Perils of Adventure Ch.01 - Silke

... they found it.

In those first few moments after rounding a bend in one of the bigger hills and laying eyes on the entrance to a large cave, Silke thought that portal beneath the earth was the most wondrous thing she had ever seen, a true answer to her prayers. If only the thief had known then what lay within the girls may well have chosen to weather the tempest out in the open. In their ignorance, though, one by one she and her comrades broke into a sprint, not coming to a stop until they were through the cave's mouth. While the others were still doubled over catching their breath and shrugging off the heavy packs they had carried all day, it was Keire who first raised an alarm.

“Um, girls? Come look at these,” she called back from where she knelt some twenty paces into the cave.

Gradually, each of the huntress's traveling companions straightened up and trudged over to see what was concerning their scout. It was hardly unusual for Keire to serve as the party's voice of caution, but never before had the other five been so reluctant to heed her counsel. A mistake they, and one among them in particular, would soon live to sorely regret. Still, they weren't about to ignore her entirely so before long they were standing in a small cluster peering down at a patch of dirt that had collected in a dip in the cave floor.

“That doesn't sound like anything I've ever heard of,” Estelle's tone was cautious, her eyes rising to peer deeper into the cave.

“But it does sound scary...” the faint voice of Avaya Silverlight added. Silke couldn't help but roll her eyes at that admission. The priestess was pleasant enough company and potentially a literal lifesaver thanks to her powerful healing abilities, but she was also a coward through and through. If the thief was in a gambling mood she might well have wagered good money that Estelle's little adventure was the very first time Avaya had ever set foot outside the safety of a temple. It was a wager she would have lost, though only by the barest of margins.

“I'm sure we can handle whatever made those, if they're even still around,” Silke crossed her arms stubbornly in front of her nearly flat chest. “There are six of us and we are not going back out into the storm over a few old footprints.”

“I agree,” Estelle nodded after a long moment. “We can handle ourselves. And look around, this clearly isn't a natural cave.” That declaration was enough to set the other girls to ...
