What little light entered the cave illuminated a circular expanse roughly forty feet in diameter. Various stalagmites and stalactites littered the cave opening. On the far wall, next to the trickle of water, ran a slight incline of stone heading off towards oppressive darkness. On the right-most wall, before the rising incline stood another small opening. A faint hint of orange light danced on the walls from wherever the small passageway led.

As he pressed on he noticed two dark shapes lying in the road ahead. Careful, he advanced. His right hand on the pommel of his scimitar, ever ready to draw it at a moment’s notice.
