/i dont dont like grubs/

-The other side-

The knight sees himself at the edge of a large room filled with platforms

He jumps straight ahead and heads for the closest one

In here he finds a grub who is muchly more aged than the one he first saw

The grub he saved, waved at the knight innocently

As the knight was about to leave

The grubfather threw 10 geo on the ground

the knight picked it up as he left

he checks every passages he finds

First being a mossy area with a fairly huge, protective spiral creature

its shell is rock hard

And an spit that can be a threat to the knight for its acidity

the knight turns back and jumps fast towards the elder baldur

even with blinding nail skill its timing stood no chance

the knight went to the second room

the room was blocked by a door

But it was fragile

In here the knight encounter a wall with spikes

What was it protecting?

The knight switched both sides with his nail with insane precision for each spike

soon after he drops down

it was a room filled with spikes

he jumped to the first platform

he found no other places to jump on

so the knight looked down

gently stepping down towards the platform below

he makes a landing

dust sorrounded him after the small fall

and a prescence of a beast...

he jumped towards the next platform and finally past the area of hazard

the knight walked with no signs of insecurity or fear as he was walking towards a beast's den

something jumped out of nowhere and let out a screech

A weird shaped beast with two keen claws

the knight stabbed it in the eye

the beast stood back and spit orange fluids

that filled the place

the knight noticed that the fluids evaporate as soon as contact is made

he aimed for its side to remove its claws

with his speed he can dodge the fluids fluently

CRKKKK-

the beast screamed as its claw was removed

after that the beast soon shoots out the fluids from its side where it was cut off

The knight soon only hit the beast on the other side

The beast turns around which hits the knight from behind

The knight was slouching as almost everything was leaking

and the mask's condition

The knight runs in recklessly and jumps and makes a flip as the claw was swung

the knight swung his blade as he was in the air and gets into a stance

and the knight lands headfirst with a stong stab to the beast

the knight jumps back and starts slashing with blinding speed from all sides

The beast falls and the knight jumps as high as he can with leaking void everywhere

and kills the beast from his mouth

the knight focuses as soon as he can an went forward

as he was about to finish

The mawlek started getting desintegrated with its own acid

and a shard appears

as soon as the knight touches it

it became a part of him

he soon walks forward and sees a fake wall

As the knight broke it he found a bug across the side

He let down his stance after seeing his eyes

the knight walks forward

and stands infront of the bug

The bug greeted him

Hmm? Ah, hello there. Come down to explore these beautiful old ruins? Don't mind me.

I've a fondness for exploring myself. Getting lost and finding your way again is a pleasure like no other. We're exquisitely lucky, you and I.
I'm a cartographer by trade, and I'm working on mapping this area right now. Would you like to buy a copy of my work so far? just 30 geo

The knight handed out all his geo

cornifer gave his remaining geo

The knight picked it up and turned back

cornifer raised his hand'

Oh, by the way, I haven't introduced myself have I? Yes, I should apologise for that. When you spend a lot of time by yourself, with just your own thoughts, you forget the niceties of conversation.

My name is Cornifer, and I've always loved exploring the world. Why, when I was first hatched I wandered off immediately, leaving my brothers and sisters and poor mother behind!
That's why as soon as I could I moved to Dirtmouth with my wife. A huge, unending Kingdom to explore right on our doorstep. Who could resist?
Anyway, I'll let you return to your travels. With a little luck, we'll meet again. Be safe and farewell!

The knight continued forward and went left ..
