The Forbidden City

266

With your Magical Power of Sorcery, you are able to free the giant’s mind of the control that the slavemaster has over him. At the cost of 1 WILLPOWER point, you extinguish the light of the jewel around his neck. It is a Mind Gem and, with the fading of its power, the giant returns to true consciousness. As he does, he turns and deals the slavemaster a killing blow. In turn, you raise your Staff and shear through the master link that holds the other slaves in chains. With a cheer, they break away from the battle.

If you wish to take the Mind Gem from the slavemaster’s dead body, mark it as a Special Item on your Action Chart. The Mind Gem is worn around your neck. The giant offers you his thanks before turning to charge into the battle. You follow close behind.

Turn to 276.
