SciFi and Fantasy Art: Hoshi and Corvus Versus the Golem

It was already bad enough that the two hadn't eaten in two days.  But just their luck, as they stumble onto the only fruit-bearing tree for miles around, they discover the remains of a broken golem who still guarded an old, empty treasure chest nearby.

The fight was hard, but they both gave it their all.  Hoshi fought like a demon, slowly chipping away at the monster's rock hide.  Corvus used his one good arm to cast magic, healing Hoshi when he was hurt, entangling the monster's legs when he could.  He wished he knew attack spells other than Earth ones!  Those had no effect on the monster!

This scene was taken from a game I played with Davy, one of our friends.  Steve, my husband, was running the game. We both had lots of fun playing the two amnesiacs, who had woken up in the middle of a battlefield with no memory of what had happened.  For all they knew, they might even have been on opposing sides of the battle!  They had headed together for a city on the other side of the desert, where they thought someone might be able to help them regain their memories.  Along the way they became fast friends, and even when they learned that they had been enemies before, they decided to forget the past and remain allies.  Together, the two worked to rebuild the city that had been destroyed where they awoke, the city Hoshi's father had ruled.

It was a great game.
