Relic

By Zeus he is right, as you move the tip of the relic in another direction the blue light fades, but as you hold it toward the temple, the light becomes stronger.

“Glad I brought the damn GPS!” States Wren, sarcastically.

“Ha! Poor, beautiful Wren. All your technology fails here in the wilds where only the gods of the ancients reign supreme!” Raoul proclaims.

“Ugh...”

You hold out the relic and walk toward the temple. The light grows bright and even seems to pulsate as you reach the entrance of the looming, overgrown temple. A great stone door blocks the way in, yet you notice a triangle shaped relief in the center of the door, indicating that perhaps this strange relic is the key to the door. It cannot be this easy you think.

As the group walks toward the door over fallen stone blocks, a deafening howl is heard from all sides. You all freeze from the shock of the howl. The howl from earlier, only so so close.

Emerging from the shrouded jungle, a black being, creature, steps forward. It reminds you of a gorilla, large in size with long muscular arms, only these arms end with blade like claws. The creature is wearing a witch doctor like mask, adorned with bones and shark teeth. It is skull like, terrifying.

Another emerges from your opposite side, and then two more join them. This must be the shadow tribe that kidnaps men that wander too deep into the jungles. One unleashes a gut wrenching yell, communicating with the others. They move in towards the group, pinning you to the stone door. No escape. Two options. Fight or attempt to open the door with the relic.
