Capítulo 47: Into the Cave of Death!

Kaitlyn and Zell looked at each other and followed after their dwarven guide. The light of the torch barely illuminated the darkness within the cave. It was in stark contrast to the entrance they had experienced on the other side.

"Why don't you have this side lined with torches?" Zell asked.

"It is because we do not want humans to find us." Kilgon answered. "The other cave you entered was from the land of nonhumans, this path is a defensive vulnerability we try to keep it as dangerous as possible to deter the humans from exploration."

"Much like my forest." Kaitlyn said. "Did the humans give these caves a name? They gave the forest I am from the name Forbidden Forest."

"They call them the caves of death." Kilgon laughed.

A loud shrill cry was heard from the depths of the cave.

"What was that?" Kaitlyn asked.

"Death." Kilgon joked.

"That is not funny!" Kaitlyn said, stomping her foot. "At least Zell will protect me."
