Exploring the area leads you deeper and deeper into a cave. The light grows dimmer. You start to wonder if treasure hunting here was a good idea.

You follow after the escaping prisoners and guards, although not too quickly as you don't want to accidentally run into a guard.
As you run along, you are suddenly yanked into a side corridor...

You move out. The leader assigns Holderen to watch over you and assess your abilities.

"We're heading to the cell area where our friends are being kept," says the Ridgeback. "We'll need to figure out where you can best help the group."
You offer the keys you grabbed by your cell, but the other dragon shakes his head.
"That's a nice thought, but the holding cells have a complete different set of guards and those keys won't be much use where we're going. No, the best use for you would be as lookout or as a guard for the group who needs to break into the cell."
You think it over - would you rather grab a weapon and potentially have to fight the prison guards or just keep lookout for the group?

That was a terrible idea. The Ridgeback carried a staff, after all, and you had no weapons with you.
The dragon quickly knocks you out and leaves you in the hallway, ruining any chance of escape for you.
A guard finds you a short time later, still passed out, and takes you back to a cell.

After a brief chat, where you explain how you escaped from your cell, the Ridgeback leads you to their leader.

Kaldkjaerlighet looks you over and explains that they aren't actually escaping prisoners (well, not this time anyway), but they are engineering a prison break for some compatriots that had unfortunately got captured during a misadventure.
You are sympathetic, remembering how you ended up in a holding cell yourself.
The Skydancer offers to let you tag along if you help them rescue their friends. The offer is tempting - they know their way around and have the supplies necessary to survive the harsh landscape outside the fortress.
Still, you hesitate. You're here on relatively minor charges - helping others with a prison break could make things go a lot worse for you if you end up captured. Maybe finding a way out on your own would be better after all.

You thank them for their offer, but explain that you're in a bit of a hurry and don't want to take the risk.
You get a bit nervous with the way the female Ridgeback is eyeing you, but the male Ridgeback in the group is the one who rushes at you...

...to give you a hug. He wishes you well and their group gets moving again.
You feel confident that you are on the right track. However, you do need to decide where to go next. You can follow their group from a safe distance and branch off whenever you find a promising path out or go the opposite direction and try to avoid any guards that might be after them.

In retrospect, you should have just been the lookout.
Rescuing the prisoners from their cell initially went well, but now the guards have found your group and a scuffle has broken out. The others seem to be doing fine, but you are already wearing out. You weren't prepared to battle such well-trained guards.
You have come to the conclusion that you are in danger of falling behind and getting captured. You aren't sure anyone in your group is watching out for you now that they've rescued their friends.
Choose one:
Stay and fight. At least the others will be able to get away.
Time to acknowledge the fact that you aren't much help in this situation. You should find a safe spot and wait this out.
42
Once you arrive at the correct cell block, the others get started on breaking their friends free.
The leader nods to you, and you go around the corner to begin your watch. You're starting to get bored when you hear movement in the hall. Guards are coming!
Choose one:
You're having second thoughts about actually helping with a prison break and letting criminals loose. Warn the guards about what's going on.
You rush back to the group and let them know that the guards are near!
43
You enter an area that's unlike any other part of the fortress that you've seen so far. It looks like there are plants and trees growing out of the ice.

It's a bit surreal and definitely creepy. You feel like you've entered a haunted forest.
You can try to skirt around the edge and hope to find an exit or take the path straight down the center.

You take advantage of another dragon slamming into the guard you were battling to sneak into a side corridor. Sprinting down the hall, you come to a door - this looks as good of a place to hide as any.

Now that you have a moment to rest, you look around. Somehow you found your way to provision storage room - looks like there's plenty of snacks and a pool of fresh water. What luck!
You browse the shelves and grab something that looks good to you. Munching, you notice that the sounds of the skirmish outside have grown dimmer.
You decide it might be a good time to poke your head out and see if the path is clear. Unfortunately, the door won't open - it seems like something might have fallen against it on the other side.
Looks like you're stuck now.
