Start of Chapter Three:
Sammi found herself at the mouth of a deep, dark cave. It was built into the side of a large mountain. She could hear echos of long-lost wails from within. Telling herself it was only the wind, she decided to

Without a shadow of doubt in her actions, Sammi stepped forward into the caverns. The goblin girl timidly followed behind her, moving to clutch at Sammi's legs.
Through the darkness, Sammi noticed two tunnels in the northern wall.

Holding tightly to Sammi's left leg, the girl looked up; Sammi could see the fear in her eyes. Saying nothing, the girl lifted her left arm and pointed at the north-west tunnel.

[13] Searching the room, Sammi found a torn piece of cloth, lodged between two stones in the northern wall. She tried to move quietly as she made her way through the entrance cavern [18].
Without a sound she continued to look around the room. On the ground she saw…

One set of large footprints heading towards the North East, and a number of smaller footprints heading towards the North West.

[1] Examining the cloth, Sammi [9] discovered it was faded, and torn. It appeared as if age, not struggle, had led to its current condition. The remnants of a yellow stitched Z shaped lightning bolt crossed a large S on a field of red.#SammisQuest

As she was looking over the cloth Sammi heard a noise coming from the North-East cavern.

Sammi scooped up the cloth as she slid behind a small outcrop where she was [21] completely hidden by the shadows.
Hearing the booming sound come closer the goblin girl turned to run out of the cave!

Sammi whispered for the goblin to come over to her. The girl stopped to look, but seemed undecided. Motioning furiously, Sammi pleaded with the goblin to join her behind the rock [15], successfully persuading her.
There was little time left, as the sound came closer.

As quickly as she could, the girl shuffled towards Sammi [5], falling on the stone. [14] If not for Sammi's lightning fast reflexes, the goblin would have been in the middle of the cavern when the hulking beast finally made its way into the entrance cavern!

From the safety of their rock, Sammi and the girl saw the sounds they hear were footsteps from a giant Ogre! Sammi knew she was no match for the beast, and the girl wouldn't last a minute against it.
— Sammi's Quest (@SammisQuest) December 7, 2017
Sammi shhed the girl as the Ogre came closer. She hoped it would leave the caverns, allowing them to move on. But it did not! Worse still, it seemed to be moving towards the boulder they were hiding behind!
Rightfully terrified Sammi:#SammisQuest #Poll #DnD #CYOA #RPG

The ogre walked all the way to the stone Sammi and the goblin were hiding behind. Trembling, the grasped Sammi's leg, fingers digging into her mythril leggings.
"Ruuuuugh!" The ogre exclaimed before sitting o n the ground, using the rock to scratch it's back.

Glad they were not discovered, Sammi and the goblin looked at each other. With pleading eyes, the goblin pointed to the Western tunnel.
Taking notice, and moving slowly so as not to gain the attention of the ogre Sammi…#DnD #Poll #SammisQuest #CYOA #RPG

Heeding the girl's advice Sammi moved very quietly; she tried not to make any sounds at all [18]. In no time she and the goblin had made it to the west tunnel. Sammi was about to enter: The Goblin Caverns! #SammisQuest #LevelUp #DnD #RPG #CYOAhttps://t.co/b2ZXK3sXqe pic.twitter.com/vqRj2NsyDw

Moving through the Western tunnel Sammi could hear noises coming from the next chamber. It sounded like creatures moving around.

Moving towards the tunnel's end, [26] Sammi moved in complete silence. She motioned for the goblin girl not to move. Fearing the girl would make a clumsy mistake, Sammi wanted to scout ahead neither giving away her position to the ogre, nor those ahead.#SammisQuest

Peering into the room [10] Sammi made out a number of stalagmites that grew from the ground, ten feet from both the right and the left of the central path, which seemed to lead to the next cavern. She could see, or hear no movement.

[2]Sammi listened carefully at the end of the tunnels. [11] She heard what sounded like pebbles falling on the cavern floor.
The sounds seemed to be coming from behind the stalagmites that grew up from the floor. Sammi thought it was probably just the walls crumbing from age.

Leaving the girl behind, Sammi approached the western stalagmites [11] attempting to stay hidden. She listened carefully to see if she could head any more noises [9]. All seemed quiet. She was sure that the sound had been nothing, though she did check the area [5] to be sure.
— Sammi's Quest (@SammisQuest) December 24, 2017
The north tunnel stretched deeper into the caverns. [15]From far off Sammi [12] thought she could hear a rock scrape, and the sudden sound of rushing water.

As Sammi turned the corner of the northern tunnel, she heard plodding footsteps echoing through the southern tunnel. [5] Though she couldn't be sure, she thought it might be the ogre.
Her assumption was confirmed when the monosyllabic guttural voice called out "feed time now!"
— Sammi's Quest (@SammisQuest) December 26, 2017
Sammi took solace in the fact that the goblin girl was now alone in the entrance. She would be free to escape, or find safety. [17]As she stepped into the new room, she could clearly hear the sound of pebbles falling once more.
A blue glow was coming from the next room.
— Sammi's Quest (@SammisQuest) December 26, 2017
Walking in, Sammi was amazed by the shimmering cavern walls. Light emenated from glowing tendrils branching out from lichen affixed to the walls. The slightest breeze sent them swaying in a nearly hypnotic rhythm.
Seeing it, Sammi… [4].#SammisQuest #Poll #TwitterDnD #DnD
