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...

^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ Jump on my back and reach the top! Athene wished she could, but it just wasn’t possible. Her foot was full and thoroughly stuck in the crevice. As she spoke, the brute was momentarily silent before coming up with a new plan. I am not going to leave you, Athene. I am going to get your paw unstuck, but it might hurt a bit. Scream if I hurt you. The brute’s jaws clasped upon her stuck limb and pulled, but the leg wouldn’t come free. He continued each time, and each time a wave of pave rained over the fae’s limb, his teeth bruising her tissue and the crevice scraping the skin off. But she remained silent, her own daggers biting upon her lips until they drew blood in order to try to bit back the screams seeking to escape from her vocals. The water continued to rise and she kept thinking that there was no way that she was going to survive this. This was her end, the end of her life. But then the was a gentle release when the brute push her leg and pulled at the same time and her leg was free. Now, jump on my back so you can reach the hole. I can jump from here, but you must hurry. If you don’t move yourself, I will throw you up there. The choice is yours. Normally, nimble and lithe Athene would have been able to leap up to the hole from here but her hind paw was so mangled at this point that she couldn’t put much weight upon it so it would be almost useless in terms of power for leaping. So, instead, she leapt upon the brute’s back, using it as a stepping stool. Gritting her teeth, she leapt upward, but because of the uneven power she went slightly sideways. Her unsheathed daggers scraped at the rock until she found footing she could grasp and made it solidly onto the main cavern’s floor. She anxiously looked for the brute and relaxed when he pulled himself upward, clearing looking for Athene. But the main concern was the water – but the rain clearly began to let up and the water began to subside. The femme limped her way to the brute’s side and rubbed against the under part of his chin. His height compared to hers made it the easiest place to rub against. A gentle growl grew from her chest, a content rumble at their state of safety. A gentle croon of thanks. Perhaps a bit of affection lingered there as well, but because she couldn’t see his face clearly in the dark, she left it at that, and left his side, trying to get her orientation. Though they had yet to find the staircase that he had originally been searching for, she needed to see sunlight once more. She needed to clean her wounds. ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ |
