Rune Device

A mysterious field of

energy seems to surround

the mechanical device and

its power prevents you from

approaching the machine.

[

This seems mysterious...

Let me investigate.

As you follow the magical power, there's something wrapped inside the rune device.

You kick the energy

field with all of your strength. After absorbing the impact, the

field fizzles out with a soft,

gentle ''pzzzzzh'' sound.

With your

hand, you smash the energy

You smash the energy

field with your weapon

using all of your strength,

but you weren't able to

break down the barrier.

You probably need a more

powerful weapon...

You decide to leave

the machine alone.

You've acquired everything you need from this rune device.

After breaking the device, the exterior shatters.

The energy field begins to disappear,

and you see that a red object inside was the origin of the magical power.

- You acquired the powerful Red Key. -

Once you hold the key, a shocking feeling passes through your head.

You see an illusion of light...

You focus on the light.

Some letters begin to appear...

I've used the Gate Seal

technology to seal the gate

and the charm stones. Although

the seals are in place, I can't

stop worrying that they might

break in the future.

I can't relax when a, shall

I say, particular group covets

the charm stones and can easily

break the seals. Since they are

broken now, are many people hurt?

This tower contains strong

magical powers and much evil. It is

dangerous by itself, but I sealed it

because of one man's strong desires...

I wouldn't recommend to go futher.

You would need to challenge that poor

being, who I've named this tower after.

His soul still rests here...

Nobody believed me, the crazy scientist.

Though I wanted to keep this a secret, somebody

must get to know about it. That's way I created

this rune device, and hid this message.

Please show that my experience

wasn't just an illusion.

That's all.

The letters fly away in the form of a red key...
