Are you Afraid of the Dark?

[Marin]

Below the Academy are caves filled with many ruins, picked through plenty by scavengers and archeologists. But for those seeking more, there are still carved stones to examine, walls with text. And ever so often, a well kept secret.

"Huh." A figure stood in front of a door, discovered through a hidden crack in a wall that had been overgrown and a rock placed in front of it. One good eye examined it's make, pressing a hand gently to it only to feel the sudden build up of heat. Drawn back, it was obvious this door was trapped. Instead, he would hold up a lantern to to check some writing beside the door, narrowing his eyes at the strange text.

First I was Broken,
Second I was afloat in the Sea,
Third I was dragged a Mile,
Fourth I told to Believe,
Fifth I was made a Beggar,
Sixth I witnessed my Burial.
Who set me free?

The words seemed confusing for the moment, one pondered it's meaning until it snapped, the first word was context for the last! Chuckling at his own cleverness, the Figure would press a hand to each letter as it came to him, exerting Mana as each one began to light up. "B... E... L... I... A...L-" He stopped as he pressed the last one, eyes wide for the moment before a mechanism was heard, the door slowly sliding open as he turned, his lantern but a match against the darkness that would obscured the inside. There he stood, gazing in... so very certain something gazing back.

"Oh Hel..."
