HK: 5 Vessels

Nice try pal, but I open all Youtube links here in another tab in case they're rickrolls

I look in both directions.

You win this time…

To the west you see a mossy tunnel of sorts, leading somewhere.
Below you is a sign with the symbol of some creature upon it, and a station of sorts.

I go into the station.

A toll machine with a symbol of a stag and a bench are present.

I rest on the bench and check how many Geo the toll machine requires compared to the amount I have on hand.

The toll machine requires a fair bit more Geo than you have...
Or you could just try breaking it and the stag gate with your nail :P

DOWN WITH THE GOVERNMENT!

I take a test whack at the stag gate.

It holds firm, but one of the bars is slightly bent.
Perhaps you could rig the toll machine...?

I strike the bent bar as hard as I can.

It bends after some effort. Not enough to go through, but enough to see.

I strike it once more.

@sansbot roll 1d20

:game_die: 13

Some bars are visibly bent.

I strike the gate 3 more times.

@sansbot roll 3d20
