(Dwarfs' Mine – Silent Woods)

A dark spooky forest is what I see after the teleportation effect subside. Gnarled trees decorate the forest and only silence can be heard. No animals sound can be found, not even a small sound from insects that should be residing within this forest.

A shiver run down on my spine as a dark and powerful aura covers the forest and the mine as well. My magic begins to get work up to protect me but I subdue it to not cause any more troubles. I look back and see that the trio merely seeing the surrounding while saying to themselves.

"So, this is the Dwarfs' Mine... Long ago, this mine was flush with magestones." Deuce comments by recalling the histories of the mine.

"Urgh... Who knows what lurks in there now?" Grim asks in a disgusted tone after seeing the condition of the mine.

"Look, I can see a house. Let's see what the people there have to say." Ace points at a cottage that tucks away in the forest beside the mine.

The four of us starts walking towards to the cottage while I just expanding my range of magic sense to detect any dangers that may threaten us.

(Dwarfs' Mine – Dwarf Cottage)

A squeaky sound emerge after Deuce opens the front door while hollering: "Hellooo? Is anybody home...?"

But nobody answers.

"Must be empty. It looks like it's been abandoned." Deuce steps inside first after receiving no answers and the three of us follow him behind.

"Bwah! I got a spider web on my face! Ptchoo! Ptchoo!" Grim yelps after his face got covered by spider webs.

"Look how tiny these desks and chairs are. Did children live here? One, two... Seven! It's like a clown car in here... YEOWCH! What was that for, Sans?" Ace rubs his head after receiving a slap from me.

"There is a reason this place called a dwarf mine, you dolt." I snidely answer while looking around the interior of the cottage.

"When the mine was flourishing, this house must have been a lively place." Deuce observes the state of the cottage and reflects about how the cottage used to look like in the past.

"Well, this isn't getting us anywhere. If we're gonna find a magestone, it'll be inside the mine. Let's head inside and take a look." Ace pipes up an idea of finding a magestone inside the mine.

The rest of us agree at the idea and start to walk out of the cottage and towards the mine.

(Dwarfs' Mine – Mine Entrance)

"You wanna go inside THERE? It's pitch black." Grim yells in fright after seeing the mine entrance.

I'm incline in agreeing with him since, I can feel a dark and vengeful aura emitting from inside the mine. My magic even began to hackles up in preparation of assisting and protecting me. I look to the side and see that Ace wears a smug face at Grim.

"What, are you scared of the dark? Pathetic." Ace mocks Grim for being scared.

"Myah?! I'm not scared of anything! I'm taking the lead. You all follow me!" Grim recklessly takes charge of us after being belittled by Ace.

I just let out a sigh at these two antics and follow along.

(Dwarfs' Mine – Interior)

With Grim leading us into the mine, we can see that the mine is all dried up of magestones. This can be explained by the lack of magical energy filling the interior.

"Huh? Hold up!" Deuce suddenly halts us.

"What now?" Ace asks in irritation after being suddenly stop.

"There's something there!" Deuce confidently answers about seeing something.

"Myah?!" Grim yelp in fright after spotting something from the darkness of the mine.

"Hee hee hee hee! Visitors! The first in ten years!" "Do make yourselves home... You can stay forever!" A sudden high pitch voices coming from a pair of ghosts that appear right in front of us.
