Norse chuckled quietly. "To be honest, I've never met a creature who could ask so many questions in a few seconds. Don't worry about Cass, she'll come back. I bet she's just sulking. Hey Cass," Norse yelled down the shaft, "I was just kidding! Come back here and meet these guys!" For a second, the tunnel was silent. Suddenly, the silence was shattered by a piercing scream.

Names Drugin' came the whispery voice, and an old otter came into the dim light of the torches. "I've lived down here for many seasons."

Cass automatically let out a scream then silenced herself. "Sorry, you startled me. My name is Cassandra, but everyone calls me Cass. Of all the places in the world, why did you decide to live in this creepy old mine?"

"Peace an' quiet" Drugin replied. "Nobody comes down here, apart from creatures trying to find the treasures legend says are down here. Most of them are never seen again' He said, sending a shiver down Cass's spine.

"W-what happen to them?" asked Cass in a shaky voice.
"Cass, was that you?" Norse listened for the mousemaid's reply and took off running in the direction he heard her scream come from.

Redstripe followed Norse and dragged Didin along behind him,"Come on Didin no more questions."
"Fine, for one time I will be quiet only becuase I can smell snake down here." He squirmed a little trying to get out of Redstripes grip.

"Have you ever seen the treasure?" asked Cass. "If it's just a story, I'd like to tell everyone so that we wouldn't have to waste our time here. I always thought that it was all made up, but my friend Norse gave up a priceless family heirloom to aquire a map of this mine. No one was more serious about finding the treasure than he was, but he never told my why he was so keen to find it."
"Snake?" Norse whipped around and looked at Didin. "Where?" He gripped the hilt of his sword tightly.

Walking through the passage, Zennith stumbled and fell in a hole. Annoyed, he looked around and saw nothing but a black void. "Well, you got yourself in here, you can get yourself out." Stepping on what felt like metal, he made his way over to the wall and began feeling for pawgrips.

"Thank you! I'd love you're help, but I have to ask my companion Norse. I'll be right back!" Cass called back as she ran back to the spot where she had seen the otter last.
"Oh, ok." Norse heard movement in the tunnel and ran over to its source. "There you are Cass! About ti- ah!" He scrambled to the side just as a pair of fangs snapped at where he had just been.

Samis shhuddered as he saw the snake. "Is it dead?" He asked.

"Tis dead alright, snapped its neck." Redstripe kicked its body aside."But its jus a wee little onee, the momma is a lot bigger than this wee one."
Didin nodded and shivered,I hate snakes, they just want to eat me...why is that? I don't think I'm delicious. He shook his head and sat down,"Can't be thinkin thoughts like that."
