Subject: [KQ] Rhoan: [factory] What the...?!!

	Rhoan quickly followed the other questers down the trapdoor as fresh
reinforcements started pooring down from above.  The scene he moved into was 
unlike anything he had ever seen.  Creatures that seemed like drawings or
paintings moved around the room.  In one corner a bunch of strange creatures, 
in miniature since Rhoan guessed that any one could fill the room, where 
fighting some robot.  Among these creatures Rhoan noted a flying lizard fire
some sort of beams, a rhino/dinosaur type thing firing exploding stones, and
a giant stone ape.  Strange, they reminded Rhoan of stories he heard as a 
child.  Back to reality.

	Amongst these strange images, Rhoan noticed something all too real, 
a hulking, skull-faced warrior standing over one of the lost comrades with a
two-handed sword ready to stike a killing blow.  Rhoan instantly went for his
hand-axe,but found it was missing from its place at his side.  There was no 
time to run up on the attacker, so Rhoan threw the only thing he had 
available, his battle-axe.  With a great swing, Rhoan flung the b-axe in 
the direction of the fighter.  It flew through the air, losing momentum and
height rapidly,  but still finding a mark.  Just as the huge warrior was
bringing down his sword, the axe hit the back of his leg.  The angle was
bad and much of the force was gone, but still it was enough to cause the 
skulled warrior to lose his balance and miss the deathblow by a scant finger-
length.  The warrior turned to face this new threat, leaving the unconscous
Marcel on the floor.
