The Elder's Warning


The Elder's eyes snap open wide. "The Old Dark is inside the village," she whispers. Her voice shakes.

She presses a small jar into your hands. It is full of golden honeywax. "Feed this to the candle," she says. "But you must cross the dark hall first."

You look up. The hall is very, very dark.


Run fast through the dark hall with the honeywax.
Ask the Elder to come with you.
Go Back

? Going alone is faster — but having help might light the way.
