because the valiant heroes keep fighting back the demons.)
-All heroes fighting here gain a single use of a force field. (Absorbs 5 points of damage)
