There's also a small shrine room with an altar. Altars almost always have the option of praying before them. Sometimes they bless you, sometimes they summon demons based on how sophisticated they are (i.e. if they can tell you're bad guys killing their followers).
"As you approach the altar, you start to feel confused. Strange, staticky images skim across the surface of your mind, trying to get in. Do you kneel before it?"
Hells yes.
"You kneel before the altar, and immediately regret it. Your minds are bombarded with a host of bizarre images, of demons, and fighting creature and evil eunuchs. You manage to stumble away, before the images drive you mad. Your heads still spin."
Haha, I guess we shouldn't have expected anything good from these crazy people. We're lucky the craziness of the visions didn't dumbfound my spellcasters and make them too stupid to cast spells.
On through the dungeon, there is still a bit more to explore. There's a long maze and plenty more monks. I bet they have some good loot, there's been a few empty chests along the way so there must be something good at the end, right?
Well, there was a nice bit of armor, weapons and gold, but the real gem was this:
"Disclaimer: With the exceptions of the phrases "Feisty Slap of Pain" and "Tae Kwan Leap" (which came from other sources) all martial arts terms/concepts were taken from actual Hong Kong Kung-Fu movies. Or the TV series "Kung Fu."
"Disclaimer, Pt. 2: Remeber - friends don't let friends watch Kung-Fu movies. They'll make your brain hurt."
Pure awesome. This whole dungeon was a giant easter egg making fun of kung fu movies. That is what I love about this game. It packs an amazing game system along with plenty of miniature awesome twists.
