The First to Arrive

Mountain of Eternal Winter

A land so cold it feels as though everything has been frozen solid. Snowstorms rage without end, and the world lies in deep, silent darkness.

Even the warmth of a single breath is stolen away by the icy air. Still, I pressed on—step by step—toward the massive prison looming ahead.

This place was built for those who would cast aside their fear of Dragons and seek true wisdom.

As I drew nearer, the door creaked open, almost as if it had been waiting for me.

I pulled a trial seal from my cloak and stared at it for a long moment. Was I truly ready to face this trial? What did I hope to find inside?

A chill wind swept past, cold as ice. And then—without another thought—I stepped through the door.
