Relic

The snarling skull masked beings are approaching fast, no time to attempt to face off with mythological monsters right now! You turn around quickly and place the relic into the relief. A rumble is heard and the door begins to slowly crumble open, spewing chunks of rock from some sort of ancient mechanism.



The familiar sound of Baileys shotgun is heard as he fends off the creatures from attacking you. They seem to be blown backward by the blasts, but it does not seem to be killing them. They are not bleeding from the holes in their black bodies, provided by Bailey. One approaches and takes a swipe at Raoul, nicking his cheek. He clutches the small wound on his face screaming in anger.



“NOT MY FUCKIN FACE YOU MOTHERFUCKER!” He slams his machete into the chest of the creature, then pushes it away, throwing the machete like a tomahawk, the blade pierces the skull mask of the shadow being, embedding it into its head. The creature wails as if in agony, but does not produce any blood. It stumbles around confused but is still very much alive.



Removing the relic before the door slides completely away you dive into the temple, the rest of the group following. Once inside the confines of the temple, the shadow tribe ceases their attack. You are bewildered as is the rest of the group. They just stand in the doorway, gazing at you, through glowing moonlight eyes. On a whim you hold out the relic to them. For whatever reason this startles them, slowly they recede backwards into the misty jungle.



You and the team stand there for a moment as silence surrounds all things. After what seems like an eternity of stillness, you feel secure in the fact that the shadow tribe will not enter this place, for whatever reason. Turning around, you see the main temple room is cavernous, with many winding paths, going in multiple directions, labyrinthine. You point the relic towards some of these paths, the light goes dim. There is a center room with another stone door. Pointed this way the relic goes bright again. Well it seems like you know which way to go to reach the final destination but perhaps there is something else hidden in these other path ways. Treasures Lucas may not be aware of, that perhaps you could keep all for yourself? Tempting.
