Towards the Chateau, through the Cave.

And we reached the portcullis that Melie was talking about which could be our only way out of this place. So, its time we get out of this place.

After getting to the door of the bridge there, I had to open it and Melie was still mocking Amicia by mentioning her as "your highness" where Amicia was just trying to get along with them to survive.

After getting to the bridge, we found Lucas held captive with a soldier there. Melie suggested me to knock the soldiers helmet off with a devorantis and after doing that, I took him down using a rock and we just saved Lucas.

Lucas started waving on us saying he's glad to see us again and Hugo ran to him fast and started telling Lucas about what mess they had to come through to get to Lucas. Then Amicia was asking Lucas how he's been and Melie was asking if they could run and talk or sit down with some wine and roasted chicken and wait for the enemies to come and kill them.

We were following Lucas towards the Chateau, and Melie started talking to Lucas about why he didn't tell them about the inquisition and why he lied about Amicia being rich and Lucas said they'll sort everything out. We noticed an inquisition cart on the way and it looked like they met an accident. Btw, I was wandering where the rats were in this dark.

Then it looked like I made a mistake of thinking about the rats cause we just found some there just by the inquisition cart where must be something that we can salvage from inside. Then Lucas gave me something to make another weapon called Luminosa that I can throw on a pile of rats and burn them off.

It was a fantastic weapon and our path got cleared. Then I went inside the cart to see what I can found there and it looked like the cart was packed full of alchemical material so I grabbed whatever I could from there and there was a workbench a well.

Then we kept moving and we reached this place where I had to use my sling to get the ladder down for us and in the meantime, Lucas asked Melie about his brother and the girl said she doesn't want to talk about this which tells Melie was still not happy being with them, she was just surviving. I hope she won't sell the siblings to the inquisition having the option.

After climbing the ladder, we reached somewhere that looks like there was nothing there and we just reached a deadline. When Amicia and Lucas was talking about the consequences, Melie opened a hidden door there after looking around for a moment which took us to a cave route.

Then we reached this beautiful cave where there were water that Hugo thought as the sea, poor kid. It looked like this place has been used by other peoples before which means, we were on the right track.

There we found a reaction ferry which is a boat that's propelled by a rope someone pull by hand and there was a hand crank as well. Now we need to get to the other side using that boat.

To know what happens next, you need to keep following me so you don't miss my next post.

That's all for now. I'll write about more of this story again soon. Be safe till we meet again.
Au revoir/Goodbye.
