@wisdomchosen sent: 040, exploring the depths of a mysterious cave. - if ur still taking these for wylan c:

It was like a metronome, the way the drip of infiltrating water rhythmically fell in drops. Each tap against the otherwise sublime surface of the subterranean pool catching the quiet air and ushering it away. No, this place was not dead, nor was it unforgotten.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

The pool. The polished stone. The scattered stalagmites. It was close... but there's something else about the cave that only gets louder in its quite painting as one got deeper. Something or someone. A youthful imagination paints stories that could create a mural against the cavern walls. A thief's hideout? A monster's den? A secret passage for agents of some secret order?

Tap. Tap. Tap.

Each drop brings the knight's gaze from one spot to another. An eager investment into this uncharted territory. Not that he lets such excitement show freely on his features. Only his eyes might betray him- dark green hues that caught a glitter not granted to him by the lamp which he held aloft.

Still. This was. So much more fun and engaging than guard duty. Or patrol duty. Duty. Just anything with that word, really.

"..Zelda?" He stops, noticing that the other noise he had been tracking had shifted and stopped suddenly. Her steps, that is. Goddesses forbid if he kept turning to look back at her instead she might suspect he was worrying or something. "You see something?"
