Level III - Gods and Beasts

*******************************

Lara: It's colder than outside.
I was wise to put my jacket back on.


-------------------------------------

Cernunnos & Lara 1:

Lara: What ...!
The man in black might have been right
about the old gods.

Cernunnos: I am not just any
ancient god.
I am Cernunnos.
God of life and death.
Germination and dieback.

Lara: uh ...!
I am Lara Croft.
I research ...

Cernunnos: I know very well what you want
young lady.
You are looking for Cupan Druid Riogh, aren't you?

Lara: Yes.
But if I bother you, I will happily
look elsewhere.

Cernunnos: I can give you this artifact
if you wish.
But two solutions are available to you to acquire it.
You can either sacrifice an animal to me, or ...

Lara: Either?

Cernunnos: Or you can offer me your virginity.

Lara: WHAT?
NO !

Cernunnos: So a sacrifice will be necessary.
Bring me the still warm heart of an animal
and I will give you the cup.
There is a tumulus near the moat.
You will find a dagger necessary for the sacrifice.

Lara: I guess I have no choice.

Cernunnos: And be very careful.
You must have heard of a bear nearby.


-----------------------------------------------------

Lara: Poor beast!
It must have knocked itself out.


-------------------------------------------------------

Viridios & Lara

Viridios: Aren't you ashamed to defile this tomb
with your dirty plundering presence.

Lara: And you are?

Viridios: I am the god Viridios.

Lara: My name is Lara Croft and
I am not a tomb raider.
Cernunnos sent me to
recover a dagger.

Viridios: What?
he's still having fun at that?

Lara: It was that or my virginity
if I want the Cupan Druid Riogh.

Viridios: It would have been easier
to offer him your virginity.
You would have been in pain for a few days but the cup would already be yours.

Lara: You seem to know something about it.

Viridios: HAHAHA !!
You have a good sense of humour.
It's okay, take the dagger then go away and
NEVER COME BACK.

Lara: Thanks.

Viridios: There is a wounded boar
in the castle ruins.
I'll open some doors for you to help you.


----------------------------------------------

Lara: That poor boar
has a broken leg.
It is in pain and is going to die.
We might as well shorten his suffering.

Lara: The stone ball should kill it.
It risks seriously injuring me.
But I'm ashamed of what I'm about
to do.


-------------------------------------------------

Cernunnos & Lara 2

Lara: Here is your sacrifice.
Now could I have the cup,
please?

Cernunnos: The cup is in Tír na nÓg.
Go and get it if you want it.
