Excuse us Mr borogrove but I can explain everything. It was all a big accident. But first let us introduce ourselves.
Lovely giveaway idea as always, Doc, thanks! Was it you who did the mouse and dog and baker story thing a while back as well? :D

I'll jump in later, story seems to be a bit hectic right now.
-Step aside, dimwits, I'll do the talking!- said Plum

Clearing her throat, she took a deep breath and pulled out a boombox from her bottomless bag- another gift from the old witch. As she turned it on, a sick beat started and the borogrove looked intrigued. And so sang Plum:

-Now this is the story all about how my life got flipped and turned upside down, and I'd like to take a minute just sit right there, I'll tell ya how we ended up in this snowy shithole of cavern.
Iiiin west Erathia, born and raised, on the purrground is where I spent most of my days, chillin' out, maxin', relaxin', all cool, and all shootin' some b-ball outside of the school when a couple of mages, they were up to no good, started making trouble in my neighborhood. I got in one little fight and my mom got scared and said "you're moving with your auntie and uncle in Hanmare".
I whistled for a cab and when it came near, the license plate said fresh and it had a dice in the mirror. If anything I could say that this cat was rare, but I thought nah forget it, "yo homes, to Hanmare!"

The beat came to a grinding halt when Sarkozy turned off the boombox, yelling:

-Plum! Can we get to the point?!

-Fine, you tell the story then!

Wait, OP, are we allowed to post more than once? If not, I apologize for doing it (and everyone feel free to ignore this part of the story if that's the case!)

Liliana steps forward.

"I'm sorry Mr borogrove. My friends can be annoying when they... do their things."

"Hmm. You sound reasonable. What do you want from me?"

"We are here following a guidance from a witch. To break the curse that runs deep in our family. And when we arrived at this chasm, we tried a spell and end up calling you. So, perhaps you know something about... "

The borogrove suddenly cut the talk angrily

"I'm not going anywhere near that cursed treasure of yours. Never again!!!"

I'm in. I see 2 copies of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Game of the Year Edition there so if I'm lucky perhaps I can win one of them
I'm in for Candle!

Lilliana was right. All this time, from the very beginning of their quest, a malevolent presence has been observing their every move, listening to every word. But even she did not know, could not know, the nature of the thing that followed them.

A darker shade of black in a shadow of a rock. A foul stench in a stagnant puddle. A false note in a birds song. In all these and a myriad other faults in the world around them, it followed. Hungry, but patient, with patience it was forced to learn through centuries of starvation.

This was it's chance. It would not waste it. It shall wait for just the right moment. When they are at their most divided, most conflicted. Already it has seen the signs. When Plum called the others "dimwits". When Liliana with barely conceled condescension called her companions "annoying" (and almost something much worse). Those were but the taste of the feast to come, and shall sustain it until that time.

For the companions shall fail, and to fail is to crack the world.

Bump to get this on the first page
I'm in for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt GOTY.

From the tips of our whiskers we know what that dark presence is. Yes, the legend of the bodiless Mousomancer is old, very old. One could say it's the most famous story to scare little kittens. Elderly folks of Erathia don't really believe in it or at least pretend they don't. In many taverns once they had too many groggy milk they start to whisper about him...

bhrigu: Will it be okay with the OP if I decide later whether I want any of these games and if yes which ones? :)
Just be sure to post which games you are in for before the competition closes a week on Saturday.

I see most people are entering for D:OS and The Witcher 3 (now 3 copies) and nothing else which will limit your chances of actually winning something. Add more games to your list for a better chance of winning, they are all great.

Waiting to see who takes us past the chasm and where to.
I will try to continue the story

...and the worst thing of this legend, if somebody will feel his whisper or breath, he'll never go himself. It will continually be pursued to bring to mind. Liliana heard this legend from a young age. Thinking about the bodiless Mousomancer is terrified her, especially knowing that the only way to get rid of him is...

Im in for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Game of the Year Edition or Divinity: Original Sin - Enhanced Edition.
I'm hoping for one of :
- Brigador: Up-Armored Edition
- Baldur's Gate II: Enhanced Edition
- Descent, Descent 2, Descent 3 + Mercenary

...only known to a certain kind of witches clan, The Sagarahayang. Old proud and dwindling, they are notorius for their one for one policy. You can ask them for one thing, they will ask you to do one for them too. Sometimes it can be as easy as telling one funny story. But there are stories that one unlucky chap have to gave his body-parts for their wisdom.

Sure, why not - I'm In! for Vaporum or X3 Home of Light

Plum, a bit winded from a a spot of dance and some righteous rap, sees the problem with fresh eyes.

"Hey, look - Hubert might not be able to spell but I bet he can't fly either!"

Plum steps over the edge of the chasm. Liliana hisses, Sarkozy chee-chees. Even the borogrove shrieks... and Plum lands three feet down from where she stepped into open air.

Someone finally noticed that "Hubert wuz hear" had been written on the opposite side of the chasm, 3,000 feet up and NOT upside down.

"I read about this bridge in my Dad's diary!" Plum excitedly says. "So, we going to find this treasure or what?"
But as the adventurers start to walk, the borogrove screech to the trio, making them jump started in the air:

- How you dare to walk away, just after summoning me!? Where are your respect?

Then Sarkozy promptly take off his hat gently, put it in front of his breast and say...

P.S.:
I'm in for these games, in the following order:
Divinity: Original Sin - Enhanced Edition;
Transistor;
Age of Wonders 3.

"Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn"

Borogrove fumes with rage at this display of Sarkozy's arrogance. Borogrove's massive ego is hurt from the words of this mere mortal. He vows revenge.


P.S
I will be in for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Game of the Year Edition
Sorkozy feels the air around him stir up into a wind as the borogrove huffs in anger. His eyes focus on the cats, having just landed on the hidden bridge. Sorkozy quickly realized what was going on and shrieked as he sprinted to join his companions. Just as he made it to the other side, the borogrove shook the bridge violently.

"There!" he shouted, pointing towards a crevasse just big enough for them to fit through. Once inside, they heard the rage of the borogrove as he flew away in anger.

"Where are we now?" said Lilliana, trying to understand what she saw in front of them.

I'm in for:
Vaporum
Age of Wonders 3
Divinity: Original Sin
Candle

Thanks! Fun giveaway even without the games :D.
"I don't know about you but I need to rest. I'll just lean on this wall for a while. "

As soon as Sarkozy touched the wall, one stone moved inside the wall and there was a loud noise.
