The desert goes dark, as if the sun itself has disappeared. After a moment, you feel the ground tremble. Before you can move, it falls from beneath your feet. Welcome, to the Cave Of Horrors.
You see a faint light in the distance, and a great feast around it. Behind you is an even fainter light, with a poor, starved man sitting next to a campfire. Even calling it a campfire is a disgrace to all campfires.
The man tells Macrog that this is the Cave of Horrors, and anyone with a bad soul who stays in here for 23 jyms(minutes) will be transformed into their inner selves. He had fallen in here 10 magis(years) ago. He pulls out what little he can to offer, which is only a small penny. He tells you of a dragon here, but not like any others of his kind. He was greedy, and transformed by the caves, now guards 4 of the greatest wonders of the world.He also guards the only exit to this place, as the stone itself is made of a material not even the god-pharaoh could pass. He has a basket, which he tells you fills with bread every 20 hours. He practically begs you to let him come with you on your journey.
Macrog turns to look at Aois, shuddering as he contemplates turning back into his old self. "Hey! Let's go!" He yells. "We're bringing him with us!" as he points to the man.
As you begin to leave the campsite, a strange spirit like creature attacks you, spear at the ready. He quickly runs through the fire, extinguishing it, and then turn around, ready to attack.
Aois has his experience with both friendly and hostile spirits, as he is one. He unsheathes Wuqi once more, but instead of charging it, he stands in his battle stance, motionless.
Aois waits... and at the last second when the spirit is about to trample him, he sidesteps, and holds his blade which slices across the spectral stallion and slices off the rider's leg. The leg disappeared in a blue wisp of flame.
The rider falls to the ground, and mutters a something that only Aios understands. "I like cheetos." The horse races off, free of the rider who had cursed it for so long. As you leave the campsite, following Varetti's instructions, you come across the gate. On it, these words are inscribed: Only one may enter here. The diamond in the rough. Varetti then tells you that he inscribed that a while ago when he was bored.
Aois questions the riders sanity, then continues with the current task at hand.
Aois, a wise and weathered warrior, realizes he is dead, and doesn't count as one, since he is bound to an infinite amount of generations deceased ancestors. With this realized, Aois concludes that both he and Macrog (@SNAPcreator7 ) can enter.
The doors slowly start to open one you decide to enter, as if they read you mind. They scrape against the ground, and Varetti makes a gasp at the incredible material on the inside. As you slowly enter, you are met by a knight in shining armor. "Adventurers! How good to see you. Will you join my servants to help me, Vantos the Great, kill the dragon?"
Aois looks at the knight. He notices a somewhat reckless air around the man. "What will make us believe that you are a well qualified knight? I've trained in grueling situations, and never once complained how dirty I was." Aois paused. "That is a very skillful shine there, on your armor. How long did it take?"
Macrog steps over to the man, looking at him and checking for anything suspicious. "How can we trust you? Your armor appears to have not seen battle, yet you call yourself Great. Where are your servants?"
