. Asura couldn't snap his fingers so he whispered "Hadroz daar lahrin do kii pahvoth. Bo ahrk aam zey. Quietly gevoth wah ahrk kiibok. Hin sole nuft." As the last words were uttered a small slug colored of ash appeared in Asura's hand and coiled around his finger draining the color from it. He flicked the slug off and watched as landed softly on the moss on the Golem's shoulder and slither between the cracks to connect to the inside. Asura would use this slug to follow the Golems and it was a backup plan if he was caught.
He watched as the Golems scanned the area but couldn't find him "Fucking leave already. If I sit here any longer, I'll grow roots for fucks sake." Asura said getting ticked off slightly. Soon after that thought the golems turned and started lumbering towards the way they came from. They had stolen Asura's belongings and he was going to get them back but he wanted to see who made them, if it was a person that is. He followed them from above by using his nails to jump from tree to tree and hold onto the bark. He saw that he was going to have to look for another way to follow them as they started crossing the marshlands that are notorious for their number of Threaders. Asura quickly slid down the tree, his claws making long cuts all the way down. Asura hit the wet ground making it squish. Asura just realized that he alerted the golems and quickly vanished and appeared behind another tree. The golems heard the sound and turned around, their glowing golden eyes made them seem more foreboding. The air of the marshland was wet and damp and stocked full of insects that buzzed around annoyingly.
Asura waited behind the tree, dealing with the bugs that flew and rested on his skin, determined not to make a single sound. The golems turned and continued walking, their large body's shape being segmented by different shape rocks connected by a thread of magic allowing them to move around slightly. Asura followed them for a while making as little sound as possible before they stopped at a cliff face. Asura thought they were going to climb and was ready to start climbing up after them. He was stopped when he realized they were just standing there. Asura watched them for a few minutes before the stone peeled away revealing a tunnel. The golems walked through and vanished and Asura ran to catch up. The stones slowly started to close the tunnel. Asura quickly ran and slide through the final small opening that was left before it shut completely. Asura noticed his eyes were going to give him away, knowing that snapping would echo down the cave he whispered "Miinro do vulon. Vos zey bodiis hin suleyk. Bolaav zey ofan do koraav." And his eyes stopped emitting a glow and turned pure black but allowed him to see in the cave just enough to see clearly. He looked and saw the gave entrance was completely covered in magical markings. He walked further along following the golem's footsteps. He continued to follow the footprints and came across a cross road, the footprints still head straight but he saw a light blue light come from one of the other ways. He looked and saw a massive fungal walker making its way through the tunnel. It had two legs and four arms, each arm on different sides of the leg that grabbed the stone to pull itself through the cavern. The mushrooms on its back were white and blue and were covered in small hairs. It had two giant black eyes and a mouth full of sharp teeth that would bite into anything it could and drink the liquids that came forth. The fungal walker made its way towards Asura and made clicking noises before trying to grab him. Asura quickly dodged and ran into the tunnel that the golems did. The tunnel was too small for the colossal fungal walker all it could do was reach through the tunnel with its long arm. Asura misjudged the length of the arm and it grabbed him. The three blade tipped fingers wrapped around Asura and dug into his back. Asura quickly raised his hands and jabbed his nails deep into the flesh of the walker's hand and ripped it like paper, he then took the fingers and pried the walker's fingers from him. Asura fell down to the ground and the walker pulled its hand to its mouth and extended a long slender tongue and started to lick up the blood from its wounds and tried again with its other hand to reach Asura.
Asura turned around and continued to follow the footsteps before coming to a door frame. He stepped through the doorway and couldn't believe his eyes. Inside this cave, deep underground was a mansion. A mansion that was like a normal mansion except it was rundown and plant life that had no business had these far underground. Asura thought that their roots would be normal but the full plants no. Asura was startled by a noise from his left. He looked and saw a small golem patrolling the halls. Asura was forced to run and hide, he hid throughout the mansion trying to find some living thing that wasn't a golem or plant. He ran into a library and the door slammed and locked. "Oh for fucks sake." Asura mouthed to himself. The door slamming shut notified a golem sentry that was in the library with Asura.
The golem ran to the door making a loud thumping sound with each drop of its stone foot. Asura quickly ran and hid behind a bookcase and heard the running stop at the door. The lights from the golems eyes glimmered in the darkness as he looked around. The golem started to search down each lane of bookshelves. Asura had to get out of here quick. He noticed a vent big enough for him to through, he silently ran up to the vent and pried it off. He quickly got in and propped the vent covering against a vine on the ground making it look like it hadn't been open. He quickly crawled down and dropped through a rusted hole in the vent that led to a small crawlspace behind the walls. The crawlspace was big enough for Asura to only side step all the way down the crawlspace. He kept moving down the space in the wall until he came across a hole in between the boards that made up the wall. He looked through the hole in the wall and saw the ash slug he had made earlier on the table turned upside down and a magical device was studying it. He pried off the boards and slid his way through the hole.
He stood up and looked around the room and noticed that this was the only room he saw that wasn't fucked with plants. He noticed there was a finely bound notebook on the desk that was next to the ash slug. He flipped through the binder and noticed it was filled, absolutely filled, with finely detailed notes on how to create different types of weapons. He continued to flip the pages of the book and each page was incredibly intriguing. As he kept reading he found a page entitled masterpiece with the name in fine print, Ascalon. Asura couldn't believe his eyes, he thought this weapon was perfect "This is fucking amazing. If I could meet the person who made this, I'd fucking praise them." Asura said still looking the page up and down and noticed a name in the bottom corner. "Solgir Vashnaz. " Asura said the name but then heard a whish of air behind him and when he turned around he was hit directly in the face with a large root, knocking him out.
