?「???????」?

As I got closer and closer to the light I got more tired.

Why was this cave/tunnel so heckin long??

I stopped halfway and sat down for a bit to rest.

I've been walking here for what feels like days, but I don't actually know how long.

I might rest here for an hour.

What time even is it?

Ever since I have been in this cave I haven't been able to see the sun.

I hope I can get back to camp on time-

I sat there for a good few minutes, closing my eyes and trying my best not to fall asleep.

I didn't, luckily, so I got up and started walking again.

The light got closer and closer.

As soon as it got close enough for me to see there was an opening, I started bolting my way there.

I was curious okay?!

I made my way there, arriving, to find yet another wall of vines.

At this point, I had trust issues with vines, so I moved them aside to see a large clearing.

It was an island surrounded by water, with a bridge connecting them.

On the island, there were large trees that were all surrounding a wizard tower.

The wizard tower was a cylindrical shape, with a triangular roof. The walls were a nice off-white. The roof was a royal blue. At the foot of the tower was a brown door.

The wizard tower was pretty tall, and was very eye-catching in my opinion, because of its size.

The cave I was in was technically a hole in the wall so I needed to use the vines and slide down to the bottom to get to the bridge.

After I slid down, then I washed my hands in the river because those vines were so slimy and gross.

After I dried them and I crossed the bridge.

I was pretty sure I was gonna fall- the bridge sounded and looked really unstable.

It kept creaking!

But never judge a book by its cover- that's kind of dumb considering this thing is a bridge but whatever.

I swear it almost broke- I had my doubts but I made it across.

When I made it across, that's when the bridge broke.

"Are you kidding me?! How the hell am I gonna get back now??" I said in distress.

I had to cross the river again later to get back, but there was no longer a bridge.

What now I have to walk in the river? The current is gonna throw me! And what if there are some piranas there? Or some kind of thing that would like to have a taste of me?

I sighed in defeat, I'll figure this out later.

I continued to walk to the tower, still worrying about how in the hell I was gonna cross.

I walked and kept walking, looking at the floor, trying to think of a way until I bumped into the tower door.

Now I feel dumb- why was I looking down the entire time-?

I knocked on the door, no one answered.

I tried to open and it was unlocked.

Should I go in or wait for someone to come in? "Hello?" I said as it echoed in the tower.

I hears a faint "Come in".

Was I hearing things?

I assumed someone was on top of the tower so I came inside and closed the door behind me.

I entered to find a long flight of spiral stairs.
