The cave was really dark, so I tried to illuminate around with my cell phone's screen.

The first thing I noticed was the man the old man sitting on a stone. He was still as rock, so I didn't dare to move a finger.

"I guess you have come looking for the second part of the Royal map" The man smiled a little.

"H-How do you know?" I asked.

"Im an old wizard" He opened his eyes to look at me "I know everything happening around me."

"Can you give it to me?" I wondered "The second part of the Royal map?"

"I can, but I want you to think about it," He said seriously "You can die sooner and a more horrible death than in fifteen days." He warned "Go back home."

"I don't have a home," I looked away "I have a house."

"Then go back to your family." He insisted.

"We are strangers living under the same roof, nothing else..." I whispered.

"But yet you didn't hesitate in saving your mother." He said.

"I guess that is just who I am" I shrugged "Anyway,I do want the second part of the map."

The man sighed "Then I shall give it to you."

The man got off the rock and handed me a folded paper.

"Don't open it until you are out of here." He smiled "Good luck."

"Thanks." I said.

As I walked out the cave, I decided to open the second part of the map at my house.

I jumped in the water and swam to were the boat was docked.

I pushed myself out of the water, again, and asked a guy that worked here for a towel.

After wrapping the towel around me and drying off I walked to the street and took a cab to my house and decided to open the second part of the map at my house.

I got off the cab and paid the driver.

After opening the door and walking up the stairs and locking myself in my room I opened the part of the map.

You sailed the course and you prevailed,

Now you must search at the grieving

place, where the dead await.

The tomb and the next part are there.
