You wander the Sielje region for hours looking for the mining pass entrance that runs through Mount Chug-chug. The perpetual snow and wind bite at you from all sides. You blow into your hands in a vain attempt to warm them as you wonder what possessed you to walk all the way to Valeria Chateau.
"I suppose it's good exercise," you rationalize, trying to convince yourself that you're not an idiot for wandering the frozen wasteland without pants.
During your search, you find yourself squinting a lot, the glare of the sun bouncing off the freshly fallen powder. The entrance is not too far off. You pick up your pace, wanting to get out of the cold as soon as possible. When you finally reach the entrance, you notice that it is closed off, a sign nailed to one of the stiff planks used to board up the mineshaft.
"Danger. Beware of...?" You are unable to make out the last word. Whoever made the sign obviously did not have the foresight of using waterproof paint in a region that snowed all year long.
"Beware of what?" you say aloud, shivering slightly.
You attempt to pry the boards loose from the entrance but they're nailed in pretty well. It doesn't look like you're going to be able to go this way.
"Great, now what am I supposed to do?"
Do you:
a) Use the teleport orb (go to chapter 2)
b) Vent your anger before doing anything (go to chapter 5)
c) Take this as a sign from the guardians and go to class (go to chapter 4)
