They couldn't get a break could they? Not only were they stuck in a area Thal never wanted to return to but now they couldn't even leave the same way they had come in. Well least there was a bit of good news with all of this they had found the sword and much to his delight the egg was no where to be found. not that such luck meant a damned thing in his book. For all he knew the thing could have still hatched and... yeah the rest of that could be saved to explain later if such a thing actually happened.
"Theres always another path... if it leads out or not is another story." Making a path was out of the question that was certain. So instead they had no choice but to walk. Another thing he hardly missed about his hometown area... the tunnels. The endless tunnels that lead no where. Odds were that you'd never get out of them. Though they had to have better luck then that right? Well maybe not but still he wasn't just going to stand there and worry that they'd never get out of this forsaken place.
After a few hours though it seemed the tunnels really were endless, even with marking the directions they had covered to dead ends they were running out of options. But it seemed some force was smiling upon them as they finally crossed a tunnel that seemed to lead to the outside. Oddly it didn't seem to be a tunnel as old as most of them, like in the more recent years it had been disturbed by something. Ask questions later.
Once they actually did make it outside of the cave system Thal had to admit he never thought he'd be happy to see day light. "Well.. that was fun lets not.. no lets never do that again." He had his fair share of being lost in cave systems and it was hardly a pleasant feeling that you were doomed to die because of a wrong turn. Though their troubles seemed to no be over just yet as they seemed to end up in a valley of sorts... a enclosed bowl. The area seemed untouched by anything as the wildlife flourished and moss covered the rocks closest to the cave they just exited.
Though to Thal's dismay there seemed to be similar markings to the ones back in that first weird cave they had stumbled upon years ago. A few overly worn and weathered signs near a path that was long over grown. This lead to what seemed to be a temple? more like ruins of a temple but still. He could tell by the way Mizuki was looking at it they weren't leaving here without investigating it.
