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...

It was quite dark in the cavern, the heat almost leaking into the ground. It was hot and cool inside the cave, and a giant brute listened in on the silence and the words it had to say. He looked for the staircase he was searching for, but to no avail. He was still on the rock solid earth that had been shaken from one of the sets of staircases that he had stood on. He was very well looking for a staircase that was hidden among the shadows and the depths of the cave that was bestowing something mysterious upon the eyes that were looking to see. Perhaps those orbs would be found right now, on a very hot day in perhaps the beginning of spring. Maybe, perhaps, the answer to something bigger would be found that day among the ranks of the indoor caverns. The darker brute stood his ground, squinting his pools of ice so he could try to see what he was looking for, but was stopped abruptly when a figure bumped into him. He turned around, looked at a fae that was before his eyes. He heard her lyrics ring out in the cavern and there was a moment of silence that followed. The fae didn’t give her name. Zev thought silently about that for a moment. She had said that she would give him her name when she found the time was right and that he would have to earn the honor of knowing her name. Was it also a unique trait that she talked in rhyme? He dipped his head slightly, acknowledging what she said. “That seems fair enough.” He thought silently about how he was going to answer her second question. Was she willing to look for something the brute wasn’t even sure existed? He hoped he wouldn’t sound crazy. “Well...a couple of week ago I was here with a friend of mine. We searched through these caverns and started to look for something in here and really just mess around and get to know each other. I found... a staircase of sorts; a chain of earth sticking out from the side of the wall that led to the top of the ceiling. The fae followed me up there, and when I reached the top, I knew something was different about this place I was not intending to find. I think that there is something up there, because I didn’t get to search since my friend disappeared further into the caverns. Of course I had to follow her and made sure she came out safely; I am not the kind of wolf to leave others behind. And now, I am back to investigate.” He looked around, trying to look for something to keep his orbs on but found nothing in the darkness but more shadows. He looked back down to the fae, trying to see her pelt. Perhaps it was a cream color streaked with gray and black, but he couldn’t be sure. The brute felt quite awkward standing there and he knew for some reason that the fae was not going to say anything unless she wanted to or if he asked a question. Why not just cut to the case? “If you would like, you could help me look for this staircase that I am seeking and I feel it would be wonderful to be in the company of a lady on this adventure.” He wasn’t trying to be flirty with that statement; just trying to get a reaction from her and see what she said. |
