Previous Episode: “Welcome to the Acoustic Asylum”
Episode II
After encountering the Gatekeeper, and gaining new strength on the guitar… you find yourself inside of the Acoustic Asylum desperately looking for ways to escape.
You Hide in the Shadows and Walk Quietly Along the Eerie Corridors
Stumbling upon a door marked “Eric Clapton’s Backstage Area”…
You cautiously push it open, hoping “Slowhand” himself might offer help.
You step into the room and you hear the familiar riff of “Layla”.
And as your eyes adjust, you witness a figure hunched over a guitar.
The strange figure is playing the legendary song, but…
He is playing it so BADLY it
Hurts your ears
Slowly, the guitarist turns, revealing NOT the face of Eric Clapton…
…But the menacing snarl of the Gatekeeper!
The door of the room slams shut behind you.
You’re trapped now.
“Fool, you’ve been tricked again,” the Gatekeeper says as he rises with more menace than a Black Sabbath riff.
…And with a guttural roar, he rages…
“You’ve escaped me for the last time, Fool!!!”
Like a samurai wielding his sword, the Gatekeeper then raises his guitar above your head.
He lunges towards you with his guitar, ready to strike your head.
