IRENE: THE STONY FIELD

After getting the Scroll of Inifuss translated, Irene finished some shopping business with Akara. She replenished her supply of healing potions and sold Akara some miscellaneous items she had found on her adventures.

"I also found this +1 Firebolt staff," said Irene in the middle of a transaction. "I know it's practically worthless, but Aliza said you collected them."

"Oh, sure!" said Akara. "I'll give you 526 gold for it."

"526 gold!" said Irene. "I sold Charsi a +1 Firebolt staff just yesterday and she only gave me one stink'n gold piece! Son of a..."

When Irene finished her shopping, she and Aliza returned to the Stony Field.



After the Underground Passage and the Dark Wood, the Stony Field seemed almost quaint. These monsters weren't dangerous, so Irene and Aliza were able to quickly complete the circle around the Stony Field's perimeter.



They ran into one lightning enchanted skeleton boss, but like most skeletons, he moved slowly, so Aliza was able to take him down using run-and-shoot tactics.



Originally, Irene and Aliza had planned to use the same tactic on Rakanishu that they had used on Treehead, using the small corral in the Stony Field. However, as they were taking out Rakanishu's minions, Aliza took the opportunity to shoot a few arrows at Rakanishu himself. She was damaging him a lot with run-and-shoot tactics, and it became clear that they didn't need to do anything fancy to beat him. After killing his minions, they lead him into the corral, and while Irene stood safely outside the corral and fed Aliza a stream of healing potions, Aliza took Rakanishu down.



Irene and Aliza finished the clear of the Stony Field and opened the portal to Tristram.

What fate would befall them there?
