Arthur pushed through torns as the wind blew on the back of his neck. He only had the moonlight to guide him out of this dense forest.
Arthur was now regretting straying from the group and straying from the set path for bush walkers.
Determined to find a way out, he continued on, trying not to slip on the damp ground caused by the storm howling up above.
Looking up, he saw a massive castle that towered before him. It was a brick castle with hundreds of windows. The entrance was giant with gargoyles surrounding the roof. Trees surrounded the area, swaying in the wind. The castle was shrouded in darkness, with a single orange light cascading out a high window.
Wanting to investigate the light, Arthur entered the castle.
Every floor board creaked under each step he took. The rustling of the leaves outside prevented him from hearing anything inside the tall rooms of the castle. Looking around the room, he saw that every piece of furniture was run down and extremely old.
While exploring the darkness, a loud bang came from the floors above, causing Arthur to jump out of his skin as goosebumps formed, making his hair stand up.
His heart was beating twice as fast while he was frozen, not wanting to know what's happening above.
