Nathan stood in the doorway, caught between horror, relief and a haze of pain. Taeol dho Droxol, the man who’d abducted him across dimensions, manipulated his mind and been ready to rip his soul out, had escaped. And now Nathan didn’t need to kill him. Couldn’t kill him. That was probably bad; Taeol didn’t seem likely to forgive Nathan or forget about the knowledge in his head. And Nathan was still furious with the man. But Nathan was having a hard time feeling bad about not being able to kill somebody.
Maybe if he ran far enough, fast enough, Taeol wouldn’t be able to catch him. But he needed to start now. As if to emphasize the point, he heard a scrape of stone on stone as the sand-colored golem rounded the hall to Nathan’s right. Nathan turned and ran down the hallway, awkwardly cradling the stump of his left arm where it jarred with every step.
And I only have one arm now
He heard the Golem’s heavy footsteps chasing him, and rushed around a corner to find a wide flight of stairs winding around a huge square vertical shaft. A bright light shone down from the top, and the stairs and balustrade were made of the same seamless pale stone as the rest of the tower. Nathan started running down the staircase, skipping four steps at a time in his haste. The golem cornered behind him, its stone feet scraping against the floor and slamming on the steps as it descended. It was fast, but not great at turning corners on the staircase. Nathan continued down, looking over the edge for an exit. Nearly a hundred feet down was a grand hall, with statues on the walls and a shallow fountain in the center.
I’m not going to make it. Taeol mentioned more golems and traps, and this golem is going to catch up as soon as I get to a straightaway.
Nathan had one more untapped resource, and he quickly reviewed the list of classes he’d been offered earlier as he bounced himself off a wall to turn onto the next flight of stairs. It was a good thing that the knowledge of his classes was more or less inserted into his head since he couldn’t exactly ask the golem for a timeout. The pain from his arm was a gnawing, biting thing, and these were terrible circumstances to make a decision. But this decision needed to be made now.
