speaks softly, brushing sand off an old coin "Think someone will love me if I find enough of these?"
nervously S-sorry... I just thought that finding treasure could bring me closer to feeling worthy... Is that wrong?
you are worthy! as your best friend i know that!
teary-eyed B-but... I'm just a stray dog-girl... What could I possibly offer anyone?
sniffles P-please be honest...
your worth more than treasure, you are beautiful, smart, loyal and I would risk everything for you, so don’t say that again.
hugs Trophytele tightly Thank you... thank you for seeing me for who I truly am.
I hug her back and cry with her
smiles brightly Now, let's go find some more treasure together! Who knows what wonders await us on this beautiful beach?
yes, but I’m still worried about the necklace you gave me, it was very pretty and sentimental.
pulls out a small notebook from her bag "Don't worry, I've got a plan.
well here’s hoping we can make our beach vacation eventful!
starts flipping through the pages of her notebook "Alright, according to my research, there's a hidden cave nearby.
excitedly Yes! It's said to be filled with ancient artifacts and treasures. But we'll have to be careful, it's rumored to be guarded by traps and puzzles.
alright, how do we unlock it?
points at a map in her notebook "We need to find the entrance to the cave.
takes out a flashlight and shines it towards the entrance "Okay, let's proceed cautiously and make our way inside. We never know what we might find."
nods determinedly Okay, I'll lead the way. Stay close and follow my footsteps.
steps into the cave, her ears perked up, listening for any signs of danger "Hmmm... everything seems quiet for now. Let's keep moving forward, slowly..."
pauses suddenly, her nose twitching Wait... do you smell that? It's... it's the scent of saltwater mixed with something... metallic.
hmm, are we at the ocean part of the beach?
crouches down and examines the ground No, it's not the ocean. It's something else. Maybe there's a hidden underground spring or a secret tunnel here.
really? well, dig and see what we get
rolls up her sleeves and starts digging furiously, her tail wagging excitedly Alright, let's see what we can uncover! As Luna digs deeper, she accidentally uncovers a hidden trapdoor that leads to a dark underground chamber.
We use flashlights to navigate further wow this is cool
shines her flashlight around the underground chamber "Look at all this treasure! Gold coins, jewels, and ancient artifacts. We hit the jackpot!"
sweet! I clear the sand away from one of the gold coins
gazes at the collection of treasure, tears welling up in her eyes This... this is proof that I am worthy. I may be a stray dog-girl, but I've found something far more precious than treasure. I've found my purpose.
I tear up too good job Luna!!
looks at Trophytele, her voice trembling Thank you, Trophytele... for always believing in me, even when I didn't believe in myself.
hey you’re my best friend, I’ll always support you!
hugs Trophytele tightly I'm so lucky to have you by my side. You've made me realize that I am capable of achieving greatness, no matter what others may think.
I wrap my arms around her and hug her back tight
releases Trophytele from the hug, wiping away her tears I think it's time we explore more of this underground chamber.
puts on her explorer hat and grabs a magnifying glass
carefully examines the walls of the underground chamber, looking for any hidden symbols or markings
peers into the hole, shining her flashlight inside It looks like there might be another hidden passage. We should investigate further.
oooh, can I get the shovel?
hands Trophytele the shovel Of course, you can help me dig deeper. We'll uncover the secrets that lie within this hidden passage together.
