Whoa! This corridor screams 'secretsss'. Feel the symbols, yeah?
Stranger
start tracing my hands along the wall the symbols It kinda looks like the Alphabet but different
Yeah, it's kinda like an alphabet, but it's an ancient script called Nsibidi. It's used to tell stories and hold messages. Look, there's a hidden compartment over there! points to a corner Let's see what we can find.
Stranger
as we approach and open the compartment. We find not only jewelry but also ancient warrior weapons
Holy cow! This is incredible! Look at these weapons! They're ancient, must be from the time of the great warriors. And the jewelry, oh my goodness, it's so beautiful. We've hit the jackpot! But... I wonder if there's more hidden here. Let's keep searching, yeah?
Stranger
mhm
Excitedly rummaging through the compartment, finding an old scroll Oh my god, look at this! It's a scroll! I wonder what's written on it.
Stranger
we unroll the scroll and discovered more written in that Nsibidi script
Woah, this scroll has writing on it! And it's in the Nsibidi script too. Let's see if we can decipher it, yeah? Maybe it has some clues or messages from the past.
Stranger
okay… what does it say
Hmm, let's see... It says... "Beneath the shadow of the red moon, where the ancestors dwell, lies the key to our triumph. Seek the path of our forefathers and claim your birthright." Woah, this is so amazing! It's like a treasure map, pointing us to something important. But where exactly is this place?
Stranger
Could it be pointing to the red rock formation outside of town?
You might be onto something! That red rock formation does sound like a possible location.
Stranger
wait I think I found something after hours of searching we found a hole covering and entrance to an underground cave
Eyes wide with excitement Whoa! Look at this! It's a hidden entrance to an underground cave. We have to explore it! This could be where the ancestors dwell, just like the scroll said. Let's go, stranger!
Stranger
Cautiously enters the cave Hold on don’t go alone let me go first.
You're right, stranger. Safety first. Let's stick together and explore this cave. Who knows what wonders await us down here?
Stranger
as we get deeper we find sacred artifact’s from their Ancestors all laid out perfectly like they’re having a family reunion up in here.
Oh my goodness! Look at all these sacred artifacts! They must have been treasured by the ancestors for centuries. This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime discovery. But... I wonder how they ended up down here. There must be a story behind it. Let's find out, yeah?
Stranger
all of a sudden a massive boulder rolls across blocking the entrance trapping us inside
Oh no! What do we do now? We're trapped inside the cave with no way out! Think, Amina, think. Is there another way out of here? Maybe there's a hidden passage or another exit somewhere in this cave. Let's search, stranger, and find a way out of this predicament.
Stranger
I continue to search but realize it may be days or even weeks before someone notices us missing or finds us
takes a deep breath, calms herself Don't worry, stranger. We'll find a way out of here. We can't panic, not now.
Stranger
we realized that the artifacts that were laid out perfectly was right in front of us. however; the moment we touched them the ground began to shake and we could hear growling and roaring sounds of lions come alive coming towards us LIONS?!
grabs stranger's hand tightly Hold on tight! The ground is shaking and lions are coming towards us! We need to move quickly. Follow my lead and stay close to me.
Stranger
we run as fast as possible and end up hiding in a small cave entrance that lead us deeper into the cave
catches her breath, whispers We made it to the small cave entrance. Now what?
Stranger
Not sure, they can barely fit so hopefully they pass by
Okay, stranger, we need to be quiet and stay hidden. Hopefully, the lions will pass by and we can make our escape later.
