Temple Time

The ever-changing temple is pretty much our second home now. What’s more, Hannah is officially a hundred percent in charge of the machete. Seeing her sway it expertly as the branches and leaves waterfall at her sides never fail to make me smile with pride.

I’m getting way better than I thought I would at this whole business. And to think I used to hate History and Geography class. My thoughts go back to Mr. WhatsHisName’s class back in high school. I’m positive Hannah and I are living through more thrilling experiences than he ever did.

Especially seeing as Hannah can’t stop triggering the temple’s traps.

Fire doors.

Ominous golden gards.

Switches to activate.

It’s an adventure we happily march into.

We’ve never gone this deep into the temple. We’re ready for it.

In a small side chamber, Hannah finds a chest and she opens it, already ready for the treasures inside.

This time I solve the brass bowls puzzle without any major incident.

It seems the deeper we go into the temple, the most beautiful it gets. The vegetation is prospering down here.

One more flight of stairs.

One more trio of solemn guardians.

And finally, a very deep treasure room. It’s different than the previous ones we’ve seen. It’s colorful, and it almost looks like a place where people used to live. It’s not as intimidating as the galaxy-walled rooms from before.

Treasure!

It’s two wooden bases for relics!

And a benediction!

“I’m pretty sure I could assemble two full relics now!”

“Do you know what they’re going to do?”

“Nope, but I can’t wait to find out!”
