Bab 52: Hornvein: Tunnels II

Lucian walked through the stream, which was only a foot and a half deep, making his way through the narrow tunnel he barely fit in. 

"Hm..." He said as his drakeling sat on his shoulder, "I wonder what that shadow was..." 

There was something intriguing about exploring a tunnel, to Lucian, at least. He didn't sense any danger at all and was confident things should be fine. His drakeling that was posted on the exit hadn't sounded any alarms, which he would definitely feel. So to Lucian, everything should be fine. 

He was quite curious about reading more of the journal he just found but there was something about the shadow that made it his priority. He could read the journal later, right now he wanted to see what that was. 

Suddenly, he came to another cavern, this one had fewer crystals that illuminated it and was a bit smaller. Lucian was hit with a strange stench coming from this one, however, and he immediately covered his nose.
