The Story of Swim6

Chapter 3: The Gold Mine

The gold mine looked more industrial, more like a factory. There were a couple stalls with merchants outside the mines, but Swim6 didn't care and went straight in the mines.

There were giant stairs leading down into the mines, in front of which stood a man, The lazy miner.
"Hey there pal!" He exclaimed, "I seem to have lost my pickaxe in the mines! If you find it, you can keep it". Swim6 instantly went to find the Lazy Miner's pickaxe, ignoring all the coal, iron and gold ore on his way. He ran past the 10s of people mining, and there, it finally was, the Lazy Miner's pickaxe. It was made of iron, but it's tips were heated enough to smelt iron and gold when mining it. He tried it on some ores. Despite it being slower than the gold pickaxe, it still had the ability to smelt certain ores.

Swim6 gathered and mined for several hours, until he finally had the toughness requires to enter the area called "The Deep Caverns". It was a dangerous area, with many dangerous monsters which would be out to kill him. He stepped on the launch pad, which propelled him into the air.
