YArpg- Follow the goblin
From Create Your Own Story
You are taken to another concrete room, this one considerably brighter. A bench lines one wall, supporting a few strange-looking tools, a scroll, and... your father's helmet! Oh, how it feels to be so close, yet so far away...
The goblin catches you staring. "Ah, yes," it begins. "The item you were trying to steal. My foolish employee stowed it away, marking it as mundane armour, but these runes clearly indicate that it is much more unique. In fact, now that I think of it, I was going to try it on. Apparently, it has empty ownership magic..."
They pick it up and inspect it.
You recall reading about magical ownership. If a sorcerer draws much of their power from an object, they might enchant it to only react to their usage. Any others who attempt to use it will generally become cursed or simply die.
If this goblin claims ownership, the helmet will no longer be your father's, and you likely won't escape this place alive anyway. But is now really a good time to rebel?
