Illumina

OK, this is it!

After having spent uncountable hours roaming the castle, or at least so it feels, trying to avoid being caught by the guards, which are now hot on your heels, you have finally arrived at the damp dungeon where the beautiful Princess Illumina is held captive. Catching your breath, you allow yourself a few moments to reflect upon your mission. First of all, you still haven't figured out how the citizens managed to talk you into taking this task upon you. Yes, the Princess is the hope and inspiration of the people, and without her to lead them they would never have built up the courage to revolt against the evil knight who has taken over the country, yada yada yada. But doing this for free doesn't quite go with your trade as a traveling warrior (your words). Most people would just call you a mercenary.

Nevertheless, you have entered the dark castle and after overcoming all sorts of dangers, some of which you could have been without, you are now standing in a dimly lit dungeon. The air is quite acrid and makes it hard to breathe. Princess Illumina is held captive behind the prison door. You are close, so close that you can almost taste the sweet taste of victory, another feather in your cap, another tale to be told around the fireplace at night.

DANISH:

OK, Så langt, så godt!

Du orker ikke at tænke på alle de timer du har tilbragt her i borgen, med at undgå vagter, overvinde diverse fælder og alle mulige andre besværligheder. Men nu er du her i fangekælderen, godt nok med en flok vagter i hælene, så din tid er kostbar. Det er her den smukke prinsesse Illumina holdes fanget.

Du tager dig tid til, kortvarigt, at fundere over hvordan du har fået dig rodet ind i dette eventyr. Hvordan er det lykkedes byens folk at overtale dig til, gratis endda, at forsøge at befri den smukke prinsesse, om hvem det siges at blot synet af hende vil give folket mod til at bekæmpe borgherren. Hun er således deres eneste håb om at befri byen fra borgherrens grådige enevælde.

Ikke desto mindre befinder du dig altså nu i fangekælderen, og enden på din mission er nær. Luften her er tung og ætsende, og gør det svært at trække vejret uden at det gør ondt i brystet. Prinsesse Illumina befinder sig bag celledøren. Tæt, så tæt at du næsten kan smage sejrens sødme.
