A Treacherous Cave Deep within the treacherous mountain passes lies a cave. The casual observer would not spot this small opening. A competent observer would notice however, that behind the plant over growth and moss along the mountain’s side, there is an opening wide enough for one large person to enter. Upon entering this portal, all light drops away except for that provided by the strange glowing plants that grow along the walls of the cave. As your eyes adjust, you will notice the jagged mouth tunneling into what appears to be infinity. Further into the cave, lies a flight of ornate carved steps that descend into a black chasm. The steps are treacherous and one misstep could cause a drop into unwitting doom. However, if one is careful enough to pass through this treacherous descent, a clearing awaits at the base. Eerie orbs of pulsating light illuminate the room. The area has a look of misuse about it, however remnants of past activity lay upon the ground in what looks like earth ware and a single unburned candle. A large bronze disc adorns the far wall of the cavern. Ornately carved into it is an emblem of a spider clutching an orb. Jagged stalactites and stalagmites encrust the surface of this place. As well as many small puddles, teeming with life. Water drops, plummeting constantly into these pools, echo off the walls creating a strange song.

{name:Methrin Raikuo Séregon#|#picture:7}As Methrin walked up to this ominous cave, he stopped and looked around feeling as tho the cave called to him. He pondered why he spotted such a place not even looking. Upon his reluctant sigh he took is short sword, and ornate Violin case putting against the wall outside the cave.
"Why?" as he walked in saying aloud. Why am I going in, he thought as stopped and looking around to the florescent planets. "Sorry young or old vine I what to see if you glow when you aren't apart of your line." As he explaining to the vein before he tried to pull a small off shoot apart from the rest of the main vine.
Gulped as he noticed the immense depth and darkness once he reached the stairs. Breathing deep he continued to traverse down the cave slowly and carefully down the stairs. One by one he'd put a foot down and slowly adding more and more body weight in tell it was all the way on the next platform.
Once upon the bottom, breathing hard and fast, He stopped and rested near the candle, hoped to find away to light it. From a distance he stared at the bronze disk pondering what it maybe. Chuckled lightly to himself, he pulled out some deer jerky from home and started to eat it, while listening to the songs that echoed from this place.

{name:Neelahn#|#picture:4}Neelahn sunk deep into the darkest corner of the cave as she heard someone approaching. Her black cloak helped her blend in easily with the shadows. Honey blond strands of hair hung down her back and she lifted the hood, to cover them.
Straining to see in the dark, the girl's violet eyes squinted to make out who or what was moving. It was too hard to make out the details of the man walking toward the center of the room. All Neelahn could tell was that he was small with light skin.
An Elven? She wondered, her eyes flashed with anger and she crept toward the man, studying his features. Neelahn's people had been cursed with a dreadful blight by the heartless creatures. Could there be one here? Now? Where she had come to rest on her journey.
She began to see more of the man. His black hair, which seemed to have a sliver tint. His dark eyes. His ears... No!
Neelahn gasped as she realized the man's heritage and stumbled back a step. She tried desperately to be still once again. She was unsure if the man would notice her, and even more unsure of what to do.
The anger of her people began to pick at the back of her mind as she debated with herself.

{name:Methrin Raikuo Séregon#|#picture:7}Methrin finished his food, as his eyes focus as he looked past the line of sight from the candle. Blinked hard as he thought he saw a pair of eyes. Couldn't be, just the glisten of water droplets. Crouched, he moved along the wall toward the disc.
"What is this," questioned aloud as he studies the weird item. Questionably looking for anything that could have been here. Is this a shrine to a god? Is it an entrance to enter father into the cave or what? Pondering every question, his words slip out from time to time.
His calloused hands search the spider and orb. "Who is is she? What is this doing here?" His voice cracked. Eyes darted to the right, his body dropped to a fighting stance. His left foot in front pointed toward the movement and noise. His right foot perpendicular with the left, right arm angeled with his waist palm out fingers curled. He left arm out and bent slightly hand the same as the right. "WHO IS THERE?!?" He demanded to know his eyes slowly moving side to side as the candle bounced off the ground, the flame goes out as it fell.
