The Cavern of Secrets holds much more than you can imagine. Once a forbidden place, the ban on entrance has been released...yet, is it a good idea to enter?
Once a great battle had been fought in this cavern, against a dark beast that had once - and still might - dwell here. No one knows where he disappeared to, but there are rumours...

I don't know how long I stare into the puddle. At some point, it's like the face in the puddle is winking at me, signaling to me that nothing is as it seems. I just continue to stare, a deep sigh dripping from charcoal colored lips. At some point, I'm going to have to give up and give in, let the darkness have me for good. But for now, I fight for my sanity, fight to stay alive, fight for whatever small part of me that's left that wants a real purpose in life other than killing and torturing innocent wolves. At some point, I start to feel another presence in the room with me. I glance down toward a dark corner, not seeing nothing there but knowing that someone's here somewhere in the darkness. My ears flicker alertly, listening but only hearing the tink tink of water hitting the cavern floor. Instead I let my nostrils do the work, inhaling deep and that's when I find her intoxicating perfume. Akina. My eyes blink a few times, unable to comprehend why a wolf like her would be in a dark place like this. This isn't where she belongs. She belongs in the sunlight with all the other pretty things. My skin crawls, feeling a sort of anticipation in the air around me. Then I hear the soft pawprints hitting the floor behind me. Taking in a sharp breath, her scent continues to fog up my mind until I can almost feel her breath on the back of my neck, something sweet and fragile, something to be protected always. She stops behind me and asks a question, a question that has me back staring into the midst of the puddle before me, squinting a bit as if doing so will erase the true image from sight and bring forth something more hopeful, something beautiful, like an image of the wolf that stands behind me. My ears fold back and my voice flows out deep and filled with sadness. I see only a monster. A monster with no right to live, let alone be in the same room as an angel. I don't know what got into me or why I say the things I just said. They flowed as natural as a waterfall from my lips. And I know that I don't regret them. I feel the air rush by as she takes a seat. My skin tingles, electricity in the air at her close proximity. I close my eyes for a moment, seeing only the same comforting darkness I see when they're open here. I try to focus on my breathing, slowing it down, making it more natural, not the shallow breathing that seems to be the only way I know how to breathe when Akina's in the room. |
