At last, the amulet was mine!!! The power of a universe was at my disposal. Ah, so
drunk was I with visions of great and terrible deeds. What to do first? My tower
seemed unfitting for a would-be god. Something more splendid, more spacious.
Perhaps a split level...no, many levels...ten levels, that's it! Where to put this
magnificient edifice? Well, it should be somewhere away from prying eyes and
possible thieves, yet not to far from a food source for my hungry pets. Aha, I'll put it
under Trebor's nose, literally. I'll build it under his poor excuse for a Castle!
The very next day I started the major invocation. Everything went smoothly until I
keyed in to the amulet. I only opened a tiny conduit to it in order to provide more
power for my conjuring. What I got was a blast of raw energy that almost vaporized
me on the spot. It was a good thing that I had been working behind a shield. The
ground beneath the Castle was melted, churned, and twisted out like pulled taffy.
When everything cooled, I indeed had my ten level underground fortress maze,
although it was much wilder than I had envisioned. That was good, for the backlash
of that awesome force had completely obliterated my tower! More than somewhat
shaken, I Malored down to my new abode. I had barely tapped whatever lay within
the amulet, yet it had almost destroyed me. I vowed never to invoke it again until I
could discover how to channel its power.
