A fierce battle wages in a remote cave in Avernum between a dozen goblins and four anonymous adventurers. Suddenly, the adventurers' torch goes out, plunging the scene into almost total darkness.

Adventurer #2: "Hold up everybody! I need to light a new torch! We can't fight properly in darkness!"

All of the adventurers and goblins fall still and watch Adventurer #2 attempt to light a torch (rather unsuccessfully) with flint and some lichen. Sparks fly, but to no avail.

Adventurer #2: *striking flint angrily* "Come... on. Light, you worthless..."

Adventurer #1: "Let me try."

Adventurer #1 also tries, but has similar luck. He then turns to Adventurer #4.

Adventurer #1: "Can't you cast a light spell, or a Bolt of Fire?"

Adventurer #4: "I ran out of spell points hacking through the last three tedious fights."

Adventurer #3: "And don't bother asking me, 'cause my deity hasn't blessed me with heavenly fire yet."

Adventurer #1 continues striking the flint, cursing under his breath. Finally, after three hours of trying, he lights the torch.

Adventurer #1: "Yes! I did it! Guys, look, I-"

Adventurer #1 looks around and notices that his comrades fell asleep out of sheer boredom. The goblins did not. Seeing their chance, they charge.

Adventurer #1: "Crap."

The brave and noble adventurers were never seen nor heard from again.

The End

The four adventurers finally meet the requirements before they go after Rentar-Ihrno.

Erika never showed up to help them, she was doing her makeup...but the adventurers managed to get all the vahnatai, and summoned creatures.

Rentar-Ihrno: Fools! I am invincible in this thingy that I have!

Adventurer 1: Uhh...what is happening to the lights?

Rentar-Ihrno: Uhh...I want you guys to see eachother when you scream in agony.

Rentar-Ihrno attempts to light a torch. She then summons a slime to assist her. The torch dissolves. She then tried a cockroach, which just pooped on it. Next, she tried a troglodyte. It lit the match, but it set itself on fire. The fire went out immediately. Next she tried a giant, which decided to eat it. A golem blew it up.

She then attempted to light it herself again. She failed. Then she gets an idea and asks Adventurer 4 to light it. He was successful. Rentar-Ihrno looked at herself and saw several spears and a fork stuck inside her.

Rentar-Ihrno: Didn't I say that I was invincible?

Adventurer 3: Umm, this game made it so that if we hit you enough times...that you will go down.

Adventurer 2: And it is just one more hit!

Rentar-Ihrno: Crap.
