Dropping down into a cavern, Qrow lights a flashlight he had on his person. Looking around, he could see the cavern continuing down deeper.

Pyrrha: "Qrow! What can you see down there?!" He hears from above him as he has jumped down a deep hole.

Qrow: "It looks like Ren was right. These ruins go down go deeper than we thought. You keep exploring. I'll meet back up with you."

Pyrrha: "Alright, be careful."

Qrow began to walk deeper into the cavern; he could tell the caves were natural formations. This was the 4th day of their expedition through the Emerald Forest. Ren had learned through his extensive research that the Emerald forest was a temple built to house the Crown of Will. So they had begun their search through the entirety of the forest and its ruins.

Qrow: "Getting real spooky vibes from this."

Heading towards the structure, the stone changed to a more carved pathway. Reaching some steps, he begins to feel a low pulse of energy. Walking up the steps, noticing that the steps were made of black metals. Reaching the black spiked covered door, he pushes the door open as it slowly gives way. Inside the structure, he sees that the interior is built like a cathedral.  Large columns are reaching up to close to 20 feet in height. The walkway stretches to a significant alter. The floor is decorated with red carvings. Along the walls are tiles that seem to be organized in a manner that creates a picture. The picture being of a prominent figure standing before a sizeable firey landscape.

Qrow: "Uuuh...this can't be good."

Hawk(mental): "But it's not something that should be feared." Qrow jumps back in surprise to see a red ethereal version of Hawk walk by him.

Qrow: "Hawk?! How the hell are you here?!"

Hawk(mental): "Mental projection. Something I used when I needed to speak with Pyrrha. When I got back with the relic, Ren informed me of your expedition, so I began to perform this technique until I found you and...this place."
