Avalon Reincarnated

Shortly after leaving the Avalon city the kids are walking along and chatting to each other about the enemies they might face.

"The only thing I'm worried about is the bandits I hate fighting perverts and its as if all of them are attracted to me and I don't know why," says Diana who is fixing has cropped the top of her suit accenting her incoming bosom.

"It might be because you are so fetching, young lady." An old man surely in his hundreds walking right behind them says so. His wrinkled skin is not the only thing old and weathered his staff seems more like a tree than a normal staff.

The whole group separates preparing for battle, "It has been a while since someone managed to sneak up on me," says Greta who vanishes into the shadows of her friend. Cho is on the frontline.

"Carefully now, I'm only here o talk the world is much wider than the sky you wouldn't want to find yourselves running out of the air without even learning to fly." The Old stands firm even though his back is crooked he seems to tower over all the kids, the pressure is substantial even for Kwanda.

"Okay, we understand how can we help yo...Mister?" Kwanda says to the old man while trying to analyze him, there is nothing particularly dangerous on the man even his tree (staff) is as normal as his tattered rags.

"I have something for all of you if you would be so kind as to show a map." The old holds out his hand and appears right before Kwanda.

"What did you just do?" Shouts Daniel!

"Oh ahh what!" says Greta, Cho, Dani, and Rose.

"I did not see a thing" exclaims Diana to Daniel.

"Neither did I!" Kwanda says as he takes out the map he had received early from his hammerspace in his ring.

"I have marked on you map the location of ancient trove only those under the age of fifteen who are mages can enter, I hope that you will be able to clear the dungeon and open a training ground for the younger generation. Before you bypass this place I will also let you in on a little fact, this location was stolen from Nolan by me, it's useless to me but I do believe it might help you in your journey."

"Why help us you don't even know us." Says Rose.

"That's true but I do know one of those that you saved, this is repayment for saving my granddaughters life the rest is up to you." The old man starts walking away from the kids who look at in shock. Each step he takes carries him more than five hundred meters.

"Kwanda, that old man is from a hidden power," says Greta.

"We can assume that they have have had their eyes on us for a long time, I knew we would meet one someday just not this day. Says Diana

"I know right that was kinda scary I could barely lift my arms," says Cho.

Kwanda then throws the map to Daniel who shouts out in excitement "I told you that place is special."

"What place?" asks Diana as she moves to see the map.

"I found an area about a year ago with a dense magical field that is barely detectable but it displaces a large area about a days walk away along our route." Daniel declares to the group.

"The only reason I did not say anything because the diggers( company archeologist), still have yet to find the entrance..." Kwanda is middle of explaining when Rose says

"The same diggers I moved to the coast to investigate the possible temple?" Kwanda responds by nodding

"Well, it does not matter I don't see why we should go there anyways what if it is a trap?" Greta asks to follow mates who are keenly observing the map.

Daniel says while rubbing his nose "We were going there anyway to see for our selves with all of us there I was pretty sure we were going to figure something out now it much clearer we just have to go through the path the old man has shown us."

"We should be careful though the hidden powers in the world are monitoring us if we go we could invite danger upon ourselves," says Kwanda who has been reminded that even as strong as he is the world if full of monsters.

Diana then says "Let's move out then we can at least see if this is all a trap after all if a hidden power were to attack us for no reason they would also invite disaster upon themselves because all the other hidden powers would move against them.

"Yes! Let's go!" Cho jumps up and starts walking down the road towards the path pointed out the map.

"Wait for me," says Greta as she pulls Rose along. The rest of the group follows until they come upon the hidden entrance shown on the map.

Daniel walks closer to the three trees the runes are all clearly visible and rather easy to read. "Let me try I think I can open this it doesn't seem to be super complicated."

Daniel begins to mold mana releasing all-around he carefully activates the runes in a specific order. The process itself is not draining just reliant on him properly reading the runes to produce the entrance.

Daniel is almost done when he says " Do not run in when the gate appears there is a warning I'm still trying to decipher it can possibly provide a clue as to what is inside this place. daniel then works carefully after the gates appear.

The canopies of the three trees all form a single gate in the middle. Daniel waves his hand over the arch of the gate and in a dazzling display of Avalonian runic. The runes read in bright green and red.

Here there be Dragons!
