You wait for a moment and then nod, showing Helga that you are going to help her. The giant seems to be happy as she continues to smile, waiting for her release.
You move closer to Helga, but releasing her is easier said than done. The stocks are a lot bigger than you and even if you could open them, there is a giant iron lock that prevents you from doing so.
"Do you know where the key for this iron lock is?"
With the little movement she has, Helga uses her index finger to point into a direction. As you turn your head, you see that she is pointing at that giant man, who is wearing the key around his neck on a long, thick chain.
"You've got to be kidding me. Even if I could lift a key like this, it will be impossible to remove it from him, especially if he shouldn't wake up. I mean I shouldn't wake him up, right?"
Helga shakes her head indicating that you shouldn't.
"Thought so. Well what am I going to do then" you think loud.
Then you remember that there is a spell to open locked doors. A little modification of the spell and it could work here as well. But you never were good at modifying spells and not that good at casting them either.
Still what else can you do?
"Let me try something" you say and start to mumble a magic formula.
After you are finished, you point your hand in the direction of the stocks.
A red flash emerges from your fingers and moves to the lock. Afterwards a loud cracking noise can be heard, and then... Nothing happens.
